There are a few main concepts for  '''Zombie Deck'''. One focuses on [[swarm]]ing the [[Playing Field|field]] with [[Zombie]]s, usually from the [[Graveyard]]. Other Zombie Decks, however, focus on [[mill]]ing your opponent's [[Main Deck|Deck]] out. Star cards commonly used in these decks include "[[Il Blud]]", "[[Mezuki]]", "[[Goblin Zombie]]", "[[Plaguespreader Zombie]]", "[[Pyramid Turtle]]", "[[Kasha]]" and "[[Zombie Master]]".
 +
 +
==Zombie Burn Deck==
 +
The Zombie Burn Deck can be played different ways. Combinations such as "[[Malevolent Mech - Goku En]]" or "[[Zombie Mammoth]]" with "[[Vengeful Servant]]" and "[[Creature Swap]]" are effective ways to do massive amounts of damage easily, but cards that reverse any damage taken like "[[Prime Material Dragon]]" and "[[Rainbow Life]]" or cards that negate the activation of [[Trap]] or [[Spell Cards]] like "[[Dark Bribe]]", "[[Solemn Judgment]]" etc, can stop these effects all too easily. In addition, if you are facing another Zombie Deck or a Deck with Zombies in it, the strategy won't work.
 +
 +
Another Zombie Burn strategy involves inflicting damage when "[[Burning Skull Head]]" is Special Summoned from the hand with the effect of "[[Skull Flame]]" and "[[Skull Conductor]]", coupled with "[[Everliving Underworld Cannon]]" and "[[Dark Room of Nightmare]]" for additional damage. They might not do as much damage in a single hit, but they are more effective because there are fewer card effects to stop the combination, and "[[Skull Flame]]" is easily summoned using [[Call of the Mummy]] or [[Pyramid Turtle]], with the added advantage of having 2600 ATK.
 +
 +
"[[Shutendoji]]" and "[[Burial from a Different Dimension]]" can help to bring back removed from play "[[Skull Flame]]"s and "[[Burning Skull Head]]"s. "[[Supersonic Skull Flame]]" can also unleash additional damage simply by having "[[Burning Skull Head]]"s in your Graveyard, and searchers such as "[[Goblin Zombie]]" and "[[Sangan]]" could be used to put "[[Burning Skull Head]]" in your hand.

==Zombie Sworn/Chaos Zombie Deck==
 +
The 'Zombiesworn' Deck uses the "[[Lightsworn]]" engine to send [[Zombie]] monsters to the [[Graveyard]] for "[[Mezuki]]" to revive. "[[Chaos Sorcerer]]" is also used because of the abundance of [[LIGHT]] and [[DARK]] monsters.
 +
 +
With the [[March 2011 Lists|list from March 2011]] "[[Chaos Sorcerer]]" is now [[Unlimited]], making this Deck-type more effective than it was last format. Also because of this new format, "[[Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning]]" is going to be popular, and this deck is believed to be the most popular deck of "[[Twilight]]"

==Zombie World Deck==
 +
Also known as The Army Of Darkness, this Deck type, as the name suggests, is based around the [[Field Spell]], "[[Zombie World]]". This Deck is very versatile, as almost any of the [[Zombie]] staples can be splashed in. This Deck can be brutally effective against many other Decks, as "[[Zombie World]]", as well as changing all your opponents monsters on the field and in the Graveyard into [[Zombie]]s, also stops your opponent from tribute summoning anything other than a [[Zombie]]-type monster. This negatively affects many commonly used Decks, such as [[Disaster Dragon]], [[Monarch]]s and [[Plant]]s. Many cards are designed specifically to work with the [[Field Spell]], such as "[[Doomkaiser Dragon]]" or "[[Trap of the Imperial Tomb]]" or even "[[Sacred Crane]]" or "[[Molten Zombie]]" for draw power. These cards have very good effects, but are sometimes better to avoid, as they are useless without the Field Spell. Other cards have indirect merit, such as "[[Getsu Fuhma]]", "[[Marionette Mite]]", or even "[[Tutan Mask]]" when used on your opponents to stop pesky Spells or Traps.   
 +
   
 +
This Deck has many Zombie staples such as "[[Pyramid Turtle]]", "[[Zombie Master]]", "[[Goblin Zombie]]", or even "[[Plaguespreader Zombie]]" if you want to [[Synchro Summon]]. The key player in this Deck is without a doubt "[[Il Blud]]". "[[Getsu Fuhma]]" can be used to destroy most monsters with higher ATK than your Zombies if need be.  "[[Kasha]]" can also be included, but remember that monsters treated as Zombies by the effect of "[[Zombie World]]" that are returned to the Deck are not counted towards its ATK. "[[Immortal Ruler]]" can also be used to recycle "[[Zombie World]]".

