{veilborn ghoul} + any looting spell.
Currently using this with {faithless looting} and 2 *foil* {wild guess} in my standard reanimator. The combo also keeps your evolving wilds alive late game because you can crack it on your turn, then bring out 2-3 on your turn to hit for 8-12 next turn. Let me know what you guys think.
I don't understand.
i think he forgot to add the crucial and cast the veilborn ghoul from your hand. at which point it isn't very profitable.
It's nice that he goes back to your hand for more looting, but in a reanimator deck you're gonna want big creatures in your grave, as opposed to just recycling a 4/1 for discard effects.
By returning the ghoul to your hand every turn, it lets you use {R}'s discard spells as pure draw spells to dig into your deck for important pieces of Reanimator. He's using it as a Standard {Squee, Goblin Naboob}.
It turns a {Mad Prophet} into a better {Archivist}, since you can load your gy too.
The Jester approves.
(what, no *foil* {Faithless Looting}? ;))
Jester, if you have foils of any of these cards ... :D
And yeah, your never casting it until maybe the end of the game when they have somehow managed to trade for your rean targets. It's absolutely ridiculous how efficient it is though, and it's not even in rean that it can be used, give black red zombies a draw engine ?

I don't think a lot of players these days would remember Squee. Lol I was around when he came out and I remember all the shenanigans people would use him for and it was ridiculous!! But yeS, I see what the OP was saying. Making discards useful and work in your favor.
