A deck that focuses on graveyard recursion and aggressive strategies, such as a Black-Red Reanimator or Aristocrats deck, would benefit from including Shallow Grave. While Shallow Grave offers a quick way to bring back a creature with haste, there are other cards like Reanimate or Animate Dead that provide similar effects without the downside of exile at the end of the turn. However, Shallow Grave can still be a powerful and unexpected play in the right deck, adding versatility and surprise factor to your gameplay.
