Zombie sacrifice deck ideas
Deck Help forum

Hey all, I am new to magic and I could really use some advice on a deck I am trying to build. It is centered on using Gnawing Zombie + Gravecrawler + Rooftop Storm. It basically creates an infinite loop of life loss. I fear the problem is that it will take too long to get the combo out. Any ideas?

Sorry! I realize now that Rooftop Storm doesn't work the way I thought it did. It appears that it would be an infinite loop with Carrion Feeder + Gravecrawler. Would it work by adding in Diregraf Captain for the life loss. Or by beefing up Carrion Feeder and finding cards to make it unblockable?

Gavony Unhallowed is always great in any deck that has a lot of creatures dying or being sac'd.

How sold are you on sticking to zombies? If not totally sold, you might be interested in looking at other sacrifice-centric shells such as Aristocrats, Melira Company, and Rally decks. The Rally link was for Standard, but can fairly easily be adapted to modern.

Diregraf Captain/Zulaport Cutthroat + Nantuko Husk/Carrion Feeder + Gravecrawler + Rooftop Storm = infinite lifedrain(You can change the lifegain zombie with Diregraf Colossus and you'll get infinite zombie tokens.)

If you need more lifedrain zombies you can check out the new WB one.

It still costs 2 mana per life loss to combo off like that.
