I like all of those suggestions except {thragtusk} (too much $$$) and {worldspine wurm} (can't get it to stay in the graveyard and 11 CMC is too much to hard cast.)

I'll bump my 5 Color Reanimater I pretty much dropped {G} because I don't have Thrag and got tired of people telling me too run him lol

You still have problems with casting {U} with Laterns?  And a couple of Wurms is a good number, just have an Angel in hand for a flicker to blocking board sweep with 5/5's lol.

I actually haven't tested it out yet, so I don't know how quickly I could cast some {U} stuff. I put the lanterns in there more for {havengul lich} so I can steal my opponents creatures too. They're more backup in case i don't have the right color mana i would need.

{Angel of Glory's Rise} and a butt load of humans.

Yeah I've thought about that, but all of the *good* humans are out of my price range 😥

If you can find a way to run  {Omniscience} reliably, you can cast each creature in the graveyard for 1 and it helps with the high cost creatures.

{Omniscience} is from your hand only, or else that would amazingly awesome.

Dang good point I keep forgetting that

Ok, slight solution,  {Tamiyo, the Moon Sage} and  {Omniscience}

Yeah that would be a gnarly combo. After testing, this deck would be too fast for that combo though. It would definitely need some kind of ramp, which I don't really see room for.

No PWalkers in Reanimater, mulch and grisly salvage screws it over, I know your not rolling salvage but you'll regret the mulch that gy's it.

Yeah PWs don't seem to fit with reanimator too well. I got a Christmas bonus at work today, so im dropping one each of {thundermaw hellkite} and {thragtusk} in here. Also started the SB, but I can't finish it until I find out what it loses to in my meta.

I'm a big fan of reanimate decks, while running red you would be surprised at how effective and underused {Flayer of the Hatebound} is.

Oh man, I could deal some major damage with that in play without even attacking. Im going to try those out.

 {Angel of Glory's Rise} + {Goldnight Commander} combo is insane. {Fiend Hunters} and a bunch of cheap humans entering the battlefield all at once, instant army of 20/20's

But then you just bit a GP Deck, boo, be original.

{Rest in Peace} is in about every SB so snag some, {Erase}, {Ancient Grudge} & {Rakdos Charm} for {Grafdigger's Cage}.

Even better with  {Disciple of Griselbrand}. Put the hunter on the the angel and it becomes {1}, sac a {fiend hunter}: gain 3 life and put a {fiend hunter} sacrificed this way into play.

Yeah i put the fourth {abrupt decay} in the SB in case RIP is a major problem. I forgot about grafdigger being a problem though.

Updated. Moved havengul and the lanterns to the SB. With mulch, looting, and Farseek, mana correction isn't too slow or difficult. Pack rat wasnt workin how I liked, and I replaced it with lingering souls for some blockers. Runs smoother but is still missing something that I can't quite place my finger on.
