Even if we only give five tokens with the Elf Shaman, it's still a fine deal for six mana, and in the late game, a single copy of Izoni, Thousand-Eyed is often enough to win the game all by itself. By the time it comes down, we often have five or even 10 creatures in our graveyard, which means we get a ton of tokens, making it the Golgari version of March of the Multitudes, with the upside of allowing us to sacrifice creatures to gain some life and draw some cards. Izoni, Thousand-Eyed is pretty insane in our deck. When it comes to closing out the game, we can sometimes win by simply out-valuing our opponent with our smaller creatures, but we have two primary finishers. The other upside to these cards is that they give us plenty of early-game defense against aggressive decks, with Seekers' Squire and Merfolk Branchwalker being mostly on-curve threats, especially if we manage to hit a non-land card with their explore trigger. Meanwhile, Merfolk Branchwalker and Seekers' Squire help to make sure we hit our land drops while also letting us explore creatures into our graveyard. Stitcher's Supplier comes down as early as Turn 1 to mill three cards and then mills three more when it dies, making it the fastest way to get cards into the graveyard in the format. Thankfully, we have a bunch of good, cheap options available in Standard. Step one for Golgari Reanimator is filling our graveyard with creatures as quickly as possible. Our early game is filled with creatures that are solid on their own but also help us stock our graveyard, our midgame is overloaded with strong removal (often attached to creatures), and then our late game is built around a couple of massive game-ending threats that we can either cast naturally or reanimate, with the help of The Eldest Reborn or Journey to Eternity. Golgari Reanimator is basically a Golgari midrange deck that looks to take advantage of filling the graveyard with creatures, both by reanimating massive finishers and for value, with cards like Golgari Findbroker.

Fâla, Budget Magic lovers, it's that time once again! This week, we're heading back to the super-fun Guilds of Ravnica Standard format to play one of my favorite styles of decks: a value-heavy, graveyard-centric Golgari Reanimator build! The basic idea of the deck is to use efficient creatures like Stitcher's Supplier and Merfolk Branchwalker to stock our graveyard with creatures and then The Eldest Reborn to reanimate huge finishers like Izoni, Thousand-Eyed or Lotleth Giant to win the game.
