Ok, so I pulled an Avacyn recently and I pulled an Iona a while ago, and I've wanted to build a Reanimator deck since then.  I could really use some suggestions or ideas.  Going into building this deck a tad blind.  I've just been wanting to use them haha.

There are probably better creatures then {Avacyn, Angel of Hope} to use {reanimate} on. Like maybe Hexproof angel, maybe {Griselbrand}.

I'm not planning on just using {Reanimate}, btw.  I'm just wanting to build a deck that throws stuff in the graveyard to put back on the field.  I am actually in the process of getting a Griselbrand.  I'm just looking for suggestions on what to use to get creatures out of the graveyard, and what creatures I should put in the graveyard to begin with.

T1 {dark ritual}
{entomb} a {griselbrand} {reanimate} = profit?

Yeah,  those too.  I actually need a couple {Entomb}s :(

Check the decklist for the Premium Deck Series: Graveborn.

{Craterhoof Behemoth} is excellent for a reanimate deck if you're playing with {Geist Honored Monk} as well.

IMHO, you want a toolbox of reanimator targets based on what you need to win at the time, which is something that I really likes about the Graveborn deck.  Some of the fatties in my current iteration are {Sheoldred, Whispering One} + {It That Betrays}, {Reya Dawnbringer}, {Avacyn, Angel of Hope} + {Magus of the Disk}, {Drogskol Reaver}.

Don't forget your {Buried Alive}s, {Zombie Infestation}s, and {Dread Return}s.  Let me tell you, T1: {Dark Ritual}, {Buried Alive} for Sheoldred, I.T.B., and Avacyn followed by a T2: {Exhume} Sheoldred is a great way to lose friends.  ;)  Especially with T3 It That Betrays.

I'm actually planning on buying one, then taking it apart and using all the stuff I need haha.  And that is why I want to build a deck like this.  There are so many possibilities for an amazing deck that'll win in a few turns.  I just need to get the cards haha.  I honestly didn't think of It That Betrays, though.  That's a pretty awesome little combo. 

I have actually seen a couple deck lists that utilize Craterhoof and Geist Honored Monk.  I just need to find the best way to run this deck! Haha
