Shia Labeouf's Cloning Machine (Help)

Modern Deck Help forum

Posted on July 5, 2015, 10:49 p.m. by Final_Origins

My newly made Zombie deck, called Shia Labeouf's Homies, is supposed to be a Midrange / Aggro zombie creating mill. I am trying to harness the ability of Necromancer's Stockpile of discarding and drawing more creatures. The gameplay is play the cheap zombies in the early game. Then you play Necromancer's Stockpile or Endless Ranks of the Dead and start duping zombies until win. If you are against a lifegain deck then you keep throwing creatures in the graveyard until you get Corpseweft, then you make a gigantic 20/20 zombie and swing like no tomorrow.

I am looking to make this a competitive deck, so any suggestions are welcomed!! Shia Labeouf's Homies

Needs more cannibalism. I recommend Village Cannibals

I'd rather not have jokes about it. I don't know what else to call it.

Fine. Cemetery Reaper instead of Walking Corpse.

I would suggest replacing Hunted Ghoul with either Undead Warchief or Lord of the Undead if you can afford it. For Warchief, The +2 power is very relevant as it makes your Zombie tokens able to take down very common four toughness blockers like Brimaz, King of Oreskos, and cheapens your zombie spells though that's not the relevant ability. Lord however, lets you recur your Zombies, and thus gives you more fuel to discard to Stockpile and recur fallen zombies. Both have merits and extra lords are always welcome.

Considering how your curve tops out at 4 mana via Endless Ranks of the Dead, 26 lands is too many. I would cut 2-3 of them with 23 or 24 seeming like a good amount.

Kingofsouls thank you for the awesome suggestions! I may be using Undead Warchief but many of my most important cards use 4 mana on turn 4, which is a bummer. And I am not going to be using Lord of the Undead because I do not want to regain my zombies from the graveyard that I can't get without their own abilities. I am going to be using late game Corpseweft to create a giant 20/20 beater and smash everyone.
