So, with Amonketh incoming i have been thinking on adding something like Binding Mummy or Wayward Servant or Anointed Procession to the deck, i think the new zombies could add more flavor to zombie decks. Anyone got any ideas on how to use the new zombies and cards in order to build a BUW deck? or any decks for me to take a look at?

For reference this is my current deckDread Necromancer (focused on creating a horde). I'm actually trying to build a BUW zombies by myself, But I'm too dumb to build it properly.

Since Binding Mummy and Wayward Servant have abilities that trigger when a zombie enters the battlefield, it would be beneficial to push how many zombies get to the field. Thus, pairing cards that push tokens to the battlefield (see: Drunau Corpse Trawler for example, or Dread Summons) with Anointed Procession can dramatically increase the presence of zombies on the battlefield whilst fulfilling the horde you want to create.

Other things that might be helpful:Shamble Back, Diregraf Colossus, Never to Return (aftermath from Amonkhet, it won't format correctly here), and Stir the Sands.

Naturally these are just suggests, and I don't have a full, all-encompassing knowledge of MtG cards that would optimize your deck. You can always play around on gatherer.wizards.com to find cards that push zombies.

That being said, Binding Mummy, Wayward Servant, and Anointed Procession will definitely add to your zombie deck. Lord of the Accursed from Amonkhet is also helpful.

I do hope something in here was at least a little helpful.
