Standard U/B zombie tribal for new standard. Utilizes Gisa and Geralf. Looking for help regarding consistency.

Mainboard

• Cryptbreaker- Amazing 1 drop, lets us discard zombies for more zombies allowing us to get value out of those in the graf. Also provides some card advantage in the late game.

• Wailing Ghoul- Pretty solid 2 drop. Good body for blocking and helps with reanimation shenanigans.

• Relentless Dead- The better of the 2 drops. Bad regeneration and can fetch zombies from the graf.

• Diregraf Colossus- The BEST zombie 3 drop in standard. Big body, benefits from self mill, and generates tokens for playing creatures.

• Prized Amalgam- Solid card, benefits from reanimation if it dies or is milled.

• Liliana, the Last Hope- <3 Amazing card for a little removal, self mill, and of course if we get to ultimate her, zombies upon zombies.

• Gisa and Geralf- Let the reanimation shenanigans begin. These two are a rather key piece. They let us return cards to the battlefield for their mana cost instead of paying for some crazy expensive spell to do it for us.

• Compelling Deterrence- Awesome control card. Resets planeswalkers, +1+1 counters (looking at you green and white), and allows us to draw a card.

• Collective Brutality- Hand disruption, removal, and life gain/drain. Added benefit of self discard for reanimation later.

• Geralf's Masterpiece- Excellent late game finisher.

• Dark Salvation- Can be cast for single black and lower more. Also zombies.

• Contingency Plan- Self mill for value

• Distended Mindbender- Destroys hands

• Rise from the Grave- Pretty good 5 drop that allows us to return one of our creatures or take one of their's.

Sideboard

The side board is more or less around a more control aspect.

• Dispel Cheap instant counter.

• Negate Best noncreature counter imo.

• Transgress the Mind Hand disruption.

• Biting Rain Board wipe against token and small creature decks (Cough Green and white)

• More Ruinous Path for planeswalkers and big creatures.

• Shamble Back For zombie match ups

• Crush of Tentacles Board wipe and big threat in late game.
