Gifts won't work with Mannequin. The Giant will be sacrificed before the Gifts is attached to it.

I think this is borderline good. I would probably up the Gift of Immortality count to 2, because you shouldn't have too much of a problem casting it if it gets into your hand. I would also up the Boonweaver Giant count to 2, because theoretically it gets it into the graveyard twice as fast.

Would you consider splashing green for Birds of Paradise and Golgari Grave-Troll? I feel like it would help in case you get stuck and had to hardcast the giant. And if you did that maybe you could add a copy of Unburial Rites? So it wouldnt matter if it got dredged, you could just flash it back.

PlattBonnay thanks for your suggestions added Unburial Rites can't believe i missed that as well as Dakmor Salvage for added dredge and Plains for the event of hard casting. thanks again if you could throw a little play test on it and let me know what you think.

Gifts Ungiven is always a wonderful card here. If you are willing to splash blue that is.

Femme_Fatale: Ill play a Golgari Thug for returning Grim Haruspex to the top of my library? Are we seriously doing this?

I automatically +1 just cause Im a fan of Fugazi, then I looked over your build and really enjoyed all the synergies!

Nice work :D

YES >:D

I'll path it then, then play Rest in Peace for shits and giggles.

Anyways, my main criticism of this deck is that there are too many times where you would not get it out on turn 4. Dredge only returns to your hand, so you are required to spend mana to be able to draw a card. The reanimators themselves are costly too, generally making you wait until around turn 5.

Enchant is targeting by the way.

I agree with BlueSlime in the Gifts Ungiven suggestion. I mean it automatically can stick 2 of either Stinkweed Imp, Golgari Thug, Raven's Crime, Unburial Rites, Dakmor Salvage, Darkblast and Boonweaver Giant into discard, allowing you to be a lot more resilient against game plans. You can also find yourself some more beneficial dredge mechanics that you may only want as one ofs in this deck so you can abuse with Gifts Ungiven.

Having blue also gives you important counterspells that you can use against the plethora of graveyard hate there is in the modern meta. It is almost if not more plentiful than artifact hate.

but Femme_Fatale you are not casting nor are you enchanting the Boonweaver Giant the text is "put it onto the battlefield attached to Boonweaver Giant" Epochalyptik (burns 6 3 eyed goats) am i incorrect? ill certainly give some consideration to all suggestions and work towards a possible edit I'm just weary of making something expensive and garbage.

Femme_Fatale: all good fetch a Plains thanks for the ramp/fix play 2nd Heartless Summoning cast Boonweaver Giant for . wink.

In addition to a blue splash for Gifts, it also gets funny when cantrips like Serum Visions read "Dredge 6; Scry 2" or better yet Thought Scour reads "Put the top 2 cards of your library into your graveyard; Dredge 6" etc :3

January 23, 2015 12:07 a.m.

Femme_Fatale says... #15

So Thought Scour becomes dredge 8. Does Esper Charm then become dredge 12? I see a new method of self milling here. Or hey, Esper Charm can also be an enabler for future dredge 6's! Esper Charm seems like THE auto include because of it's versatility.

BlueSlime says... #16

It most certainly does!

January 23, 2015 12:38 a.m.

digikevin97 says... #20

+1 thanks for the help

January 23, 2015 10:32 p.m.

This deck is hilarious, yet it sounds like it could go off somewhat consistently... I dig. +1

BlueSlime says... #22

aww man, thanks for the cred <3 you didnt have to :p +1

WARPOPE says... #23

Femme_Fatale BlueSlime what do you think about Tymaret, the Murder King as a means to sac Boonweaver Giant at instant speed in response to removal or if hardcasted and only having the Gift of Immortality i could then fetch the eldrazi aura.

Femme_Fatale says... #24

There are much better alternatives hateindigital. What's better is something that gives it shroud or hexproof. I say this because when Gift of Immortality procs the return to battlefield effect of Boonweaver Giant, you can now get another enchantment. One that gives hexproof would make your life so much easier.

I also like Flickerform, but I think that is being too greedy.

WARPOPE says... #25

Flickerform is amazing thanks so much Femme_Fatale I've put in one tymaret as it is a sac engine that works from the graveyard which is the synergy here id like this to operate out of the grave yard swell as other zones.
