I run a red black reanimator and have found ingot chewers to be death to artifacts. Simply convoke it for a red, it comes into play, affect goes off allowing u to destroy an artifact and then it goes to graveyard. Best thing is ingots ability triggers everytime it enters battlefield. I splash red for faithless lootings too and terminates.

Chalice of the void is nice against tormods crypt, if u go first. I splash red with my legacy reanimator. I carry more legends so I cam almost guarantee one of em in my opening hand. Sideboard is creatures for specific decks. I use obliterators until I find out whatwhat opponent is running. Them ill sub out creatures if needed. If your worried bout life loss, plat emperiom is a great card. Prevemts u from losing life to reanimate. Check my reaniamtor if u like. Its been modified several times. Leyline is the biggest threat to my deck as well. I sideboard quicksilver amulet to help. Plus the four obliterators aren't hard to get out.
I'd add iona. Being able to seal off a color early is awesome. Need 4 entombs, its expensive but speeds up the deck quite a bit. In my renimator I splash red for faithless lootongs which is drawing amd discarding at the same time and u can flashback it too. Take alooo at my reanimator if u want some ideas.
Quicksilver amulet is worth a try, which I why ritual is nice, let's u speed up
Elesh is nice but draws far more attention, costs a lot more to own too...lol.
It that betrays is nice but I run into a lot of ray of command and unsummons. I use iona 2 seal off whichever color will annoy me the most and that lmost always seals the game. If not sheodred or an obliterator is more than enough backup.
Could always sideboard worldslayer. Its like a reset button it yu dmg your opponent. You are affected too but should be able 2 rebuild your forces quicker.
Balefire is just vastly cheaper, plus I can putb 2 of them on the field quickly. Planar void rarely shows itself. Leyline is your biggest weakness, that's why I run oblierators, getting 2 4 mana isn't that tough. The reason I run the chewers because everytime they come back from the graveyard the ability triggers, its like neverending artfact destruction with a sheodred out....lol.
I run obliterators just incase I have 2 hardcast somethin decent cuz of a bad draw. I also use putrid imps to put creatures in the graveyard mana free which leaves more mana for reanimating. I run multiples of ions, sheodreds, and blue praetors incase 1 gets exiled.
Check out my reanimator deck, its also legacy. In order to deal with disenchant I simply use chalice of the voids against graveyard killers like leyline, planar void, tormods crypt etc. I run red and black for mana accelration and card draws. I prefer the blue praetor over griselbrand simply because he destroys my opponents hand and the card draw is nice without paying life. In legacy dark ritual is a must in my opinion, in certain opening draws dark ritual can let u entomb and renimate on turn 1 assuming your opponet doesn't have a force of will. I peronally would drop duress for dark rituals. I sideboard ingot chewes for artifacts, balefire dragons for weenie decks and contaminations for control if needed.
Nice deck. I play a legacy hypergenesis myself. I like how your deck seems 2 flow togther.
Nvm, I'm thinking of seasinger, just remmbered your opponent has 2 have islands...god that's an old card
There is a 0/1 merfolk I believe that allows you to gain control of opponents creature as long as it remains tapped. I use to run a couple of them to pound my opponent with his own creatures incase he doesn't have islands. Can't remember what its called. You could always sideboard some if needed
I have no idea what 2 sideboard though...lol
Lol, nothing like dropping emarkul or a blightsteel on turn 1....lol. this deck is 1 I'm not allowed with at our local playgroup...lol. this decks main weakness is heavy counterspell decks. This is my favorite deck I own.
Funny thing is I rarely need to combo 2 get blighsteel out. That's the only reason I run black too is for those rituals and the 7/7 wurms. Most of the time I use the blue spells to get something out by turn 2 pretty regular. I have trouble with decks that have lots of board wiping if I get off 2 a slow start pumping creatures out.
Love the deck. Would love to see this deck in action.
Btw made a mistake ingot chewers don't have flashback...simple error on my part
Interesting deck, I think the creature selection could be better. I run a reanimator loaded with praetors and obliterators. I like to go red and black also especially for the terminates and faithless lootings.
Nice deck, my main competition deck is a legacy reanimator type deck. I splash red for terminates and faithles lootings. I also puts extras of my praetors and ionas in just incase I get 1 out and it gets exiled. All in all your deck looks nice though.
