If you like attacking, I sure hope you don’t get paired against this deck. We’ve seen some decks pop up that resemble Birthing Pod minus the Birthing Pods, and this deck is similar.
Stonehorn Dignitary combos pretty well with Venser, the Sojourner and Restoration Angel to lock you out of your attack steps. Chord of Calling can find additional copies of Restoration Angel if necessary and will eventually find the Spike Feeder / Archangel of Thune combo to kill you outright. If you try to disrupt the combo, Spellskite is there to save the day.
In the meantime, this is just a value deck with Kitchen Finks, Wall of Omens, and even Thragtusk at the top end. Venser works well with basically all of those cards also, which is pretty nice.
The sideboard does a lot to address problematic matchups like Affinity and combo. Aside from that, there’s mostly some bullets to find with Chord of Calling. Birthing Pod might be gone, but perhaps its Legacy can live on.
