Deck Description

So this my try on making my birthing pod deck able to play tournaments, basically I wanted to make the lower part more consistent while having versatility on my 4+ drops.
While testing I came to the conclusion that the best low drops I was playing or the ones I preferred to play were: Birds of Paradise on 1, Viridian Emissary on 2 and Blade Splicers on 3 but I kept room for a little versatility here as well
I have 2 Phyrexian Metamorph because its able to clone Birthing Pod which can be quite handy
I'm still not sure that its done, feels like something is off but I think its primarily the sideboard I have to work with.

Deck discussion for Tourna-Birthing Pod

IMO, Venser is too slow, he can be replaced with OB Rings. What I'd cut in your SB is; Palladium Myr, Sylvok Lifestaff, Brindle Boar, Deciever Exarch (it's only good with flash, and BP is sorcery speed), Myr Superion won't be all that great, then move the Archon of Justice to the main board.
You could add 1 more Trinket Mage and Nihil Spellbomb, and a few Dismember for spot removal. Maybe you could just add those Venser to SB.

Anway, good luck, and have a great day!

First of, thanks for the comment.
I've been thinking about trying mimic vat instead of venser and then swap frost for double sun titan since I can return mimic with it. I've also been looking at Palladium myr and Myr Superion, I think its a great idea too swap em for removal. As for Sylvok Lifestaff, Brindle Boar and Deciever Exarch im still not quite done testing, but I think I need either Sylvok Lifestaff or Brindle Boar against burn. Deciever Exarch is quite useful to get from 2-4 with 1 birthing pod, but I have been looking a little at it as well, however It is quite useful to be able to go from Viridian to either Stonehorn Dignitary(vs aggro), Solemn Simulacrum (for double land) or Phyrexian Metamorph so like I said earlier i'm not quite done testing those.
