Just a 75% Scarab God zombie tribal deck, nothing too special.

Combos and strong synergies:

• Grimgrin + Rooftop Storm + Gravecrawler + Plague Belcher / Diregraf Captain wins on the spot

• Grimgrin + Rooftop Storm + Gravecrawler + Diregraf Colossus makes an arbitrarily large number of zombie tokens

• Duskmantle Guildmage + Mindcrank loops to mill out opponents and make them lose life equal to the number of cards in their libraries

• Nim Deathmantle + Ashnod's Altar. With Geralf's Messenger you win on the spot. Those two artifacts with Grave Titan make infinite colorless mana and zombie tokens but can't win immediately; with Overseer of the Damned you can destroy all nontoken creatures your opponents control; with Geralf's Mindcrusher you can mill out your opponents. Drunau Corpse Trawler also loops with them but doesn't do anything else unless you have out Plague Belcher / Diregraf Captain for the win or Dictate of Erebos for a one-sided boardwipe.

• Kicked Rite of Replication + Gray Merchant of Asphodel: Drains each opponent for at least 60 life, usually enough to get the job done.

• Kicked Rite of Replication + Overseer of the Damned : kill up to 5 creatures and make up to 30 zombie tokens :)

Possible additions

• Altar of the Brood
• Life's Finale
• Muddle the Mixture
• Dark Deal
• I really need more and cheaper mass removal. Gives me enough time to stabilize and provides more reanimation targets. Necromantic Selection just isn't cutting it.
• I have yet to be in a situation where I wanted to see Arcane Lighthouse. I need to replace it with something that generates colored mana, especially in a deck with this many double and triple mana requirements.

War of the Spark update

• Lord of the Accursed -> Gleaming Overseer
• Drunau Corpse Trawler -> Vizier of the Scorpion
