Deck Description

A pretty standard fair Pod list with a Blade Strategy for back up. I went GW because I don't think blue adds enough benefit to make up for the cost of running a three color manabase and 24 land. Also, Squadron Hawk acts as sudo card draw, as it can be turned into any one of the creatures with a little bit of work from birthing pod.

I went with Sword of Body and Mind mainly as a budget factor, though creating another creature is advantageous as both another sword holder and a ramp spell when used with birthing pod.

I think archon of Justice is better than Acidic Slime, as it is a bigger body that is more evasive and will pretty much get to use its effect under most circumstances due to most removal spells destroying a creature rather than exiling it. I'm not 100% sure though, so I split one and one.

Still needs to be tested.
