Who remembers Remembrance?

Enchantment
Whenever a nontoken creature you control is put into a graveyard, you may search your library for a copy of that creature card. If you do, reveal the card, put it into your hand, and shuffle your library afterward.

This card had serious potential for combo decks, but was more ignored than Greater Good (sorry Zadok, I had just gone to the Dojo to see if I could flame anyone and I saw your article in the Humor section. I would have responded to it with another article, but it wouldn't have been posted (stupid editor)). Here is one idea for a deck to use it (admittedly not that good):

Forest 10 -
Plains 4 -
Savannah 4 -
City of Brass 4 -
Gaea’s Cradle 2 -
Serra’s Sanctum 1 -
Spore Frog 4 G
Birds of Paradise 4 G
Blastoderm 4 2GG
Deranged Hermit 3 3GG
Serra Avatar 2 4WWW
Enlightened Tutor 4 W
Remembrance 4 3W
Enduring Renewal 4 2WW
Worldly Tutor 4 G
Survival of the Fittest 4 1G


SIDEBOARD: 15

Fountain Watch 4 3WW
Mageta the Lion 2 3WW
Compost 2 1G
Absolute Grace 4 1W
Mana Leak 3 1U

Any other ideas?

4 Academy Rector
4 Veteran Explorer
4 Verduran Enchantress
4 Argothian Enchantress
3 Yavimaya Enchantress
3 Rememberance
2 Confiscate
4 Rancor
1 Zephid's Embrace

4 Exploration
1 Trade Routes
2 Seal of Cleansing
2 High Market
1 Serra's Sanctum
1 Thran Quarry/City of Brass/Undiscovered Paradise
8 Forest
5 Plains
5 Island

Just a start, but Rector/Rememberance is pretty cool

Another strange idea I just had:

4 Rememberance
3 Phyrexian Negator
4 Lich
4 Ornithopter
4 Shield Sphere
4 Phyrexian Walker
2 Cathodion
4 Dark Ritual
1 Mirror Universe
4 Enduring Renewal
3 Academy Rector
4 Scrubland
8 Swamp
8 Plains
4 City of Brass

And a suggestion: Use Rememberance with Sneak Attack... heh heh heh

Blastoderm/remeberarnce is a cool combo. Use it! Even in the second deck.

Oh, and maybe regrowth or Revive?

 

[Thallid Ice Cream Man]

Yeah, so is Survival + Rememberance.

4 Birds of Paradise
4 Rememberance
4 Survival of the Fittest
4 Æther Rift
4 Stormbind
4 Meteor Storm
4 Squee, Goblin Nabob
4 Blastoderm
4 Skizzik
3 Sneak Attack
4 City of Brass
3 Shivan Oasis
6 Forest
6 Mountain

Okay, this is a REALLY good deck. Survival/rememberance allows you to draw out all cards of a type you need, say "Squee" and stormbind simply abuses that. I like this deck.

Remembrance:

Text(US+errata): Whenever a nontoken creature you control is put into a graveyard from play, you may search your library for a creature card with the same name as that card. If you do, reveal the card and put it into your hand. Then shuffle your library. [Oracle 99/05/01]

Explain to me how that combos with Survival?

 

[Duel]

From PLAY! Damn. So much for sur/rem.

 

[Dead]

This was always great with rebels and lin-sivvi, the best being defiant vanguard: block with it, kill the creature, put the remembrance ability on the stack when the vanguard kills itself, respond with the lin-sivvi shuffle back so you can get the same one back: allowed for single cards to be reused, mana permitting.
Shouldn't be too hard to abuse with conspiracy for more useful 187 critters or faders: deranged hermit would be good especially as you could use the elf-fetching rebel 4 times first then start feeding them all back...

 

[Thallid Ice Cream Man]

I didn't have the version that had errata on it. Sorry.
But it still works with Enduring Renewal and Sneak Attack and Recurring Nightmare and High Market and Ashnod's Altar and Lich and Phyrexian Negator and .....

4 Rememberance
4 Enduring Renewal
4 Ornithopter
4 Sheild Sphere
4 Phyrexian Walker
4 Cathodion
4 Su-Chi
4 Fireball
4 Goblin Bombardment
4 Ashnod's Altar
12 Plains
4 City of Brass
4 Mountain

Pretty consistent version of Fruity Pebbles. (or maybe not, don't flame me)

 

[Duel]

Search cards are good.... use them.

 

[Thallid Ice Cream Man]

Enlightened Tutor searches for every non-land card in the deck except itself and Fireball. I'd better put it in.

-4 Su-Chi
+4 Enlightened Tutor

And of course this is at least extended, so:

-4 City of Brass
+4 Plateau

I need some ideas for RemSneak (sounds cool, worth a try)

 

[Duel]

Rectors galore.
