Grixis reanimate-control (5-0 @ FNM)

Standard Combo Competitive Control FNM Reanimator UBR (Grixis)

------


Sideboard


This is a Grixis reanimate-control deck using expoit and reanimate effects that make Nicol Bolas look like a Dragon Hatchling!

Reanimate-combo: Swift Warkite + Sidisi's Faithful + Silumgar Sorcerer (you can replace the sorc with any other card in this combo)->counter, sac the sorc, cast the warkite, return the sorc to battle 2/1 flyer with haste, then it get's bounced back to your hand. Keep 3 mana open, counter, sac the sorc again. In your turn, cast the faithful, sac it, bounce the warkite and recast it, return the sorc to the field, attack, bouce it back to your hand. Combine this with other cards to reach maximum efficency. Alesha, Who Smiles at Death will do a great job for reanimating the faithful so you can bounce the warkite every time. You can also sac the warkite and get it back with Fearsome Awakening and put 2 counters on it. Also, never forget to attack! Same combo goes for Stratus Dancer. Who needs non-creature counterspells anyways?

Sac some Palace Familiar s with Vulturous Aven to get a draw 3, trigger Ruthless Deathfang, reanimate both with the warkite and Alesha, draw 3 again.

You'll need to attack alot with this deck. You are control, but you also play a creature-based deck. The best thing you can do is attack, sac with Collateral Damage, get some value from combo triggers out of that, shoot 3 in the face, reanimate with the warkite and attack again. You can repeat that if you have enough combo cards in your hand.

This deck requires a good understanding of mana-management. You'll get to draw lot's of cards, that means you should be able to get all the landdrops you need to combo out and play the deck to it's full extend.

Need to get the dragons out? Sarkhan's Triumph will help you finding the warkite and deathfang.

The sideboard features Minister of Pain against tokens, Grim Haruspex and Outpost Siege as exploit-combos and card-draw accelerations. Sidisi, Undead Vizier does the free tutor thing. Play 1 Sidisi, tutor. Sac it with a second Sidisi (Legendary rule and Sac trigger at the same time, so you can choose what comes first, sac the old Sidisi and the Legendary trigger does not longer apply) and get another tutor. Or you can bounce Sidisi with her faithfull, sacing the faithfull, getting a tutor, reanimate the faithful, bounce Sidisi and recast her, sacing the faithful again. At last, 4 copies of Silumgar's Scorn will do the job if you need more unspecific counters. Sarkhan's Triumph will get you a dragon, so it just counters everything for 2 blue mana.

I hope you like the deck and I'm looking towards your opinions and suggestions. ;)

2:0 vs. Abzan Aggro (Abzan decks just suck gay ass I think. Cats can't block flyiers, rhinos got countered, attacked with sors and dragons, easy win) 2:0 vs. Abzan Control (trying to control my board, doesn't work against reanimate control, I gave Abzan Control a pretty hard beatdown with the dragons) 1:0 vs G/B Constellation (first game went into timeout, won in the extra turns as he went deck-dead, propably to much nxy weaver mills and eidolon of blossom triggers. This was intense, as both decks use ressurection and control) 1:0 vs. Esper Control (long game full of countering counters and dragons clashing, I won the first round, second round went into timeout) 2:1 vs. Temur ramp (lost the first game as I didn't draw sorcs to counter genesis hydra, the next 2 games were better)
