![]() ![]() This is the exact level of jank I enjoy in a deck. The next thing that stood out to me are how many cards enter play as a 0/0, but receive a pile of +1/+1 counters, so instead of digging through a bunch of Walls and other *-powered creatures, I changed my Scryfall search to make things a bit more manageable and was rewarded with finding a bunch of Arcbound and Clockwork creatures. Sadly, Nethroi checks what the * equals on resolution, meaning basically anything with * for its power won't work. Its power is, * and if that * equaled 0 while it was in the graveyard, it would be one of the best cards in this deck. Lord of Extinction is a great example of this. The first thing you may notice is that, along with cards that actually have 0 power, we also have cards with "*" for their power, with the * being equal to things like Elves in play, lands you control, or creatures in graveyards. Here is what my Scryfall search turned up. If you're looking for a way to improve your deckbuilding and to find cards off the beaten path, this is one of the best ways to do so.

Simply put, they are inefficient and there are more powerful (read: expensive) things you can be playing. Yes, you can certainly play cards like Rise from the Grave and Beacon of Unrest, but there is a reason these cards are as cheap as they are. On top of all of that, reanimator decks are not known for being budget-friendly. Nethroi may not be the most efficient and game-breaking option, but it's certainly one of the more interesting options to build around. Rise of the Dark Realms is $15 and nine mana. ![]() Living Death reanimates your entire graveyard, but does so at the cost of your current board while also allowing your opponents to do the same. ![]() ![]() Eerie Ultimatum has a much higher ceiling, but it's also much more difficult to cast. Checking out the Reanimator page shows us a number of mass reanimation spells that we can compare Nethroi with. Paying seven mana to reanimate 10 power worth of creatures is already a solid deal. ![]()
