I am unsure of how well this would perform.

I'm not so sure about the {Manaweft Sliver}. Is there a reason you chose him over something like {Lay of the Land} or another mana dork?

No whips main deck? Also, my deck called "junk rites" is right next to your deck called "junk rites" :/

Try to add  {Lifebane Zombie}s, and removal to slow down Aggro this deck seems very slow so a T3 Lifebane would really help I think.

Also  {Gaze of Granite} is an awesome board wipe when you need it!

This deck is based more on a cyclical reanimation with {Angel of Serenity} and {Sylvan Primordial} etbs being greatly abused. Whip is a more pressure based approach unless coupled with {obzedat, ghost council}. You run the risk of burning out since you do only get one swing with each creature. {Deadbridge Chant} is a much greater focus in this version in it's ability to facilitate that cycle I mentioned earlier.

As for the dork I'm aiming for the tapped land> dork> threat curve. Also the color fixing on the sliver is well worth it in a deck that struggles to hard cast threats early on.

Sorry about the name, if I change it then I cant edit it without making a new post.

I've grown to dislike {lifebane zombie} in my meta since their are more red and black decks than green or white creature decks.

I also run {deathrite shaman} as a mini scooze, and helps with mana/little bits of life/that last bit of damage you need to punch through.

Im actually looking at a combo based reanimator that will forsure use deathrite. The concern here was he has a low impact with how I want this to curve.
