Tinkering around with a Bringer of the Last Gift graveyard matters deck. Seems ok but kinda mid.

Basic flow is to fill the graveyard and hard ramp mainly with Blossoming Tortoise and Shigeki, Jukai Visionary, and look to cast a Gift to bring back a bunch of creatures with Surrak and Goreclaw to give them haste.

Early turns are hoping for Cruel Somnophage and Urborg Llurgoyf and Shigeki to both mill and gum up combat math long enough to get to the mid game.

I took out the spot removal cards and try to rely on Specter of Mortality as an emergency midgame sweeper to hold on for a few turns to get to a Gift. Instead of the defensive cards I'm trying to fit in the mini-combo of Invasion of Amonkhet   with the Ixalan transform-on-death Gods Aclazotz, Deepest Betrayal   and Ojer Kaslem, Deepest Growth   which the battle effectively makes undying. Likeness Looter can get in on this action too. In fact the looter gets lots of synergy with the creature set.

I'm also fitting in Jace, the Perfected Mind as an alt win condition. Triple ultimate threatens to kill the opponent's library, and Squirming Emergence enables reusing Jace a couple times to get there. Maybe this should be the primary win condition.

Lier, Disciple of the Drowned can reuse the Emergence or the Somnophage.

Sentinel of the Nameless City and Augur of Autumn and The Ancient One are trying to help bridge the mid game turns with some incremental digging and decent combat bodies.

Buried Treasure is mainly to get a turn 3 Tortoise but also to cut down the land count a bit to try to avoid floods.
