GUR POD

by lordvane on 17 October 2011

Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

This is my tournament deck In testing.

Any Input would be greatly appreciated.

Deck discussion for GUR POD

my main comment for this is i like the list just a few things,

your deck seems quite weak in the 3 slot spot, even with the recurability of the ruinators it might be still useful to have a extra choice in the spot. not sure what it could be as i havent personally tried building RUG pod.
The only other point is that in this deck i think i would rather be playing ponder over think twice as it gives you more range and with birthing pods you do get the option to shuffle if u only want one or 2 of the cards

Okay. This is how you are wrong.

Only one Mana Acelerant. POD NEEDS TO BE OUT ASAP.
You don't need four Emissary. He's good, don't get me wrong, but Myr Superion is MUCH BETTER if you have your seven acelerants.
Runiator? That's it? Where are your other three-spots? You run some combination of two Priest of Urabrask, Deciver Exarchs and Treasure Mage while Ruinator takes up a fifth spot.
Sure. 4 Solemn is good. 2 Metamorph is good. I'd do 2 SS, 2 PM, one Tree of Redemption.
I play two Archon of Justice, two Acidic Slime, one Urabrask. You can't run the Archon, but Urabrask could make this much better.
Seven Six Drops. With only 3 ways to Pod to it. Run a pair of ONE and singletons of others.
No seven Drop?! WHAT?! Not even Myr Battlesphear? Elesh Norn? That's a problem in my oppinion.
THINK TWICE ABOUT USING THINK TWICE. Your mana should fual Pod and it's guys. NOT A SPELL THAT HARDLY DOES ANYTHING. (Sorry, I hate that card.)
Wolf Run can be a two-of. You need more colored mana, and less mana sinks.

RUG pod was used to have the Pod Strategy go with the Splinter Twin Combo. Now that it's gone... Almost no reason to use it. I haven't playtested this deck, but it just looks shakey. To be honest, look at Bant Pod. That's much more consitant.
