im currently using it with Platinum Emperion using it with Unmarked Grave is a pretty good set up. Possessed Portal is a crazy card but i wouldnt know how to build around it.

The only moderately successful Possessed Portal build I've seen used Abundance to fake-draw lands to make tokens for Rampaging Baloths. There's probably much better options now.
Platinum Emperion should work fine in a control deck as long as you can protect it.

Dakkon, Shadow Slayer, I assume.
I haven't seen the ultimate used in Modern, but I've seen it set up a Sharuum the Hegemon loop in Commander. I can envision it setting up a Possessed Portal lock, or a Kaldra Compleat or Batterskull beat.
isn't a color set that churns out lands, so you're either going to surveil and fill your graveyard for several turns, maybe proliferate a bit, or you're within range of casting a Gearhulk or Wurmcoil Engine or whatever anyway. So it basically comes down to what you want to reanimate/freecast, and I don't have any specific suggestions there.
