Two cards that are definite includes for me today, I haven't been this excited about additions in a while :). His recursion seems pretty easy in decks that would want him too.
Notably, while this guy enters tapped, it makes sense with the recursion ability. Also notably, since it ETBT, it can block in a pinch, and after recurring it, since it's a Zombie, you can also bring back Gravecrawler!
Oh look a 2/1 for 1 mana that doesn't require a board presence for buyback but still has a cheap recursion cost. I heard those were nearly impossible yesterday from someone.
This guy looks great! Black aggro is becoming premier aggro.
Slamming this over one of the non Zombie 2/1s. Awesome card. This set is filling a lot of small holes for me.

I can't say I'm pleased to see you and must warn you I may have to do something about it.

Pretty great in pox decks. Very happy to get more recursive dudes in black.
Pox is one of my favorite decks in the cube, and it's getting easier and easier to support with stuff you'd be including anyway. Awesome.

Since my potential cuts are Carnophage, Diregraf Ghoul, Gnarled Scarhide, I think Carnophage is the correct choice--but I could be wrong. Carnophage vs Diregraf Ghoul is a relatively easy choice to me. However, Gnarled Scarhide is an x/1 and not a zombie, but it has bestow , which is nice, and the rarely-relevant fact that it is also an enchantment. However, I have seen it bestowed exactly 0 times, so maybe that is the correct choice for my group.
Is the 1 toughness of Dread Wanderer relevant for a creature with recursion? I don't know, but I'd rather the other synergies this allows me than that occasionally-relevant extra point of toughness.
Then again, maybe you're right and its as simple as "No"
Definitely makes the cut for me, just have to find a one-drop to cut.

Thanks for the well-thought out reply. Instead of being condescending, you could explain your thoughts...is that too much to ask?
