I play a reanimator by myself. If you interested in the list I could post it here or send it to you, dont know if I should “spam” it here.

Some quick notes:

Add

+Darkblast (amazing vs aggro and filling your grave)

+Terastadron (blowing up to 3 permantents is amazing or make 18 power on the table)

+White Akroma (haste pro B/R, first strike)

+Exhume (you have allways the fat guys in the yard)

+Frantic Search (obvious)

+Sphinx of the lost Truth (OBVIOUS)

+Tombstalker (use all ur cylce card draw cards to get a fatti for BB on the field)

+Iona (GG mono coloured decks)

+Hellkite Overlord (8 dmg haste, yes pls)

+Inkwell Leviathan (!)

+Diabolic Servitude (Rancor Reanimator, yes pls)

+Life/Death (reanimate for 2)

+Ancestors Choosen (Just ridiculous vs aggro)

+Vigor Mortis (4 Mana Zombify)

+Bonded Fetch (looter with haste and better then the magus)

+Waterfron Bouncer (bouncing creatures and get the fattis in your yard, yes pls)

+Recall (get your reanimate spells back and discard your trash)

so far…if there any cards which arent available on MTGO yet, sry for the suggestion. I play only in real life and magic work station.

so far gj keep it on and post some game videos

With regard to control, yes, this is the worst match by far. It’s all about your early game creatures (esp. Bloodghast), land disruption and exhausting their resources via the discard package in the SB and merely outdrawing them – which is no difficult feat with the surplus of card draw in the deck. But even still, the bounce, the counter-magic, and potential sweepers make this a very difficult match. In particular, I SB out all the anti-creature stuff: Kazzul, Thraximundar, even Flametongue. Garza Zol, Woodfall Primus, Sedris… these are your buddies in terms of big duders you want to stick.

Board the Chewer if they run artifact mana. Then you have Pyroblast as a little bit of extra oomph.

This is a difficult deck to pilot competitively; lots of tough calls, potential tempo issues, and random draws. But it’s def fun, and prob my fav deck I have cobbled together in this format. It’s def not it’s time to shine, like back when I used a variant to win a few PEs. With all the hyper Aggro dex, and then their antithesis (Control), it’s an uphill battle I’d leave to the Practice Rooms, maybe 2-mans.

Thanks for the comments, guys. Expect some more deck tech vids very soon!

Thanks!

Zodiac Dragon / Rukh Egg – Printed intent was that these cards only worked from play. “From play” is merely clarification. If it didn’t say that, they would still only work from play since that’s the default. The text was added because the cards are (obviously) a bit confusing without it, and this is the modern template for this clause.

So why does channelfireball pay 180$ for it just because it is a PTK rare? that would be weird wouldnt it?

i misread it apparently. It was 80$ I think. They sell it for 99$

maybe they know something about a potential reverting of the power level errata (see time vault etc for reference)

Would sure mix up vintage and legacy a lot if they return the zodiac dragon to former glory
