Some of my thoughts:
-
Griselbrand is a much better all purpose target than Iona. I recommend maxing Griselbrand count first before maxing Iona.
-
Collective Brutality is a swiss army knife for Reanimator. Its an uncounterable discard outlet, pre-emptively answers opposing countermagic and removal, kills problematic small creatures, finishes off weakened opponent, and at the very least gives back some life lost from Reanimate and Griselbrand activations.
-
Buried Alive is slow for Reanimator. If you really want this, maybe just run 1, but not the full 4.
-
Why is The Stone Brain in the deck? If you're worried of opposing card, I think you're far better off with discard like Unmask and Thoughtseize. They also doubles as a discard outlet if you really need to.
-
Also why casual? The deck is 1 card away from being legacy legal. Just replace Sol Ring with maybe Lotus Petal and you have a legitimate constructed deck.

since you're using entomb and buried alive to tutor your big creatures, I would run just 1 iona not 4. same with any big creatures, you never really want her in hand, and having 1 of each bomb makes entomb really good because you can find the best creature for your situation. also note that the legacy version of this deck plays Troll of Khazad-dum and Grief, both very strong targets for reanimate.

How much money are you willing to spend on this deck? Atraxa, Grand Unifier and Archon of Cruelty are popular reanimator targets right now, and I see Griselbrand already in the decklist.
