Competitive zombie commander deck.

Synergies: Cabal Coffers + Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth in a deck that isn't already all swamps because of non-basics. The swampwalk potential is also nice with Zombie Master .

Draw Engine = Dark Prophecy + Gravecrawler + Skullclamp

OTK all opponents = Gravecrawler + Phyrexian Altar + Vengeful Dead OR OTK all opponents = Diregraf Captain + Gravecrawler + Phyrexian Altar

Infinite draw/mana = Rooftop Storm + Phyrexian Altar + Gravecrawler + Skullclamp

Recurrable Board Wipe - Gravecrawler + Noxious Ghoul + Phyrexian Altar

Stealing their thunder = Dictate of Erebos + Grave Betrayal + Grave Pact

Reasons on cutting cards from the Main Board: I only kept the strong creatures that either did something when they died or came into play that affected all opponents so for example Black Cat did not make the cut. I also cut cards that worked against me such as Death Pits of Rath . I also removed cards that had duplicate effects, there is a such thing as too much recursion/regeneration. I also kept all the best cards that make 2/2 Zombie tokens which can then be abused in so many ways. All non Zombies got cut basically with exceptions such as Erebos, God of the Dead, Kathari Remnant , and Phyrexian Metamorph for obvious reasons, even the Changeling cards were just not necessary. I tried to keep the cost of creatures low cost because you cannot rely Rooftop Storm, so nothing outrageous expensive was looked at. That could change if I felt like including 1 heavy hitter down the road. So Mikaeus, the Unhallowed but may make a return after a couple commander nights. I removed the double blue counterspells and board wipes because I am shying away from control. I generally only kept the instants/sorceries that had flashback or a powerful effect. The equipment Lashwrithe and Nightmare Lash got cut because it is not mono black. Even with Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth it was win-more.
