I warn you, I've been given filthy looks, and cussed out many a time for playing that. If you follow that style of reanimator, you must be prepared to be the local douchebag of magic.


I also suggest that you strive to build one from the ground up too, reanimator is one of those decks that has to break you into its groove, and building from scratch makes that easier.

I posted what few ideas I had for it, I have to say, that is one epic deck. Especially since I have the bleach soundtrack in the background, it makes taking a poo seem epic lol

I've never really tried Fate Spinner before, but I'm going to, because I agree. It does indeed look like it wins games.

Two words; Copy Enchantment. That is literally the only thing I can think of for this deck, except maybe ditching the tarn for polluted delta, and catacombs for underground sea. And if you don't already have those, it's painful to buy.

I love the deck, it's just also a very unique build, all the others I see play only a couple of the fatties

Dude, Braids+Countertop is already an unadulterated lockdown... Throwing the Fate Doucher in is just adding insult to injury lol.


I sadly can't take credit for the paradise, I got the idea from Joe. He used it in that B/g disruption deck he posted, I liked it, and so I adopted it into my own decks

We pretty much only play like that, we like to build from the ground up, and with little input till the test drive stage.

I've seen but one solitary netdeck of my decks, and it was while I was using it on the workstation... I had a very interesting game, and taught them how to use my reanimator properly during the match lol

Neat, this has to be one of the few standard decks I've liked, it's unique, and powerful.

Pretty interesting, even had room for removal.

Slivers are easier to beat, since they're a global effect, I can just whip out hybernation sliver and deck them.

Curse of the Cabal is one of my favourite cards, simply because of the sheer amount of flavour it has.

And of course I have to say at least something about it; Braids is great with Bitterblossom, and just as much with Bloodghast, but I want you to take a look at the card 'Undiscovered Paradise'. You will ALWAYS have a Bloodghast out pretty much with that thing.


I like the idea of the deck, but how's it playing out so far? I just don't know how to react to it, or play it really... I've never been good with suspend

I started in the Zendikar block, and have to agree. I didn't like the looks of standard, and still don't, I know legacy sees a lot of mirrors, but there's a change in design in all of them at least...
I've seen a lot of countertop decks, probably more than I have caw-go, but they had fundamental differences each and every one. I've never even seen two identical(or near identical) Countertop Progenitus builds!

Jace -2.0 should NOT be in every blue deck to me, I've actually had a lot of decks that the original was better for. I only use him in I think one deck, and that's because his brainstorm-for-free effect is a game changing deal in legacy. He's just not powerful enough to warrant a play set, and finally, extended has at least realized this.


Overall, I think standard needs to get a full overhaul, and try and learn that there's more than four valid decks :/
I'm trying to build something of a toolbox deck for it, because I've always loved the idea of using batmans utility belt, and after seeing Joe's... It looks dangerous enough that I'll at least try and find a style of it for myself.



I have never just outright net decked, this is actually probably the closest I've ever come. I make sure I fully understand each piece before adding it, and why things are here.
It makes a better player, to be a better builder.

I HATE facing Allies, my friend has one of these, and it was the crap when alara was still standard.

I like your build for a take on it in the current standard, it seems fun.

I can understand why it's going standard though, I just hate the limitations on the format... Granted, I've pulled a mythic every other pack, so hopefully I'll keep getting swords lol

I might buy some when they hit ten or so a pop, until then they're not worth it to me.

I see how they're good for you and your cohorts in standard, but I don't see it being good enough in legacy for me to pay that much. I would kind of like to use him in bant though.


I think the trades you're doing are really about even, except the one with grave the nighthawks. I just like the thing to much lol

Congratulations on front page Joe! I've never had any talent with ramp or red, but I like this, it's a very well done toolbox build.

My only thought is perhaps a singleton fauna shaman, it just seems like it could be beneficial to me. It would probably help stabilize it a bit, but again I say, I lack experience with ramp and red.


Anyway, congratulations on another great deck hitting front page man.

Vengevine is nice and all, but I prefer me ma Bloodghasts. Try as I might, Vengevine just doesn't work for me except in extended.

I liked him in survival, which I still don't see why it was banned, and in aggro like yours, but I still think that it shouldn't cost that much.

This looks pretty fun to play, and cheap to build(short of the singleton wallet sculptor).

I like it, I think I might make a casual deck for the crawler. It'd give me a use for the random play set I have sitting in my box at the least, and it should be fun.

Dude, I live in redneck country, the only time I get to play magic is at FNM pretty much, and now that it's standard I have to get used to magic workstation...

I spent my week skeet shooting old bottles, playing with dogs, and eating barbecue. Welcome to spring break in south eastern USA lol

well that's interesting, it's like batmans utility belt, only with combos.

Neat

This is just odd. I like it.

I can honestly say I've never payed attention to Auriok Salvagers outside of vintage, and now that makes me sad. I've never thought of using him with LED, and especially never thought of using this mana with spellbombs.

I've been at a friends house for a couple days, I've had no contact with magic, so I haven't been able to work on it >_<
