Zombie on the highlands deck mill-tribal, freshly build (not anymore ; it smells kind of rotten...)! I had a Grimgrin, Corpse-Born *oversized* laying around as well as a Cavern of Souls and a milling deck that fell into uselessness, so I tough ''hey, why not?''. Oh, plus a few zombies here and there ;). So when it started Grimgrin, Corpse-Born *oversized* was the leader until I got a The Scarab God and decided to try this eldritch looking mofo out.

The goal is not to win directly with milling, but to use the milled card to my advantage with cards like Memory Plunder, Rise of the Dark Realms, Cemetery Reaper and others, like our new lord and master... With the use of my opponents graveyard and more direct control cards, the undead army can grow and then strike down for the win. Since the fat Scarab is pretty sticky, a large zombie army both means incremental damage and scrying, and of course, a board presence.

*the fallowing section is mentioning interactions and combos related to a previous version of this deck, there will be * next to the statement relating to this

It is possible to win trough milling though, but you gotta be lucky. Turn 1 Sol Ring and Dimir Signet with 2 lands in your hand, fallowed by turn 2 Traumatize and turn 3 Nemesis of Reason :P -P.S. that's still true if I ever decide to put the Nemesis back in.*

Also note the Evil Twin ; he's here as a effective annoying commander (or any other creatures really) remover

Combos and interactions:

• Bloodchief Ascension + Mindcrank = insta win!... well not actually a insta win, you got to get your counters first ;)

• Gravecrawler + Grimgrin, Corpse-Born + Rooftop Storm = infinite counters! Add Phenax, God of Deception for infinite mill! *

• Diregraf Captain + Gravecrawler + Rooftop Storm = Infinite damage to target opponent. (How is it so , in your opinion? Does the captain uses the bones or death fumes of your zombies as weapons?) *

• Door of Destinies + Gravecrawler + Rooftop Storm = All the counters you want on your Brain-fiends! *

• Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth + Zombie Master = unblockable zombies! Add a Bone Dancer for easy and free creatures!

• Cover of Darkness + zombie inc.= scary fun time! Though not against a {B} deck...

• Gravespawn Sovereign + Intruder Alarm = take all creatures from all graveyard!! *

• Mindcrank + The Scarab God ; needs zombie, but makes the attrition even better and gives you eternalize potential!

The power of the swarm reside in their blizt strategy which is made easier by their zombie lords and dark wizard magics... In other words, this deck is better in 1v1 from what I tested until now.

Inspired by Corpse Needing a Grin? Try Grimgrin! and Grimgrin Tribal, thank you guys. *

Any comment, criticism and/or suggestion would be very nice, Thankee sai!
