Loam Pox is a cool deck. Evolutionary Leap is a cool card. I wanted to try to fit the two together, so here it goes.

The main synergy is zombie infestation + Leap, which allows you to discard 2 cards, make a guy, then sac the guy to get a creature into your hand. With loam added, every turn you can make 2 zombies from just 1 and 3 mana, essentially.

The deck can combo kill with either a big conflagrate, which can be aided through Leap, or a Rally the Ancestors for X = 2 or 3. I might take out the rally and go for more grindy creatures and less combo-necessary creatures, but I don't know either way.

I don't have the infestations IRL, so I can't give matchup advice or anything for what I usually encounter. Every other part of the deck, though, I own, which is why there might be some weird card selections, especially in the manabase.

I'm iffy on if I need spot removal, which I might, in the main. Especially Decays and Paths.
