Skullbriar, the Walking Grave has been one of my favorite cards since I started playing Magic about 8 years ago. I loved the concept of reanimator decks and I loved Corpsejack Menace since my first ever deck had 4 of them, 4 Lotleth Trolls, and counter shenanigans. Originally this list also used things like That Which Was Taken to give other counters that stayed and I loved it. Then Ikoria came out and changed the game for Skullbriar forever.

Being able to give him ability counters blew my friggin' mind and not to mention the synergy that The Ozolith provides. Ikoria sparked inspiration for me to rebuild this deck to revive the ancient menace since I had moved on to other decks since then. All that said, I am still mediocre at building edh decks and would love some feedback and would love to see what you guys may run in your lists. Thanks guys and hope you enjoy!
