Brains for sure. Easy 4 of (at least till we see some other decks). I don't think we can even get to the SB yet with the Anderson list because even the mirror doesn't look that great to me. U can slip aristocrat, true, but that means u are gonna into a beat fest as your critters match up evenly. With any zombie deck running artist (I still believe he is worth running sans mPod just because he will either suck away removal or make it very hard to finish me off via combat or non-terminus spells) your going to lose that brawl simply because you can't gain any life back ( shocklands are reason enough to run artist imo, thrag in heavier builds).
The list looks super aggressive, until you actually play out the hand and realize to win means you MUST over extend... Which can mean death vs w/x anything. Again the mirror isn't pretty. Vs control, well I say that's a fair match. U basically just bet on lol troll, feedin him everything you can as the only way to remove him is active slip or terminus (o-ring is too easy to kill with AD so I'm not counting). If they ever do kill the troll, you would do well to be holding an aristocrat to finish fast...but that seems to not be an option here.
The list is just so underwhelming. Like a flock of angry children. Very noisy, but certainly not threatening

Its a sideboard card for the long games, and helps you to power out a stronger LotLeth Troll.

deathrite shaman is pretty underwhelming. It just seems like it deals 2 damage per turn, which I could do with an attacker. If I ran more Jarad, I could pull his first eff off, but that doesn't seem worth it.
an attacker can be blocked late game. Plus the shaman can be used in response to an undying trigger, which is pretty important in the mirror.
Next thing you will tell me Browbeat  is bad.

Deathrite Shaman is good. Gives you mana, gives you reach, gives you life, gives you a way to exile zombies, gives you a way to exile reanimator targets.
Just be careful, because your opponent can exile the card you target with Shaman to counter the effect, even the mana one.

Ok i know this deck may be a bit strange but its actually doing pretty well. i have played online with a few friends. but tell me what you think. Basic B/G Zombie deck i was tinkering with. a few options may seem a bit strange like Bloodline Keeper  . I use Bloodline Keeper B/c its a flyer wit 3/3 before it transforms and it's a token maker which i can sacrifice for the effects of Bone Splinters  and Grim Backwoods  Plus they make great Chump blockers. I also run Diregraf Captain  to pump up my Zombies. whated to do things a tad differently Creature (24)
Instant (6)
Land (23)
Sorcery (4)
Enchantment (3)

List I've settled on for now that loses hardcore to Angel Ramp which is a problem if anyone actually plays that deck. ps. Desecration Demon is sick out of the board against Angel ramp and random durdly control decks. Land 4 x Cavern of Souls  2 x Golgari Guildgate  4 x Overgrown Tomb  4 x Woodland Cemetery  8 x Swamp  Creatures 4 x Blood Artist  4 x Diregraf Ghoul  4 x Dreg Mangler  4 x Gravecrawler  4 x Geralf's Messenger  2 x Highborn Ghoul  4 x Lotleth Troll  3 x Rakdos Cackler  Spells 3 x Sign in Blood  4 x Tragic Slip  Enchantments 2 x Rancor  Sideboard 3 x Desecration Demon  3 x Duress  3 x Golgari Charm  4 x Knight of Infamy  2 x Liliana of the Veil  I hate Guildgates with a passion.

o.O The list I played against last night cut it's messengers because they weren't 1 drops, or didn't have haste, and it kicked the ever-loving crap out of whatever got into it's way.

Cutting the best card in this deck other than Blood Artist seems like a terrible idea.
