Man, I bet most people won't get the title reference anymore... damn, I'm old.

Sooo - anyways, what do we have here?

Basically the main idea is to fill everybody's graveyard with reanimation targets by playing numerous Wheel of Fortune effects while simultaneously punishing you opponents via Megrim, Liliana's Caress, Waste Not, Raiders' Wake or Underworld Dreams.

As a result, every now and then you should be able to reanimate a useful minion from beyond - the Primordials and/or Malfegor usually shine here, depending on what you need. Emergency Button comes within everybody's favorite "Oops, I win!"-combo around Worldgorger Dragon.

I came unprepared - how does that combo work?

Glad you asked. It's rather simple though. With Worldgorger Dragon in the grave, you want to cast either Animate Dead, Dance of the Dead or Necromancy on him. When he enters the battlefield, you create a loop: At first the aura of choice is removed because of the dragon's triggered ability. The aura then triggers itself, sacrificing the dragon, which returns all permanents he originally removed to the battlefield again, among them your reanimation-aura and the loop starts all over.

So far so entertaining - of course Worldgorger returns all permanents as new objects to the battlefield and thus untapped. This results in infinite mana and a kill option with stuff like Piranha Marsh or Nephalia Drownyard on the board. Alternatively, you could also load up on black mana and blow everything to pieces with Thrashing Wumpus, mill people to death with Oona, Queen of the Fae, loot their libraries with Geth, Lord of the Vault and so on. Just don't be a jerk and use that stuff every game, you'll lose your playgroup sooner or later.

A third centerpiece of the deck is the innocent looking Sundial of the Infinite, which - in fact - is enabling a few pretty neat interactions. With all the "remove at the end of turn" effects in the deck, Sedris + an unanswered Sundial is most likely to gain you some serious value over a few turns.

Suggestions and/or comments would be awesome.
