I'd suggest more zombies and less cards that kill your own, besides {gravecrawler} which may not trigger as much as you need it to with the low amount of zombies you already have, you don't have anything that will bring them back like {gravedigger}, {ghoulraiser}, {ghoulcaller's chant}, {gravepurge} seems like it could have potential. {call to the grave} is a really decent card for zombies, only takes out opponents creatures. Unless they're playing zombies in which case you can side it out for something like dismember. You haven't put in any zombies with power greater than 2 let alone 4 like {geralf's mindcrusher}, {relentless skaabs}, and {stitched drake} for flying which you would be screwed by otherwise without enough removal. I honestly wouldn't play counters in this kind of deck because there's so many spells that can benefit zombies like {rooftop storm} combod with all of the previous zombies I've listed basically gets you an army of zombies if you have 2 or 3 gravedigger/ghoulraiser in the graveyard with a bunch of your other ones, you can basically rez them all for free.

Takes a deep breath. End rant.

I would run {Skinrender} in place of twin.
I didn't even think of that, nice addition.
He is really good =P

Not as good as {Rotting Fensnake}!   ;D

No rotting fensnake can be taken out by a gutshot to the face but skinrender murders as soon as it comes in. Cards bring it back and it turns into early game control ecspecially against vamps and spirits

Rooftop storm is so badd :(
It makes it so that those 3 drops and two drops cost six in total to play. You may save a few drops of mana, assuming you haven't played anything for the entire game. And even so, you are spending a card, which may as well be another good zombie.

{Rooftop Storm} is too pricy (mana-wise) for competitive play. Great for combos and casual shenanegans, but I wouldn't try it to win 1v1.

Agreed!
Now, if you could survive long enough to hit a {Graveclalwer} + {Rooftop Storm} + {Grimgrin, Corpse-born} combo, you might have something.

I've seen elesh norn hard cast, cards like that can be played late game I just don't see why a six cost enchant can't be played, people are looking into curse decks, playing titans and other huge 8 cost creatures in green decks for example

BlackJester

The thing is, those bombs should end the game when they hit. By the time you hit your Storm, you won't have much left in hand so you're relying on top decking. By then you could cast any zombie you'd draw.
The point is, outside of a combo, the storm doesn't win you the game. It just makes all of your zombies, that you could afford to play by then any way, free.

But if you have a 5 mana zombie but need to make sure it plays, than haveing mana to counter is good so roof top storm is still good, but really late when you just need to make sure u can counter.
