My custom zombie deck based on the Grave Danger Starter Commander Deck. My goal with this deck was to lean into the mill and cast from graveyard themes. I have added zombies that have built in utility to replace some of the more generic sorceries and enchantments. (Because non-creature spells are mostly useless if they get milled.)

Gisa and Geralf Are very important for being able to cast your zombies from the graveyard. Havengul Lich, Raul, Trouble Shooter, and Liliana, Untouched By Death also provide options for graveyard casting.

The main goal of the deck is to load up the graveyard as fast as possible to generate massive value from Living Death, Patriarch's Bidding, or Zombie Apocalypse.

Dralnu, Lich Lord and Repository Skaab both let you recur your board wipes and other sorceries.

Carrion Feeder or any other sack outlet pairs really well with the mass creature reanimate spells to clear your own board and bonus from any ETB effects again. Carrion Feeder + Living Death is particularly powerful.

I recently removed rooftop storm and all of the tutors from this deck to lower its power level.

Suggestions are welcome!
