Fellow MTG Enthusiasts,

I'm relatively new to MTG and I wanted to give a mono - black zombie deck a shot.

The overall concept, end game is simple: Buff my zombies to do chip damage / mill as much of my library until I can cast Lotleth Giant to eradicate the balance of my opponent's life points.


Highlights of Deck:

  1. Milling my own library is accomplished with "Stitcher's Supplier", "Crow of Dark Tidings" creatures and Liliana Planeswalker's (+1) Ability.

  2. When LotLeth Giant is cast (6/5) its ability will activate such that "It deals 1 damage to target opponent for EACH creature card in my graveyard". In parallel, "Diregraf Colossus (Creature)" is cast as a (2/2) with an ability where " +1/1 Counter for each Zombie in the graveyard." -The more zombie milling, the better -

  3. Death Baron is used to provide a solid buff to all zombies that have been cast with a +1/+1, deathtouch added.

  4. The ability to search my milled graveyard for 'the' cards I need are supplied by casting "Gravedigger (creature)", "Relentless Dead (creature)", "Volrath's Stronghold (Land)", "Unholy Grotto (Land)".

  5. "Cabal's Coffers (Land)" and "Crucible of Worlds (artifact) is to provide mana ramp, the ability to play lands that were milled for the greater cause.

  6. "Kokusho, the Evening Star (Creature)" to provide late game protection from 'Flying' hazards provides me a +5 to my life, and -5 to my opponents, if it is sent to the graveyard. It is a solid deterrent to buy me time if need - be.

I am looking for your feedback to see what I can change to better fine tune my mana ramping / if I need to add & remove certain creatures & spells.

Thanks again, your expertise is greatly appreciated!

MTG Enthusiasts,

I've added a sideboard that would provide a little more flexibility in terms of milling, stalling (if need be) as follows:

  1. Tortured Existence (x4) to be used in the case that I feel that there is a greater need to acquire specific cards milled in place of those in my hand.

  2. Exsanguinate (x4) to be used in the case that I need more longevity, stall before I draw what I need to complete my end game requirements.
