I love me some combos. I don't think it's that bad at all. The first time I played this deck I generated a ton of zombie tokens with Undead Alchemist so it's definitely possible to further abuse it. It's just a matter of playing the deck some more to see what should come out.

Conspiracy would help those creatures you want in the deck that aren't your tribal type!

I like the idea. What would you replace?

Centre? what? was that intentional or not?

Forbidden Alchemy seems a bit expensive for the effect. That would be what I would take out.

@ MrBronson Forbidden Alchemy "draws" me a card and puts three in my graveyard, likely giving me a zombie if I have Sidisi out. Flashback is expensive, but it's essentially a 4 for 1 if played carefully. It's going to stick around for now.

DERPLINGSUPREME Centre~Center. The upside to having a French influence on your Canadian English. Sometimes we add a u to things too, neither way is wrong.

Cool deck man. Only thing I'm concerned about is the fact that you have 5 tutors, 2 of which are for lands. How's the consistency?

Honestly I haven't had enough time to really test it out lately. It played really well in the one game I ran it.

Aight, fair enough. If you do get some solid testing in, let me know if you have any specific concerns. I'll be glad to help you out.

Mesmeric Orb is a really good way to produce lots of zombie tokens and fill your grave. Each untap causes a separate trigger to go on the stack, so each creature you mill with it will give you a zombie if sidisi is on the field.

Hmm. It seems like a good interaction, just wondering how often I'd end up not using it to its full potential for fear of killing myself.

One of the guys in my playgroup uses it and has a Gaea's Blessing in his deck to protect against self mill. If your budget allows for it, an even better option would be a kozilek or an ulamog. In the absolute worst case, everybody else is going to be getting milled also, and they aren't getting an army of 2/2's for it.

Yeah. Worst case scenario I throw a couple guys that shuffle themselves in into the deck. I do like Gaea's Blessing. Big fan of cantrips with useful upside lol. I have some tweaking to do with this deck and to also compare it to the IRL version to confirm its the same-ish.

Victimize is a must for any Sidisi EDH.

+1 for the fantastic name and intro. I really like the build, one focused on a Zombie Apocolypse and solid cards. I certainly looks fun to play!!

Thanks! It is super fun to play, lots of decisions and fun interactions at a reasonable power level.

Nice brew! +1.

I'd recommend something like Commune with the Gods or Buried Alive. Both work nicely with Sidisi.

Also, It's probably counter-intuitive, but Glimpse the Unthinkable could work wonders with Sidisi as well.

Buried Alive does good things, but as far as the other two go I try to avoid single use spells unless they're ramp. The format can be long winded and so many single use spells just don't have enough impact in a 15-20 turn game as they would in a 5-6 turn game.

I think what I need is a way to better interact with the opponents, to hold off a 3 v 1 battle since for whatever reason this deck puts me ahead and then can't close. It can't properly weather the storm.

Maybe you could run Primal Vigor to drop a bunch of zombies, but also make token decks feel welcomed to be playing with you? Then you could wipe them at just the right time.
