This is not my first EDH deck. However, I wanted this one in particular to be special, since it features a creature type that I affectionate a lot: Zombie.

I started to play Magic during the Innistrad block and I felt in love with its flavor. One the first deck I've built back then was a UB mill deck featuring Undead Alchemist. I really liked to spawn a big army of zombie tokens~

Since the day I was introduced to the EDH format, I always wanted to create a deck that emulated the same pleasure to crush my enemies with a horde of undead creatures. I accumulated many cards appropriate for this idea, but never got the chance to get my hand on a decent commander for that purpose...

Until the day that I opened Marchesa, the Black Rose in a Conspiracy booster pack. I saw the potential of her two unique abilities and decided to finally build my zombie tribal deck around this deadly lady.

The idea here is to play with creatures (mostly zombies) who either:

- Have an ETB/LTB effect.- Are a sac outlet with interesting abilities.- Uses +1/+1 counters.

Also, anything that is relevant in any tribal deck is welcomed.

A really BIG thank you for ClockworkSwordfish who helped to shape this deck into something coherent! Go check his decks: They're awesome~

Thanks in advance for any helpful comments!
