Post rotation 5 color rites

[Thetrufflehunter]

It's obviously not as good as unburial rites, but it's 4{B} sac a dude: reanimate a creature. Also, borbor is in red, should I cut it to 4 colors or stick {W}{B}{G}? Also, what do you think about giant adephage. This is a creature based deck.

Adephage is a really good beater. I think you should cut it to 3-colors definitely.

Drown in filth, Deathrite shaman, mana dorks, centaur healer, lotlethtroll, giant ade, obzedat's aid / new reanimator, grisly salvage, abrupt decay, instant speed removal, maybe lifebane zombie.

You'll want monsters with ETB effects because you might end up sac'ing them to your reanimator.

Glad I have 5 overgrown tombs laying around...
Should we talk numbers now? Ratios?

[Pirate John]

I'd just load it up on shocks for the time being

[Thetrufflehunter]

Ok. Ill throw it into deck editor and see what happens.

Eh I went 4-1 a few weeks ago with a 5 color reanimator. Only loss was to the 1st place finisher.

[Thetrufflehunter]

Exactly my point! Decklist? I'm liking how the {W}{G}{B} is looking though.

Fine, call me a hypocrite.

Was it post rotation? No. Lol

{Golgari Charm} doesn't help with Reanimator, but what it does do is destroy enchantments. Specifically, {Burning Earth}, which will be a triple colored decks bane, because you'll be running shocklands and post rotation Scry lands. It's a card for your sideboard

[Thetrufflehunter]

Oh yeah. I ran into a guy who boarded in 4 burning earths..

It's the best answer to Jund and USA flash right now

[Thetrufflehunter]

So thoughts on {elvish mystic} or the BBoP in here?

[DylanW18]

{Elvish Mystic} is mandatory. Accelerating especially for midrange, is vital

[Thetrufflehunter]

I'm running 3 deathrite shaman. Should I run the {1}{G} 0/3 hexproof defender {T}: add one of any color to your mana pool or elvish mystic?

[DylanW18]

Honestly, run 4 Shaman, 4 Mystics, and 4 of those dorks. That ENSURES that even if you can't reanimate them, you'll just hard cast your {Angel of Serenity}. Also, you need an answer to {Scavenging Ooze}.


{Teysa, Envoy of Ghosts} actually worked in a Reanimator build of mine
