I've built a Sidisi, Brood Tyrant deck designed for 1v1 play, and I wanted to try to find a way to squeeze in Vengevine. Since Sidisi both puts cards from your library into your graveyard (and rewards you for otherwise doing so), I figured it would be good to add creatures that you can recur from the grave. The problem is that most of the "return ~ from the your graveyard onto the battlefield," and don't actually "cast" the creature. As a result, it can be harder to trigger Vengevine's ability, since you don't always have 2 castable creatures in hand. The only examples I can think of that can actually be "cast" from the graveyard are Gravecrawler and Haakon, Stromgald Scourge.
Does anyone know of any other creatures in Sultai colors that can actually be "cast" from the grave? Thanks in advance!

Playing with proxied cards at sanctioned events is good, actually.
You don't necessarily have to cast from the graveyard if you can bring it back to hand. I know there are more but Eternal Witness and Gravedigger both come to mind.
Along with the recur to hand cards that Krimsonmask suggested, try to double utilize them by using sac outlets, in case you only get one "cast from graveyard" creature.
River Kelpie looks like it could do good work in this deck, even if it doesn't meet the condition of "casting creatures" itself, any creatures that you actually manage to cast from the yard will net you a card from each of it's triggers.
For the budget players among us, there's good old Gravecrawler. (Come on, you knew there would be an Innistrad card on this list.)

Card advantage is not the same thing as card draw. Something for 2B cannot be strictly worse than something for BBB or 3BB. If you're taking out Swords to Plowshares for Plummet, you're a fool. Stop doing these things!

Blue lives don't matter in the slightest.
Havengul Lich will let you cast any creature from any graveyard, so long as you can pay for it.
EDH Decks:
G Jugan
U Budget Jalira Battlecruiser
Prized Amalgam could be an alternative to Vengevine.
Risen Executioner can turn really expensive, Scourge of Nel Toth could work.
