Ill be waiting for that d20 article now ;P

Hahah writing it as we speak.

Yeah I really like  {Borborygmos Enraged} here, not to mention he's a nice beat stick with trample.

Cool deck. I love reanimator too, especially {Unburial Rites}!

Slight side note: when referring to {Abrupt}, did you mean to say it could wipe out a land?

Thanks! Aaand oops, I had a brain fart on {abrupt decay}. Thanks for pointing it out!

Hmm, I find it a very solid read. I would appreciate some match up analysis, but other than that I like it. Great work!

Thank you! I wrote this to test the waters and see it would be received. In my future articles, I will definitely include match ups.

Sure. You certainly do have potential. If this is something you enjoy, then keep at it and I am sure you will only improve. You are off to an excellent start.

Yeah, I used to write a ton via being a nerdy loner in high school and later taking every English class under the sun in college. I've been slacking off with it for the last two years, and saw this as a good opportunity to ease myself back into writing on a regular basis. Again, thank you for the encouraging words.

No love for main deck lingering souls....

[Mikefrompluto]

There's more things I'd rather be doing on T2 and T3, such as {grisly salvage}, abusing {deathrite shaman}, dropping {lotleth troll},  flashing back {faithless looting}, or dropping a {centaur healer}.

So, as a question for a reanimator deck, start of game draw a god hand, and able to reanimate T1 would you go for an {it that betrays} or {griselbrand}? As you can tell I'm thinking outside of standard.

[Mikefrompluto]

I'd go with {griselbrand} because you could immediately draw 14 cards and drop more creatures into the graveyard at the end step. I don't see {it that betrays} being incredibly beneficial on T1.

Hahaha come T2, your opponent would be pissed if you chose {It That Betrays}.

"I play a land"
"Swing.  Thanks for the land"

I realy think 2 {Angel of Serenity} is realy important in a rites deck, it's just an all out bomb and is just amazing.
