Deck discussion for reanimate standard (advice needed)

I think you should look into a deck type called "Solar Flare". There's a standard legal version that's pretty much what you're looking to do here, just with the addition of blue for counters and Forbidden Alchemy. You should also think of using Day of Judgment. I run a 4 colour (WUBG) 'Reanimator' in standard and find that Merfolk Looter works a lot better than Zombie Infestation. I assume Lilli is in here for her discard affect. With that being a +1 ability, she should stick around for a while, so take it down to 2x (3x at most). Elesh Norn and Sheoldred are legendary, so in my version I only run 1 of each in case it's Sheoldred doing the revival. I don't want to lose either just because the only creature in my grave is a legend I already have in play. Titans and Wurmcoil Engine are nice BIG standard legal creatures to reanimate, I don't have Wurmcoils, so I run Massacre Wurms instead. Now the reason I run green is to use Viridian Emissary as a blocker to ramp mana and Mulch to help fill my grave with creatures to reanimate.

Another thing you can do with blue is use Phantasmal Image. If you decide to run Sun Titan, you can bring back the Image as a copy of Sun Titan, which will allow you to do it again. This is very common in a lot of Solar Flare decks.
