Author	Topic: Top 10 Reanimateable Fatties?
simbayu Member	posted April 10, 2012 11:42 AM Who do you guys think are the top 10 most powerful, game ending creatures that can be reanimated? Mana cost and color does not matter. [Edited 1 times, lastly by simbayu on April 10, 2012]

Some of those guys actually get hard-casted legitimately enough (Elesh Norn, Sundering Titan) instead of just being purely reanimated. If you're only considering things that a reanimator deck would play, it definitely affects the list. Emrakul is my first pick if I ever needed just one creature in play, but you would never really play him in a reanimator deck (same with Progenitus). There are definitely ways to reanimate Emrakul though.

Sovarius Member	posted April 10, 2012 08:55 PM Who said they could only be creatures that HAD to be reanimated? But Iona, Jin, Inkwell, and Terastodon are my favorites. A good reanimator targets needs to have an immediate game changing effect, or is really difficult to deal with. Like Inkwell. Emrakul and Progenitus would be nice if you didn't have to jump through hoops to get them to stick. Using either one of them for one turn isn't that great.
revenger Member	posted April 10, 2012 09:37 PM Akroma, Angel of Wrath doesn't make the top ten list? That wench, that bitch, that angel who has practically everything but the kitchen sink? I've lost to her a few times. Sphinx of the Steel Wind number 11? __________________ Motl member since November 1, 2000 Your 2008 and 2010 Motl Siskel & Ebert award winner! 38th in refs on Motl!

xxxcryoserumxxx Member	posted April 10, 2012 10:26 PM Can Emrakul even be reanimated? When he dies or touches the gravyard he gets shuffled into the library right away. [When Emrakul is put into a graveyard from anywhere, its owner shuffles his or her graveyard into his or her library.]

That's exactly the list I would propose. Sheoldred would probably be next.

Drexus Member	posted April 11, 2012 08:50 AM ^ only costs 15 life if you use reanimate

airwalk Member	posted April 11, 2012 02:20 PM Golgari Grave-Troll takes #1. Honorable mention to Sutured Ghoul. [Edited 1 times, lastly by airwalk on April 11, 2012]
Sovarius Member	posted April 11, 2012 02:37 PM Holy crap, those are both so bad. I don't get it. Troll needs plenty of creatures to do his thing. Any other dude is self sufficient. Why do you want a vanilla-ass trampler that ruins your deck? I think you're talking about a different reanimator

I think you're talking about a different reanimator I guess you have never heard of Dredge or Cephalid Breakfast? I'd wager Grave-Troll is the most oft reanimated creature in Magic history. Sutured Ghoul being a 45+/45+ hasted trampler is pretty good I hear. [Edited 1 times, lastly by airwalk on April 11, 2012]
Sovarius Member	posted April 11, 2012 03:19 PM Ok so yeah, sort of like i said, you're talking about a different reanimator. We seem to have only been discussing basically entomb+reanimate targets.

That's neat, but it's not what the OP asked. quote: Originally posted by simbayu: Who do you guys think are the top 10 most powerful, game ending creatures that can be reanimated? Mana cost and color does not matter. Sutured Ghoul is more of a game ender than anything listed so far aside from perhaps Jin-Gitaxias who effectivly wins the game if he survives a turn, but doesn't outright win the game then and there. I expect Griselbrand to enable a whole new type of Reanimator that probably wins as soon as he is reanimated.
