Deck Description

Undeck: undead decking (milling with zombies).

* Codex Shredder: Chose this over Ghoulcaller's Bell because I don't want to mill myself.
* Sands of Delirium: Can mill at end of opponent's turn with any extra mana. Basically free milling!
* Trepanation Blade: double milling with Undead Alchemist!

* Geralf's Mindcrusher: Mills 5-10 cards, strong zombie for more Undead Alchemist milling
* Jace's Phantasm: Doesn't mill, but 1 mana for a 5/5 flyer! Can't pass it up. This could win the game with pure damage dealing if the opponent can't deal with flyers
* Rotcrown Ghoul: Mills 5 on death, but a little slow to get out a 3/3
* Undead Alchemist: Essential to deck operation

* Curse of the Bloody Tome: Mill 2 per turn.
* Endless Ranks of the Dead: works with Undead Alchemist to make lots of zombies. A little slow (high cost and you round down).

* Dream Twist: Mill 6 for 3 mana, and gets exiled. I prefer mind sculpt except this is an instant
* Murder: No milling, but clears the way for creatures
* Psycic Spiral: 2-3x because I'll only use it once

* Increasing Confusion: Mill X, and same flashback cost for double (tripple!) effect
* Mind Sculpt: Mill 7 for 2 mana, but at sorcery speed.

Sideboard

* Ghoulcaller's Bell: 2x because it only mills one-at-a-time, but it mills me for a more effective Psychic Spiral

* Shiekgeist: Not a zombie, but is fast and flies, and mills on player hit

How to Play

Basically get the Undead Alchemist into play, and then start milling for more zombies.
