After all the support for the previous game of thrones inspired deck. Why not the white walkers? Ice zombies, re-animating the dead sounds to me like this will be a fantastic idea. Considering {grimgrinn, corpse-born} for the commander. Any ideas?
I'm not sure why, but Im seeing a White Walers deck as more so Orzhov than Dimir ... I'm not sure why but if it were me, I'd be going in that direction.
If I were to do it I think grixis with maybe {Sedris, the Traitor King} as general. He gives the whole they keep coming back thing a whole new level.

Much better than grimgrinn. Also like the idea of splashing red into the deck. My previous zombie deck focused mainly on milling and {undead alchemist} might splash a little of this strategy into this one as well. But I'll mainly be focusing on trying to utilize {grave betrayl} and similar cards. Kill off the opposition and bring them into my ranks, true white walker style :)

i have a deck that make the best use of grave betrayal iv ever seen i use {Teysa, Envoy of Ghosts} as the commander and i use {Grave Pact} and {Butcher of Malakir} and {Grave Betrayal} just let 1 attacker hit u so u can get a token then block a bigger creature to kill the token and wen the token dies ur opponets have to sacrifice 2 creatures and u gain control of them from grave betrayal
I still think {Sedris, the Traitor King} is the best way to do a white walker deck. Plus y'all guys are forgetting {Call to the Grave} and {Grave Betrayal} work so well together in a zombie theme deck. Plus you could put in {Rotlung Reanimator} in as well...which is a good thing. Then red gives you {Chaosphere} and {Stranglehold} which allow zombies to block fliers and stop combo decks.

This seems to be the way I think it should run. I run a {teysa ghost envoy} commander which I take a Zur strategy and load her with as much boost as I can and go for the throat. Thanks for all ideas and will post a draft asap
Might I ask what white walkers is?
