Depravity
Vile Rebirth exiles from the graveyard. so, if the deck is working right, I'm sure they will have milled at least 1 creature. It is mostly there to get rid of any pesky creatures that have 'while in the graveyard' effects.
Thanks for your feedback in any case. I will ponder on this a bit more.
Depravity
I like it, but I wonder if the 3 Vile Rebirth should be more kill spells, counter spells, or even Dimir Charm If the deck is working right, you'll have to exile your own creatures to get the 2/2 token.
Shadow Link's Zombie Deck
What's the point of Forbidden Orchard ? Unless i'm missing something, you cast everything in your deck with only black. Have you considered Vile Rebirth ? Great deck though. +1
Standard available options at the moment: Rakdos Charm Rest in Peace Tormod's Crypt Cremate Beckon Apparition Deathrite Shaman Purify the Grave Vile Rebirth
And if its that bad there are a few other slower less effective ways Crypt Creeper Angel of Serenity Curse of Oblivion Graveyard Shovel Thraben Heretic
And for a bit of overkill Worldfire .
First Deck
This deck is interesting, but it seems to be going in two different directions. I see some cards in there such as Knight of Infamy , Wind Drake , Vile Rebirth , and Sleep that are alright in a control deck, but work best in a fast tempo based agro-control type deck, while other cards like Archaeomancer , Fog Bank , Void Stalker , Rewind , and Elixir of Immortality work best in a slow control deck. Currently this deck could go either way. I would recommend cutting Cower in Fear as most of your opponents creatures are probably big enough to survive it. Also consider either increasing the number of instants and sorceries in the deck or removing the Augur of Bolas . In order to reliably get the extra card from his ability your deck needs to have atleast 20 or more instants and sorceries. Nothing will feels worse that missing on an ability like that. Have fun whichever route you take with this deck.
The Vale of Shadows.
Considered Vile Rebirth over Cremate in the SB? Both are solid cards, but the extra creature could potentially be more useful against a control deck
Mono-black ftw +1
Dark Ritual , Soulless One and Counterspell aren't legal in Modern, but just looking at that list I think that was it. So your cards are:
4x Diregraf Captain 1x Grimgrin, Corpse-Born 1x Grave Titan 2x Unbreathing Horde 2x Zombie Apocalypse 2x Nihil Spellbomb 2x Tribute to Hunger 4x Diregraf Ghoul 2x Vile Rebirth 4x Dimir Aqueduct (There's Watery Grave , Underground River , etc. as well)3x Vapor Snag 2x Victim of Night 2x Zombie Infestation 4x Disentomb 2x Skirsdag High Priest
