Exploring Tribal Zombie with Sacrificing Theme

Basically I want to maximize zombie board presence in hopes of triggering Gempalm Polluter for the biggest value I can achieve. I also wanted to have a deck that required no manipulation of my library to look for answers. Wanted every draw to be playable. Undying Evil to counter removal when creatures get too big. Use death triggers from Festering Goblin and Shambling Goblin for light removal and bonus value to sacrificing. If the 1CMC drops survive long enough Gray Merchant of Asphodel will hopefully determine games, if not Gurmag Angler. For removal, on top of death triggers from 1/1s, Bone Splinters + Yoke of the Damned . The only issues to this are hexproof and counterspells. I have not ran into enchantment removal yet in the format.

The wincons I've identified are:

• Carrion Feeder : Pump big and swing
• 1/1 mass board presence
• Cycling Gempalm Polluter or playing Grey Merchant of Asphodel with a full board of 1/1's; Macabre Waltz to bring back and use again if need be.
• Gurmag Angler after filling the graveyard with 1/1's either through pumping Carrion Feeder or attempting hard removal with Bone Splinters

Right now a casual deck that I will probably only play for fun. But it would be interesting to hear ways of making it FNM worthy without having to simply turn it into MBC.
