What do you think the best color deck will be after Dragons Maze?
I'm goin to go with:
1. RUG Midrange
2. Junk Rites
3. Jund Midrange
#2. There's just so much good stuff that deck is getting. {Deadbridge chant}, {Obzedat's aid}, {rot farm skeleton}, plus some decent rites targets.
^As true as this may be, {Rest in peace} still ruins it completely....

Well yeah. Luckily green is big on enchantment removal and can be sideboarded for accordingly.
The deck just sides out reanimator stuff and becomes midrange.
{abrupt decay} says hey.
This is all true, but a deck with white doesn't NEED to see {rest in peace} to beat a reanimator deck. A reanimator NEEDS to see enchantment removal to even have a chance against {rest in peace}. Idk I'm probably biased because I've never seen a reanimator deck do much of anything in a control-heavy meta such as mine, but I don't think reanimator will ever take the #1 best deck spot when a single card stops it in its tracks...
By that same merit, {blind obedience} kills Aggro, {dissapate} hoses snappy, control is screwed by that uncounted able cycle, etc. reanimator can always just kill it though, 2 if the 3 colors are great at enchantment killing
Jut wait, Naya midrange and flash will become way more popular. {Voice of Resurgence}
I personally almost always play jund midrange so I'm gonna have to go with that(:
I think Bant control may come back as well.
Oh and incase you guys havnt figured it out, {Legion's Initiative} is the perfect card for any Naya deck. This card will make terminus and supreme verdict worthless. Plus, who doesn't like a 4-4 {Boros Reckoner}.

This is just not true though. Aggro can still win with {blind obedience} out, it just slows it down a little bit. Decks do not revolve around snapcaster, so it's not like {dissipates} are going to stop someone from having a chance at all. {Abrupt decay} is the only sure-fire way to deal with {rest in peace}, and what If you don't see a single one? What if as soon as you play one your opponent plays another {rest in peace}? What if all of your best reanimator stuff was already in your graveyard and then your opponent exiled it all just like that? Is killing a {rest in peace} (when you've already exhausted all your resources into filling up your graveyard) really going to do much of anything for you?
Just some things to think about. While I know there are ways for reanimator to still win against that card, it's not NEARLY as easy as you seem to think it is. And on top of that, rest in peace isn't even the only good graveyard hate out there, there are a few other GREAT ones such as {purify the grave}.
With all these new tools, reanimator will definitely be a competitive deck, but the best? Certainly not.
