Hey there!! I've been futzing with a mardu knights list for quite a while, and always like to see more of the same. Haakon can get really tricksy with changeling stuff, and I especially like it with Crib Swap and have always wanted to experiment with Nameless Inversion.

I'd also potentially recommend Phyrexian Reclamation in place of either tortured existence or maybe oversold cemetery? I can definitely see the value of tortured with the vocus on reanimator ,but oversold seems slow and situational. I also think Entomb would have a nice home here to get you haakon in the graveyard just that more often.

loricatuslupus on EDH - Reanimator: Kaalia of the Vast

Hello fellow Kaalia enthusiast! Inserts obligatory link to my own deck: Still Better than Dan Brown.... Right, with that out of the way...firstly, I notice that while you call this a reanimator deck and have plenty of ways to cheat things out of the graveyard, you're missing things to stack it with. Cards like Entomb and Buried Alive would let you sculpt your graveyard into the perfect stockpile of threats. If you didn't already have loads I would recommend another actual wrath over Terminus considering you have more ways to get creatures back out of the graveyard than your library, but with that being the case you might be better off with either more unconditional removal (Vindicate/Anguished Unmaking) or even Armageddon if you don't mind having no friends. Aurelia's Fury and Boros Charm are great modal spells too! Honestly can't recommend Reconnaissance highly enough but Dust Corona and Phyrexian Reclamation do work for me. As for creatures, I wouldn't bother with Bloodgift Demon (take Rune-Scarred Demon for loops with Reya and a sac outlet such as Razaketh, the Foulblooded); Bogardan Hellkite (you'll probably do more overall with Warstorm Surge or the new Terror of the Peaks); Indulgent Tormentor (your opponents won't ever hesitate to pay the cost and the body is underwhelming for a demon); Vampire Nighthawk (good card but this deck can do better, for similar cost a Magus of the Moat or Grand Abolisher can make you very hard to assail). I'd suggest considering Avacyn, Angel of Hope, Doom Whisperer and Rakdos, Lord of Riots as other strong picks for potential upgrades. Finally you've got a decent mana base, but I'm a little surprised to see no fetches/utility lands like Volrath's Stronghold considering you have actual legacy duals. How can you be running a Scrubland but be unable to upgrade your Forsaken Sanctuary to a Godless Shrine and still be playing with Temple of the False God? This last one is one of the worst lands out there considering it can easily be a dead draw and doesn't even give you colour - you're running plenty of basics so even an Evolving Wilds would be better in almost every case! Anyways hope that's given you some ideas.

I have also made a Kathril list, feel free to check it out for inspiration BWGs Life. Some stuff I say here is in that deck list description. The biggest thing is that you can get all the keywords you need to one hit in this deck with just three creatures in your graveyard.

Zetalpa, Primal Dawn and Bassara Tower Archer OR Knight of Malice and Kunoros, Hound of Athreos OR Vampire Nighthawk will get you there. This helps specifically with Buried Alive. Jarad's Orders and Entomb would be good for placing critical creatures in the yard.

I also think these cards that just draw like Night's Whisper can be replaced by similar costed cards that put more things in your graveyard like Winding Way. IMO just drawing cards is not really that good if you can't set up your commander.

I also think some of the creature choices could be better, you can get more keywords for less mana.

Buried Alive and Entomb are way too good to cut from Meren, since they allow you to tutor for the creatures you need and then use Meren to bring them to the battlefield.

kalfred16 - I would cut Buried Alive and Entomb, IIRC they don't trigger Meren's first ability. Maybe also include some more ramp? Birds of Paradise, Deathrite Shaman and a few other mana dorks?

Guth, Mythos of Brokkos is definitely too much mana for just an Entomb effect, but I think I should add a category of cards that tutor to the graveyard! Thanks :)

There are some non-budget upgrades you could make if you're looking to go all-in on the deck, but these are just generically good Golgari things... Abrupt Decay and Assassin's Trophy are top-tier removal, extra tutors if you want to lean on your combos like Demonic Tutor, Entomb, and Diabolic Intent, and smoothing out the manabase with fetches, Overgrown Tomb, and Phyrexian Tower. I think multimedia handled a lot of the cheaper upgrades above.
