Gisa turns large creatures into zombies, with a mild zombie support theme. It was adapted from the C14 precon. My earlier Drana, Kalastria Bloodchief deck served me well but always felt like it relied heavily on god draws. Gisa aims to focus on a strategy that's much easier to support in mono black, going wide with zombies and sac outlets.

There's still plenty of chaff to cut. Looking to swap in creatures, preferably lower CMC (3 or less) with at least 3-4 power.
