And now, the top . . . two . . . side/main board creatures for a 4x dark ritual entomb exhume deck:
1. Iona, Shield of Emeria for any mono-color opponent
2. Thraximundar for, um, anyone else
There is no greater/faster aggro-control than the aggro-control this card enables. 6/5 stars

@dragonking987 that is if you only have 1 creature in your graveyard

Reanimator decks can be absolutely brutal. This card is one of the reasons why.

This card is the key combo piece of most all old res decks and today it is even more insane due to all the huge freaking creatures there are now. It was a very sad day when Krosan Cloudscraper was overtook. :(

This thing is just as nuts if not more so in Pauper.
Step One: Discard, via one the babillion outlets, something big such as Twisted Abomination or Ulamog's Crusher.
Step Two: Exhume it.

Evil card, just use Buried Alive or discard creature cards into your graveyard then cast this for some evil laughter while your opponent wonders how he/she is going to stop you
Reanimator decks are unique, cos almost no other decks will actively pitch creatures into graveyards unless they are doing some sort of combo or running stuff that needs to stay in the graveyard like Anger
5/5

Turn 2:Exhume......and the rest history.

back to basics wasn't really that broken. It's a hate card that's used by merfolk sometimes, but that's it. Smokestack wasn't really broken either, it fulfills a niche in stax decks, but no other deck runs it at all.
