Deck Description

Been running this in classic and legacy for about a week on MTGO, the deck can be a zombie aggro or synergy, how ever the cards fall, both work. Get blood artist on the field with a carrion feeder, add a gravecrawler or a messenger to the mix and start the blood bath. Diregraft captain is added for additional sacrifice damage and zombie pumping, messengers come in tapped and deal 2 damage when they enter field, if you have a blood artist it gets fun, 2 for field entry, 1 damabe( per blood artist) for sacrificing, undying kicks in and an additional 2 damage, that is 5 damage minimal, with multiple blood artists it gets broken IMO =) but what are zombies without a little brokeness??? Ponder and halimar land are in for card control to ensure you get the right cards. lose your feeders?? no worries unholy grotto brings them back with style, while also being a land. Urbog land is in so islands and unholy grotto can also play as swamps, or side board a zombie master in for swamp walk and (1)B regenerate. If you find yourself agains a much faster or stronger aggro deck, side board damnation in. 1 blood artist is devastating let alone 3... if they have a full field, and you have a damnation and even one blood artist.... the role is flipped, you are now winning. Tragic slip combos well with your sacrificing ability so you always have a -13 morbid effect. Geths verdict and vapor snag are both nice removals that deal those extra points of damage, geths verdict is also nice when you have blood artists on the field! Having a lot of fun with this deck and i hope you guys can use this or build your own ideas from this.

Deck discussion for Undead and undying

Fun combo to pull off here is with the unholy grotto, feeder and geralfs messenger. with or without the blood artist out. play the messenger for 2 damage, then sac him to feeder, giving feeder a +1/+1 counter. undying kicks in, he deals another 2 damage. Sacrifice him again giving feeder yet another +1/+1, and tap grotto to return the messenger from your grave yard to the top of your library. Continue to do this all you like. on top of the 4 damage a turn you will also be building a feeders power each turn by 2. -Another thing to consider, oblivion ring is the most played card today. you can sacrifice your feeder to its self should he become the target of such shinnanigans, and simple grotto him back to your deck. this works for any card they they should decide to attempt to ring.
