Reanimation

Spells and effects that put creature cards from a graveyard onto the battlefield, the classic cheat-into-play axis. Covers cheap one-shots like Reanimate, enchantment anchors like Animate Dead, sacrifice-powered revivals like Victimize, mass returns like Living Death, and ETB-triggered revivers like Karmic Guide. Distinct from graveyard.recursion, which returns cards to hand instead of the battlefield, and from graveyard.self_mill, which only loads the yard. Self-returning creatures with Undying or landfall-style self-recursion are not reanimation spells in this sense.
