• Introduction:

You want to be a Hero? Then die like one.

• The deck:

The deck has a strong self mill strategy that uses graveyard interaction as payoff, including some dredge. Our primary payoff is, however, our own commander, and our main source of zombies, the secondary theme of the deck. We do have a lot of useful tribal lords that will make our zombie horde unbearable and difficult to block. We have some useful reanimation spells and we have the gitrog monster + dakmor salvaje combo in the deck too.

• Why is Sidisi, Brood Tyrant the commander?

She acts as primal payoff for the deck, as both a mill engine and a mill payoff, providing the much needed zombie tokens for our swarming strategy.

• The deck's weaknesses:

Our swarming strategy will be hindered by constant boardwiping. Our commander helps with our main plan but is not completely impossible to plat the deck without him. However, try to keep him safe. We certainly aren't the fastest deck either so beware of very aggresive decks. Be talkative and reactive, you might get some valuable information that will later be used to your advantage: We are planing to play the long, grindy game when using this deck. We are obviously weak to graveyard hosing techs too.

• The deck's strenghts:

We have a strong self mill theme with several payoff excluding our commander, so we are very resilient. The amount of tokens we can make will often be underestimated by less experienced players. Our dredge package helps a lot with the auto mill and has powerful creatures on it, like Golgari Grave-Troll. A very big cave troll flinged at our opponents with Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord is another viable wincon, specially considering that both creatures are able to be recurred by theirselves.