==Zombie D.D./Beat down Deck==
 +
This Deck involves using "[[Shutendoji]]" and "[[Necroface]]" to remove from play large amounts of cards, similar to a [[Necromill OTK|Necromill Deck]], followed by [[recycling]] "[[Necroface]]" with the effect of [[Shutendoji]] and Normal Summoning it as a massive [[beatstick]].
 +
 +
With this technique, you can [[Recycling|recycle]] your Deck, and use "[[Soul Absorption]]" to gain [[Life Points]] quickly. However, you might Deck out quickly because of the speed you can [[remove from play]] from the top of your Deck with the draw power you get with "[[Shutendoji]]", but you can still recycle your Deck with the effect of "[[Necroface]]". By doing this, you can greatly annoy your opponent.

==Diva Zombie Deck==
 +
This Deck uses the revival effects of Zombie monsters with the effect of "[[Deep Sea Diva]]" to Special Summon other [[Sea Serpent]]s (most notably another "[[Deep Sea Diva]]") to quickly Synchro Summon. This Deck type is heavily reliant on "[[Mezuki]]" and its effect to quickly Special Summon Zombie monsters in the Graveyard, along with "[[Burial from a Different Dimension]]" to recycle it.
 +
 +
This Deck was severely slowed by the Limiting of "[[Burial from a Different Dimension]]" in [[March 2010 Lists|March 2010]].

==Z-HEROes/Absolute Zombies==
 +
This Deck uses the "[[Destiny HEROes|Destiny HERO]]" engine for extra draw power, as well as using "[[Destiny HERO - Malicious]]" to [[Synchro Summon]] quickly. It is also known to include the aforementioned "[[Deep Sea Diva|Diva Engine]]", as they work with "[[Miracle Fusion]]" to [[Fusion Summon]] "[[Elemental HERO Absolute Zero]]". This Deck is also less reliant on "[[Deep Sea Diva|Divas]]" for Synchro Summoning.

==BludVise Synchro Deck==
 +
This Deck works by using the [[Equip Spell]] "[[Supervise]]" on "[[Il Blud]]" to Special Summon Zombies from your hand or Graveyard and use them for Synchro Summoning. It works like a [[Gigavise]] Deck but is admittedly slower. However, with a bit of ingenuity and skill it can work pretty well and it is possible to Synchro Summon almost as quickly. The main focus is to summon "[[Il Blud]]" and then use "[[Supervise]]" to have it gain its effect.
 +
 +
Since this is a Zombie Deck, "[[Il Blud]]" greatly benefits from Zombie revival cards such as "[[Book of Life]]". Also, "[[Pyramid Turtle]]" can quickly Special Summon "[[Il Blud]]" from the Deck. Once the effect of "[[Il Blud]]" has been activated, simply Special Summon Zombies to swarm the field and then use [[Tuner monsters]] to [[Synchro Summon|tune]] with them.
 +
"[[Plaguespreader Zombie]]" is the ideal tuner monster in this deck, but "[[Krebons]]", "[[Blackwing - Gale the Whirlwind]]", and "[[Dark Resonator]]" all have good synergy with this deck since they are all [[DARK]] monsters.
 +
 +
To speed this Deck up, "[[Hidden Armory]]" is useful to search "[[Supervise]]" and cards such as "[[Goblin Zombie]]" can help bring "[[Plaguespreader Zombie]]" from the Deck to your hand. Cards such as "[[Mezuki]]" can also help summon "[[Il Blud]]" from the Graveyard in case it is destroyed, and cards like "[[Shutendoji]]" can help recycle the effect of [[Mezuki]]. With all the tribute fodder available because of "[[Il Blud]]", it is not a bad idea to add a few "[[Caius the Shadow Monarch]]" to the Deck for field removal. With a bit of work, this Deck can be pretty competitive.

