This deck looks pretty nice but there are somethings I'd suggest

1.) You might want to put Diregraf Ghoul into this deck. It's one for a 2/2 that comes into play tapped which is a nice first turn move. Maybe take out or replace Walking Corpse because it's kind of just a two for a 2/2. Nothing really special when there are better zombies out there.

2.) If it's possible go with 2 Cemetery Reapers, 1 Lord of the Undead and 1 Death Baron. They all give other Zombies +1/+1 but Lord of the Undead can bring zombies back from your graveyard and Death Baron gives them Deathtouch which is always a nice ability. Also, Undead Warchief is a great card. It does cost 4, but it causes Zombies to cost 1 less and gives them a +2/+1 which in my opinion really good.

3) I'd say replace Doom Blade with Dismember. Doom Blade can only kill non-Black creatures. So lets say if your playing a Black deck or someones best shit is Black. You can't kill it with a Doom Blade making it kind of a dead draw. I know this from experience and it gets really annoying.

4) Since this deck looks like it would lack on creatures for a few turns. It would be a good idea to put in a Grave Titan or 2. It really helps and it's a decent bomb. When I usually play Grave Titan, I can notice people start to get a little worried and sometimes try and figure out ways to get rid of it as soon as possible. It helps. Also, Endless Ranks of the Dead. It's a great card. You are constantly growing in zombie tokens so you can have chump blockers and still hit heavy. It usually bring me a win if you can overwhelm with zombies.

Those are just some of my ideas that I think might help. You can check out my zombie deck you want, you may get an idea. My zombie deck is Standard though, so I do not have a lot of the cards I mentioned in it. Hope it helped a little.

Thanks, I'll keep in mind your suggestions when I go card hunting again :-)

1.) Believe it or not I haven't been able to get any Diregraf Ghouls. If I had any they would replace the Walking Corpse.

2.) Had a look at a few of the cards you mentioned and I will be keeping an eye out for them for sure. At the moment all I have are the Cemetary Reapers.

3.) Dismember has also eluded me, the two I have are in my friends deck :P
I'll replace the Doom Blades once I get my dismembers back, or get more.

4.) Another card I lack, but will be looking for. Grave Titan is the logical choice to lead the zombie hordes into battle :D
