@Eretoryi, I always used Flayer. To me, he's the only clear choice among the ones to be the single maindeck DR target.
And Force is something I wanted to experiment with a long time, so I borrowed them, and let me tell you: They should be the norm in every Dredge sideboard. We have enough blue cards to make them work (with Amalgam existing now), they give us edge against all combo decks (including the mirror, because of Dread Return), they are good against Rest in Peace, etc.

- The Duress are a budget solution to no Thoughtseize. I know this is not the budget forum, but this is the list I'm currently running, that's why I posted it.
- Yep, Lilianas are an issue, will try to trade for them in the near future.4
- Ashen Riders = Show and Tell.dec, and if you get to untap with him, he's great Cabal Therapy food.

Both games I won easily, his deck was mostly persist and undying guys plus Hybridization effects.
2x0, 1x0
Round 2: vs Jundvine
Great friend of mine, his deck is a Jund Vengevine deck, with Vines, Bloodghasts, Gravecrawlers, Blasting Station, etc.
Game 01 I was down to 1 life before I stabilized, my LD package kept him from playing 2 creatures on the same turn and bring back te 2 Vengevines he was beating me with before I Violent Outburst'ed him.
Game 02 was more of the same, he combos on turn 2 with 2 Vengevines, I cascade, LD him and win.
2x0, 2x0
Round 3: vs American Control
Another great friend of mine, we decided to split, but to play for honor and training.
Game 1 I cast a Simian Spirit Guide, make the game go long, and with the right timing, I Violent Outburst, and LD him (2 Fulminators + 1 Avalanche in the GY).
Game 1 I cycle, cycle, cycle, cast Simian, cast Fulminator (countered). I try Demonic Dread on my Dryad Arbor, Living End, he Snapcaster for Counterflux, I Ricochet Trap. He scoops.
Split (2x0), 2x0x1 (3x0)

It happens. It happened last night, and I nearly cried out at my monitor when he conceded, but what can I do? Congratulations to Joe, top 8'ng with our deck, and with the Guides in the deck, just like I used to run, I was glad to see them in the list.

The absence of Faerie Macabre is really bugging me. This configuration, the more "all in combo" one is not optimal, you can't outrace certain decks, and there are times that just resolving Living End is not enough. You got to have a more tool box approach, IMHO.

My play group is very Legacy-centric, and my Legacy deck is incomplete. So when they made an impromptu tournament, I played with my Living End deck, that was already sleeved up.
My Reanimator match, the last one, was:
I drop a Leyline of the Void turn 0, he spends several turns trying to find the Chain of Vapor or Echoing Truth, I start the Faerie Macabre beatdown (yes, I casted it). He Chain of Vapor my Leyline, I Richochet Trap, changing the target to my Faerie, with another on in hand. I proceed to beat down until I Living End for one million.
