A revamped version of a Pharika deck I had a while ago. Grew nostalgic for her, so I think I may bring her around for round 2.

The first version was much more heavily focused on constellation/enchantress abuse, but I've cut down the number of those effects. Instead, I've gone more in depth on creature control and attrition/graveyard shenanigans. Tokens fly everywhere here, and when they die, good stuff happens. Well, good stuff for you. Your opponents may disagree.

Sideboard = cards that I'm seriously considering (see explanations below).
Maybeboard = cards that're only going in if one somehow falls out of the sky into my lap.


Birds of Paradise, Viscera Seer:
All CMC 1 options to beef up Birthing Pod's utility for sacrificing tokens. Birds ramps, and Seer's a free sac outlet that fixes my draws.
Bane of Progress: With all the enchantment snakes going around, this will usually get to be pretty hefty: I'm just worried about wiping out my good stuff along with my opponent's.
Calming Verse: One-sided snake wipe. Good, but not sure if necessary. Primeval Light does the same for one player if I want to play favorites.
Garruk Relentless: Another good planeswalker. Garruk is pretty easy to flip in this deck - just target a snake token - and his reverse side's three abilities are all relevant. They're more utility focused than Apex Predator, but the creature tutor is pretty helpful, and being able to pseudo-Overwhelming Stampede in a pinch may come in handy.
Krosan Grip: A classic in terms of removal.
No Mercy: The ultimate "don't touch me!" card. Blows up creatures that Pharika can then turn into snakes.
Viridian Longbow: Another way for my snakes to kill things. Unlike Tracker, this doesn't kill the snakes in return.

Lord of Extinction -> Butcher of Malakir

Nighthowler -> Boon Satyr -> Maddening Imp
