Totally forgot to mention it.... As soon as I saw your deck, "Another Tribal Zombie deck", (which are usually Black, or Black/Blue) I saw the Green addition to yours and thought about "Mana-Ramping the Zombies"... lack of mana is and always has been my probs with the zombies... I'm really not sure which way to go as of yet (but I'm thinking about it)...

and Altar's Reap + Gravecrawler work well together...... forgot that one also.

Grimgrin, Corpse-Born might be fun in here.... He is another free "Sac-ability" outlet for you. The connection between Prized Amalgam + Gravecrawler could use as many "Sac-abilities" handy to get Crawler in there (the graveyard) almost as soon as Prized enters the Graveyard. Viscera Seer is there I know and I like him there too, but if you want that 1st card while scry'ing, the 2nd scry becomes moot where Grim get's much bigger for every "sac" "available" to you. Grim is a good un-tapping defender too.

The Mass Swarm of Zombie Tokens are nice, i'm sure, but, Do you need 4x Diregraf Colossus? how often do you have zombies in graveyard? ZOMBIES LEAVE GRAVEYARD FAST with a Grave+Prized combo for 1 CMC, or Relentless going to your hand for 1 CMC, and your Titan and Kalitas are not zombies and make Tokens to boot.....grave is empty isn't it???

Another thought with your Scry'ing.... sure there is a better card out there but, you need some draws. Altar's Reap + Gravecrawler and 2x draw. With rooftop down and a draw of 2 Zombies from playing Alter's Reap they become free zombies??? Alter's would also become the ONLY way for you to return your non-Zombies Grave Titan Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet. (I think?)

gotta say him Mikaeus, the Unhallowed always good with zombies.

Back to the "Sac-ability" once more, Geralf's Messenger or an Undying Evil for any of those Sac'ed Zombies?

I Like him, but not a zombie, let Kalitas go... don't hate on me. FULL TRIBAL is so close man, lol.

Final card. My Friends always hated my Zombie decks....... Levitation, my Zombie Tokens flew too. lol (sideboard?)

i'll try that for now. good luck.
