I want to build a Zombie deck for competitive play but im not sure what will mesh together best color ways, black + ?

Any help/comments would be awesome.

Considering Innistrad was U/B zombies, I would go with either Mono Black Zombies, U/B Zombies, or use some non-zombie cards and go for a R/B.

Jund zombies has had success, especially with Golgari Green zombies like Dreg Mangler and Lotleth Troll

Woops! Forgot about the G/B zombies. Don't know why I did that because my best friend runs a Golgari deck with plenty of zombies in it.

Trestle Troll is a good blocker since it helps deal with fliers who would normally just go right past your zombies.

R/B and R/G are probably the most competititve. Here are my RB: Zombies with Flamethrowers! (FNM Champ) and Jund: deck:jund-zombie-ridiculousness if you want to take a look.

Oops I meant R/B and B/G. Jund is fun, but I don't think it is consistent. So I switched to RB and went undefeated.

I would run R/B Zombies. Since they are running that, you should at least use a few card:Geralf's Messenger, and at least a playset of both Gravecrawler and Blood Artist . Maybe some Falkenrath Aristocrat to protect against Supreme Verdict
