Its most useful effect is its +1 ability, as it lets you cast spells for free, untapping artifacts and lands after using them
The second starts down two cards and three life but your lands tap for 2 mana so you'll get a 2-drop on turn one, a four-drop on turn two, and Kokusho the Broken Star on turn three
Reanimation is also a good plan for mill decks, and cards like Virtue of Persistence or The Soul Stone should find their way into mill decks, if only to disrupt reanimation targets or use powerful milled pieces for your own gain
Warrior Lady, and Self-Destruct Button can all force a draw, allowing the Last Turn player to reset and try again, should they believe the current game to be unwinnable
