Chainer, Nightmare Adept would be a great fit in a graveyard-focused deck that aims to recur creatures for value and surprise plays. While there may be other powerful reanimation cards like Reanimate or Animate Dead, Chainer's ability to give haste to creatures entering the battlefield from the graveyard can provide a unique advantage in aggressive strategies, making it a strong contender for inclusion in decks looking to exploit the graveyard as a resource.

Rules

08/23/19

Chainer’s last ability triggers if Chainer enters the battlefield without being cast from your hand.

08/23/19

If you somehow activate Chainer’s first ability more than once during a turn (perhaps because Chainer left the battlefield and returned), you can cast a creature card for each ability’s permission. Similarly, if another effect allows you to cast a creature card from your graveyard, you may use that permission and later use Chainer’s permission to cast another creature card.

08/23/19

You don’t choose a creature card to cast while activating or resolving Chainer’s first ability. The ability creates a permission for you to cast a creature card from your graveyard later in the turn.
