Is there any room for Fleshbag Marauder?

Yes, there should be... It is also in my stack of card I got for the deck and want to try and include... 200 card commander deck anyone?! Lol

WE MADE IT TO #1!!! I can't believe how much support I have received from everyone! Every comment and upvote brings a smile to my face, thank you all again. This is just the beginning, let become the best zombie deck on Tappedout! It is about 120 votes!

If you need a budget Damnation, Bontu's Last Reckoning might be a good swap.

I see you been putting in and taking out Mindcrank, if you need more ideas of why to put it in, it combos amazing with both The Scarab God and Duskmantle Guildmage first ability. You could swap Memory Erosion.

i dont think Crypt Ghast is legal in this deck because the extort cost is hybrid it makes its colour identity black and white

I'm pretty sure its still legal. Colors in the reminder text don't apply to rules text

Crypt Ghast is 100% legal

I'd highly recommend looking into Phyrexian Delver, or Corpse Connoisseur. If you're going heavy on mill, try Undead Alchemist.

Odysseus_97: That is a great suggestion for a budget deck. I was also thinking about Decree of Pain. I am working on a budget section for the Primer. Also, I am putting Mindcrank in for Memory Erosion, like you said.

As discussed, Crypt Ghast is legal. It is a very common mistake though. I was actually just talking about that rule with a co-worker.

mehtagame: Those zombies are all very interesting, and some I already have to try out, but I will look into getting the rest. Thank you for the suggestions and the +1!!!

Shouldn't it be God of the Rising MOON if it's "butts up?";)

ONLY CRAP, You just made my day!!! lol. I was just taking the name from the lore, but God of the Rising MOON wins hands down! Is it ok if I steal that???

Please do!

DONE! Update the Name and the Intro. You are the best lol. I feel stupid for not thinking of this parallel! Thank you for the support and the vote! (Any thoughts on the deck itself?)

I don't play zombies enough to really know what I'm talking about when it comes to them. The only questionable choice I see is Chromatic Lantern. Do you really need the fixing that bad in a 2 color deck? I think something else deserves its slot. If you need a Lantern in your two color deck, something is wrong with your mana base. Also has 34 lands been enough for you. I run a minimum of 36, preferably 38.

I think it might be a good addition to the deck to have interesting targets for the scarab god to bring back. For example, Blighted Agent or even Invisible Stalker would be really good as 4/4's. I did a little of that in my deck, which by the way looks pretty similar to yours. Check it out if you want to compare: 666 Hordes Of The Dead: The Scarab God Primer.

He is called "God of the rising sun" because he is partly a scarab and the scarab god of old egypt (Khepri) is the god of the rising sun. Actually it was believed he created the sun every morning and devoured it every evening.

Hi, Billy Mays here. Are you tired of not having enough mill? I've got the solution for your milling needs look no further than Mesmeric Orb! She does some real work for only one easy payment of $10.39

Deathstroke2791: You are likely right about the lantern and my land base. I have only played the deck a four times so far, and it is flowing really well, so we will see. I kind of count rocks as lands in the deck, so we can say we are running 37 lands if you want. Lantern is mainly so good because it insures I always have enough blue to use the commanders ability over and over. There is a lot of support for black mana, but not for the blue.

kellen.rice: dude, that is a really cool idea! Idk if there will be room to fit in creatures in this deck for the soul purpose of eternalizing them, but i think it is a sound strategy! I focus more on milling my opponents for their creatures I'm my build. I will add that idea to the 'alternate build option' part of the Primer, when that is done.

Schlangenbob: Yes sir, I am am aware of the lore, it is actually explained in my Introduction and the Lore section of the description. The humor is suppose to be that The Scarab God's head looks like a beetle butt wiggling in the air, so instead of Rising 'Sun' I call him Rising 'Moon'. Lame joke, I know, but I still find it hilarious, lol.

Flagellum: I think the orb would be good if I was going for a mill kill, but I just want creatures to make into zombie. If I need more mill, that is definitely an option though, thank you!

Thank you all so much for the comments and upvote! I REALLY does mean a lot!

I would swap out Attrition for Deathmark Prelate. It is easier to recur and is not color exclusionary. Phyrexian Delver is a great include, as is Grimgrin, Corpse-Born

I could see an argument for Chromatic Lantern because of Havengul Lich's ability. You need to be able to cast the creature you target (applies to opponent's graveyards too).

Instead of Attrition or Deathmark Prelate, I'd suggest Stronghold Assassin for Zombie-flavour reasons.

Playtesting your deck I found the land count to be a bit too low, especially for your curve/average CMC. Try going up to 38? I'd also try to limit the number of non-basics, only leaving in the essentials.

Hey, cool primer! Would appreciate if you can take a look at mine whenever you're free! +1

VexenX, you were talking about a 200 card EDH deck check out mine.I Have 200 Cards in my EDH Deck!
