Sidisi's Zombies, talk about a "Thriller"

Commander / EDH* BUG (Sultai)

SteelAgitator


This is my personal favorite EDH deck as well as the first EDH deck I have ever made. I am open to all suggestions, I won't be offended if you disagree with me as long as you aren't rude, if anything I would want you to disagree with my, so I can keep improving my deck and have other sets of eyes look at my deck to see some combos or synergies that I may have missed. This is the first time I have updated it in the past 2 years, so if you see something that came out in the past 2 years that would be good for me, let me know!

Some of my Favorite combos include the key card to my deck Gravecrawler. If I have my commander out, I can get some useful mill out of him, and get some 2/2 zombie tokens, using Altar of Dementia. If I have Undead Alchemist on the field with that, its a potential win-con. When I mill my foes, I get zombie tokens, and then I get more tokens by sacrificing those tokens with the Altar. If I have Rooftop Storm on the board, then Gravecrawler is a wincon, as long as I have the Altar of Dementia. If I don't, I could use Grimgrin, Corpse-Born/Carrion Feeder alongside Diregraf Captain. Grimgrin and Carrion Feeder both work extremely well with Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord too, by making them infinitely large with gravecrawler and rooftop storm, and then sacrificing it to instantly kill all the other players. My ideal earlygame play is to get Buried Alive off on turn two or three. The cards I usually grab with that are Gravecrawler, Wonder, and Golgari Thug. If I don't get it until lategame, and I already have Gravecrawler, Wonder, and Golgari Thug in my grave, then I might put something bigger in, like Havengul Lich, Grimgrin, Corpse-Born, Sidisi, Undead Vizier, Sheoldred, Whispering One, Mikaeus, the Unhallowed or Grave Titan. That way I can bring them back with a Victimize. With Greenwarden of Murasa and Eternal Witness I like to grab some of my key artifacts, that are sac outlets, such as Phyrexian Altar, Altar of Dementia, and Skullclamp. If not those, then some other useful combo cards that are not creatures (because I have a lot more ways to recur my creatures than I do my artifacts and enchantments), like Victimize, Path of Discovery, Parallel Lives, or Rooftop Storm. Either that or one of my Liliana's.

I am running Dimir House Guard so that he can transmute into one of my key CMC 4 cards, most notably, Path of Discovery. Path of Discovery is absolutely bonkers if I have my commander out, especially if I can cast Army of the Damned and get 13 explore triggers. Other good targets for Dimir House Guard include Grave Pact because it helps to clear my opponent's boards, Parallel Lives or Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet for extra Tokens, and World Shaper or Oracle of Mul Daya for help with lands. These cards are much more key to my deck than some of the other possible 4 drops, but feel free to use your discretion if you think you will need something else.

If you have any questions, feel free to let me know!!!
