I have made this deck to organize a list of all the cards I believe that can be used in a "Lich" themed deck. With the main focus centered around trading crazy amounts of life while pumping out zombie creatures each turn. The reason I made this guide was because I really enjoy the "lich" concept in magic and want to build many lich themed decks, but I have found little source to use as a guide as lich isn't an official theme. So here it is, I'll be breaking down cards into categories such as life-control, liches, zombie army, and others such as cards that prevent you from losing from going to 0 life, which I'll label as phylacteries.

Creatures that I refer to as a lich usually have the creature types zombie and wizard mixed in with them, or some other combination that makes them a magical zombie. I listed lich commanders that would keep the lich theme, and also other commanders that aren't all "liches", but all work well in a zombie themed and/or life control deck.

Any input is appreciated, as this list is not all inclusive. Thanks for reading!
