I have pretty good zombie deck. In the the new set it is useless. All the humans and Angela are to OP. this sucks guess its time to make a new deck if I want to win any games.

Not yet, my fellow Necrosage!! I love my zombie decks just like the next guy, but dont just give up hope!! Go hunting for some old/new cards with Pro W or G(or whatever)! All you need to do is make you deck a little more defensive then offensive. And thus i leave you with these words:
"The best offense is a good defense."

{Zombie Apocalypse}
{Angel of Glory Rise} the EXACT HARD counter for apocolypse. That card is the reason i gave up my zombie deck. My play group carries at least 1 for me.

Plus the new event deck is gonna have {gravecrawler}s and messengers in it. So value for those cards are gonna drop.

I know it seems to overpowered. I know the flavor behind it but come on. My deck went from pretty good to flat out useless.

You could say that the Apocalypse is an exact hard counter to THEIR {Angel of Glory Rise}, hmm?  😌

Not for mine. My deck is to get {Call to the Kindred} out then throw out {Headless Skaab} and {Relentless Skaabs} out for free and many others. Glory Rise. All mine are gone. Exile > Graveyard. The angel even cost less so even if they are having a bit of mana problems they still can play it. Shuts down {Mikaues, the Unhallowed} and {Diregraf Captain}.

BlackJester

Touché!  I forgot about the exile bit.

If you have blue in your zombie deck, make room for counter spells vs angel decks. Should help slow down the game a bit and get rid of game changing cards like the glory's rise, etc

Dude. Nobody is gonna play those cards, they're not very good. Zombies isn't that ubiquitous enough for people to sideboard big expensive things against them.

What he said. No one will SB 1 card like that. If they do big deal. Run blue or don't dump all of your zombies, keep some in hand if you can.

1 card does not kill a deck (except nihil spellbomb versus self mill deck :/ )
