Not my usual level of quality, but it's hard to find new stuff in standard.

Plus, I felt I owed you guys something since its been awhile.

For synergy {endless ranks of the undead}
and when you got more then 10 zombies (or your done with milling *Gasp*) just {silent departure} the {undead alchemist} for some mass dps.

I think it is actually quite good. Simple, easy to drop, easy to fit in if not together, could be in lots of actual competitive decks

You {Vapor Snag} or {Tragic Slip} it. Why would you willingly walk it into death?

I'm trying to show some love to the budget minded. 💰Swords are OP enough.  Comboing with them borders on redundant.

(I don't think anyone got the connection between the title "Driller" and Michael Jackson's "Thriller".  Too subtle?)

Not at first, no, actually that's pretty funny. I just thought of what "trepanation" actually is, and made a connection there

Would double strike activate the ability of the sword twice?

If both hits connect with the player, yes.  But the {Trepanation Blade} only triggers once, when you declare attackers.
