DrSnipy on The Undercity strikes back!

Thanks alot! I dislike Living Death, because it can cause problems with Massacre Girl in the graveyard, just like Rise of the Dark Realms.

The other two are amazing suggestions! I will try to get hold of these, and try them out (especially Springheart Nantuko).

Ahh Jarad, my favorite golgari boy aside from The Gitrog, Ravenous Ride! This deck looks nice, I use him in a +1 counter setting where he is often a 7 mana game-ender.

Any thoughts on Spinner of Souls/Living Death? Or perhaps Springheart Nantuko seeing you have some landfall synergy. Copy your biggest guy and sac the token copy for value.

I am confused. Living Death isn't in your deck-list.

FormOverFunction on Why Not Simply Use a …

The text size used to scale (the Copper Tablet I have in my torture deck is an example) and it was fine. I’m more concerned with how much stuff the cards do. I do want to have interesting effects, and writing it out in a way that won’t be taken advantage of can be difficult (like with the simple concept of Living Death), but I think they’ve found the sweet spot for font and should focus on maybe limiting cards to one effect.

Tombstone Stairwell can be fun. Everyone likes extra tokens. You can use entry and death triggers (Think Blood Artist and Suture Priest.) to break the symmetry. But it has cumulative upkeep, so it won't be on the board for long.

Monkey Cage is just fun. It's really great with Living Death or Rise of the Dark Realms since the Cage is worded such that it sees all the creatures enter and triggers to all of them (meaning if a creature which costs {1}{U}, a creature which costs {B}{B}{B}, and a creature which costs {W} enter at the same time, you get six tokens.), but even Smile at Death or Victimize nets you two creatures (and tokens equal to their total mana value). Plus, it's a fun creature type with a little bit of unpredictability.

Love a pet deck lol.

So whilst your Commander does let you reanimate a few each turn, feel like some mass return would be a good idea maybe.

Phyrexian Delver, Balthor the Defiled, Zombie Apocalypse, Living Death. Patriarch's Bidding. will all likely give you a better outcome than any non typal based decks. And if you happen to have milled a Gray Merchant of Asphodel then it will see everything else also enter and will count their devotion too!

Also, Noxious Ghoul can be back breaking for other decks, especially if you are getting more than 1 Zomboi onto the battlefield each turn. With an Endless Ranks of the Dead can literally keep everyone off creatures, and your board safe and sound.

Kind of feel Call to the Grave would also be useful given that you only have 2 non Zomboi creatures.

+1, and thanks for sharing your deck

Flarhoon13 on Erebos' Totally Devoted to Death

Dec 13, Erebos' Totally Devoted to Death 1-1 lost a game due to mana screw. Did cast Living Death but Kurtis had Tormod's Crypt to exile my yard.

Second game I hit ramp and curved out very well. Basal Thrull into Ayara, First of Locthwain, turn 4 sacrificed Basal Thrull for Worn Powerstone and Unstable Obelisk. Turn 5 cast Erebos and used 4 mana to draw 2 cards. Turn 6 made Massacre Wurm which killed 8 Saprolings, 4 of which Mira, on Grothama, All-Devouring, made by attacking me with Shroofus Sproutsire, and 4 of which Jesse, on Brion Stoutarm *oversized* made by borrowing Shroofus Sproutsire and attacking me. I didn't mind too much, since Brion Stoutarm *oversized* hucked Shroofus at Mira. Anyway, I added a Royal Assassin to the board for more devotional black pips. Abhorrent Overlord made 9 Harpy tokens and Ayara drained my opponents for 10. Finally, Torment of Hailfire killed Mira and Abhorrent Overlord with his Harpies killed Jesse in combat.
