Deck overview

This is a Wilhelt, the Rotcleaver Zombie tribal deck built around generating and sacrificing a steady stream of Zombie tokens to fuel card advantage, drain opponents, and assemble an infinite combo. The primary game plan is to establish a board of Zombies, use Wilhelt's end-step trigger to sacrifice a decayed token for a fresh draw, and then either overwhelm opponents through combat with lords (Diregraf Captain, Death Baron, Undead Warchief) or close the game with the Gravecrawler + sac outlet + drain loop (e.g., Gravecrawler + Phyrexian Ghoul + Diregraf Captain). The deck leans heavily on the graveyard for recursion (Ever After, Dread Return, Soul of Innistrad) and token multiplication (Endless Ranks of the Dead, Curse of Disturbance). Its speed is moderate, its consistency is held back by a near-total lack of tutors, and its resilience is carried by a single reliable combo line backed by a thick recursion package.
