Information

A deck focused on ramping up to play a Cykalis, the Burning Sand or Moonstone Vanguard, slap a Divining Rod on it, and pray for the best.

Pledge counts as a keyword for the purposes of Divining Rod, which allows many of our lategame units to be played for free.

Mulligan heavily for a Pledge unit as in most pledge-centric decks, as Glasshopper and Bear Guard Bayonet become extremely good for the cost if you have pledged.

Permafrost and Scorpion Wasp used as removal choices due to heavy play of Vargo Redclaw

given the use of Auralian Merchant isn't it better to have a Divining Rod in the market? Has vapor hut been useful?
KhrushchevGT Eternal Version: 1.45.7
I made the sideboard before switching to more heavily rely on DRod, this is a good idea. I like Vapor Hut to get power out of the top of my deck so Mohknati draws more non-power that I can more easily empty from my hand, but it's more of a pet card and I'll definitely try the rod in the sideboard over it.
Fenume Eternal Version: 1.45.7
All for pet cards, but have you considered porcelain mask for vapor hut?
KhrushchevGT Eternal Version: 1.45.7
I may give it a shot. My biggest concern is that it only really adds Mokhnati to the list of hits from all the non Cykalis Pledge units and Cykalis/Mokhnati to the Mana dorks. All the pledge units already hit Cykalis, and using the Rod on a Mana dorks only looking for 8 cards seems like a very low chance to hit.

Not sure if that upside is worth losing out on guaranteed value or another more traditional market option.

Just wanted to update that I've been finding success with worldbreaker behemoth, you can put rod on it, and it plays power from your deck :)
iamsum1gr8 Eternal Version: 1.45.7
I hadn't thought of the benefits of pulling the power off the top so that Rod and Moknati hit better. I'm running an extra Cykalis over the main Rod, and switched the Permafrost and Trail Maker numbers.
