This is a pauper reanimator deck (just in case you couldn't tell by the name). It is able to consistenly get an Ulamog's Crusher into the bin and cheat it out turn 2 at the earliest, but more consistently turn 3-5. Otherwise, it has a lot of disruption in order to stay alive and control the board. Let's get on to card choices, shall we?

Discard Outlets

Careful Study : digs deep for what we need and discards the Ulamog's Crusher and even also the Dragon Breath . Best discard in the deck.

Owl Familiar : provides a flyer to block a Delver of Secrets   if need be and lets you draw and discard.

Reanimee

Ulamog's Crusher is ran as the reanimee because it is the biggest most impactful common that just wins you the game if your opponent has no answer. The nice thing is you can play it with counter protection.

Disruption

Duress : great for clearing the way of counters, and you can even target yourself if you don't have a discard spell.

Snuff Out : excellent underused removal. Free removal is always unexpected and useful.

Negate : protects your Ulamog's Crusher from counter and removal.

Draw

Brainstorm : adds loads of consistency to the deck, easily the best draw spell in the format. Digs so deep.

Thought Scour : can mill an Ulamog's Crusher into your bin and then allow you to turn 2 Exhume . Pretty sweet. Also adds more consistency to the deck.

Reanimator

Exhume is the best reanimator spell in the format. A cheap two to reanimate anything you want, and it doesn't even help your opponent out that much compared to how much it helps you.

Other

Dragon Breath : excellent to discard in addition to Ulamog's Crusher as it applies haste to it, so you can often end the game easily on turn 4.

Sideboard

With my sideboard, I like to have cards that are good against more general strategies and a wide variety of decks, like aggro, control, midrange, etc..

Snuff Out : there are some matchups where you want more removal, like Tron.

Essence Scatter : useful against heavy creature decks like mono-green stompy and goblins to prevent them from getting too out of control with their board-state.

Hydroblast : wins you games against red decks.

Dispel : for heavy control decks.

Negate : also for control decks, and is good against sorcery speed removal.

Chainer's Edict : good against decks that I want more removal for and great against decks like Tron that want to win with one powerful creature.

Dragon Wings : great against decks with a lot of fliers or Delver decks.
