This is a Zombie tribal deck focused on beating down with Zombies, triggering abilities when they die, and bringing them back from the graveyard to keep it going.

Now Gravecrawler can come out of the graveyard with its own ability but there's a couple of Liliana, Untouched By Death and one of Gisa and Geralf that can let any zombie be cast from the graveyard. Any time you do that it triggers Secrets of the Dead so you draw a card and brings any Prized Amalgams that were in the graveyard to the battlefield as well. Lord of the Undead can also get them back to your hand in case of emergency in addition to boosting all your zombies.

Since casting things from the graveyard is better than from the hand there's a few cards to kill our own creatures and get them into the graveyard. Fleshbag Marauder requires a sacrifice. Plague Belcher's -1/-1 counters can kill other creatures in the deck and doing so triggers its ability. Carrion Feeder's ability also requires a sacrifice and can be done repeatedly with a Gravecrawler for just 1 mana. These all get silly when done with a Gravecrawler.

Our zombies dying is extra great because it triggers the abilities on Diregraf Captain and Plague Belcher so the opponent loses life, as well as Undead Augur so we lose life too but get to draw cards.

Other spells include Compelling Deterrence for getting rid of stuff, Lazotep Plating for protecting zombie stuff and making a bonus zombie as well. Liliana's Mastery boosts our zombies and makes a couple zombie tokens which makes Gravecrawler able to come back. There's also one Liliana, Dreadhorde General because she is generally useful but also Yoshitaka Amano has been one of my favorite illustrators since I was very small and this is an excuse to get that printing. I also threw in one of The Scarab God because I already have one and it's an absurdly strong card.

And that's it! What do y'all think?
