A ton of value, some removal, easy to win with, a lot of money to spend on

The real issue with this deck is that I'm pretty sure that {Birthing pod} is still banned.

Fail 2.0

{Collected Company} actually makes a perfectly fine replacement for Pod.  Even if it doesn't it Rhino, it still can grab any other creature in the deck.

I re-checked it's not banned

Yeah it could work, but would you run 4 copies?

Piotr hasn't updated the ban lists in a while, so on the app it says it's still legal.

Curve needs to be lower with CC and you need more creatures. Anafenze is absolutely amazing for the decks since she enables beats so much better than Melira did, and you can still combo if your opponent is bad.

Fair enough.  CoCo fills a very similar role that Pod does and they only have 4 creatures in the deck that it can't hit (Rhino), it just seemed like a good replacement

Ok thanks for the help!
