Will Ashen Rider be replacing Angel of Despair in Legacy Reanimator decks? Will the one extra mana hurt that much more when Reanimate targets it from the graveyard? What are your thoughts on this? Thanks for reading, LK
Recurring Nightmare is played in some "Nic Fit" builds for Legacy.

Considering the deck already plays Griselbrand , I think the extra life is worth the trigger on death. It's also a much stronger target for Animate Dead , because you lose no value if Animate Dead falls off. You can also Animate Dead Ashen Rider , target Animate Dead , then sacrifice Ashen Rider , kill something of your opponent's, then cast Reanimate or Animate Dead . That way, you get more options with a single Entomb .
Ashen Rider is definitely the go-to for sideboard against Show and Tell .

I wonder if it'll make Recurring Nightmare a thing again.
