BLUE/BLACK zombie horde deck tech ---magic the gathering

[KristalSkittles]

@issacoreo i played a succesful BUG Zombie deck at FNM last week xD i use overrun ghoultree and rampant growths as my greens 4 rampants 1 tree and 3 overruns

[uddo3773]

@KristalSkittles nice man! sounds like an awsome idea!

[isaacoreo]

I'm starting a blue black green zombie deck, any ideas? I know its unique cuz ppl don't add green but any ideas? So far I have the basic blue black zombies but no cemetary reaper :/, but for green so far I have 2 Glissa, and 3 ghoultree any tips for other green zbz

[uddo3773]

@isaacoreo maybe just add some mulch's and tracker's insight and some mana ramp would help you alot if you have anymore questions just ask :)

[oomega01]

doesnt rooftop storm mean you dont have to pay the colorless manna but still pay the swamp manna? it just sounds too good to make the zombie's free to cast but only having to pay the colored manna seem to make it a slightly balanced card

[uddo3773]

@oomega01 it says you may cast zombies for 0 rather than pay its mana cost

[oomega01]

@uddo3773 fair enough, i thought it was just colorless because it said 0 in a colorless symbol but if your sure that saves me getting grief for it later thanks

[uddo3773]

@oomega01 your welcome :)

[Burkhart1945]

@uddo3773 can you go more into detail on Rooftop Storm? I want to use it but I'm not entirely sure how it works. Still kinda new to the game.

[uddo3773]

@Burkhart1945 what would you like to know about it?

[Burkhart1945]

@uddo3773 So you're saying that I can play, lets say a cemetary reaper, by just playing the two mana cost to cast the creature it's self?

[uddo3773]

@Burkhart1945 no im saying instead of paying any mana if you have rooftop storms out you could play it for 0 mana total meaning it just comes into play for free

[SeishinBunretsu]

I was building a Green/Black Zombie deck but honestly I blue/Black just seems so much better, but I can't get away from having NO mana acceleration in my deck, and I want to keep it to 60 cards so I'm weary about adding in another color :(

[uddo3773]

@SeishinBunretsu why not use sphere of the suns?

[SeishinBunretsu]

@uddo3773 It's not reliable enough in my oppinion, and it acts as just another land. The decklist I have with Green/Black is capable of putting a lot of land down and very fast. Plus sphere only lasts for 3 mana

[uddo3773]

@SeishinBunretsu would you mind sending me your decklist so i can see what you got?

[SeishinBunretsu]

@uddo3773 I've sent it, but I think I might have a solution using Panoptic Mirror + something like Dark Ritual

[MyLostKauz]

For the undead alchemist, do you get a 2/2 zombie token for each creature? So like i mill him for like 3 and 2 of them are creature so i get 2 2/2 zombie token or just one?

[uddo3773]

@MyLostKauz you get 2 zombie tokens

[LubartowGelo]

I have in my deck some skinrenders. They can help in killing some annoying low hp stuff

[uddo3773]

@LubartowGelo skinrenders r really nice and since there a zombie they fit perfect!

[MrBearcat25]

need some airfare...opponent builds up a flyer you can't bounce/remove and you have a problem. I sideboard in stitched drakes and cobbled wings. Keeps the board in my favor. Hope that helps

[uddo3773]

@MrBearcat25 nice idea's the gobbled wings is a better option in my opinion because any old zombie token can just throw it on block and die and then u still got the wings to eqiup to another zombie

[Deathbladewarrior]

would like to see a dark ascension updated version of this deck, excellent video :)

[uddo3773]

@Deathbladewarrior when i get my decklist finilized i will :)

[21sizeman]

This is amazing

[uddo3773]

@21sizeman thanks man

[Dorkouttoit]

Hey thanks for the advice really good deck build hoping to team up in the future with some advice and things \

[Dorkouttoit]

thank you for the great explanations I am trying to build a sweet zombie deck.

[uddo3773]

@Dorkouttoit your welcome! :)

[xValanirX]

when I saw army of the damned I literally said DAYUM

[Barassario]

I play something very similar but I add in counters like mana leak and vapor snag to stop opponents using board clears like day of judgement and mass summons such as white suns which ice found can really mess a deck like this up. Food for though

[uddo3773]

@Barassario board cleaners is its worth enemy ive changd a few things in this deck ive added mana leak but i kept the ghoulcallers chant's cause 2 zombie's for 1 black with rooftop storms on the feild is just so much fun! :D

[togethergutlesss]

roof top storms dosent let you play zombies for free it just makes the colorless part of there mana 0 any colord parts of there mana you still have to pay just saying.

[uddo3773]

@togethergutlesss it says "you may pay (0) than pay the mana cost for zombie creature spells you cast

[togethergutlesss]

@uddo3773 ik that. that is what i said and i own the card

[togethergutlesss]

@uddo3773 and also in magic when the simbole is (0) and gray it normuly just stands for the none colored mana of the cards mana cost

[uddo3773]

@togethergutlesss i understand this sir. got any usefull infromation?

[togethergutlesss]

@uddo3773 nope and you know you dont have to comment to what i say.at this point i get the feeling all you want is to pick a fight im not intrested.

[uddo3773]

@togethergutlesss thanks for watching the video i hope you enjoyed.

[flumbaisk]

@togethergutlesss Nope, you just pay 0 for it.

[QuinnJ14]

@togethergutlesss and since it says you may pay 0 rather than pay the mana cost, the overall mana cost includes color mana cost

[andr3w68]

lmfao... this is almost identical to the deck i just made over the weekend... glad to see i wasnt the only one with this idea... i have a link to what im running. It might help you with what you want to add or take out... jus tlet me know if you want it...

[IoSonoMeLaVendetta]

too much x1....try with liliana of the veil, evil twin or anything but army of the dead...13 TAPPED zombies.......there are better things

[uddo3773]

@IoSonoMeLaVendetta ive already thought this out had some changes gotta update soon

[ximbabwe0228]

I think Call to the Grave is a very undervalued card. If you're playing all zombies, you're not required to sacrifice anything, plus it populates the graveyard for your Cemetery Reapers. The Tutor is a very good idea. Maybe sub out Vengeful Pharaoh for like Grave Titan? Or Sheoldred? With the current build (which I think is very strong) that could work. Since you're playing blue/black, I'd say DOOM BLADE and/or mana leak to deal with their removal or pesky big creatures. But overall good deck.

[uddo3773]

@ximbabwe0228 thanks for the feedback man the reason i dont have any of these cards in this deck is because i dont have them except the doomblade and mana leak i just dont know what i wanna take out to place them in and call to the grave is amazing! would render there creatures useless
