So the idea here is to play a bunch of creatures that produce tokens once they head to the graveyard (was going to include Doomed Traveler but didn't feel there was enough white to justify it). Once there are enough bodies on the field, destroy all creatures with Bontu's Last Reckoning and get zombie tokens in return. Use cards like Necromancer's Stockpile and Cryptbreaker as draw engines and discard big monsters to later reanimate via Doomed Necromancer and Endless Obedience. Midnight Ritual is another way of taking the bodies that you took out with Reckoning and producing more bodies.

I know it needs some work but i'd like to keep the general idea of the deck. Any and all comments and up votes are appreciated.

This deck is no longer what I originally wanted as far as style and theme goes, but I like where its at. Made some heavy changes as I felt the deck was far too reliant on drawing a Grave Titan or Wurmcoil Engine then discard them with Cryptbreaker or Necromancer's Stockpile to try and cheat it out with something like Nim Deathmantle or Doomed Necromancer.... far too inconsistent sadly. It was fun when it happened though.

All that said, the deck is a lot more aggressive creature wise now but is still slower than i'd like with all the 3cmc cards and lack of draw power now.

Here are the changes:

Removed:
3x Doomed Necromancer
3x Necromancer's Stockpile
3x Cryptbreaker
2x Grave Titan
2x Wurmcoil Engine
3x Bontu's Last Reckoning
2x Nim Deathmantle

Added:
3x Diregraf Colossus
3x Damnation
3x Plague Belcher
3x Ammit Eternal
2x Relentless Dead
2x Gray Merchant of Asphodel
2x Liliana's Reaver

Again, it seems to run better but I would prefer more 1 and 2 cmc cards in to help out. The Gray Merchant of Asphodel I'm not entirely sold on yet. Early game it will just sit in my hand but late game could definitely save me. Now with the whole shift of the theme, I'm also debating pulling Grave Betrayal and Grimoire of the Dead. If I do remove those, Damnation is out too as the point to the wipe is to bring them all back from the graveyard while the opponent is defenseless. Pulling Gray, Grave, Grim, and Damn gives me 10 slots to work with but atm I am currently unsure of what to fill them with.

Any suggestions/Comments are greatly appreciated.
