About This Deck

This is a first attempt to make a zombie tribal deck. the deck is built around Contamination to hopeful lock in the brains for a mighty feast! The goal is to make a lot of zombie tokens for Contamination to make even stax decks feel slowed down a bit but win fast because who wants to play in a game that lasts 2+ turns of doing nothing?! Afterall i want my opponents to die, not suffer! Suffering just spoils the meat :^)

Why i want to play a deck like this

For those who are wondering why ANYONE would want to play a deck like this let me ask you one question. Have you EVER played a game of magic and lost so bad you wanted to change to a more competitive deck??? That is all i'm doing with this deck, but not so competive that nobody wants to play it or its archenemy or anything, I'M NOT TRYING TO PLAY STAX OR ANYTHING although i do have a budget stax deck if needed.

Combos

Cards like Sword of the Paruns or Umbral Mantle + Magus of the Coffers is infinite mana and can be used with Death Denied to get all of our zombies. Withered Wretch to exile all grave yards. Army of the Damned for infinite tokens. Dread Summons for some mill. Drana, Kalastria Bloodchief to board wipe the board and swing for lethal. Dregs of Sorrow to board wipe. if you run Maga, Traitor to Mortals a one shot commander that kills one person on entry. Pestilence to ping everyone dead if you have more hp or use the mana and the sword on Champion of Stray Souls to chain enter the battlefield effects.

Added the cards Grave Titan Exsanguinate Razaketh, the Foulblooded Vampiric Tutor Demonic Tutor

Took out the cards Maggot Carrier putrid imp Never / Return Withered Wretch Entomb

Thanks achilles777 for the suggestions! i would have loved to play Sheoldred, Whispering One but i still dont have any tutors and Razaketh, the Foulblooded made me see that so double thanks!!

6/4/2019

Added Triskelion so side broad because of the Mike and Trike combo, essentially you play Mikaeus, the Unhallowed + Triskelion and ping players infinitely using the last ping on the trike, killing the creature and triggering Mikaeus, the Unhallowed's undying making Triskelion come back with 4 +1/+1 counters and not 3 since it's enter the battlefield effects. broken fun and requiered if i play Contamination personally because playing vs a staxy card like that is no fun, trust me i play staxdeck:Lavinia Requires you to slow down RIGHT NOW!

Anyone who has suggestions is free to express them, i am all up for upgrading this deck with any cards that can help me out!
