Read the Bones: I am not happy with this card. I feel it hurts me in the current meta (Especially against U/W Enchant). I am actually going to start testing Rescue from the Underworld. If you are playtesting this deck, I would like to hear input about that switch.
Medomai the Ageless: Did everyone forget about this card? Did everyone just think it's a dead card because it's U/W. What a bomb this card is. As soon as this card drops the field, nothing but compliments and gg's come afterwards. If it's in your hand. Erebos Emissary puts it in the Grave and Whip scoops it into play.
Nemesis of Mortals: This card sucks....Horribly. I can understand why people think it's good but with the amount of removal that's out there. I don't place this card anywhere near the power level as the high end creatures in my deck. That is just my opinion, don't get butt hurt if you don't agree :P.
I like the addition of the Medomai the Ageless to the deck. I have been using Rescue from the Underworld and it sets up some insane plays. But I feel like the deck lacks some thing (Reanimator in general in this block), some sort of removal. Weenie decks are gonna be running wild for a bit (Heroic decks) and we need some time to set up and go. As for Nemesis I completely agree with you.
I agree. At first I had Hero's Downfall instead of Sylvan Caryatid, but I realized how much more efficient you are with Sylvan. If anything. We can put removal on sideboard, especially Drown in Sorrow. This deck does extremely well with the Dega Control deck.
You're very committed to the reanimator package vs the traditional GWB "good stuff including reanimator" decks that are placing right now.

Out of the blackness and stench of the engulfing swamp emerged a shimmering figure. Only the splattered armor and ichor-stained sword hinted at the unfathomable evil the knight had just laid waste.
Hello.
I'm also using the Reanimator Deck with Medomai.
I think 1 Medomai is enough for the Reanimator Deck.
He is very powerful for some specific case, but lacks versatility.
However, if there is no danger of removal spells or blocking creatures, you can use one additional turn to various purposes.
So he is worth adopting, but it seems difficult to use him as a core of the deck.
I have some opinion to other things. Read the Bones: I also think this card is not good. As with many other Reanimator Decks, Courser of Kruphix is the best choice for the draw engine. He stands up with Bile Blight or Lightning Strike since he has toughness 4. But I'm not using this creature, because this card is so expensive, lol. I'm trying to use Reaper of the Wilds instead of this Centaur, but he is not good enough.
Nemesis of Mortals: I agree with you, because this creature doesn't work well with Whip of Erebos. By the same reason, Nighthowler is also not good.
I'm intending to use the triggered ability of Reaper instead of Kruphix, and sometimes to use beat-down strategy.
His ability triggers much more times than it looks, but I don't think he works enough for both purposes.
I'm trying to avoid Kruphix, but I'll buy this card if it is the must for this deck.
I'll try Voyaging Satyr. Thank you for response.

He has two weak points.
One is that he doesn't have any CIP, so he is weaker for Gild or Hero's Downfall than Ashen Rider and Abhorrent Overlord.
The other one is that he would be blocked by Prognostic Sphinx since his power is 4.
However, if there is no danger of removal spells or blocking creatures, you can use one additional turn to various purposes.
So he is worth adopting, but it seems difficult to use him as a core of the deck.
