Deck Description

Bringing Zombies back with a spinjitsu style attack. Looking for more synergy with Zombies, came up with an idea using sac abilities and the new Legend rules allowing both Garruk's on the board.

How to Play

Not much of a stompy turn 5 win, but it has some resiliency to keep pouring on the token creatures or using regeneration to your advantage. Look to put out either Garruk to pimp out some wolves and beasties to get the sac engine nice and lubricated. Desecration Demon acts like a removal engine every combat step, while Tragic Slip gets taken full advantage of the saced creatures.

Sideboard combos include Primeval Bounty, sac Gravecrawler, cast Gravecrawler for a Beastie is nice, not to mention Putrefy a blocker add 3 +1/+1 counters on an attacking creature. Vraska subs in for more permanent hate, while Gaze and Decay are there for more flexibility in your removal.

Deck discussion for Tenacious Z

Nice deck. I like the way that varolz helps setup the rest of the playability. plus the indirect creature destruction is a great addition to help your creatures get through (desecration demon is SICK). It's also fairly quick casting, with most of the cards being less than 3 cmc. The only thing that concerns me is the mana fixing. You have a lot of gold cards that are important to the deck so I just worry a little about that. The dual lands you have will help tremendously but it still makes me a bit nervous lol. Also just a quick question. Why is predatory ooze in your sideboard? I think that would be a great addition in your main deck, especially with rancor. Anyway great job :)

I am in the process of changing the main and side board to accommodate an all around game. The foundation will be the same, just an upgrade at the 4 and 5 cmc to keep blockers and sac-ables around.
