Another Meren of Clan Nel Toth deck. Lots of recursion and ETB effects, a little bit of stax when necessary.

Lots of token generation to get benefits off sac effects. You get recursion from Meren of Clan Nel Toth, Trading Post, Eternal Witness, Life from the Loam, and Victimize.

Mikaeus the Unhallowed + Deathcloud is a pretty sweet interaction. Wipe the board clean except for your creatures that get bigger off Mikaeus' Undying effect. Swing in when all your creatures come back with +1/+1 counters on them. It's extra evil with Smokestack + Tangle Wire on the board.

Still playtesting it. It definitely needs more tutors than Sidisi, Undead Vizier and Worldly Tutor.

In order to abuse Birthing Pod a little more, I think this deck wants a couple more 4 drop creatures. Mindslaver
