Thanks for commenting,

I read some of these comments and I can definitely commend Harvester of Souls . Sadly, the second I played him he was stolen and I had to stare at him doing a great job for the wrong team. As for suggestions, I would consider adding in Lich Lord of Unx , he makes tokens and can provide you another win-con (he's saved my ass before). I like your addition of 'rattle-snake-like spells' that make your opponents Think Twice about wiping the board. But how do effects like Blood Artist work for you? I like to shy away from spells that only target one person, which is why I only run Vela (considering Vengeful Dead from you). Lastly, I think you need a Buried Alive in here. I usually dump Gravecrawler , Undead Gladiator (not to be underestimated), and Wonder or a fat creature. From there, things seem to go your way a lot easier. Thats about all I have for now, although I could think of more probably, not implying anything... haha. Welp, +1 from me!

uk232,

I am very seriously considering running Puppeteer Clique if for no other reason than he can be eaten by Grimgrin twice and brings a tasty snack with him both times he dies. You cant complain about a 5 CMC creature that can give Grimgrin 4 counters and with a punisher like Blood Artist on the field that's 4 damage as well.

As for Mimic Vat I used to run that but I dont have all that many come into play effects so I pulled it and put it in my Kaalia deck Kaalia's Wrath that is currently under renovation.

Thanks for the suggestions!

montazum10,

I used to run Lich Lord of Unx but I never really got much action out of him, of the 4-5 times I have cast him he resulted in a token only once so I pulled him for better token generators.

As for Blood Artist I swear by that card, I have never been disappointed to see it! You don't have to be a jerk and direct all the damage to one opponent. When I am sacing multiple creatures I try to spread the "love" around. ;)

Vengeful Dead is a great card if you run enough zombies he was actually the inspiration for the attrition sub-theme in this deck.

As for Buried Alive and I highly recommend it (it's essentially a fantastic tutor in a reanimator deck); however, I don't run it because I have had bad luck with it either my graveyard gets exiled or someone starts stealing my good creatures out of it. But you are right I should put it back in and I am considering it.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Adding a few non-basic lands couldn't hurt, Darkslick Shores , Creeping Tar Pit , Underground River .

Gravespawn Sovereign is a pretty nasty guy, helps keep you moving as quickly as possible

Exsanguinate is also really good, if you have a larger play group.

Have you ever been interested in running the Phylactery Lich +Worldslayer combo?
