Fiend Artisan is green
I think Sidisi, Undead Vizier is awful unless you use a lot of reanimate effects, it's just so expensive to tutor. Geth, Lord of the Vault is crazy strong, but he's a totally different deck most of the time. I'd dump Liliana's Steward too. You and one other player go down a card, putting the rest of the table ahead of you by one card, but they also get to choose, so you're never going to get the card you want out of their hand.
Hobbling Zombie and other cards like it, like Putrid Goblin are excellent at keeping attacks away from you while you build up your board. and the pseudo revival effects let you abuse a lot of other zombie mechanics. Butcher Ghoul, and Geralf's Messenger or Doomed Dissenter are ok too. i wouldnt use Sightless Ghoul though. They are all better than Reassembling Skeleton though. Keep Relentless Dead. Im not sure if they make the cut, but they arent scary, but that means they are good at keeping a target off your back til youre readyfor one.
Magus of the Bridge is great for a non-zombie. Probably use it over Tainted Adversary, i feel like that one just costs way too much before its good. Dreadhorde Invasion is incredibly good, as is Mikaeus, the Unhallowed. i'd put those in for sure.Tormod, the Desecrator is still really good. Zombie Trailblazer is devastating to the person sitting to your left in particular or anyone playing five colors/ not black. When you REALLY need someone to not cast a spell. make all their lands swamps during the upkeep. almost every board wipe is a sorcery.
I think you might want to dump Thought Vessel for Mind Stone or even Blood Pet. In many cases discarding is beneficial to zombies. If you want to keep infinite hand size, Zombie Infestation and discard at will cards are pretty helpful.
I think Noxious Ghoul is the single best zombie card in the game, in this deck it basically says, tap your commander, wipe everyone else's boards. Use it.
Sutured Ghoul is runner up. If you include it and other high power zombies like Rotting Regisaur you can put him out as a 20+/xx easily, and then get 2/2s. HE doesnt play nice with mass reanimate, but he's an alternate win condition on his own. also its a great tool since youre probably gonna sac the dino and Phyrexian Soulgorger pretty quickly. If you sacrifice him on the end step before your turn i think you will almost always have a game ending horde.
Gray Merchant of Asphodel is utterly stupid. The absolute best reanimate target you could hope for. and since your card draw is gonna cost a ton of life, hes always going to be valuable. Whip of Erebos is probably the only other reasonable lifegain choice.That one makes aggressive attacking suddenly super safe
Jadar, Ghoulcaller of Nephalia is really cheap at making zombies if you dont have any other sources of decayed zombs. they cant block, but you get so many death triggers
Graveborn Muse is great card draw.
Hatred is usually better than Endless Scream
I think Gempalm Polluter is fantastic. its card draw, puts a big zombie into your graveyard, and hurts a player if things are going well.
I don't think Endless Ranks of the Dead is that great, but it certainly is cool. Wand of Orcus is really cool too. I'm not sure if its good though.
Board wipes will shut you down as you have things right now. Crowded Crypt and Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet, that way, even if there's a board wipe you still have a whole army of zombs to multiply even after everything is dead. Rise of the Dread Marn is another fantastic option that you can abuse if you run things like Carrion Feeder too. Run Carrion Feeder, period. It lets you loop gravecrawler and saves yourself from control magic and exile spells.
Consider Toxic Deluge and STRONGLY CONSIDER Nevinyrral's Disk. Single target removal like tragic slip is ok because you can choose when things die, but other cards like Malicious Affliction are going to miss a lot of key targets. And you absolutely need to have a way to clear artifacts and especially enchantments.
Dark Salvation is pretty cool. not sure if it is good enough, but i'd use it rather than some of your spot removal.
Liliana, Dreadhorde General is really absurdly strong if you can get it out, and even if it dies the next turn you can draw a bunch off of it. Liliana, Heretical Healer  Flip you already know is great.
If you diversify your black lands, Field of the Dead is the best land. its silly how good it is. I'll start you off with the autoinclude Unholy Grotto. Malakir Rebirth  Flip is too.
I'll see what you make and see if i find anything else. later

@thefireoflurve good call on the Field of the Dead! My old Multani, Yavimaya's Avatar, which was Nissa tribal, into this. I had a lot of fetches and non-basics. I can put it into something else thanks to your recommendation.

This looks like a fantastic beginner deck! Reminiscent of my buddy's mono-green deck back when we played Magic circa 2011. Glad to see some things never change :)
One thing I might recommend cutting is Field of the Dead, since you don't have a lot of land with different names. I guess you could add Command Tower and Snow-Covered Forest for an easy +2.
Elvish Reclaimer or Ulvenwald Hydra could also help. Those cards are good anyway, but I'd err towards not adding too many more - don't want to build around a card that's in the 99.

