Gravecrawler Beatdown

Modern* Aggro UB (Dimir) Zombie

Sideboard


This is the zombie deck that I'm currently running in Standard FNM. I've had a little bit of help building it to where it's at, and would appreciate any helpful comments. It's at a pretty decent place right now, and got me highest individual game win percentage (69%) last time I ran it, but there is always room for improvement.

The basic idea is to move fast with Gravecrawler, Diregraf Ghoul , and Black Cat (for flavor), and then to start hitting hard by dropping Diregraf Captain and Geralf's Messenger, finishing with either a Grimgrin, Corpse-Born or a Mikaeus, the Unhallowed.

I've had it recommended to me that I side more Sever the Bloodline and that I include one more Grimgrin in the mainboard. Additionally, I'm not sure how I feel about the Smallpox, so any advice concerning them is definitely welcome.

Comments and upvotes welcome. Thanks!

It's been a while since I first uploaded this deck, and I've uploaded it based on things I've noticed and on advice I've been given. Firstly, I've cut down Grimgrin and Mikaeus to 1 ofs, with sideboads of each in case I need extra pro-human or sacricfice. Secondly, I've managed to replace my Islands with duo lands. The black cats have finally been replaced with three skirsdag high priests and a mortarpod, while two geth's verdicts and a sword of feast and famine have come in to replace the lost big guys and one of my black suns. With the stuff coming up in Avacyn restored, I'm probably going to be looking at getting two more black suns and running one mainboard, three sideboard, to deal with hexproof stuff.

Any comments are welcome!
