Tenacious Dead would be beneficial in a deck that focuses on recurring creatures from the graveyard or sacrificing creatures for value. Decks that utilize sacrifice effects, graveyard recursion, or strategies that benefit from having a constant presence on the battlefield would find Tenacious Dead useful. However, there are potentially better options like Bloodghast or Reassembling Skeleton that offer similar effects with added benefits, so the decision to include Tenacious Dead would depend on the specific synergies and strategies of the deck.
