Insane deck Poet, I have to agree with you def this one is better than the Hallelujah build, you don't even rely solely on Entreat the angels for the win since you can burn to death with Bonfire. Also the lack of ponders or noxious revival on the Hallelujah made it sort of a gamble to play, yours is more consistent. Congrats.

I'll go easy on the Titan's because my strategy is abuse of Dual casting and the zombie generating spellos + Endless rank of the dead
Thanks, I replaced the arc trails for shocks since scars is going to phase out soon. added Dismember and Go for the throat to sb instead of combust.
Cool deck Poet creatures that can sacrifice themselves or others to activate morbid comes to mind, like Fume Spitter, Furnace Scamp or Disciple of Griselbrand. they will also help you have a creature on the first few turns since all of your current creatures are 4 mana cost or higher. let me know what you think of my standard Zombies deck: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=353080
Good catch with the Terminus Poet, I didn't realize when I suggested that card the lack of synergy with the other cards :S, 4th Wrath is the way to go. Also you are right with Gideon way better than Elspeth for this deck and the land tax should go to 4. racky54 add a few Witchbane Orb to SB, those are good against burn and mill.
I am glad I could help, it seems faster now :)
Ghostly prison is ok, but Story circle is just so good and annoying that I had to do the change.
Amazing deck, is good to see decks with original ideas now and then and not just the same old stuff. Manaramp, you should really improve that buddy and I will give you some suggestions: first off don't reduce too much the land count after all is a control deck not a freaking weenie deck. -2 MindStone -1 O-Ring -1 Gideon Jura +4 Land tax(combined with path to exile it gets stupid lol) -1 Solemn simulacrum(sad robot is good but it's not a dragon you know) +1 Eternal dragon (revives himself and cycle for plains what else do you want!!) -1 Elspeth +1 Plains Control: -3 Condem +3 Terminus Recycle: -2 plains +2 Emeria, the Sky Ruin (bring back two yosei and see what happens) Check my angelic prison deck and let me know what you think: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=356502
you piece of troll, go back to your cave to smell fungus.
Thank you, I am adding 4 to the SB.
Thank you the discard cards that you told are really efficient, I went with cry of contrition and raven's crime because I can discard 2 cards with 1 or 2 mana instead of just one. I am already running 4 copies of Sign in blood and increased to 4 taking away one swamp the Infernal tutor thanks for commenting :)
you may shove it up your a... at least comment something about the deck :).
a couple of swamps swapped to Spawning Pool can offer extra protection.
that is true, but even with 1 Jace erasure and 1 Rite it will take 3 turns to mill what the Dream Twist can mill in 1 turn with 3 mana :), it's just plain faster.
Yeah Tree of Redemption would have been perfect with a "can block any number of creatures" but is good as it is.
I would do these changes: -1 Maalfeld Twins -2 Polluted Dead -1 Sign in blood -1 Monomania -1 Necrobite +3 Geralf's Messenger +3 Geth's Verdict also -2 Horrifying revelation +2 Distress
Graveborn Muse, or Dark Tutelage can speed massively this deck. check my zombie deck and let me know what you think: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=353080
Butcher Ghoul will go well in here as well, it will survive the smallpox. take a look at my zombie deck: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=353080
Highborn Ghoul + Lashwrithe... ouch. really good, I would maybe increase the swamp count to 22 and take out the 2 Blood artist. check my zombie deck: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=353080
you should get the 4 copies of Geth's Verdict and Geralf's Messenger, really good cards. take a look at my zombie deck and let me know what do you think: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=353080
