A modern 'Zombie' deck centering around the Gravcrawler and Blood Artist/Diregraf Captain combo.

I started experimenting with running Relentless Dead and am really liking it, I think I'll replace the last Butcher Ghoul with another Relentless Dead, really adds more use to the self mill of Thought Scour.

I'll be taking it to it's first modern meet up this week to test it out, so I can write up a more detailed analysis of what does and doesn't work.

In the mean time any general thoughts on the deck on where to improve or possible side board cards would be great. eg. Thoughtseize, Swan Song, etc

Obvious weaknesses include graveyard hate, the only real defense against that are the Compelling Deterrence and NegatesA couple more mutilates to sideboard in might be useful against tokens/swarms of creatures.
