I've Got a Fever for More ROTCLEAVER!

Commander / EDH Sacrifice Tokens UB (Dimir) Zombie

MTGBurgeoning


Maybeboard


This Dimir deck is a Zombie tribal build focusing on establishing an overwhelming board state of Zombie creatures. These creatures are the engine to the win conditions of this deck. This build is filled with Zombie creature spells. There are also various spells and abilities that create Zombie creature tokens as well as exploit them for game-ending synergies. With this large and expendable army, victory generally is achieved through combat but also can be gained via life-drain and/or milling our opponents through combo effects. There are numerous graveyard recursion spells and abilities that will allow us to repeatedly reuse cards from our graveyard, further extending our hand and resources while out-valuing our opponents throughout the game. With a swath of disruption and removal spells in the 99, we will be able to interact with our opponents and their board states in order to ensure victory.
