About DH:
DH gives your opponent the opportunity to play for free as well : I do not contest this point but I feel that the effect is not that symetrical as written on the card.
For...

First of all, props to Lejay and Jo_la_Loose that elaborated the vast majority of design choices of the list. Props also to emidln for sharing his take on Omnihalls.

While acknowledging to the GP...

This.
You don't want to rely any more on your graveyard than necessary. SCM can surely do nifty tricks but overall I'd rather play my opponent's to my convenience.
This could alternatively push...

Just for the sake of sharing a good story, here it comes :
Against BUGw, game 1, on a mull to 5, I kept a hand with Gitaxian Probe / Scrubland / Fetch / Cabal / Silence
Probe shows Pierce,...

Though Tin Fins and NLR share a fair amount of similarities, their plan is indeed different (and nonetheless defined).
I'm quite impressed with the Tin Fins list both in terms of consistancy and...

As I'm concerned, I'm toying with Tin Fins concept ATM, thus putting NLR in standby.
Your analysis is accurate as Tin Fins popularity proves Instant speed Reanimation to be a valid concept.

Congrats on finish !

Is this Griselbrand/Goryo's Vengeance a real thing ? :smile:

Yes it is.
But the purpose of available mana during the main phase is, as far as reanimator is concerned, to reanimate stuff.
Instant speed reanimation allows NLR to animate in response of pesky...

As an illustration of the green splash I'm currently testing, here's the list in its most recent shape.



MD, the only change worth noting is the swap between Animate Dead and Exhume for...

Returning after a long break, I've read carefully the new inputs on the list.



I do agree that DRS is not a clear concern for us as opposed to Classic Reanimator lists which are severely...

The truth is that Griselbrand is the sole reason to run such a deck given the constraints Jin Gitaxias and Emrakul bring on their own.
Nice recap on your thoughts.

Right now, Death-Rite Shaman...

I owe you an apology on overlooking the part of your list you truly wanted feedback on. I'll get to that in a few lines.

I'm sincerely surprised reading that a reanimated Griselbrand is "not an...

@Dameus :
Regarding the list you posted, don't you think that Berserk is a really good definition of the danger of cool things ?
I mean, yes, given you get an access to green you can pack it...

One of my first drafts of the deck I considered viable and tournament worthly was all 4 and 4 on Instant speed reanimation spells. Practicing, I began noticing that despite their similarities I found...

First of all, this deck doesn't (-and really shouldn't-) run Reanimate as a Reanimation Spell. Goryo's Vengeance and Shallow Grave being favored for the exact same reason Tin Fins runs them and...

Bojuka ? You must be refering to Boseiju I suppose : This sideboard slot is pretty efficient nowadays. Very few Miracles decks run the full Wasteland Set. A lot tend to run only 2 or cut them to run...

I'm happy to see that the deck still gets played from time to time.

Overall, I think the edition of Rest in Peace doesn't put us in a great spot against UW Miracle as newer lists tend to pack this...

recurring nightmare needs a sac target, which will be systematically problematic : Before your first reanimation, you don't have any bare the lone Hapless Researcher. After, well, it's game over...

It's called Griselbrand Reanimator because the thread is named "Griselbrand Reanimator".
Duh !

:wink:

On a more serious note, I think the deck was originaly called Griselbrand Reanimator...

Lotus Petal is in the list mainly to :
- Dodge Daze
- Reach for instant mana to Stifle EOT Exile Triggers
- Allow for T1: Draw Discard => T2: 2 mana Reanimation

Some of those slots usually get...

@phazonmuant:
As I said some posts earlier, I do think the correct way to implement Dark Ritual in the pack is to simply go the storm path as in Tin Fins (which I look at quite often, congrats...

Regarding the lasted list prestend, a minor adjustment has been made with the replacement of the lone Hapless Researcher with a Maindeck Darkblast.

This choice was made to help G1 against Maverick...

Additional Reanimation:
Animate Dead is still my favorite. Exhume is dangerous at times: You really never want to force a Knight of the Reliquary to give it back to your opponent later. Never....

@ Kryptor:

First of all, Instant Reanimation stands as protection in both our lists.
T1 Dump => EOT T2 Reanimation to lure counters from your opp => T3 Reanimation again with Counter backup (this...

The list previously shown went through some minor changes, mostly to gain in consistency :

// Lands
4 [ON] Polluted Delta
4 [ZEN] Marsh Flats
4 [R] Underground Sea
2 [ISD] Swamp (1)
1 [ISD]...
