Definitely. It gets all the pumps from the zombie lords plus has trample. If you're able to connect thanks to Urborg + Filth then you're guaranteed to recover. Definitely worth testing in the Zombie build.

Down to 11 zombies in what is becoming my version of the competitive build, three of which are placeholders until I receive the replacements for them. Once I have them I plan on posting a decklist on the forum.
edit- make it 10, found a card I forgot that I had been meaning to put in

What about any new releases? Are they any you want to test? If you're going to be making cuts maybe there might be something new you'd like to test as well.

Storrev, Devkarin Lich is the only thing I've seen that I really wanna test so far. It may fit better in the zombie build but I'm curious to see how it plays. I usually have little trouble popping people for damage with Filth and Wonder in the deck, and when you add that he has trample.

I concur; that's my same logic. Being able to recur creatures like Glen Elendra Archmage is no joke.

Had a really fun game tonight (unfortunately only got in the one because of having to go deal with an issue with my kids), but the game was against Aminatou blink and a Darigaaz Reincarnated dragon tribal. The Aminatou player got ahead quick due to having enough counters in hand to stifle me. Eventually I got Wonder into my graveyard (he had no flying) and kept taking out his Aminatou to keep him in check until I could finally build up. The play that led to the win was casting Clever Impersonator as a copy of his Restoration Angel so I could blink Rune-Scarred Demon and search for Cyclonic Rift to reset them while I bought a turn to cast Muldrotha, the Gravetide. With Muldrotha out I was able to recast Rift from my GY each of the following two turns so that they had to continuously rebuild while I took them out.

I'm afraid you can't spam Cyclonic Rift with Muldrotha; it's not a permanent...

I missed a step in my summation, I used Muldrotha to keep recasting Eternal Witness to return Cyclonic Rift to my hand each turn, using Viscera Seer as a sac outlet on the end step before my turn to put E-Wit back in my GY.

One side effect of unzombifying my zombie version and making it a more competitive version is it's opening up lots of brewing space for my daughters Varina deck.

Ah! That's true! You were making a second Zombie tribal deck at the time. War of the Spark is definitely gonna bring some goodies to Varina as well as Sidisi. Can't wait to see the god eternals. Hopefully Bolas brings the 3 Grixis gods with him as well. It'd be interesting to see what else can be done with them (being as Hazoret wasn't defeated in Hour of Devastation).

The new Vivien looks interesting as well. Might be worth considering for any build that wants to flash creatures in (that's her static ability) that plays in metas where they need to be more reactionary.

The thing is, her other two abilities aren't that relevant in the deck. And if I wanted to give my creatures flash, I could potentially go for Yeva, Nature's Herald instead, which is a card that has the creature type (although it limits the flashed creatures to green).

I'd be careful with replacing Wonder with it since Wonder works from the graveyard. Sure, it grants flying which is not just evasion but also for blocking. But Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth + Filth is more than enough evasion.

Yea, the limitations to green really hurt it's potential but not a bad suggestion.
Oddly enough...I'm excited to see what the zombie tokens for this set look like! I'm really, really, really hoping they look like the zombies in the trailer and on the zombie cards so far. I'm guessing it'll be zombie army tokens and they'll look like those cards.

If Eternal Taskmaster is cheap, it could potentially find a home in the Budget Build.
