"The Legend of Zelda" custom Birthing Pod Themed deck, with each of the following Altered by professional artists to look like characters from the various storylines:

1. Roon of the Hidden Realm = Darunia, Leader of the Gorons, creating safe passage via underground tunnel networks.

2. Eternal Witness = BotW Link, 'witness' to 100 years of Ganon's corruptive influence; avenger of the fallen and Hero of all Hyrule!

3. Emiel the Blessed = Epona, steadfast steed of our band, always there to lend a lightning-fast hand (or hoof ;) ) in times of need.

4. Recruiter of the Guard = Impa, loyal soldier & guardian to the Royal Family, calling in reinforcements to bolster the ranks with Allies of the Realm.

5. Reflector Mage = Rauru with Kaepora Gaebora (his Owl), the Sage of Light & stalwart defender of the Temple of Time; keeping the peace beside his wise feathered friend.

6. Esper Sentinel = Nabooru, Leader of the Gerudo desert tribe & first on the scene with unforeseen traps when tragedy threatens her people.

7. Kiora's Follower = Princess Ruto (adult), leader of her tribe/guild of Merfolk with the power to communicate knowledge to anyone touching any water source which originated in her homeland.

8. Seedborn Muse = Saria, the very heart and innocence of the Forest realm, who never seems to tire in bringing joy and peaceful thoughts to all.

9. Wood Elves = Kid Link, a reminder to the Hero of Time of his innocent beginnings as a Kokiri child of the forest.

10. Birthing Pod = Parasitic Armored Arachnid Gohma, spawning her mini-mes to infect and evolve.

11. Shaman of Forgotten Ways = Skull Kid (with Moon background), mischievous and energetic, imbued with the ancient power to bring Majora's ruin to all who trespass.

12. Phyrexian Metamorph = Dark Link, twisted reflection of the Hero of Time, dishing out punishment against unwary foes using their tactics against them.

13. Phantasmal Image = The Hero of Time vs Dark Link, a face-off against the darkness inside.

14. Prime Speaker Vannifar = Twili Midna, the Twilight Princess herself, possessing vast powers over her ethereal realm, whispering secrets from the shadows to her worthy paragons.

15. Knight of Autumn = Urbosa, 2nd in command of the Gerudo desert tribe, able to assess the needs in battle & a welcome assist to her fellow Heroes.

16. Bane of Progress = Daruk, stonecrushing protector of the Gorons. Barreling through any obstacle on the battlefield to pave way for a finishing blow!

17. Archon of Emeria = Revali, obstinate but with solid confidence, able to scout the situation and slow enemy advance.

18. Pirated Copy = Tetra, ready to drop in when you least expect & plunder the best resource they've got by way of high-seas Curiosity.

19. Kiora, Master of the Depths = Princess Mipha, Champion of Renewing Waters, summoning her allies into the fray & keeping them ready for action.

20. Preston, the Vanisher = Ravio, devious scamp set to populate Hyrule with Illusions to drive enemies out of their minds.

21. Glen Elendra Archmage = Fi, the Spirit of the Master Sword, warder of danger and eternal companion to the Champion of Light.

22. Birds of Paradise = Kass, the wandering bard, ushering his friends to strange new lands, while alerting them to dangers ahead.

23. Ixidron = A Guardian, upending the battlefield with brutal blasts from its Omega Beams, crippling foes and decimating the odds.

24. Venser, Shaper Savant = King Rauru, modest and benevolent. His kind nature, tactical intelligence & advanced knowledge of Light Magic gained him heavy respect, almost worship, by the Hylians who believed he was a descendant of the Gods.

25. Craterhoof Behemoth = Dark Beast Ganon (had to without Black in the Deck ;P), howling his rage at the world he seeks to conquer & crushing those who would oppose!

26. Gaea's Cradle = The Mastersword in its Secret Grove deep in the heart of Hyrule, where it awaits the Hero of Time when the realm is threatened.

27. And of course, Bloom Tender = Princess Zelda, bringer of light and an ever-spring of hope, always ready to bestow buffs and the resilience to prevail!

Bant-Bounce evolution of Jenara, Asura of War since back in the day! (before Commander products) - GREAT power twins between Seedborn Muse / Alchemist's Refuge & Mistmeadow Witch / Perplexing Chimera. Primal Surge Finish with Cloudstone Curio & Kodama of the East Tree / Sakashima of a Thousand Faces combos if Instants/Sorceries removed for Sideboard.

Preston, the Vanisher loves this build more than most. Aside from the Flicker mechanics: Eldritch Evolution - Eladamri, Korvecdal - Birthing Pod - Prime Speaker Vannifar - Karmic Guide - Reveillark & even Finale of Devastation expand his world of Illusions.

Eladamri, Korvecdal carries himself with distinction. Surveil lands & Sensei's Divining Top at the ready. 12 Library shufflings, and so many besides Pod are repeatable: Survival of the Fittest, Wood Elves, Recruiter of the Guard...

And Weathered Wayfarer has a great flock too: Gaea's Cradle for Ramp - Mistveil Plains for Rez (Pod loves it) - Alchemist's Refuge & Minamo, School at Water's Edge for Combo - Boseiju, Who Endures & Otawara, Soaring City for Removal... even Canopy lands for Draw.

Combos of Note:

1. Variation on a Classic: Karmic Guide + Reveillark + Mirror Entity (works on Power 2< with Body Double in the mix).

2. Saving Grace / Turns: Eternal Witness + Eerie Interlude / Temporal Manipulation (or other Flicker for E-Wit).

3. Mana: Emiel the Blessed + Peregrine Drake (or Thousand-Year Elixir + Bloom Tender + Deadeye Navigator); add Spirit Bonds for tokens. =D

4. Life: Soul's Attendant + Leonin Relic-Warder + Phyrexian Metamorph.

5. Pod Escalation: Kiora's Follower + Pestermite + Felidar Guardian.

6. Non-Creature Shutdown: any Clone + Archon of Valor's Reach OR Ranger-Captain of Eos + Karmic Guide + any flicker.

7. Repeat 1-sided Boardwipe: Supreme Verdict + Eternal Witness + any "Next End Step" Flicker saves your best for last ;) (add Alchemist's Refuge to do it on Opponent's turn).

8. 1-sided neuter: Ixidron + Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite (Crystal Shard can make it every turn).

9. Lockouts: Deadeye Navigator + Venser, Shaper Savant / Nevermaker / OR Eternal Witness + any flicker + Memory Lapse.

10. Instant End: Shaman of Forgotten Ways pops its Biorhythm easier early with Gaea's Cradle + Avenger of Zendikar.

Bonus - Soulherder + Venser, Shaper Savant + The One Ring = "I AM Progenitus!" ;)

Extra Credit - UBER Twins: T1 Minamo, School at Water's Edge + T2 Kiora's Follower + T3 Eladamri & dork + T4 Preston, the Vanisher = Drop at least 2x what Elvish Piper can each turn! (more with Thousand-Year Elixir or Kiora, Master of the Depths) WITH Illusion copies!
