UB Reanimator: 42nd at SCG Syracuse Legacy Open

http://www.starcitygames.com/decks/127372

Yeah it's still uncounterable way to bin a fattie. The discard mode is still relevant and so is the -2/-2 creature mode. it can handle a baleful strix that's in your way or containment priest that...

I go back and forth. Currently running them. I think there are a number of us who have tried it if you scroll through the last 6 or so pages of this thread.

Fair point.

Has anyone been testing Spellseeker?

What's the play you have in mind with deserted temple?

Tap sol land -> use 1 mana, tap deserted temple, untap sol land -> tap sol land = 3 mana.

or

Tap sol land -> tap any other land = 3...

I don't disagree, however, those grindy match ups usually have some form of incremental creature damage that drops your life total to a point where it gets difficult to use Reanimate and...

Maybe they'll give us back Mystical Tutor ;)

I have yet to try the pack rat plan personally so I can't comment on that.

Good call on exhume being weaker vs czech pile.

I hardly ever board out FoW. I run a 4/3 split between FoW and Daze...

A traditional UB Reanimator build made top 8 in the last legacy challenge:

I thought the 4/2 split between Animate Dead and Exhume was...

An interesting take on UB:

4x Chancellor, 4x Dark Ritual, No FoW, Defense Grid from the sideboard.

Yeah one nice thing about a reanimated Chancellor is it keeps Daze alive later in the game.

Only 12 lands too! And thought I was skirting the minimum with 14. Though he did make room for Dark Ritual.

I cut Forgemaster recently... too much Grixis Delver and their stifles.


4 Metalworker
4 Walking Ballista
4 Lodestone Golem
2 Wurmcoil Engine

2 Ugin, The Spirit Dragon

In my opinion:

Going into an unknown match you lead with Thoughtseize vs a cantrip 9/10 times. Unless that cantrip allows you to combo that turn with protection. For example, my deck would allow a...

I really like that you're running 12 reanimation spells (including Show and Tell). I'm only running 8 and I'd like to make room for more but I can't do it without sacrificing speed or protection.
...

Oh... well there goes that then :)

Thanks for catching that. I'm running a Lim-Dul's Vault in the main as well. Although it might become a 3rd ponder, and Collective Brutality might become a 3rd Thoughtseize... I'm always tinkering.
...

I actually moved all my show and tells to the SB after playing in a tournament last Thursday - and am now running 1 Collective Brutality main.

My deck looks like this now:


4 chancellor of the...

I picked up this deck after it seemed to fall out of favor. As a long time Metalworker player, I realized how inexpensive it would be to pivot into this build so I gave it a shot and I'm enjoying it....

We still have some answers in our 75, notably Tidespout Tyrant and Pithing Needle.

Also, it's pretty slow. We're still faster.

I'm sure this has been discussed in the past, but what is the consensus on running Misdirection out of the sideboard when on the draw as a Daze replacement?

Daze gets weaker when you're on the...

Thanks, that's what I thought.

I was playing UB Reanimator vs 4c Control. Leovold was in play, I careful studied to bin a fatty and we weren't sure how that should play out.

With Leovold in play. Can an opponent cast a careful study, fail to draw cards, but still be able to discard?

Also, with Leovold in play. Can an opponent brainstorm, fail to draw, but still place...

Thanks for the feedback!

No there is no actual construct synergy other than Cavern.

The thought process with Scrap Trawler is that it recurs spent artifacts. With Scrap Trawler on the board a...
