Havengul Lich

Creature — Zombie Wizard

: You may cast target creature from a graveyard this turn. When you cast that card this turn, Havengul Lich gains all activated abilities of that card until end of turn.

Thanks for your feedback! I appreciate the help on this deck as for The Scarab God I'd replace Havengul Lich since Scarab does his job better. For Secrets of the Dead I run River Kelpie since it does the same effect but for each player not just my own and can also combo with mikeaus, the unhallowed if you have a sac outlet. For the Liliana's Reaver I'd run Mindleech Ghoul as it's faster to get cards out of all my opponents hands.

Both Gisa and Geralf and Havengul Lich are exceptional at providing you with very powerful recursion (even stealing in Lich's case); I can't recommend these enough.

Gray Merchant of Asphodel - life drain/gain. Bounce him a few times for maximum benefit

Havengul Lich - reanimation source. Has underperformed in games for me. Borderline

Headless Rider - tokens

Midnight Reaper - card draw

Murderous Rider - spot removal if needed. Versatile

Noxious Ghoul - one-sided board wipe potential

Plague Belcher - potential sac outlet, death trigger payoff

Relentless Dead - recurrence, reanimate

Shepherd of Rot - life drain. ALL players. Don't kill yourself...

Sidisi, Undead Vizier - tutor, sac outlet and big body

Undead Augur - card draw

Wilhelt, the Rotcleaver - alternate commander. Tokens and sac outlet

Zombie Master - reanimation, swampwalk. Nice when Urborg is on the field!!

If the front-face of a modal DFC is a creature and the back face is a non-land, Havengul Lich will allow you to cast either side (lands are "played", not "cast", so you won't be able to play the land face this way). If a rule or effect allows you to cast something, you can cast either side of a modal DFC if it satisfies whatever restrictions the effect put in place. The "target creature card" in the text of the Lich's ability only defines what kind of card you're allowed to choose as a target for the ability, not what kind of spell you're allowed to cast.

Havengul Lich says I can cast target creature card in a graveyard. It doesn't say thing else limiting that casting. So I assume yes, but I want to be sure.

Adventure and MDFC for reference.

desmondwrite: I actually have to disagree with you about Fell Stinger. It does it all! It's a deathtoucher, it sacrifices a creature, it draws, and it's very recurrable in this deck. For three mana, it puts in a ton of work.

I think I want to keep Noosegraf Mob for now, because in my games I've found that I don't have as many token producers as I'd like. However, I've been very on the fence about Sun Titan. I have been holding on to it because it can return lands so I can hit high notes like Rise of the Dark Realms, but mostly I haven't been that impressed with its performance. I'm swapping it with Havengul Lich.

Thanks for your advice!
