Decided to build a reanimate deck and this is what I came up with. Why taigam? why not taigam. should it be scarab god? Who's to say. Actually, I say - I think Taigam is a significantly better win-more card that isn't as susceptible to removal because it's truly dorky, it doesn't feel good to remove. Why play blue/black? "What about artifacts and enchantments" you ask. What about them? "Somebody will rest in peace!" you say. Just hard cast everything, it's a lab man deck. That's why you play blue/black, to lean into creatures that draw so many cards that casting them on curve doesn't feel horrible. Instead of a "reanimate toolbox" I run a clone package. What's more fun than two sire of stagnations?
