not sure if you mean to have 8 Adaptive Automaton . anyway maybe try some of the zombie lords in m12 like Cemetery Reaper . also a lot of the skaabs in the set are really really aggro and can bring the beat down. Stitched Drake is great. he flies and he's a fairly good beat-stick.

Yeah, I noticed the 8 automatons, changed that back to 4 as soon as I noticed it, I thought about adding the stitched drake but I wasn't really sure what to remove to make room

personally i would drop the Abattoir Ghoul s. zombies mean overwhelming beatdown to me. and when im beating someone down i dont really care much if some one gets a hit on me. or maybe now that you have the Cemetery Reaper as a lord you could drop the Adaptive Automaton . basically zombies, in my mind, are supposed to be cheap and easy to cast so you end up with a horde of them. i would want to run as many cheap easy creatures, like Diregraf Ghoul and Stitched Drake as possible. then you have a little draw power from cards like card:Altar's Reap that help you keep bodies on the field. card:Altar's Reap in a zombie token deck is 2 cards for 1B which is pretty great.

That mostly makes sense, I ended up removing 2 lands in order to get the card:Altar's Reap in there, but I think drawing cards will even it out. I think though that keeping both the Adaptive Automaton and the Cemetery Reaper is good in order to further buff the tokens, allowing for a possible, though very unlikely, 10/10 zombie tokens, most likely 6/6 or 5/5 at best though. I'm also somewhat skeptical of the Skaab Ruinator though, they are powerful but it seems like a rather large sacrifice considering I can bring back alot of my Zombies from the graveyard.

Actually, thinking about it another way Skaab Ruinator makes Ghoulraiser more reliable, i'm not really sure.

A friend of mine kindly told me of Unbreathing Horde being invincible as long as I have an Adaptive Automaton or Cemetery Reaper on the field so I replaced Abattoir Ghoul to add some.

Been a tad mana dry, dropped card:Altar's Reap, added 2 Island

Just want to point out that I would appreciate criticism, this is more or less my first somewhat proper deck and I haven't had many chances to test it in order to work out the kinks.
