I was wondering why you don't play pact of negation, but using search function revealed that's because of MLD of your meta. Maybe worth adding this to the OP's "what I don't play" section?
I'll post a picture as soon as I get one
Also, I didn't know Kozilek was out yet, how has he been?
It isn't, I just proxied it to give it a try since it probably won't make the cut there's no point to wait and buy one. I saw it once, it wasn't great but I'll test it further.
Any more experiences yet with new Kozilek? I preordered one and about to test it later.
I also play Praetor's Grasp in my deck, originally because I had theme of tutoring other people's decks, rather than my own. It's good card I had somehow forgotten. Usually I end up tutoring answers and tbh first I didn't even think that it works as a combo piece also
With sac outlet like Auratog that new starfield would be pretty good I think. Reclamation Sage would probably be worthful consideration, but sadly it doesn't hit lands.
I played with a Sangromancer for a while, but it was too conditional and usually didn't do anything. For some extra lifegain I personally use Wurmcoil Engine which has been pretty good value and I see MrCoupon uses it aswell.
Hmm I wonder why I have never tested Helm of Possession! For me Gary and Kokusho are still probably the number one win conditions. They might not kill everyone but they make most of the work. One card which has been surprisingly good for me is Lashwrithe. It's late game champion which I've thought removing several times, but I've win so many games with it I just can't. I know it looks lackluster and can't be reanimated but still it works for me
@MrCoupon & @GloriousGoose what's your take on Nirkana Revenant? I've been hesitant of buying it, since it's somewhat pricey and you most likely need to wait a turn to really abuse her.
Just while ago our playgroup made a custom generals for our core members. The generals somewhat represent the players playstyle and they turned out quite fun and not that broken you could thought. Here's (even though most of the text is unreadable) the laminated cards.
My general:
Petrus, WUB
Legendary Creature - Human Cleric
U, return a permanent you control to its owner’s hand, T: Draw a card, then discard a card.
B, sacrifice a creature, T: Gain 1 life.
W, T: Tap target creature
1/4
The first version I built is maybe little bit too boring and basic esper reanimator, so I might need to tweak it more to get more mileage of that general. Or wait... maybe I am just boring and basic reanimator...
I should get my Hua Tuo this week and then he's gonna be my next monocolor project. I'm gonna use this thread as a baseline and start building. Keep up the good work!
Well, grindy attrition tactic worked for a while... Now it's time for Palinchron and DEN. Has anyone tested Mana Reflection? I don't have Urborg in my deck, so I'm not currently using Crypt Ghast and Vorinclex draws hate like nothing else.

It's not really hard to buy the new cards from internet.
