Liliana and loads of Zombies

Commander / EDH Mono-Black Zombie

Yetimaan


Hello all,

I have been playing commander for about five years now and have been updating my decks over time. I'm new here on tapped out and hope that maybe I get some further tips on my builds.

This here is my pet deck. It's a Liliana themed Zombie tribal. I do love Zombies ever since I started playing during the Onslaught block so of course I did originally start building around Gisa and Geralf. But I soon noticed that I enjoy Necromancy so much more then Stitching and turned to mono black and Liliana, Heretical Healer   made me go for a Liliana theme. I had all Liliana's in it but started taking the two weekest ones out.

So here is where I'm at right now. The deck runs pretty well. The main weekness of course is graveyard hate (a Rest in Piece just slows me down a lot) but for the most part I am pretty happy.

Do you maybe have some fun ideas still? I love my Carrion Feeder + Grave Pact + Gravecrawler or Ashnod's Altar + Grave Pact + Grave Titan Combos. I did have Dictate of Erebos as well but most often was able to find Grave Pact with the tutor options and decided to stick with the cheaper one and rather fit in Torment of Hailfire as another 'removal' option.

Maybe if you do have suggestions you could also hint at what I could leave out? I would like to stay with a Liliana theme though and I am definitly not cEDH concerned;)

Out: So I took out Spark Reaper as the draw was too slow. Swapped it for Dark Prophecy, which is proclducing much better value. Murderous Rider is out, reanimating isn't really working with that one and instant speed from Hero's Downfall is more flexible. Liliana's Reaver never really worked out. Diabolic Tutor is worse then final parting and I rather have more ramp. Torment of Hailfire is a more win card and has kind of a low floor. Having it early always felt bad. Having it in late game was mostly overkill. And finally Yawgmoth's Vile Offering was mostly for recurring Planeswalkers. Mostly it was using a lot of mana though and I rather use a big Command the Dreadhorde once or play something else (the next Liliana for example:))

In: I took some creatures out but wanted to up the ramp. I added Expedition Mapfoil, Wayfarer's Bauble and just another Swamp to smoothen my play hopefully. Else Dark Prophecy is bakc in as mentioned above and I took another try with Liliana's Triumph as it's usually a solid early game removal (late game I usually have Grave Pact). And finally I have added Coat of Arms again as another definite wincon when played right :)
