Deck overview

This deck is a casual Dimir Zombie tribal strategy led by Wilhelt, the Rotcleaver. The game plan focuses on casting Zombie creatures, converting non-decayed dying Zombies into 2/2 decayed tokens, and drawing extra cards during the end step with Wilhelt. Over the midgame, the deck aims to build a wide board presence reinforced by team buffs like Liliana's Mastery and Banner of Kinship, supported by card advantage from Liliana, Dreadhorde General and graveyard recursion from Gravedigger and Zul Ashur, Lich Lord. The deck features minimal mana acceleration and no tutors, making it dependent on natural draws and standard curve sequencing. Victory is achieved through traditional combat damage assisted by incremental life drain from Siege Zombie and Infectious Horror. While the sacrifice engine provides steady card flow, the deck lacks stack protection and fast closing power, requiring multiple turn cycles to eliminate the table.
