Guys, we're Green and we'll need White for Rites. Thicket is the pick.

No, actually. Thicket lets us fix for one spell that will only be in our graveyard because we already had something in our graveyard we wanted to reanimate. So, to be good, rites has to be in the gy, we have to have a white source, and we have to have a viable target.

For the one-drop dude to be good we just have to play our deck.

The choice is simple. There's been other fixing going around anyway, there's no need yet to pass good cards to splash for one spell so we can cast it twice when it's only good with conditional parameters.

No, for the one drop to be good, we need to be beating down in what looks to be a slow deck, and have good sacrifice fodder for it, and outside of ophiomancer, it doesn't look like we do.

Akroma.

We play it face-down, we chump or trade, we reanimate. Maybe they even use a removal on it, since they can't be sure we can't morph it. What were we picking all those reanimate effects for if we now pass a prime target?

+1

I was thinking this when TPzombieW mentioned flicker effects to morph.

No again, bc we only need to be playing creatures for carrion to be good, and we have three things that generate creature tokens not to mention a creature with persist. Nearly half our cards interact with feeder.

So I wasn't thinking, because I also thought I'd posted this last night, but I'm gonna add the other picks that are left to the post.
