So if you read my post under combo corner or standard " cheating mana" could I do that in commander.

When I mean cheating mana is taking my creature cards in the deck and putting them in the graveyard with something like { buried alive} and then bringing it back from the graveyard to the battlefield with something like { unbariel rites} ( cheating mana!) like getting an eldrazi out on turn 5 cheating mana!

It sounds like you're just reanimating.

If you're looking to make a reanimator commander deck, feel free to check my deck "grave mayhem" for ideas. It does pretty well.

The thing with Lim-Dûl is that he exclusively reanimates your opponents creatures. Which can be good fun, but it's rarely all that effective. I'd recommend Karador.

{Chainer, Dementia Master}

Chainer is great!

I love Chainer for pulling stuff from my opponents' graves, because chainer causes them to get exiled when he's done with them. So let Chainer grab opponents' creatures, and if you need your own, don't risk the exile and pull them out with {Hell's Caretaker} or {Sheoldred, the Whispering One}, or something like {Debtors' Knell} instead.

Deciding which graveyard to play with matters. You always know what creatures are in your deck, and you know your ways of {entomb}ing them. Your opponents' graves are more of a craps shoot, so if you are making a reanimator EDH deck, be aware of both and pay attention to which you can pull from. Make sure you can always pull from your own, but look for the option. Cards that say "a graveyard" are the best, since you can pull from any, and cards like {ashen powder} are a risk but can pay off.

I like {Coffin Queen}, or as I call her: Lara Croft, Tomb Raider.   8)
