Intro:I know that Grimgrin, Corpse-Born isn’t out yet (along with some other cards from this list) but I was so excited when I saw him that I had to make a deck. My meta is OK with proxy-testing new sets prior to their release so I decided to stick this deck together. It’s got a nice, centralized theme: ZOMBIES. About ¾ the way through I remembered that Grimgrin comes into play tapped, so that’s not really addressed other than a couple of cards. Let me know what you guys think about how to improve; it’s been semi-effective so far. It’s really good against slow decks and sucks bad against super fast ones…
You've got a few tutors and the Rooftop Storm already, why not throw in a Cloudstone Curio and some etb combos? You can run Noxious Ghoul to kill all non-zombies dead, or you can run Dakmor Ghoul to kill everyone but you.

Rooftop Storm + Cloudstone Curio + Dakmor Ghoul + Any Zombie = Infinate bounce of Ghoul to your hand and replay since it is free. Super fragile combo for sure but still interesting
Grave Titan for an unlimited army of 2/2 zomies? Cackling Fiend for angry opponents with empty hands? Sedraxis Alchemist for angry opponents with full hands and empty boards? Skinrender for angry opponents with empty boards? Grave Defiler for your library into play? Phyrexian Delver your graveyard into play and a itty bitty amount of life loss...? Gravedigger does the same without the life loss since they're all 0 costs. 'Cept for the clones ofcourse.
Damn you mike...we might have to zombie battle it out when i see you next
Yaya, i wasn't going to tell you that I had already made one when you txt'd me lol. I was just going to leave mine at home. ...i forgot that you read this board >.<

At least I think that is what they meant...
Ya, 3 card combos seem kinda hard to pull off but i'll consider it...
@Prince Tristan - Good idea; i'll add that when I get a chance. Thanks
I can't imagine why you wouldn't run Reassembling Skeleton next to Grimgrin. Potentially unlimited sacrifices would help keep him up and shambling. Sure, he's not a zombie, but... close enough.

Have you looked at a Thornbite Staff yet? When you attack w/ Grimgrin, he'll destroy a creature. Then the staff triggers and untaps him. Pseudo-vigilance for him.

Awesome idea thanks... lemme see if I can find room for it.
while not a zombie I have been running Oona, Queen of the fae for a nice supply of tokens, and the 5/5 flyer aint to bad either. Also Intruder Alarm might be interesting. you can take a look at my list in the sig.

That one's especially fun if you have Death Baron in play as well for the machine-gun effect.
- No to quest for the grave lord, which is crap
- They are not in flavour, but I really recommend more token generators here. Stuff like throne of empires, myr turbine, breeding pit are all fantastic. The turbine especially is nuts, I played it last night with Grim in play and he was a 15/15 in no time.

Also, if you run Eldrazi Monument the tombstone zombies don't get destroyed at end of turn, so you start amassing an army quickly.

Quicksilver Gargantuan < Gravedigger - QG was a little to clunck pluss what if I wanted to copy your Blightsteel and now he's just a 7/7
Roofstalker Wight < Grave Defiler - RW was kinda filler anyways and GD is just better
Nefashu < Evil Twin - I like the flavor here better
Helldozer < Dakmor Ghoul - HD is to big of a lightning rod
Vedalken Ghoul < Skinrender - VG was filler and Skinrender combos better
Zombie Outlander < Sedraxis Alchemist - ZO was filler and Skinrender combos better
Clone < Living Death - Better than a clone, by a lot!
Mistvein Borderpost < Cellar Door - Just spoiled, woot!
Counterspell < Amulet of Vigor - I don't need control, I need more untapped general!
Diabolic Servitude < Cloudstone Curio - Combo-rific
Rise from the Grave < Exhume - I hate to lose the flavor here but this card is just better/cheaper
Zombify < Reanimate - I hate to lose the flavor here but this card is just better/cheaper
Stir the Grave < Animate Dead - I hate to lose the flavor here but this card is just better/cheaper

I also don't get why Bloodghast was not included, since it's a Zombie (unlike Reassembling Skeleton).
