Deck Description

graveyard based B/U zombie deck.

goal is to pitch advanced stitchwing to the graveyard and bring it into play early.
also unsure about choosing prized amalgam or lord of the accursed. I like both, but prized amalgam fits better I think.

How to Play

turn one crypt keeper
turn two discard advanced stitchwing to create a 2/2 zombie
turn three bring back stitchwing from the graveyard, hopefully discarding a couple of amalgams, which then come back to the battlefield.

most of my creatures can come back from the graveyard, making them hard to get rid of permanently without exiling them.

squee is purely discard fodder because he keeps coming back to my hand.

Deck discussion for B/U zombies

Check out Mind Bomb, maybe that's easier for you than some of the discard outlets you currently have.

Ancient Excarvation is way better in this than Absorb Vis !! Or Jhessian Zombies for that matter.

You might consider adding Squee to always have something to discard.

Rune snag might be better than mana leak due to all your graveyard interactions, especially Ancient Excavation.
I agree on Squee having big potential in the deck.
Besides that, I don't really know, Nightscape Familiar seems quite out of place but I am not sure what the replacement would be quite yet, everything that comes to mind seems suboptimal.

Maybe Rotting Rats or the new Miasmatic Mummy.

Oh and Withered Wretch and Vodalian Zombie for the sideboard (the *actual* sideboard).

I agree that Rune snag is probably better here. made the change.
originally had nightscape familiar for the cost reduction and as a resilient zombie to keep gravecrawler active.

They were good when you still had Frantic Search, but now Rotting Rats is the better choice. Funny thing they are zombies :)
