Funny story...my girlfriend texted me from work and asked if I've seen the spoiler for Corpse Knight, I said yea and she replied "Thank God it's white and can't go in your Sidisi".
That's kinda what I was leaning towards. I'm reshaping my zombie build a little and I remember it catching my eye when it came out but I've yet to try it in the deck yet. Even if you only have one opponent left in the game, you're paying 7 for a 5/5 with menace and likely bringing back at least one creature with it.
My target for Finale of Devastation would probably be Craterhoof off the bat, but it will probably at times depend on the board state. Who doesn't love the occasional Sheoroldred? Too bad the Eldrazi titans are cast triggers and not ETB...that could be interesting if it were.
I'm going to look at the shop today for the new Tamiyo. I already know what I'm going to take out to play-test her.
Bond of Insight has definitely done some work the times I've cast it.
Having played several games with cards from War of the Spark now in my Zombie build, here's my opinions...
Vizier of the Scorpion- If it was even just a 1/2 it would be so much better. Being a 1/1 for 3 just hurts the card so bad. Maybe if it hit all your zombies and not just your tokens. Has been removed.
Gleaming Overseer- Unlike the previous card, the big butt on this 1/4 for 3 makes it very playable with the static ability. Hexproof hasn't mattered yet but giving your tokens Menace? That has actually won me two games already. Will be staying.
Eternal Skylord- Giving all your tokens flying is nice but Wonder is one of the first things I look to put in my graveyard with the many ways of doing so. Has been a dead draw almost every time I've drawn it. Has been removed.
Finale of Devastation- I am dying to get to cast this but I've yet to be draw it or be able to bring it back from my GY in 12 games with it in the deck. Staying as I've yet to get to play it.
Side note- I went with your suggestion DK, I have sleeved up the cards to be able to play either the competitive build or the zombie build with just switching out cards.
That's kinda what I was thinking DK. It's a great card but it kinda seems like Villainous Wealth in that it can have an impact but it doesn't really fit the deck.
It just always seems to win in the same way now, token army swarm. Before there was the Gravecrawler-ping route, the potential Undead Alchemist-Altar of Dementia mill route. I don't know, maybe I just miss having the other potential win-cons which was part of what I loved about the deck to begin with.
There's multiple ways to make the swarm, but it's still winning pretty much every time by swarm.
fyi- now my account is apparently fixed lol

Bond of Insight- Has been worth it the times I've played it. The best time being getting back my Cyclonic Rift and my Intuition. Will be staying.

I've debated trying Eternal Taskmaster in the zombie build but have not as of now. Likewise for Storrev, Devkarin Lich. Still hoping to get my hands on a Tamiyo, Collector of Tales to play-test.

Though it is awesome to have a zombie ninja!
I hadn't seen the Undead Augur spoiler. That has some potential.
