All zombies with regenerate for just one {B} -Zombie Master its the guy behind this little help
Carrion Feeder + Gravecrawler = a lot of power
Unholy Grotto can bring Zombie from cemetery to the top of my library if I want...
Cabal Coffers along with Urborg will give me a lot of mana to spend
Phyrexian Tower along with Gravecrawler will let me add some counters on Carrion Feeder, and after the attack I can bring Gravecrawler back with the one mana I made with him(Phyrexian tower made..)
Mindcrank+Bloodchief Ascension(with 3 counters)= inf dmg+inf mill+inf life gain---(Moved to sideboard)
Some tutor artifacts that will help to get your zombies+ Coat of arms

i like this deck idk any zombies with flying or reach but you could replace the khabal ghoul with festering goblin and take out your stormgald crusdaer and infiltration lens and put in 4 phyrexian crusaders yeah it has infect but it would give you a second way of killing someone and with the other creatures you have to pump it up will make it a beast plus pro red and white is nice :) hope it helps can you check this deck out and let me no what you think

Hey Aliski :-)
I see your problem. My advice is to remove the Khabal Ghoul completely and put in 2 x Dark Ritual for a lean, mean, 60-card Zombie-machine :)
A while back I wanted to make a zombie deck very much similar to yours, however, Death Baron went crazy up in price and still is!
Good build here, bro

Actually I like the Khabal Goul / Carrion feeder combo. With the low cost Diregraf ghoul and the never ending supply of gravecrawlers. you could have some huge zombies. I think if i was building this deck I would drop Mask of Memory and infiltration lens. add 4 entomb to get grave crawlers into the graveyard. lean mean FAST zombie deck.

Well, its a way to have my gravecrawlers there, but entomb its a bit too expensive for me haha.
I'll leave the Khabal ghoul on my sideboard, I'll give it some plays to see how it works..
The entomb idea its really nice, gonna check if I can get some of these at a lower price than the sites ones.

also kind of pointless to have swampwalk and deathtouch. I'd also swap Lord of the Undead and Death Baron.

Deathtouch will be for blocking, I can block whoever I want if my gravecrawler with deathtouch and kill them, my gravecrawler will die too, but he is a special little guy...

yeah but you can block then sacrifice before damage is dealt. Gravecrawler cant block.

Well, thats true kkkk
Forgot about that, well, but I guess u got what I wanted to say right?
Death touch will be for blocking!! (not with gravecrawler) haha ;P

Deathtouch is also brutal for attacking - especially with Gravecrawler because of its recursion. If only Black got something like a "Lure" That would be insane. How do you deal with creatures with flying?

Check out my Angel Stompy and tell me what you think :D

Seems like you almost (ALMOST) copied my front page Zombie Deck. It was on the front page about two months ago though...

Feel free to take a look for inspiration, including how to deal with flyers. 143 likes so far. I would say it is well worth the look for an aspiring undead overlord like yourself.

If you like it, please take a look at some of my other decks and drop me a few comments. Several of them are close to going front page, three of them already have.

Haha,got to admit, the land part was all your idea, I saw it there !!
Guess I have already commented on your deck ;D
Stillmoon Cavalier...Nice way to deal with flyers, gonna check this card and maybe put it into my deck/sideboard
Thanks again man ;D

Ah yeah, didn't notice your other comments, lol. Glad you like the land and the flying zom knight. Glad to have provided inspiration, though I'd appreciate a nod in your deck description. I've based plenty of decks around other's decks, just give credit, even if only for some inspiration.

You're right, I'm not a big fan of infinite combos, and either one of those cards alone will make you a big target in multiplayer, which is what I tend to play. My best decks will either go off so fast a table can't deal with them, or will subtly build up and then go off with a boom where they wipe the whole table (which is what my zom deck does), but all my decks are supposed to be multiplayerish. I've seen that combo before anyway, the most difficult part is setting Ascension off. I honestly don't think you will find it or mindcrank to be very useful in this deck, the alternate win strat is just too different from what all the other cards in your deck are designed to do, and if you only have two of each card the combo is very difficult to get out and lost if ever disrupted.

Anyway, if you would care to drop a comment on any of my other decks I'd appreciate it. These two in particular are close to front page.

Oh, and PS. I'm totally using the build for your knights deck on Cockatrice. I may edit it slightly, but to be fair, I provided a lot of input and put a lot of time in to finding good cards for it. It's basically the now knight deck that I've always wanted to build but never got around to until you provided me with the motivation to assist you in building it, lol.

Thanks for the credit! Look for me on there, same name as on here. Add me and we'll have a few matches. What times are you often on at? I play most often on weekends, and I'm in Australia ATM so my clock is 12 hours ahead of Eastern Standard Time (if you're in the Americas).

Rather than going for the abused Carrion Feeder/Gravecrawler combo, I'd stick with a more classic approach, and find some place for useful cards like Lord of the Undead, Endless Ranks of the Dead, and maybe some other token generator like Zombie Infestation + Volrath's Stronghold or Haunted Crossroads.

P.s. Bump to the front page. You're welcome.

Haha,thanks for my bump ;P
I let Lord of the Undead on my sideboard, but, you are suggesting to switch carrion feeder+gravecrawler for Lord of the undead+ some spells/enchants?

0

Not exactly. Gravecrawler is still vital, I would get rid only of Carrion Feeder.
What I had in mind was "Tokenizing" the deck a little, with the enchantments I wrote. Lord of the Undead allows you to recover zombies you discard for Zombie Infestation, for example. You can do that with a Gravecrawler too, and replay it.

But I see your deck is really oriented towards the Carrion Feeder/Gravecrawler combo, so these are advices you probably wouldn't like very much :)

why don't u add some Undead Warchief?it's always good in zombie decks,and bad moon is awesome too, maybe door of destiny is better than coat of arms,atleast for your side in case u play against a tribal deck,elfs and goblin hurt hehe

I know you said no on Warchief, what about Army of the Damned even if sideboraded. You got endless ranks, and the combo could result in some really fun end games!

I would suggest adding a little more basic land preferably three more swamps.Or throw in a couple of Transguild Promenade to do the trick.

Why adding more swamps? My urborg makes all lands swamps and cabal coffers help me even more with its ability
