Pre-ordered the Abzan precon, and this is my first attempt at upgrading it.

General strategy is to fill up the graveyard and make a huge Kathril, or cast Living Death with a bunch of powerful creatures in your graveyard.

The dream is casting Buried Alive and finding Bassara Tower Archer, Kunoros, Hound of Athreos and Zetalpa, Primal Dawn. This will give Kathril 9 +1/+1 counters and Flying, Double Strike, Vigilance, Trample, Indestructible, Menace, Lifelink, Hexproof and Reach! As long as no one has something like Merciless Eviction, Cyclonic Rift or Grave Pact, you should be able to start taking out your opponents one by one with an incredibly difficult to remove monster.

Since you are dumping some very powerful creatures in your graveyard, reanimation spells like Animate Dead and Reanimate can bring back some cool creatures for cheap.

Let me know what you think and what I could change.
