Fairly standard Unburial Rites build with AVR cards I picked up from prerelease thrown in. Kept it simply BW because I always felt expanding past that pushed the mana base too hard given what's available in standard.

Basic Plan was taken from griselbrand-combo-by-brandon-nelson-jacob-van-lu-1 to stall with Tokens and Liliana (with her and Zombie Infestation also feeding the graveyard) until Griselbrand hits the graveyard and you hit his card draw engine with Unburial Rites or Necrotic Ooze.

At that point it's keeping your life total full with Timely Reinforcements to draw mass cards. If one of the big guys is unable to finish off your opponent, simply keep drawing cards to feed Zombie Infestation and swarm them.

On some card choices - Dismember vs other spot removal is solely so I can have the option to use phyrexian mana to lower my life total and get more out of timely reinforcements. Plus I wanted an excuse to throw in 2 of my FNM versions.

Barter in Blood was easier on the mana then DoJ, and it potentially frees up one of my creatures after the fact to keep the offense up.

Taking out other colors forced me to find a decent card drawing engine when I was missing Unburial Rites or one of the fatties, and Zombie Infestation/Altar's Reap was the most efficient method I could find sticking solely within those colors. Altar's Reap feeding off Lingering Souls, Timely Reinforcements, or Grave Titan tokens is an extra bonus on top of that.

Sideboard is mostly what I had lying around from other decks, shouldnt be taken at face value.
