I used to have a zombie flavor  {Thraximundar} Edh deck that wasn't to good and because I had so may edh decks I took it apart. Recently I've taken apart a lot of my decks and saw my alter thrax sitting in my binder and decided to resurrect it in a deck that works better around him (hopefully). Control the board with different spells, tutor up threats, play big creatures etc etc. my fav combo is  {Rooftop Storm} In this deck for the awesome combo of it and thrax.

True but paying 0, 2, 4, 6 etc colorless is better then 7, 9 etc.

Image is there to try and keep the curve a bit lower and if they cast removal on it then I will probably die in this deck because I don't have hexproof or indestructible effects.

I do like the twin but I'm trying to think of what to drop if I do. The other clones are kinda better then it imo

It's not just removal - any ability ({Icy Manipulator}, any equip effect, etc).

How?  The casting costs are similar and Evil Twin kills other copies.

Evil twin gets rid of any of the opponents threats especially commanders. But I mean whatever is your preference