==Zombie Beatdown-Mill==
 +
 +
''See also: [[Necromill OTK]].''
 +
 +
As the name suggests, this is a [[beatdown]] and milling Deck using Zombies. This technique starts by drawing "[[Allure of Darkness]]" and removing "[[Necroface]]", then removing 5 cards from your opponent's Deck and disrupting their strategies. Unlike the "Zombie D.D." Deck's strategies, however, this does not focus on using the first effect of "[[Necroface]]" to make it a beatstick. It uses its second effect to mill, so instead of summoning "[[Necroface]]", you drop it using the effect of "[[Zombie Master]]" and summon "[[Shutendoji]]", then repeat until you are satisfied. After milling as much as you can, let "[[Shutendoji]]" use its effect to retrieve a removed from play "[[Il Blud]]" and or other high-ATK Zombies, because they were likely milled by "[[Necroface]]". You can also send out "[[Pyramid Turtle]]" to get onto the field any strong Zombies still left in your deck or use "[[Return from the Different Dimension]]" to finish the job.
 +
 +
When you are finished with the milling strategy it is very important that you get as many Zombies as you can onto the field, but it is also good (but not always recommended) to stack up your Deck with 60 cards, so that if all else fails, you can Normal Summon "[[Necroface]]" and use its second effect for the kill.
 +
 +
Or, you may use the ever-popular milling effect of "[[Soul-Absorbing Bone Tower]]". there are a number of ways to do this.... but you'll need to have 3 copies of "[[Soul-Absorbing Bone Tower]]" and possibly 3 of copies "[[Inferno Reckless Summon]]". Keep in mind, the opponent's monster must be face up for "[[Inferno Reckless Summon]]" to activate. All you need is to Special Summon one, and after that, you may activate "[[Inferno Reckless Summon]]". Your opponent will mill 2 cards from the top of his/her Deck. Even with "[[Zombie World]]" on the field, a simultaneous summon of the three or four monsters (depending on if your opponent has any more monsters of the same name) will only count as one time. However, any other Special Summon after that, will result in your opponent milling 6 cards off the top of their Deck for each time a monster is Special Summoned. "[[Il Blud]]" will also be the main priority card of this Deck. If you can either summon "[[Il Blud]]" or "[[Colossal Fighter]]" on the field, especially with "[[Colossal Fighter]]" on the field, it's game over. The effect of "[[Colossal Fighter]]" may be used on himself, but not if "[[Zombie World]]" is presently on the field since he will no longer be a [[Warrior]]. Only a "[[DNA Surgery]]" will help you to accomplish a complete Deck out in one turn if you have enough Life Points.

==Wights==
 +
A "[[Wight]]" Deck combines a self milling strategy to send multiple "[[Wight]]s" ("[[Skull Servant]]", "[[King of the Skull Servants]]", "[[The Lady in Wight]]", and "[[Wightmare]]") from your hand and Deck to the Graveyard in order to power up "[[King of the Skull Servants]]". Typical milling engines can be used to run this Deck, such as the fast milling from "[[Magical Merchant]]" or the power of destroying opponents cards while milling with [[Lightsworns]] [[Ryko]] and [[Lyla]].

==Zombie Exodia==
 +
This Deck is used to gather all 5 pieces of [[Exodia]] into your hand using cards to draw more cards, including "[[Card of Safe Return]]" (Traditional only), since Zombies focus around swarming from the Graveyard, and "[[Shutendoji]]" to add even more draw power. This Deck also enjoys the stall power of "[[Spirit Reaper]]".

==Pure Zombie Deck==
 +
This deck is 100% made of Zombie-type monsters. In a 40 card Deck, about 1/3rd of the monster portion should be composed of Level 5 or higher monsters because a Pure Zombie Deck uses mostly Special Summoning to bring out strong monsters. Having multiple "[[Pyramid Turtle]]"s is recommended because when it is destroyed, you can summon powerful Zombie monsters such as "[[Burning Skull]]", "[[Ryu Kokki]]", "[[Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon]]", and "[[Koa'ki Meiru Ghoulungulate]]". In addition, you should have "[[Dark Dust Spirit]]" and "[[Despair from the Dark]]" just in case. As for Level 4 or lower monsters, you should have "[[Spirit Reaper]]" for stalling, "[[Paladin of the Cursed Dragon]]" because of it's 1900 ATK power, "[[Goblin Zombie]]" to get whatever you need, "[[Zombie Master]]" for a free Special Summon by discarding a Zombie you want to summon, and summon it because of it's effect, and "[[Mezuki]]" which acts as a [[Monster Reborn]]. For spells and traps, [[Book of Life]] is needed because it acts as a [[Monster Reborn]] but only for Zombie-Type monsters, "[[Pyramid of Wonders]]" and "[[Tutan Mask]]" to negate and destroy staples,and "[[Call of the Mummy]]" to special summon basically anything you want. And finally "[[Solidarity]]", since all of your monsters are Zombie-Type monsters, "[[Solidarity]]" will boost your monster's ATK.