So I am looking for something different to play, ran across this. I read your deck strategy and win cons, and the first thing i wondered is why isn't there any utility lands in here to help. Volrath's Stronghold was the first thing to come to mind, Field of the Dead seems like a easy fit as well. Tokens for nothing seems like a win win. Kelsien, the Plague seems like an auto include in this late game he would be a huge creature for low mana cost.
Thanks for posting this I will have some fun with it still think it need some mana acceleration as well.
cheers

Azusa, Lost but Seeking Cthulu [Primer]
2 months ago
First of all, welcome to the Azusa TappedOut community. :) We’re a small, but mighty bunch.
I see that Profet93 has already beaten me to the comments section! I would wholeheartedly back up everything he already suggested. You have a really cool build here - very heavy on the big Eldrazi, and lighter on the Landfall cards that most Azusa decks steer toward, which makes your list more unique.
If I may make a couple of additional suggestions:
-
I’ve found Mind's Eye to be a little slow, and I personally think Memory Jar is a better choice. It’s more explosive and one mana cheaper.
-
In a deck like this, Genesis Wave can absolutely crush your opponents. As you know, Azusa has no trouble making massive amounts of mana, so casting G-wave where X is 10+ isn’t a big ask.
-
Tooth and Nail is a total slam-dunk. Pay 9 mana, go get your two most favorite Eldrazi and put them on the battlefield. I’d play it over Shared Summons.
-
I know Profit already suggested this, but Field of the Dead is an army in a can. I’ve won so many games with this card, and it pairs very well with your existing strategy of playing fetches from the graveyard.
-
Personally, I’m a big fan of Ancient Greenwarden. It’s another lands from the graveyard effect that doubles your Landfall triggers and is easily tutored for.
-
Concordant Crossroads is a wicked haste-enabler that works for your opponents as well, but if you don’t like your Eldrazi sitting around for a turn, this would be my go-to option. Also, Lightning Greaves.
-
I’m sure I don’t need to tell you this, but Scute Swarm is such a busted card. You may not want to include this being that you’re going for Eldrazi over Landfall, but if you find yourself needing an extra wincon, Scute Swarm is absolutely capable of stealing games.
-
Dryad Arbor can be fetched, and also counts towards your creature count if you decide to include Gaea's Cradle.
That’s all I’ve got for now, but feel free to check out my Azusa build if you want some food for thought! Again, I think you’re off to a strong start with your list.

Azusa, Lost but Seeking Cthulu [Primer]

Boseiju, Who Endures - Interaction that takes up a land slot
Cavern of Souls - Ensures your huge mana investment into eldrazi doesn't go to waste.
Field of the Dead - Zombies!
Gaea's Cradle - Even better with zombies!
Deserted Temple - Untap cradle
Thespian's Stage - Copy field, deserted, opposing utility land or even an eldrazi temple in a pinch
Petrified Field - Recur important utility land
High Market - Sac eldrazi to prevent theft, prevent your GY from being exiled by saccing an eldrazi to shuffle grave in. Depends on the meta, same with Homeward Path
Momentous Fall - More sac outlets! Draw more cards, gain some life, etc...Be aware though, that sacing is additional cost to cast so watch out for blue player
Mana Crypt - Ramp
Realms Uncharted - Tutor for Eye of Ugin, petrefied field and 2 other utility lands. Damned if they do, damned if they dont. Much better with land recursion effects such as crucible, Ramunap Excavator
More suggestions to come should you enjoy these.

Landfall Contingency

I mention this a lot when I look at Tatyova decks, but have you thought about running more lands? Unless a ramp effect actually puts a land down, you're not benefiting from your Commander fwiw, so I feel like you could raise your land count, as long as your Commander is out there is almost always a better land you could draw than any non-land based ramp effect. There are cards like Sakura-Tribe Scout that are almost strictly better than Blisterpod unless I'm missing something major, there are quite a few all told that are similar, but the Scout is the best. In my Tatyova deck I massively built around making those dorks and various ways to bounce lands/untap them, infinite combo is a pretty strong way to win games if your groups are usually okay with it. In addition, if you run more land names (including at least one Snow Forest and Island) you could throw in Field of the Dead, a very good card.
Vs Overrun, you might look at Blossoming Bogbeast, even if Tatyova is giving the only life, another 1 or 2 life makes the Beast pretty competitive, and it can keep going. Without support it's a so-so card, but if you have any potential big life gain then it becomes a bonkers card, especially as it comes out sooner than stuff like Craterhoof Behemoth potentially.

The Inevitable Annihilation

Everflowing Chalice (4 counters) + Voltaic key + Rings = Infinite colorless
Deserted Temple + Scorched Ruins + Rins = Infinite colorless
Expedition Map - Help you find temple, eye of ugin (to find kozilek to refill hand or other eldrazi, also, ramp), or any utility land. It also helps ensure you don't miss a land drop early game.
Field of the Dead - Zombies eat brains for breakfast. Yummy
Mystic forge + Sensei's divining top + artifact cost reducer Cloud Key/Semblance Anvil/Ugin Ineffable = Draw your entire deck. Also note, top + rings w/ basalt = draw your entire deck
Ugin, the Spirit Dragon - Wipe
Blinkmoth Urn - Ramp
Blinkmoth Well - Politics, tap blinkmoth urn, or Winter Orb.
Mycosynth Lattice = Fun shenanigans, especially with urn. Combine with an Karn, the Great Creator for a hard lock. Karn could take the place of liquid metal tongue perhaps?
Metalworker + rings + voltaic key = Infinite colorless
Grim Monolith + forsaken monument + rings = Infinite colorless
Chromatic Orrery + rings + voltaic key = Infinite colorless
Most if not all of the cards suggested for combo are also relevant without it, ensuring little to no dead cards. Let me know what you think, looking forward to your response.
