Turn 1 almost any creature? Yes please
Swamp, Dark Ritual, Entomb, Reanimate
Other good options would be Exhume, or Animate Dead of course, built a deck around these and some other cards and Sheoldred, Whispering One
(Other cards in my deck are, Putrid Imp, Rune-Scarred Demon, Buried Alive, oh and It That Betrays so when they sac their creatures with Sheoldred I steal them :)

Umm, good luck with plan, bparx, considering BOTH of those won't be in your graveyard when you try get them...

You'd think they might change the art of this by now.
Truthfully, I'm not a huge fan of it, but it is a very... black... design.
Just looking at the stretched skin gives me goosebumps... brrrrr!

Emrakul seems to be a popular target for this, which is interesting, since he never is in a graveyard long enough to be reanimated. Proves that your games are so casual that no one actually reads the cards, that you didn't think your strategy through all the way before posting it, or that you lied about your "I did this amazing thing in this game once" story.

Opening hand with this, one swamp, and Emrakul or other big nasty like Blightsteel colossus. Turn one, don't play anything, discard the biggie, Second turn, pull the biggie, third turn wreck face. True, if they hit you for 5 by the end of the 3rd turn you're screwed, but barring that, it would work.

Yes to Blightsteel, no to Emrakul. Check him out, if he hits the graveyard, you shuffle him back into your library. You need cards that are fatties that will stay in the graveyard (so no Progenitus, either). I recommend Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur and Sphinx of the Steel Wind.

Because I could not stop for Death, he kindly stopped for fattie.

Sad that Griselbrand is banned in EDH? Don't fret! Rune-Scarred Demon is perfect fodder for this and for all the Clone effects you can spam!
