Adventure's in the Forgotten Realms update —Aug. 15, 2021

Finally got around to acquiring some of the new D&D cards. The changes are as follows:

Added: Acererak the Archlich, Eye of Vecna, Hand of Vecna, The Book of Vile Darkness, Exploration, and Corpse Harvester.

Removed: Reflections of Littjara, Graf Harvest, Maelstrom Pulse, Growth Spiral, Mystic Reflection, and Liliana's Reaver

I also made changes to the mana base based on the cards I had access to and forgot I had. Deck is way fun to play now

I'm very happy to see Tormod, the Desecrator in here! He is one of my favourite cards from that set. I have him in two different zombie decks (one of which he is a partner commander) because I love his effect so much.

There are a few other things that will give you bonuses for removing things from your graveyard. I'm not sure how much they fit your theme, but Syr Konrad, the Grim is fun for the ping damage, and Desecrated Tomb gives you bats!

If you do end up including these, I would definitely recommend Zombie Apocalypse too for the combos you could get off.

This looks like a fun deck, either way. Good job!

Thanks for the feedback! You are right that those do not fit the theme of the deck right now. However, I will keep those in mind if the deck shifts towards a combo-style deck in the future. If you have anymore suggestions, please feel free to comment.

I also have a zombie tribal deck that I just tuned a bit with some newer/better cards. I run Varina, Lich Queen as the commander. Shes worked out fantastically for me as the perfect synergy piece to get tons of stuff in the yard. I also have a muldrotha deck funnily enough, so I know she makes for a good zombie commander. Is there a reason you chose muldrotha, an elemenal, over varina out of curiosity? The allure of green ramp is understandable.

It was mostly the colors and ability. Being able to recur Rooftop Storm when it is destroyed is nice.
