So many singletons......And Buried Ruin. Why corrupt your manabase with Buried Ruin? If you're gonna mess with your mana like that, might as well run Tectonic Edge. Seriously, that card's amazing.

What's your plan here? Are you an aggressive deck or are you looking to control the pace of the game? Or are you somewhere in the middle?

I quite like aggressive decks. I was going for trying to get loads of 2/2 zombie tokens out soon as posible, using Cemetery Reaper and, my 2 grave titans along with the other cards for zombie tokens.

Fair warning here: Grave Titan is not an aggressive card. It does angry angry things, but aggro decks really want to be operating well before turn 6. Might I recommend looking at some of the cheap vampires from Zendikar block? Vampire Lacerator is pretty awesome, and Kalastria Highborn gets insane if you want to go all the way vamps. Bloodghast is a good one too, though it and the Highborn are rare so fair warning.

If your trying to weaken your opponents quickly, its works well for the most part to use bloodseekers and pulse trackers, but, as with previous suggestions, they are vampires, not zombies.
