Zombies, sacrifice, card draw. What more could an aspiring necromancer need? Been building and playing this deck for a decade now. The goal is to overwhelm with a zombie horde, and if that fails, then do an uninspired combo out with Gray Merchant of Asphodel

Zombie Master + Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth make all zombies unblockable. Similarly, Nemesis Mask makes n-1 zombies unblockable, which is really good when one of those are Unstoppable Slasher. Nemesis Mask also pairs extremely well with the very high amount of deathtouch in this deck, whether through Wand of Orcus, Death Baron, or the natural deathtouch from something like Grave Titan.

We have a lot of pump between Mikaeus, the Unhallowed, Undead Warchief, Lord of the Undead, Death Baron, Banner of Kinship, Door of Destinies

Gravecrawler/Bloodghast + Skullclamp gets the cards flowing.

Gravecrawler + Warren Soultrader + Ayara, First of Locthwain wins the game.

Vilis, Broker of Blood + Necropotence draws a silly amount of cards.

Needs more cards that draw/cycle to increase deck consistency.
