This is my first ever deck and I have been tweaking it since 2015! The goal of the deck is to utilize birthing pod effects like Birthing Pod, Rushed Rebirth, Pattern of Rebirth, Natural Order, and so on.

We utilize this by having at least 1 black and at least 1 green creature in every cmc from 0 to 8 cmc.

The deck wins with either Necrotic Ooze lines like mikeaus, the unhallowed + Triskelion, life drain by reanimating Gray Merchant of Asphodel or Massacre Wurm multiple times , soft locking everyone via Contamination, or simple beat down with cards like It That Betrays, Terastodon, and Archon of Cruelty. The deck values high synergy so cards with great etb effects, sac outlets, b-pod synergy, reanimation, and so on. Any tips or suggestions is very welcomed!!!
