Aight, im not a great t2-playah, but i like to play sometimes..and im not a fan of tier1-decks..everyone plays em so its boring..i make my own (expletive deleted)..this time i have tried a reanimate-deck, i want suggestion to change so on.

here it is..

4 Zombify
3 Vigor Mortis
4 Compulsive Research
3 Ideas Unbound
4 Thought Courier
3 Dimir Doppelganger
3 Blazing Archon
3 Firemane Angel
3 Nullstone Gargoyle
4 Sleight of Hand
1 Verdant Force
1 Angel of Despair
1 Kira, Great Glass-Spinner
4 Watery Grave
4 Underground River
2 Miren, the Moaning Well
7 Island

SB: 4 Defense Grid
SB: 2 Firemane Angel
SB: 1 Kuro, Pitlord

3 Nullstone Gargoyles and 1 Angel of Despair?!? What the crap is wrong with you? LD would DESTROY you. So would MUC. In fact, so would pretty much anything. This deck sucks. No offense. I'd consider myself quite the rogue decker, and I wouldn't touch this deck if someone paid me.
Reanimator decks can work, but it's extremely difficult these days. You have 7 reanimator spells (why wouldn't you run 8?) and no way to play half of those creatures if you don't get a Vigor Mortis/Zombify. Plus, no dragons!
The only positive here is that you have Kira, Great Glass-Spinner. She's so highly underrated. Of course, you have Dimir Doppleganger as well, but, seriously, this deck would lose to a lot.

I have to agree with illuminari, your deck isnt that great. You dont have enough reanimate spells or ways to get creatures into the graveyard. I have a reanimate that works quite well, i could post it if you want me to.
4 Underground River
4 Polluted Delta
6 Swamp
2 Island
4 Chrome Mox

Reanimation Targets
4 Akroma, Angel of Wrath
3 Rorix Bladewing

Discard Outlets
4 Putrid Imp
4 Careful Study
1 Sickening Dreams
4 Cabal Therapy Reanimation
4 Reanimate
4 Exhume
1 Show And Tell

Other
4 Vampiric Tutor
3 Duress
4 Brainstorm

this outlines what you need to make this deck actually work. Hope this helps.

My idea of a T2 Reanimator is along the lines of:

Creatures:
x1 Blazing Archon
x2 Angel of Despair
x1 Kokusho, the Evening Star
x1 Keiga, the Tide Star
x4 Firemane Angel
x2 Dimir House Guard
x2 Hell's Caretaker

Other:
x1 Debtors' Knell
x4 Zombify
x3 Vigor Mortis
x4 Gifts Ungiven
x4 Compulsive Research
x2 Cry of Contrition
x4 Sleight of Hand
x4 Dimir Signet

Land:
x4 Watery Grave
x4 Underground River
x4 Dimir Aqueduct
x1 Minamo, School At Water's Edge
x1 Shizo, Death's Storehouse
x2 Island
x6 Swamp

I don't know what you could have as a sideboard. Maybe something like:

x4 Cranial Extraction
x4 Last Gasp
x4 Defense Grid
x3 Nightmare Void

The primary way to get creatures in your graveyard in this deck would be Gifts Ungiven, but you also have Compulsive Research and Cry of Contrition.

The main strategy here is to take advantage of the comes-into-play and leaves-play effects that the creatures have via Hell's Caretaker.

Firemane Angel is to ensure you don't get burned out before you get going, try to avoid reanimating it unless completely necessary.

Dimir House Guard works sort of as a tutor for many things in this deck, Gifts Ungiven, Zombify, and even Hell's Caretaker can be retrieved by the House Guard.

Anyway, hope this has been of some help.
