Deck discussion for Mono Black Zombie Apocalypse

Need mana ramp or some sort of mana generating artifact to get army of the damned out consistently and effectively. I'd add some more zombie creatures (grave crawler, geralfs messenger, vengeful pharaoh, grave Titan). You need to add flying creatures or destroy spells or you'll get flown right over. Zombie Apocalpse doesn't help much since you won't have very many actual zombies in your graveyard. Cover of darkness is a good card to help get damage through with since it gives all your zombies fear. Grave pact is a killer enchantment in a zombie token deck as is call to the grave. I have plunge into darkness in my zombie deck. Sacrifice a mere 10 zombie tokens and gain 30 life? Why not. Anyways just some ideas. Good luck man

I agree with Jpgirs, some other fun suggestions include:

Diregraf Ghoul for quick aggro
Shimian Spectre to put your enemy off balance (plus flying)
Cemetery Reaper for zombie buffing
Crypt Ghast for ramping (which IMO is practically a requirement if you're running for Army of the Damned to go off before you die)
Grave betrayal for awesome end game
Mutilate for board clear (NECESSARY!)
Muder / victim of night for spot removal.

Check out the zombie deck in my profile - it's a little outdated from what I use now (which isn't standard legal), but it does ok even in that form. If you don't play standard, you can get some really awesome cards like Death Baron, which, when combined with grave betrayal, is ridiculously awesome

Crypt Ghasts are cheap for what they do. Even with the deck you have you can cast Army of Damned on turn 5 & flash it back on turn 6 with one crypt ghast. - if you're on a budget, that card, Mutilate, & diregraf would be my recommendations.

I disagree with Bubblez23 on that one - @ 20 mana you're already running on the fringe of what you should have. If you cut down to 16 then you'll be dead more often than you'll get to play the ghast and ramp. I would recommend adding 2 mana and cutting something else out, to be honest. Maybe the apocalypse cards because you're exiling anyway & a few of the army. Endless is nice, too but 4 is overkill, id cut back to 3 max.

Minus four swamps and add some more cards if you can. 20 is usually a standard number people use for a reason, it works
