Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"This is my first and favorite deck. I originally bought the Wilhelt precon and started swapping cards out.. I think what its starting to turn into is a deck where I make 2/2 zombie tokens or small 2 mana zombies sac them for card draw or other utilities and then swing with all my decayed zombies every turn. I added methods of drawing more zombies to replace the sacrificed ones and cards like Grimgrin and altar of bhaal to maximize the usage of the decayed zombies.\n"}]}
