The Reanimate archetype in the Vintage Old Frame format is a strategy that seeks to put powerful creatures into play as quickly as possible, reanimating them from the graveyard to take advantage of their abilities and power.
This archetype is built around the use of spells like Reanimate, Animate Dead or Exhume, which allow a player to return a creature card from their graveyard to the battlefield.
The Reanimate archetype usually runs a combination of fast mana sources, graveyard manipulation spells, like Careful Study, and disrruption to enable the player to quickly put powerful creatures into play by reanimating them.
