The goal of this deck is to generate value through dies triggers/graveyard shenanigans in combination with Vannifar's incredible sac ability. Search for Azcanta and the explore package allows us to simultaneously filter through our deck to find Vannifar and put pieces into our graveyard that can either be brought back with one of our recursion pieces or muldrotha later in the game or are called Reassembling Skeleton. Reassembling Skeleton is a 4 of simply because it can be used to repeatedly fetch 3 drops from the deck, such as Dimir Informant if we need to dig for a certain piece, Jadelight if we need a versatile board presence, Reaper if we want to get more value from our sacs, or Mirror Image if we would like to copy one of our other pieces. However, I am considering dropping the playset in favor of a better two drop, such as Orzhov Enforcer. The 4 drops in this deck all either have great etb effects that act as either removal or recursion. In the 5 drop slot we have biogenic ooze, which is a fantastic way to immediately build our board while also somewhat synergizing with Vannifar, protecting her from any top-deck lava coils later in the game. Doom Whisperer simply allows us to dig through our deck while also being a fantastic flying body. Finally, to top off our chain we have Muldrotha, the Gravetide. Muldrotha works extremely well with our graveyard theme, and allows us to immediately recur whatever we sacrificed to put her into play if we've hit our land drops. As for the sideboard, I am still looking for creatures that can provide this deck with maximum versatility or with very situational enter the battlefield or exit the battlefield triggers. I am still a relative novice when it comes to 60-card constructed deck building, so any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
