7/7/14 Modern Melira Pod

This is the Modern deck I'm working on putting together:

4 Birds of Paradise
3 Kitchen Finks
3 Noble Hierarch
3 Voice of Resurgence
1 Reveillark
1 Ranger of Eos
1 Scavenging Ooze
1 Qasali Pridemage
1 Phyrexian Metamorph
1 Orzhov Pontiff
1 Murderous Redcap
1 Melira, Sylvok Outcast
1 Linvala, Keeper of Silence
1 Eternal Witness
1 Shriekmaw
1 Spellskite
1 Archangel of Thune
1 Spike Feeder
1 Wall of Roots
1 Viscera Seer

2 Abrupt Decay
2 Chord of Calling
4 Birthing Pod

4 Verdant Catacombs
4 Misty Rainforest
3 Razorverge Thicket
3 Gavony Township
3 Forest
2 Overgrown Tomb
1 Temple Garden
1 Swamp
1 Godless Shrine
1 Woodland Cemetery

SIDEBOARD
1 Abrupt Decay
1 Scavenging Ooze
1 Orzhov Pontiff
2 Dismember
1 Sigarda, Host of Herons
2 Sin Collector
4 Thoughtseize
1 Thrun, the Last Troll
1 Entomber Exarch
1 Harmonic Sliver

I have everything except:

4 Verdant catacombs
3 Misty Rainforest
1 Gavony Township
3 Noble Hierarch
2 Voice of Resurgence
1 Reveillark
1 Ranger of Eos
1 Qasali Pridemage
2 Orzhov Pontiff
1 Murderous Redcap
1 Melira, Sylvok Outcast
1 Linvala, Keeper of Silence
1 Eternal Witness
1 Shriekmaw
1 Spike Feeder
1 Wall of Roots
1 Viscera Seer
2 Chord of Calling
1 Thoughtseize
1 Entomber Exarch
1 Harmonic Sliver
1 Sigarda, Host of Herons

I have ordered everything, except:

4 Verdant Catacombs
3 Misty Rainforest
3 Noble Hierarch
2 Voice of Resurgence
1 Linvala, Keeper of Silence
1 Thoughtseize

I can technically borrow 4 Verdant Catacombs from the Legacy Jund deck.
Borrow 3 Misty Rainforest from the Modern RUG Twin deck.
Borrow 2 Voice of Resurgence from the Standard Hexproof deck.
Borrow 1 Thoughtseize from the Standard Esper deck.

Then I would only need to buy:
3 Noble Hierarch
1 Linvala, Keeper of Silence

Even if I put this deck together before the Eudemonia PTQ, I doubt I would show up and play this deck, since I would have (almost) no practice with it.  But I felt like having a second competitive Modern deck option would be nice.  I considered buying into Affinity but the deck has a pretty high skill cap and it's very weak against all the artifact hate people pack into their sideboards for Affinity.  Namely, Shatterstorm, Creeping Corrosion, Stony Silence, and Kataki, War's Wage.
