Deck Description

Draw and discard my artifacts or kuldotha phoenix.... them reanimate them with trash for treasure... missing some things and I am aware of this, i want at least 2 sharuum the hegemon, I also need a few inkwell leviathen.... Need opinions and suggestions for this.. I really really want to run a play set of goblin welder but he is too expensive for me to buy right now sadly, maybe in the future, also I plan this to be a modern deck I can take to a tournament, and can switch in and out to legacy with the goblin welder =] probably not legacy tournament worthy, but i think it can do some damage in modern...

Has a possible turn 2 reanimation =] when I get sharuum the hegemon i can reanimate 2 creatures on turn 2.

need help with the sideboard..

How to Play

Turn 1: mountain, memnite/ornithopter/mox opal, faithless looting... (Draw 2 cards and discard two of my big artifact creatures.) Turn 2:mountain, pyretic ritual, trash for treasure... (sac one of my 0 drops and bring one of my big artifact creatures to play) Turn 3:attack and hopefully draw and reanimate more.. Turn 2 I can have a 5/5 flyer and make the opponents life become 10, have out sphinx of the steel wind which is just amazing, or something like a myr battlesphere and start hitting for huge damage. Kuldotha Phoenix, Kuldotha Forgemaster, and Akroma's Memorial are back ups in case the game goes too long or I need to get around something. Steel hellkite and a couple myr battlespheres will be switched out when I get a few Sharuum the Hegemon, and probably inkwell leviathen....Might try to get another sphinx of the steel wind =]

Deck discussion for Mono red reanimate

dude, myr retriever would be amazing here! another trash for treasure would be a good idea for sure. i feel like u need some big hitter to come out. maybe akroma angel of fury? i think another interesting card for the deck would be phyrexian core, if i remember it right, its a land u can sac an artifact to and gain a life. and just to be a dick, u can always consider a few elixir of immortality here to hahaha.

I agree but I'm not sure I wanna run myr retriever in this deck, and yea there are still some things I need for this deck, as in at least 1 or 2 more kuldotha forgemaster, and some sphinx of hegemon for sure.... And elixir of immortality now that is something I should seriously consider... hmmm let me think on it, any suggestions for what to take out, if i added the elixir I would probably either put 2 or 3 in, maybe just 2.... But I updated the deck, some buddys came over and I play tested it and traded them for some things for the deck and it has a little more fire power now with the steel wind, another magistrate, and another phoenix... It worked actually really really well, it was a fun deck to play, and I only got to play 2 games but it did well, I won both with it. But I updated it with the new adds now... I'll continue to update his deck as I get what I need for it thru trades and such, and I'll let you know how the deck does in future matches =]

sweatness, if it was me, i would drop the battlesphere to the sb maybe. that would free up some room for a couple elixirs and if u want the myr, i would move memnite and thopter to the sb as well that frees up space for at least 3 myr. my way of thinking, it gives u a back up win by recycling the perilous myr. i would also move 1 hellkite and 1 magister to the sb for another pheonix plus a forgemaster. maybe those changes would really charge the deck? play testing is a good way to know lol.

I think I will drop 1 lightning bolt and a memnite for 2 elixir of immortality....I wanna keep the battlespheres and the magistrates, they are both incredibly useful... I really like using the battlespheres with kuldotha forgemaster, it gives him fodder for his ability. I definately want more forgemasters but I have to come across them, no one had any that i played with last night and I'm not gonna buy anything at this moment. I was thinking if 2 phoenixs were enough, but idk I might want to add a 3rd, it was really nice having a creature that never went away when I played last night, just dont wanna over do it on him.. hmm and when I get my creatures that I need to put in this deck like more forgemasters and some sphinx of hegemon the hellkites will be the first creatures to be replaced... Thanks for your input and help on this deck, I really like this deck, it was very fun to play. People get confused you you say your running a reanimater deck and the only lands they see played are mountains haha

Slobad, Goblin Tinkerer will make your artifacts indestructible at the cost of sacrificing an artifact. Works well with Perilous Myr.

haha pretty much I draw cards like crazy using faithless looting, ichor wellspring, and wild guess. I will always come across 1 or 2 trash for treasure because of this. Trash for treasure is the only reanimate but I draw them quite a bit. Elixir of immortality is to rejuvenate my reanimates. Worse comes to worse kuldotha forgemaster for the instant pull and kuldotha phoenix for the reanimate effect in itself. I've reanimated every game Ive played so far by turn 4 at least because of the huge amount of drawing i do. haha if that helps you get an idea

I read the new article, great job. Solid explanations, and I love how you show people who read it that there is always many different directions you can go with each style of play. Reanimate isn't just black, aggro doesn't stick to just red... ect.. Keep up the good work, I enjoy the articles
