This is my take on Joe Bernal's awesome BR Zombies list.
I think adding Rakdos Cackler is an overkill because there are already enough high-powered 1-drop creatures in this deck. I think that Vexing Devil, Gravecrawler, and
Diregraf Ghoul
are all more effective and versatile.
I also have fond that having a solid 2-drops are just as important in this deck as the 1-drops. I have
Rakdos Shred-Freak
because haste is incredibly valuable in a deck like this. I would 500% prefer Ash Zealot but I am afraid that I would not b able to have that second red mana fast enough.
Vampire Interloper
is a new card that I added recently, a 2-power flyer for 2 mana is great for this deck. it just soars over human decks and Selesnya decks and opponents are incredibly resistant to use removal on it. I have won a number games because of this card.
Thunderous Wrath, when miracled, is absolutely insane and almost guarantees a win.
-SIDEBOARDING-
Against Aggro decks:Add in the 4th Pillar of Flame from the sideboard, take out a shred-freak most likely.That's pretty much it, (unless they are a white aggro deck). This deck is faster than other aggro decks, so the Mainboard is sufficient.
Against White Decks:Board in 3 or 4 of the
Knight of Infamy
's depending on how "white" their deck is. Usually take out either the shred-freak's or the
Vampire Interloper
s
Against Midrange Decks:Add in the 2
Appetite for Brains
and possibly the extra
Brimstone Volley
. If their deck is fairly slow, add in 2 Underworld Connections
Against Control Decks:add in the
Appetite for Brains
and 2 or 3 Underworld Connections, take out the vampire interlopers and some Pillar of Flames.
If the deck has a lot of creature removal (Terminus, Supreme Verdict, etc) then take out 4 creatures ad add in the 4 burn spells from the side board.
