Hi guys i'm building the new Marchesa, Dealer of Death and i would like some help choosing cuts and suggestions for reanimation targets. I'm avoiding Toxrill and Jin-Gitaxian, Core Augur mainly because i think they are a bit too much for my pod, i landed a Sheoldred this saturday and people were already having a hard time (as it's supposed to be from a deck like this), but i feel like the other 2 will be almost unbeatable and that's not the intent.

I'd like something that is impactful both early and late game and preferably a bit budget, i already own the expensive stuff in the main deck and even tho i'm proxying i do wanna get the cards later. Thanks to whoever is commenting i might not be able to check immediately, but will do asap.

There's some number of creatures that can self-discard for early interaction that can be reanimated later on for value that might be a good balance of power?

I'd also be curious if any of the crime enabling lands would be worthwhile? [[desert]] or [[flameking village]]?

[[pit of offerings]] or [[moonring island]] as well though the moonring one probably isn't worth the tapped etb?

I mean i'm avoiding Tox and Jin but it's not like we are playing with sticks and stones, i'm keeping Sheoldred and most of the other reanimator targets are legit threats

#

Some of the creatures that discard themselves are alright, but i don't see me spending a reanimation spell for them

#

They'd come back with Sheoldred or one of the mass reanimation spells and that's it

#

I do like the lands tho, Moonring doesn't feel worth it but the rest is cool

Fair enough! I do think [[Harvester of Misery]] could be more effective than Harvester Wurm, but the difference feels pretty negligible if you enjoy playing the Wurm

Yeah Harvester and the Carnosaur seem worth a test, maybe even the crab
