Hrm, I dunno about Swiftfoot Boots in particular, but it might be a good idea to use something like that =/

I love Abby, one of my favorite black creatures to be honest. I also just love how "black" the card is...as in the black mentality of "I'm going too mash your face into a fine paste even if it kills me too!"

One card I've always had fun pairing with Abby is Rite of Consumption...so maybe find a way to squeeze that in =P

Undying is an amazing ability, and yeah, I think the use of Strangleroot in Pod is dirty, especially with haste =P

By the way, the Death Cultist is a nice touch.

Well, excuse my being so blunt, but standard kids are freaking idiots.

I have another zombie tribal that is more focused on the classic design that's jam packed with zombie lords, and it's nice and everything, but this one I wanted to focus on the classic depiction of zombies in the media: An endless horde that just keeps coming.

Well actually, yes, it is different. For one, having a conversation among friends is much different than having one with yourself, and then deleting all those comments. Plus, people would have to be originally interested in my deck to start up a conversation. But if being up on the front page is really that big of a deal to you, then by all means.

Remember when I said Birthing Pod would be really powerful, and everyone else said it was going to be crap?

Yeah, so do I...

It's painfully obvious that both of you boosted your decks up, so enjoy them while they're still up.

Tell him it's not about the mana base. Two triple colored cards of differing colors in a deck, regardless of if it can hope to cheat them in with Bloodbraid are putting in a substantial amount of mana burden. He could do so much better with another Pridemage or two, maybe a pair of Teegs, hell he could put in two KoTR (which would also smooth out the splash a bit more). Of course, if he truly wants to stick to the idea of a haste-aggro, then fleshing out the Ram-Gang wouldn't hurt, but like WnB and I have said, it's not entirely the best option. Again, hope this helps =]

And here we see Ethan experience his newest lesson on his way to being a top class Legacy player =D

What you have, right there, is called a power balance. Junk and Dirt seems to have to do it more often other things, but it's something that you'll have to work with eventually. Think of it as a strange kind of see-saw...you take away from one thing to throw the balance off to another. So there lies the skill: Can you best determine when is the right time to shift the power balance to the other side? I bet you can =P

And while WnB mentions one example with Snappy and Lavamancer, another one that I was recently asked about actually is Lake of the Dead and Cabal Coffers.

What kind of budget is your buddy looking at, because he could turn this thing into one hell of a sleek Naya Toolbox. I also don't think I like the Ball Lightning/Ground Breaker set up in here, it ruins the flow of the whole deck, and with triple colored mana requirements, they add a substantial amount of mana burden...something a deck like this can't handle. Finally, his manabase needs to be adjusted. With how much white is being splashed, he doesn't need to run that single Plains. I would take that out and put in a Horizon Canopy.

Hope that helps your buddy =]

I like the design a lot, it seems pretty effective. Plus, it's Orzhov, so that's an automatic 1,000 cool points =P

One thing I'd change is the Stillmoons. I've never liked them, and I think you could do a hell of a lot more damage with Lingering Souls =]

I've played against 2 different Shirei EDHs, and both of them were incredibly annoying...this one doesn't disappoint =P

I would suggest Pawn of Ulamog. Not just for this but really for any black EDH running Grave Pact and/or Skullclamp (which, by the way, needs to be in this). I've been repeatedly impressed by how much of a boon PoU can be =]

Pretty sure giving any deck Jin-Gitaxias won't end well...

And yeah, ANT has fallen from its former glory, and it's fallen HARD.

The thing I'll always say is the #1 way to get your decks noticed is to get yourself known. Be helpful, show up on as many decks as you can. Even if it's the smallest measure of advice, or a suggestion of one card, it's still something, and people will appreciate that. I have close to four THOUSAND posts...and I'd venture to say that about 80% or more of those aren't even on my own decks =]
