This deck heavily relies on combo's to make lots of zombies for various effects which is why I run a lot of tutors/transmutes to help get things needed quicker. There are ways to get Sidisi out on turn 3, then dredge immediately to build a board presence.

Combo 1: Mesmeric Orb + Basalt Monolith or Aphetto Alchemist or Seeker of Skybreak. Tap any of those to uptap itself, mill for infinite zombies.

Combo 2: This is a back up plan but takes a few more cards to still give you a good chunk of zombies depending on your mana. Street Wraith + Tortured Existence + Golgari Brownscale (though, any dredge card will work at the loss of 2 life; brownscale just mitigates the life loss. This combo works if you have Tortured Existence out, Street Wrath in your hand, and Brownscale in your yard. Cycle Street Wrath with two life, dredge two to get back Brownscale and gain two life. You net 2 cards in your yard, hopefully you get a zombie. Then, pay B to discard Brownscale to Tortured Existence, get back Street Wrath and repeat. You are almost certain to net a zombie if lets say Extractor Demon is out. You can also use this combo to board wipe if Grave Pact is out.

Combo 3: Gravecrawler + Phyrexian Altar + Grimgrin, Corpse-Born for infinitely huge Grimgrin for a swing out, or sac to Altar of Dementia. With Grave Pact out, you will board wipe then swing for a victory. Extractor Demon then you also made infinite zombies. Or if Diregraf Captain is out, you can skip Grimgrin all together, and just win with damage to everyone.

Decided to run a little control with Opposition. Figured if I have a lot of zombies but not enough to take anyone out with, I can at least protect myself from attackers. Sadistic Hypnotist for card advantage or at least a sac dump to save from exiling. Beguiler of Wills is a nice card if I am fighting big monster decks where a bunch of 2/2 zombies have zero effect. I'll just take the big baddie, perhaps sac him to the Hypnotist or Greater Good to board clear. "Untap" creatures are great to untap Beguiler to repeat this step. If Prophet of Kruphix is out, things will get annoying real quick and my win con becomes doing things with opponents creatures instead of my weenie zombies.

This deck can excel as a opposition lockdown control deck thingy for another $500... so this is a stepping stone for a more zombie token control deck.

Please point out any combo's I missed or some that would be great for this deck. All help is greatly appreciated!
