At last, the Pauper Reanimator deck I've been waiting for! This deck has three ways to attack with a 5/4 trampler or 6/4 on turn 2. In increasing levels of complexity:

  • Get a big creature into your graveyard. Cast Exhume. Attack.

  • Get a big creature into the graveyard. Cast Dark Ritual into a hardcast Dread Return. Attack.

  • Get Dread Return and a big creature into the graveyard. Sacrifice an artifact land for Kuldotha Rebirth, and flashback Dread Return. Attack.

Faithless Looting, Careful Study, and Stream of Thought help develop your hand and graveyard. It's usually better to play these before your land drop, since this deck has tight color requirements, and drawing into a better land sequence can easily speed a play up by a turn.

Like pretty much every Reanimator deck, an ideal starting hand has a big creature, a way to get it into the graveyard, a way to get it out of the graveyard, and the mana to let this all happen. A good starting hand has two of Faithless Looting/Careful Study, a big creature, and mana. Anything less than that, and you need to get lucky with draws and top decks.

(Update this when you get a chance.)
