Creatures that shuffle into the library from the grave?

I'm currently making a Sidisi, Brood Tyrant self mill deck and i'm trying to find all the cards in Sultai colors that shuffle into the library when they are put in the grave, such as Vigor or Worldspine Wurm. Any suggestions?

well there's Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre and Kozilek, Butcher of Truth if you're willing to run Eldrazi.

You can do a relatively simple search for this yourself through Gatherer. You can use the advanced search options to restrict to BUG (and colorless) and then input 'shuffle into library' for the card text. That should pretty much produce every single creature that does what you want.

Guile and Dread are two great options for this. You also want options like Wonder and Genesis to give boosts from the graveyard.

be careful of Blightsteel Colossus that one never actually goes to the graveyard.

Run stuff like Reminisce too.

Here is the gatherer search which yields all creatures which when they enter the graveyard will shuffle themselves into the library:

Loaming Shaman also shuffles any card/s you want into your deck or your opponent's deck.

Honestly, I'd say you would want your graveyard creatures to have effects from the graveyard, like the new Soul Avatars (Soul of New Phyrexia) and the Incarnations (Wonder). Those two cycles alone give you seven creatures to do stuff after being milled. Here's my Sidisi deck for example: MagicalHacker - Sidisi, Brood Tyrant.

However, here are are the creatures that will enter and then shuffle, rather than shuffle into the library instead (which is important, because the replacement effect won't trigger Sidisi): Click me!

Thanks for all the ideas everyone. It gives me a good base to start at.
