Everyone Gets a Big ol' Chaos Warp

Commander / EDH* BRG (Jund) Reanimator Theme/Gimmick

Nice card you spoiled there, would be a shame if someone immediately built a commander deck out of it.

Well, let's just say that I liked the look of Vaevictis, he's Jund, he makes people sacrifice their own things (which you choose mind you), he's got an all around sweet abusable ability, I saw real potential.

The Plan

You'll want to try and get Vaevictis out as soon as possible then once he's out, you'll want to do two things: One get a creature out that you can sacrifice repeatedly. This comes in the form of Bloodghast, Squee, the Immortal, Reassembling Skeleton, Bloodsoaked Champion, just to name a few options. The second thing you'll want to do is manipulate the top card of your library. Thank Wizards for not making Vaevictis make us shuffle for his trigger, now we can get to business. You know how Worldly and Vampiric Tutor are so good? They just became better, and now you can even use their cheap versions Sylvan Tutor and Imperial Seal for the same effectiveness, now these cards have an actual home instead of cards people have to look to for budget reasons.

Gameplay

From playtesting experience, you'll most likely want to not draw attention to yourself. Most people look at your commander and laugh, we'll show them! It's not impossible to get Vaevictis out turn 4, but don't do that. This isn't competitive. Wait to play Vaevi boi when people have threats on their board, which is likely around turn 6. This should give you time to get lands out, try to find some top deck manipulation like Sensei's Divining Top or Sylvan Library, and play your sac fodder. Your opponents will probably look at your board and shrug you off in favor of other people with threats. Until Vaevi boi comes a-swinging. People will probably target you. Or not. Depends on what you get rid of and what they get from the top. If you play your cards right, you'll probably end up getting a good ol' Grave Betrayal or a Dictate of Erebos to really mess with the board.

Alternate Ideas

Some ideas that I thought of during the first stages of deck building were:
- Shadowborn Apostles
- Steal My Opponents Graveyards
- Removal.deck
- Chaos
- Secret Sek'Kuar, Deathkeeper
- Secret Kresh the Bloodbraided
- Secret Shattergang Brothers
