Deck discussion for Graveyard Reanimator

Seems a little expensive mana-wise, with a lot of Reanimate cards being 4 to 5 mana. Also, I only see Buried Alive (and possibly Last Rites) as the only means of getting creatures into your graveyard. There are also about 12 targets for Reanimation: you can make space by removing about half of them, get some Dark Rituals in there for faster mana also! Animate Dead and Exhume are good: you might also look into Reanimate for a much faster start (one black mana compared to 4 or 5 mana of Beacon of Unrest, Dread Return). Finally Griselbrand is pretty much a must, and Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur helps get what you need fast while also shutting down your opponent. Pretty solid though, I really like the Living Death idea!

I add Jin-Gitaxias and took out Reaper from the Abyss. I'd add Griselbrand but I don't have him. Putrid Imp are there for early discard and Basal Thrull for turn 3 4 drop reanimate cards or just sac him for Animate Dead or Exhume. So I think that 4/5 cost of dread return and Beacon of Unrest aren't to bad.

you getting some where with this, but you should maybe cut down on the creatures to the 6-12 range in my opinion. other wise good job for trrying to get into reanimate.

my bad for taking a whle to get back was a bit busy.
but imo i would drop doomgape, realm razer, Pathrazer of Ulamog, forshur, and maybe the planinum angle and grave titin.

have you also considered switching the thrulls out for darkrituals and the sphinx of steel for a magistrate sphinx instead.

also if you want a few ideas this is what i run and i find it to be quit good.

I'd add iona. Being able to seal off a color early is awesome. Need 4 entombs, its expensive but speeds up the deck quite a bit. In my renimator I splash red for faithless lootongs which is drawing amd discarding at the same time and u can flashback it too. Take alooo at my reanimator if u want some ideas.
