This is a first draft of my zombie event deck. Any ideas? The swamps are 2/2 zombies, the islands 5/5.
Losing life will be replaced by milling two after putting the top 2 cards on the field. Gaining life will put zombies from the grave on the bottom of the deck, or in play, not sure what would be best.

And since there is no hand, the zombies of {ghoulcallers chant} will go to the b/f.

I really like gaining life putting cards on the bottom. I'm assuming you've seen Zombie Horde decks?

I have seen the thread and deck from here, and I got the Theros Minotaur horde. What I've seen here, it could maybe get meaner with heavier reincarnation like {zombie apocalypse} or would that go over the top?

It's pretty stand at actually. Nasty, but acceptable.

Tossing one in at expense of a 5/5 token.
The ratio tokens vs nontokens is a bit weird for this kinda deck, but if it is too slow,, some specials can go.

{Endless Ranks of the Dead}
That's a nice and nasty one. Since it's an enchantment it won't be removed that easily as well...

Removed 2 {zombie brutes} for 2 of these

I like running things like {Small Pox} but only having them affect the players not the horde. {Army of the Damned} is very good as well especially if you allow flashback.

Kaylesh

For now I'll keep this list. Keep shooting though, I might get to do other variations of the same theme. Make a faster one with more tokens and token generate, but without the reincarnation and life gain, perhaps a skeleton force, or even something brainyer. Dragoncalypse could be a theme now with DTK, just how to keep the power level controllable....
