  3. Haakon, Stromgald Scourge + Nameless Inversion - Near infinite removal.

  4. Diregraf Colossus + Haakon, Stromgald Scourge + Nameless Inversion - Near infinite removal that now nets me a 2/2 zombie each time.

I've been waiting on a 2 drop zombie sacrifice outlet to finally put modern zombies on the map, competitively, for far too long now. Something like Bloodthrone Vampire. I can't keep brewing jank modern tribal decks that never play as exciting as they would if a couple legacy cards were added simply because they need to adhere to a format. It gets boring. I just want my Haakon, Stromgald Scourge to see play every game. It's what made me start brewing this deck a decade ago, before I ever found Tapped Out.

So I've added Buried Alive, Animate Dead, Carrion Feeder, and Unholy Grotto.

This has allowed me to add some other modern cards, like Mikaeus, the Unhallowed and change the ratios of existing cards in the deck. My mana curve is better. My 3 drop spot isn't ridiculous anymore, as with all modern zombie decks. I'm not competitive with top tier legacy decks, I'm not trying to be. I wasn't competitive with top tier modern decks and I was trying to be. Now, I can compete with those top tier modern decks in a kitchen table environment. I'm having fun again, with true zombie tribal.
