I'll be making one change to the Reanimator list. It needs to have Squee, Goblin Nabob in it. When you have a bunch of filters and no reanimation in hand, Squee is the card you want to have in our graveyard. The Card advatage is enormous, and he is often worth entombing over other options. So I'll have to be removing one of th cards from the list... suggestions?

UW: Expedition Map seems fine to me, it just depends if you want the acceleration or the tutoring. The deck has some pretty good targets (Vesuva to kill a legendary land, man land, Mouth of Ronom, Karakas). I'm not a big fan of Azorius Signet in the same deck as EE, so you could use the map instead of the signet. I'll make this change in the list. Reanimator: Squee sounds great - that was an oversight by us. How about putting Funeral Charm in the sideboard and removing Persecute from the board? I just threw Persecute in off the top of my head when I realized we were a card short anyway, and I don't think it's good against the fast mono-colored decks. I'm making that update for now, but let me know if somebody has a better idea.

Quickie observations- RG, BGW or Elves possibly wants Master of the Wild Hunt. Goblins might want Stingscourger in the side (as a tutorable answer to reanimated fatties/way through blockers). Elves probably wants the protection from Vines of the Vastwood more than RG aggro (key permanents vs generic permanents). Does "rock" want Necrotic Sliver as another Utility option? With Enlightened Tutor, Tezzeret, Muddle and Fabricate already in the UW list i would consider slotting in the Sword of the Meek& Thopter Foundry "combo" as another way to just win vs aggro. Karakas does nothing in the UW deck (except occasionally bounce opposing legends, unless the cards below the sideboard are magically in the list also.) suggesting move it to the rock list to protect your own legends. Phrexian Ironfoots a good blocker if one of the control decks needs some more early defense/random win con.

Here's a batch of changes that I made based on Kharlis' feedback and from talking to CC team members. Goblins: Added Stingscourger to the sideboard instead of Lash Out. Elves: Added Vines of Vastwood to the sideboard instead of Gleeful Sabotage. RG Aggro: Added Rancor, removed Frostling, added Vinelasher Kudzu (synergy with fetches + Scapeshift) and put Hearth Kami into the board to replace Vines of Vastwood. UW Control: Move Karakas to Rock for a Snow-Covered Plains GWB Rock: Added Karakas, removed plains, removed Sword of Light and Shadow (into WW), added Necrotic Sliver WW: Added Sword of Light and Shadow, removed Cenn's Tactician, added Test of Faith to the sideboard instead of Preacher (and thanks to Orgion for pointing out that Preacher is weak)

I just did a duplicate check, and there are some cards that were used twice: Damnation - in Rock and Reanimator - I put All Hallows Eve into Reanimator instead. ChrisKool says he likes it in his new reanimator deck. Fulminator Mage - in Reanimator and Goblins - replaced with Hearthfire Hobgoblin in Goblins. Ideas Unbound - Reanimator and UG Storm - replaced with Careful Study in Reanimator Primal Command - Elves SB and Rock Main - took out of Elves and put Gleeful Sabotage back in SB. Jace Beleren - in the UW sideboard twice (whoops) - replaced one with Muddle the Mixture.

I agree with most of those changes except the removal of Sword of Light and Shadow from Rock. I think Rock makes much better use of the card with its ability to get more lands out and its semi recursion theme. It was one of the few cards left that let it recur creatures since Buried, Living Death, Necromancy and such were all stolen by the reanimator deck. Necrotic Sliver has only been so-so for me in the games I have played with it. Someone mentioned Sulfuric Vortex going in Gobs instead of RG and I would agree with that too. Probably maindeck worthy in Goblins, if there is something in the Gobs list that RG wants.
