This started out originally as just a deep-sea themed reanimator deck with a minor Eldrazi sub-theme. But once BfZ and Spooky Moon came out, it got a lot more Eldrazi stuff and became so much better.

I know it seems kind of odd to have the original Eldrazi titans in a reanimator deck with very little instant-speed reanimation, but it fits in with the Cthuluian Mythos of having rituals of summoning the Deep Ones not always working out 100%. That's the same reason I'm running Lim-Dul's Vault over something like Demonic Tutor.
I do have the Pickles-lock of Brine Elemental and Vesuvan Shapeshifter as well as the Dark Depths+Thespian's Stage combo.

Let me know what you think and any if you have any suggestions. Thanks!
