Grow, envelop, destroy everything that resists: that's what I hope Spreading Death will do. The core of this deck is death spells to keep the battlefield clear until some nasty monsters can make their appearance. I added some elves for a little low cost versatility, graveyard recycling for some much needed longevity, and zombies/tokens to give extra beat down, but whether that helps or not remains to be seen.

Is this deck a walking killing-machine or just a lifeless corpse? I leave that up to you.

IMPORTANT NOTE Me and my friends play with the mana dump rule in effect. I know it's considered noobish but makes for some truly epic battles. I'll eventually retool this into a more effective, standard acceptable deck based on feedback.

Combos:

-Spiritmonger / Glissa, the Traitor + Lure= Goosebumps. I love this combination! The ability to wipe the entire board of enemy creatures or build up a monster to ridiculous levels while your opponent watches helplessly is one of my favorite parts of this deck.

-Parallel Lives & Dual Nature: Producing 3 copies of every creature that you play is pretty sweet. And while your opponent does get the same benefit from DN, there're plenty of options to take care of the originals.

-Midnight Ritual & Essence of the Wild: Turn the creatures in your graveyard into an army of 6/6 monsters for fairly cheap. Not bad at all.

-Heartless Summoning & Death Pit Offering: All the benefits of summoning without the loss of strength.
