I believe you're on the right track. I think you should consider a few main cards like Student of War, Worldslayer, and maybe Fiendslayer Paladin.

Wow, great point. I'll definitely have to try that.
Treacherous pit dweller will get ya got.
Oh, I'm sorry I posted that before you finished and it was a blank with a number for a name ha. No disrespect intended.
You might consider Vorel of the Hull Clade, and also Contagion Engine.
Lol, I love the Card Legality section here.
I suggest dropping out the rooftop storm. I use a deck very similar to this as my main deck, and I have found that it's much better to run "Call to the Grave".I really like the idea you have with Buried alive, but maybe some larger zombies to work with that idea could help? E.G. Dread Slaver, or Skaab Ruinator? The Skaab Ruinator would also be a wise choice for it's ability to keep coming back. I can tell you first hand that your alchemist will be target #1. Also, you might consider dropping out Ghoulraiser, only because it's so random. My suggestion would be drop out 2x Ghoulraiser, 2x Gravedigger, and add 2x Havengul Lich, and either Raise from the grave for single target, or Immortal servitude for mass revival. I have found Immortal servitude works wonders with this type of idea, considering that a good portion of the cretures running here are 3-4 cast, so it basically works as a mini-apocalypse. Here's a link to how I run it, maybe you can find some ideas you like. http://www.mtgvault.com/ncarver/decks/from-the-grave/
He means murder, death, kill. Generally I like to refer to it as "Removal".
So here is the current idea. A little more on the expensive side, but also more well rounded.http://www.mtgvault.com/ncarver/decks/immortal-maniac-selfmill/
I run a straight blue version of this. I have been thinking of revising it to be BUG. I'll link it to you when I finish it.
Yeah, I have used this tournament before RTR came in, and people were so confused and angry when I won. Have not been to anything tournament style since AVR, so i dont even know what to expect any more.
You left this at my house.
Thanks for the suggestions man. The main reason I keep the Wight around is because all the people I play with know that the second Undead Alchemist tries to come out, he is either countered, or dead before he can even say hello. So the Wight of Precinct Six serves as a backup plan. The Sword of Body and Mind is, without a doubt better than the trepanation blade, but I currently do not have any more of the swords, and I tend to not like to build outside my current limits.Grave crawler is a great idea, and definitely a great way to create a diversion when equipped so that something else can get through. I agree about GrimGrin, he works great when the alchemiost can pop out zombies, but any other time he just sits there, and by the time he finally does become untapped, there is a kill or unsummon waiting for him. I would really like to keep this within the extended measures for the time being, so i probably wont be adding the Lich, or Memory Sluice any time soon. I may try some other stuff though, maybe Dimir Charm, or mindsculpt.All in all thanks for the advice.
That's a pretty good idea. I have the CoS, but no Labratory Maniacs. I will see what I can do about that. thanks again.
With all of this stuff about drawing, and not maximum handsize, you should really consider adding Vensers journal. I think the life gained could be exponentially helpful.
This would be absolutely ridiculous to play against.
I really like this idea, Life gain to the max. Would be awesome to see it played.
Drake deck?
Too many Dragonskull Summit's??
Definitely go with the Deathrite Shaman on this one, mostly in my mind for the fact that you can capitalize on sacrificing your Elk's by using them to gain life and keep your boat floating against the many aggro decks. Also, Woodland Cemetary (as mentioned by others) would really help you out as well as Overgrown Tomb. You may also consider dropping a couple of Bone Splinters to add (if you can afford them) a couple of Liliana of the Veil's, as they would go great with the fore-mentioned Deathrite Shaman.
