An updated version of the run-of-the-mill Melira Pod deck. For those of you who are new to Modern or don't know how the combo works here it is:

Melira, Sylvok Outcast+Viscera Seer+Kitchen Finks = infinite life because you can sacrifice the Finks an arbitrarly large number of times to Viscera Seer. Melira says that creatures can't have -1/-1 counters put on them which means the Persist ability of both Kitchen Finks and Murderous Redcaps happens forever. Murderous Redcaps actually lets you win the game but is much worse to cast without the combo in play which is why there is only one in the deck. Every other creature simply adds value to the deck.

Scavenging Ooze - Gives you some mainboard hate to graveyard decks and makes the B/G/x deck matchup significantly better because it makes Goyf worse.

Birds of Paradise / Noble Hierarch - The mana dorks that let you cast your spells.

Birthing Pod - The bread and butter of the deck. This is what actually makes the deck function by actually finding the huge amounts of 1 ofs in your deck.

Archangel of Thune+Spike Feeder also creates another combo which gains you infinite life and makes every creature you control other than Spike Feeder infinitely large.

Everything else in the deck is fairly self explanatory but if you need any help just ask me. As always any constructive criticism is welcome.
