Deck Description

This deck is trying to take advantage of the lack of graveyard hate in the current format to reanimate hard to remove critters, (Crusher is cute and all but it dies to pretty much all Black removal, and every Blue bounce spell is just pure brutality, so thanks but no thanks).
Back that up with a pile of control cards and some filter/draw and you've got a deck that the current pauper meta can really struggle to answer.
Oh, and it's also fun! ;)

How to Play

1) Kill and counter anything scary or vital to opponent. Dig with Gaze and Modern Age.
2) Bog opponent's yard, Exhume big protected dummy and smash while repeating point 1.
Interactions:
All the filtering grants quick Ganglers
Besides the Crab "Mana Leak" effect just ripping off a "Stifle" effect just to yard dump it is perfectly reasonable with either a Exhume or a Muddle search ready to rock.
Exhume on the stack against a activated Relic in response when you can cycle a Serpent is always fun.
Inventory and filter effects work great together, Bog and Aqueduct is a pair of lands.
SB is just power cards aimed at popular pauper decks.

Deck discussion for UB Reanimator Control 2.0

Personally I'm a big fan of Thought Scour over Otherworldly Gaze and generally of a more cantrip focused build but this seems very well built. Real fan of the inclusion of Kamigawa cards too!

The reason for Gaze over Scour is because it digs, Scour just dumps and you draw a random, this deck wants to locate specific cards, (this is especially evident when you look at the SB configuration). Plus being able to reuse it out of the yard is priceless.
Including cards from New sets is always fun, especially when they are good! :)
(I even managed to squeeze in some SNC cards)
