Planet of Pain is a 4 color reanimator/storm combo deck, utilizing a critical mass of tutors and fast mana to reanimate a Griselbrand. The deck takes parts of other Griselbrand combo decks such as Children of Korlis and the Lion's Eye Diamond+Unburial Rites combo and using Shallow Grave to give Grisel haste, as well as elements of T.E.S. such as Burning Wish and Echo of Eons.

Why Echo of Eons? Echo allows the deck to quickly dump mana into play and then refuel, hopefully continuing the Echo chain or enabling a reanimation attempt. However, there is tension because any Griselbrands in the graveyard will be shuffled in.

Why Burning Wish? Wish allows the deck to set up kills and tutor for our unique win condition: Sickening Dreams!

Speaking of Sickening Dreams, why use it? Dreams bypasses veil of summer, hexproof, and we will always survive because of Children of Korlis.
