She's sweet for EDH, but I think Akroma is better overall.Sadly she's not good for re-animator because she doesn't do much when you only have 2 lands and her out. __________________

Not much except beat people in the face for 8 every turn while staying home to block whatever threats are present. 5WWW is a lot but making all your permanents indestructible while getting a flying 8/8 beater is not too shabby. Swords/Path/Ashes to Ashes just got one more reason to be played over any other removal in EDH.

Ya which isn't good enough. I'd rather make you have 0 hand size, or not be able to play spells of a certain color. __________________

She'll become a mono-white EDH staple and a limited house but we have so many better targets in reanimator: Sphinx of the steel wind, Inkwell Leviathan, the 0-hand-size thing i don't know the name of cause i tunnel-vision legacy and mostly ignore new sets, iona... it's not good enough.

In legacy reanimator, this is barely better than goliath sphinx.

I think it'll find a home in my captain sisay deck. Lots of ways to tutor for it, cast it quicker or cheat it into play, and between her and privileged position, asceticism, lightning greaves, and swiftfoot boots my stuff should be well protected

Yeah, mostly because of the prevalence of Swords to Plowshares and Path to Exile. She's decent and pretty cool, but just not optimal in this day and age.

I'm not sure what's being referred to either, but a hasty Nicol Bolas will do that for you.

for me avacyn,angel OF hope is better reinforcement for eleshnorn,grand cenobite in pod deck now a days..sacrifce eleshnorn for birthing pod and then search avacyn and put it in battlefield then here come trouble.ohh nohh big big problem
for edh this is better for animanitor...like zombify,necromacer and other reanimanitor spells..
