Just throwing some reanimator stuff together based on cards I have in paper copy.

SUGGESTIONS WELCOME

CREATURES

Ashen Rider is at the peak end of the mana curve, but as Whip fodder or as a reanimation he can swing momentum quickly. Concerned about his high cost? Well, if you're deep into the game, which this deck typically stretches into, this guy drops and exiles whatever is stopping you from closing the game. (Edit: This guy is constantly in and out of the lists.) He shines brightest in combination with Rescue from the Underworld .
Doomwake Giant: "Tokens? What tokens? Were there tokens bothering you?" Superstar against red decks.
Merciless Executioner (sideboard) gives me an opportunity to answer some of the pesky hexproofs and regenerators in standard right now, like a monstrous Fleecemane Lion; a silugmar the drifting death; Rakshasa Deathdealer ; or Thunderbreak Regent (without taking the Regent's bolt).

SPELLS/OTHER

Banishing Light (REMOVED) hits almost anything and can be found through Commune with the Gods while we're also fishing for a Whip or creature. A pair of these can change the game if you use them wisely.
Murderous Cut kills creatures for as little as , and what's wrong with that? Satyr Wayfinder feeds the delve, meaning you're using it on Turn-3 if needed.

Top 4 (Maybe more) — April 25, 2015

Edit

R1: W2-0 vs. Mardu; G1 was a Rhino stampede, and G2 was the Whip. | MVP: Siege Rhino
R2: W2-1 vs. Red Deck Wins; A typically 50/50 matchup where perhaps I pulled the match out due to some unlucky draws by my opponent. Even cards like Jungle Hollow have value in this matchup just for the small bits of lifegain. | MVP: Whip of Erebos
R3: W2-1 vs. Red Dash; This wasn't easy and required every removal spell I could find since Impact Tremors works quite well with guys like Goblin Heelcutter and Mardu Scout, as well as keeping up burn with Dragon Fodder. I barely won with 2 health in G3, but pulled it out thanks to Whip, a Rhino, and Giant. | MVP: Reclamation Sage (vs. Impact Tremors) and Doomwake Giant (goblin wiper and out of Roast range).
R4: Took a draw for a guaranteed entry into Top 8.
T8: W2-0 vs. Mardu; My opponent had a hard time drawing creatures (and keeping them on the board with all my removal). | MVP: Murderous Cut (vs. Stormbreath Dragon) and Reclamation Sage (vs. Whip of Erebos and Mardu Ascendancy)
