Fantastic card when used with Dark Ritual on turn 1 to set up a second turn Exhume of a huge creature.

I don't think a 5/3 is worth the card disadvantage unless you're paying Madness costs.

@EpicBroccoli If you are playing this card right, you wont be getting card disatvantage. Optimally you will be discarding two Demigod of Revenge to Reanimate or Exhume the next turn... then hit for 15 FLYING turn two.. (as you can play this turn 1 with a dark ritual)

I like how you can tell right off the bat that the art is by rk post, who also did Avatar of Woe. The art looks a bit similar, in my opinion.

@Sleazebag: Remember that Demigod of Revenge's ability only triggers when you cast it from your hand. Exhumeing one won't reanimate the others.
That said, I don't see the problem with this card. It's an enormous flyer for the cost, and black has never really had any trouble with getting things back from the graveyard. (At least it's not a Phyrexian Negator)

5/3 for 3 mana with flying and reanimator potential? Yes, please.

I can see this card increasing in popularity again due to all the GY shenanigans taking place in the new sets due to flashback. Cards with flashback don't really cause card disadvantage when they're put in the GY.
Deck with 4 avatars of discord, 4 Demigod's of revenge and lots of flashback cards and reanimate cards = powerful casual deck imo.

I'm still having a lot of troubles getting this card to work. I'm thinking a Wheel of Fate style deck where card disadvantage matters a lot less. With today's removal see seems to risky unless you can make up for that disadvantage.

Sure, I will gladly discard a Reassembling Skeleton and Bloodghast!

Not that great, unfortunately. Has a nasty habit of showing up in your hand when playing it would be very unwise. Eating a Mind Rot in exchange for a fragile flier is a no go unless you're specifically building around discarding stuff, and, even then, there are probably less awkward and risky ways to discard. 3/5.

apparently a lot of people dont understand how to take advantage of this card. putting cards in the GY is what many black decks want to do!!! I play this in my R/B deck with 4 Torrent of Souls and 4 Cauldron Dance. Works like a charm every time.
solid card for reanimator decks.
4/5

If you have no cards in your hand, Avatar of Discord costs 6 less to play.
