Zombie recurrence, and token generation. The deck is a "grave's-weight-of-dirt" worth of fun if you like graveyard/board interaction!


The bulk of the deck consists of cheap, super-synergized zombie spells, to leapfrog over one another from the graveyard to the field, to pump and swarm through different triggers, as the game progresses.

Gravecrawler is the cheapest and main fuel for recurrence, but there are other ways to interact with the graveyard through Unearth , Relentless Dead , and Geralf's Messenger .

Go-wide token generation is the main archetype. Token tools include:
Cryptbreaker - For help getting creature cards into the graveyard for Diregraf Colossus . Also, extra land, and Zombie Infestation s and Gravecrawler s.

Zombie Infestation - Same utility as Cryptbreaker .

Desecrated Tomb - a 1/1 flyer when Gravecrawler , Unearth , Relentless Dead , or Geralf's Messenger utilize recurrence.

Diregraf Colossus - Zombie Tokens for Zombies cast.

The aggro side of the deck fits well with the recurrence early game on. With Carrion Feeder + Gravecrawler leapfrogging from turn 2 and on, if no other options worth playing are available.

Diregraf Colossus can get pretty nasty after discarding or aggro-ing a bunch of creatures to the graveyard, and is definitely a board threat.

Relentless Dead aggros out with some evasion and offers recursion of itself and/or other rot-bois.

Geralf's Messenger 's Undying coupled with its ETB effect (opp -2 life), are nearly broken. It pairs so well with any sac outlet and recurrence, just one can be a wincon on its own.

First write up; feels clunky. Will refine later. Thanks for checking it out! As always, playtest and drop your thoughts in the comments!
