I've used this for a while with Reya Dawnbringer. It creates a cool combo with corpse connoisseur and hell's caretaker in which I animate the caretaker with reya then, next turn, reya brings back the connoisseur who entombs a creature and then caretaker sacs the connoiseur to animate the entombed creature. I use Empyrial Archangel (goes great with Reya, making me very hard to damage, seeing as even if you kill the Archangel, Reya can bring her back), angel of despair (If she's in my graveyard with hell's caretaker and Reya in play, I can bring her in with Reya and then sac her to the caretaker to bring her back with the caretaker, thus vindicating two permanents) and I'm about to try realm razer to repeatedly exile any lands as a smash with Reya.
... too bad entomb got unbanned and Iona was printed, making all my progress feel obsolete. Oh well, I still have ... (see all)

@Qazior:
_I_ use this with 4 Demigods... and with 4 Xathrid Demons, and with 4 Living Death, and with 4 Dark Rituals. Nasty.

Great card at its time, probably the key card that struck reanimator to come about.

I love this artwork, its great claustrophobia inducing goodness from Mr. Staples.

My favorite use of this card is the following :
-
T1 : Swamp, Dark Ritual, Buried Alive (search for Bladewing the Risen, Dragon Tyrant and Anger)
T2 : Mountain, Exhume Bladewing. The Tyrant comes into play too, with Bladewing's ability. Swing for 16 with both.
T3 : Enemy has 4 life left. Bladewing's a 4/4. The rest is up to you.

I like this because it combines my inner Johnny (Dragon reanimation combo), my inner Timmy (BIG DRAGON TYRANT!BBQLOLZ!) and my inner Spike (Turn 2 damage is, without a doubt, SUPER EFFECTIVE). All wrapped up in one.
