I'd Maybe replace lingering souls with Dark confidant and possibly replace tidehollow sculler with mesmeric fiend. it would cut you completely out of white and make the deck a bit more consistant without the 4th color

I have enough card draw with faithless looting so I wouldn't need dark confidant and lingering souls gives me a more valid discard target with faithless looting. I also run Tidehollow sculler because it's a zombie and it helps get my gravecrawlers back out.
Fair Enough. I have always preferred less colors because Im a poor college student and have no money for duals. but I agree on lingering souls but still disagree on tidehollow because He shouldn't be on the field as I always have played him for his sac combo. but to each his own.
I agree on less colors and everyone is poor when it comes to this game lol
I agree that Tidehollow is great in this deck, you can sacrifice it in response to it's enter the battlefield effect to have the exit the battlefield effect resolve before it, and then permanently exile the card(thus the nightmare effect), but not playing Blood Artist or Mox Diamond seems like a mistake in Zombardment to me.
You should probably credit Sam Black for making this deck...
Sam Black laid out such a wonderful basis for this deck, and started the archetype, but I think the deviations people make deserve credit unto themselves as well. People know Sam Black was the mind behind Zombardment, but others employ their own stylings within it.It may not be so far from the list, but it's farther from it than those in Standard claimed as their own a while back when Stoneblade was the talk of the town.
By that logic kmk I should be crediting everyone who ever made a deck then. Cause there's no way in hell I made a deck original without every card looking the same for some reason. That's why most competition decks are SO similar compared to all being different.
I'm not saying that your deviations don't make it original, I just think that it is similar enough to this: http://www.starcitygames.com/article/24929_Updating-Legacy-Zombies.html that you should at least give him some credit in the deck description.
Just because its similar it doesn't mean I should give credit to him?
Looks good, this is becoming the most standard build. Some will find room for a sword to plowshares or tragic slip, some will go half thoughtseize and half Inquisition of Kozilek. Not much to say other than that, not really a reason to mess with a deck that preforms so well already.
It boils down to more of a preference in the deck and I second that allocation :)
I would really love to see play this with my Zombie deck. http://www.mtgvault.com/mrslippy/decks/om-nom-zomb-bomb/
very interessting deck! Please checkthis out: http://www.mtgvault.com/thales120/decks/the-zombie-deck/
Deck looks good, I like it. But if I were you I'd cut the all other colors except black and red. And have a nice mana base. (also you can add "Geralf's Messenger" which is a great creature)You have very nice and cheap discard spells. So dealing with the permanents will be no problem for you. (add maybe some "Black Cat")And also dealing with creatures no problem because of the "Goblin Bombartment".Add 4 "Blood Artist" so you make the deck more focused on bombartment.
I like what you got going here, the only thing is I cant see why you would play Gravecrawler here, their should be a better creature for that slot since 4 of your zombies your probably going to sac for the ETB-LTB effect (sculler) and the other one is a removal magnet. I would suggest something that doesnt need the other zombies, like maybe brood of cockroaches, or since your playing jund you could use a punishing fire package and chandras pheonix, or Genesis if you find yourself with a lot of mana, or nether traitor (which would serve a dual purpose in making it so your opponent wont want to trade for some extra damage), what is the reason you run Gravecrawler?Also have you considered running Dryad Arbor for an extra creature you can tutor out with a fetchland?Also what is your sideboard plan?
Although Brood is not necessarily a bad idea, Gravecrawler is actually one of the biggest reasons this deck hit it big and debatably the most important card in the deck. Upping the stupidly recursive creature count from 4 (Bloodghast) to 8 was what pushed this deck to a competitive level, in my opinion. The obvious power of the card is impossible to miss; It's fodder for Cabal Therapy/Faithless Lootings/Goblin Bombardment alike with the assurance that by simply topdecking a zombie you can just cast it again later, and it's a good old aggressive 2/1 for 1. The card is frankly absurd.Although the point you make of not being able to use it to its full effect does come up sometimes. Some players choose a more zombie-heavy shell for this reason, making use of Geralf's Messenger or even Lotleth Troll/Zombie Infestation to ensure that they can recast that crawler for daysPunishing Burnwillows is certainly an interesting idea in this deck, but the top end right now pretty consistently is using activated abilities, recasting gravecrawler, or flashbacking spells, so I'm not convinced that there is room.
Deadapult? When I read the deck title, I thought Deadapult was the key card ...I also question the necessity to splash white.
for sculler and faithless looting targets such as lingering souls and stuff.
Doh ... I just question if that is necessary because running 4 colours is very demanding for the mana base and makes you vulnerable to non-basic hate and mana screws. Lingering Souls is good in this deck but the Sculler is a bad choice (you want to sacrifice it and that means the opponent gets his card back). And splashing a fourth colour into an aggro deck for just one card that doesn't win the game outright is rarely a good idea. Lingering Souls could be replaced with Sengir Autocrat, Awakening Zone, Squirrel Nest or something like this, a bit weaker but in colours you already have.
Or since Splooge is only running one copy of Abrupt Decay, could switch the mana base back to WBR, with one forest dual for purposes of Deathrite's creature ability.
That's also an option of course, but in any case, I would go down to 3 colours. If he keeps white, then for the Lingering Souls. Replacement for the Abrupt Decay would be Vindicate but if he had one, it would probably be in there already. Next best choice would be Mortify I guess.
Love it! :D
Thanks man :)
