With DTK this deck got a big new addition in Collected Company and Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit. I need help implementing these cards and other ones into my deck.

~ OVERVIEW OF CARDS ~

Birds of Paradise is very important to the strategy. It ramps you into larger mana creatures and allows you to play a turn 2 pod (without activation).

Eternal Witness lets you get back cards from when they die, useful with your Persist creatures or Qasali Pridemage. It also forms a soft-lock with Reveillark.

Kitchen Finks is part of the combo and very useful against aggro decks, especially Burn. It is also a potent beatdown tool in case the combo gets shut down.

Melira, Sylvok Outcast enables the combo to work and stops Infect in their tracks. However, she is very useless outside of those jobs.

Murderous Redcap is essential to the infinite damage combo, and also keeps up the tempo in the later game. A good value engine, necessary in any Melira Pod list.

Orzhov Pontiff works very well in the mirror matchup, letting us squeeze in more damage or clear away their Viscera Seer or Eternal Witness. It also has additional value once Podded away.

Qasali Pridemage is very good against Affinity or other decks that rely on their artifacts. It can be recurred with Reveillark or Eternal Witness.

Courser of Kruphix helps us in our aggro matchups. This slot is currently flex and I am considering playing Catacomb Sifter here instead. In the past this was Ranger of Eos .

Scavenging Ooze is a beatstick, as well as shutting down a lot of the graveyard decks, including Grishoalbrand. It wrecks a lot of decks in the metagame with not enough removal. It's also an answer to Snapcaster Mage.

Spellskite stops Infect dead in their tracks. Its ability of not dying to Lightning Bolt or Go for the Throat makes it especially good. Also, it protects our creatures when we get out the combo.

Viscera Seer enables our combo to work, but is very bad otherwise. You want to tutor this guy out before Melira, as he prevents her from getting hit Path to Exile by saccing her instead, so you can retrieve with an Eternal Witness.

Sideboard description will be added soon.
