I built this with cEDH / High Power EDH in mind, sadly, Aminatou, the Fateshifter is at this state no match to Zur the Enchanter and will thus see no real play in cEDH besides the occasional spice. I'll try this in my High Power playgroup for the funsies since I am a reanimator fanboy. If there are any questions, recommendations and the like, fell free to drop them.

No Timetwister, Lion's Eye Diamond or Duals for budget reasons.

Custom categories are available for those who enjoy a more structured view.

Plan A:

• Aminatou, the Fateshifter + Felidar Guardian + Altar of the Brood = infinite mill (assuming no one runs Kozilek, Butcher of Truth / Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre)

• Aminatou, the Fateshifter + Felidar Guardian + Vela the Night-Clad = infinite damage

Plan B:

• Restoration Angel can be used as a backup tool to blink Felidar Guardian in case Aminatou, the Fateshifter gets removed

The reanimation pack, counter spells, tutors, Yawgmoth's Will and Pull from Eternity should be enough to accomplish plan A or B - if this proves to be wrong, I'll have to delve into:

Alternative Wincons:

• assuming one uses Rest in Peace / Leyline of the Void one could also go for Helm of Obedience which can be either flickered by Aminatou, the Fateshifter / Felidar Guardian or Flicker

• other combo variants (including a needed fourth / fifth combo piece) seem to slow, The Chain Veil / Oath of Teferi offer interesting interactions - I'll ponder.

I really dig the reanimator (sub)theme (played Kess, Dissident Mage as combo reanimator) and thus I might have went a little heavy on it. Memories of the heavy impact of an early Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur / Nezahal, Primal Tide came up and the thirst has to be stilled again, even tho that might not be the "best" plan. Flash Necromancy + Kederekt Leviathan locks boards as well and it clears the coast for comboing when used EOT.

Cheers
