I currently made a B/G Zombie deck and I am thinking about adding a Planeswalker to the deck for added survivabilty.....

I'll probably be removing 1-2  Killing Wave

Any Ideas??

Even any upgrades or anything I am open to all helpful criticism..

4x Blood Artist
4x Diregraf Ghoul
4x Dreg Mangler
4x Geralf's Messenger
4x Gravecrawler
2x Highborn Ghoul
4x Lotleth Troll
4x Rakdos Cackler

4x Overgrown Tomb
14x Swamp
4x Woodland Cemetery

1x Altar's Reap
1x Ultimate Price

3x  Killing Wave

3x Rancor

What's your budget like for walkers? Liliana Vess would be my first pick but she's kinda expensive and you can just add a few Grimoire of the Dead to get the same effect. There's not many walkers that fit into the theme (I think). Vraska the Unseen would fit the color scheme but not the theme (don't know how important that is to you). Otherwise, you're looking at Sorin or Garruk.
Newbs! Ask me your questions but always question my answers
The Six Commandments of Beginning Deck Building

Thou shalt play 60 cards. No more. No less (unless thou so choseth to play EDH... in which case I cannot help thee)

Thou shalt playtest with at least 22 lands (perhaps more for Control, perhaps less for Aggro).

Thou shalt pick no more than three colors of thine own choosing which ye find to be the most fun to play.

Thou shalt use Mana Fixing, lest ye be Mana screwed for all thine days of Planeswalking.

Thou shalt abide by the Rule of Nine.

Thou shalt play a playset (four copies) of the aforementioned Nine.

And Urza saw all and said it was indeed good!

Being so heavy on the Black, liliana of the dark realms would help you ramp and remove creatures or power your tramplings.

Might i ask why you are running rakdos cackler over slitherhead ? I may be missingthe point.

Ahh kay, yeah its in my BG zombies, slitherhead and lotleth troll are very good friends. Nothing like your opponent throwing a weak tragic slip hoping for an easy kill and your response is discarding slitherhead to negate it.

Unfortunately, VCLs do not currently have the tools necessary to take moderation actions directly. VCLs submit their actions to ORCs, who then actually perform the action. This processing can take between a few minutes and several hours, depending on how busy/attentive the ORCs are.


If you see something that needs VCL attention, please use this thread (MTGO) or this thread (paper) to make a request and a VCL will look at it as soon as possible.  CoC violations should be reported to Customer Service using the "report post" button.

a few suggestions,

Bloodthrone Vampire - shes the life (or death) of the party when a messanger and blood artist is around. also twice as powerful as how many black you have with a crawler. And then theres rancor...

Vraska - she can control or bait attacks, if you can manage an ult, (idk y you would) and tragic slip or abrupt decay can push an assassin thru

Garruk Relentless - can be an overpriced removal, but his tokens can be invaluable with bloodthrone, as well as his fetch is great in this creature heavy deck, you can grab the tools you need for combos or when you need the nighthawk fast (who is also a viable inclusion) also his one green in the cmc makes him easy to cast in this heavy black deck.