==Zombie Synchro Deck==
 +
This Deck  is used to summon monsters quickly from the Deck with either "[[Pyramid Turtle]]" and/or "[[Mystic Tomato]]" and using "[[Creature Swap]]" on one of them wile either you or your opponent have a stronger monster can Special Summon a stronger monster to give you the edge you need. You can also add monsters to your hand with the "[[Goblin Zombie]]" or Special Summon from the Graveyard with "[[Zombie Master]]", "[[Il Blud]]", "[[Mezuki]]" and "[[Book of Life]]". "[[Dark Armed Dragon]]" is in this Deck for the purpose of being a massive [[beatstick]] and its effect will have your opponent on the edge of his seat. "[[Zombie World]]" is here for the purpose of abusing the effects of "[[Il Blud]], "[[Zombie Master]]" and "[[Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon]]" and punish your opponent with his own creatures. "[[Gorz the Emissary of Darkness]]" and "[[Tragoedia]]" are here for either helping you [[Synchro Summon]] or to take your opponent out with high ATK power. "[[Blackwing - Gale the Whirlwind]]", "[[Krebons]]" and "[[Emergency Teleport]]" are in this Deck to help with the instant [[Synchro Summon]], the "[[Stop Attack]]" effect or to half the ATK and DEF points for that extra kick.

Revision as of 13:11, 12 January 2012

There are a few main concepts for Zombie Deck. One focuses on swarming the field with Zombies, usually from the Graveyard. Other Zombie Decks, however, focus on milling your opponent's Deck out. Star cards commonly used in these decks include "Il Blud", "Mezuki", "Goblin Zombie", "Plaguespreader Zombie", "Pyramid Turtle", "Kasha" and "Zombie Master".

Zombie Burn Deck

The Zombie Burn Deck can be played different ways. Combinations such as "Malevolent Mech - Goku En" or "Zombie Mammoth" with "Vengeful Servant" and "Creature Swap" are effective ways to do massive amounts of damage easily, but cards that reverse any damage taken like "Prime Material Dragon" and "Rainbow Life" or cards that negate the activation of Trap or Spell Cards like "Dark Bribe", "Solemn Judgment" etc, can stop these effects all too easily. In addition, if you are facing another Zombie Deck or a Deck with Zombies in it, the strategy won't work.

Another Zombie Burn strategy involves inflicting damage when "Burning Skull Head" is Special Summoned from the hand with the effect of "Skull Flame" and "Skull Conductor", coupled with "Everliving Underworld Cannon" and "Dark Room of Nightmare" for additional damage. They might not do as much damage in a single hit, but they are more effective because there are fewer card effects to stop the combination, and "Skull Flame" is easily summoned using Call of the Mummy or Pyramid Turtle, with the added advantage of having 2600 ATK.

"Shutendoji" and "Burial from a Different Dimension" can help to bring back removed from play "Skull Flame"s and "Burning Skull Head"s. "Supersonic Skull Flame" can also unleash additional damage simply by having "Burning Skull Head"s in your Graveyard, and searchers such as "Goblin Zombie" and "Sangan" could be used to put "Burning Skull Head" in your hand.


Zombie Sworn/Chaos Zombie Deck

The 'Zombiesworn' Deck uses the "Lightsworn" engine to send Zombie monsters to the Graveyard for "Mezuki" to revive. "Chaos Sorcerer" is also used because of the abundance of LIGHT and DARK monsters.

With the list from March 2011 "Chaos Sorcerer" is now Unlimited, making this Deck-type more effective than it was last format. Also because of this new format, "Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning" is going to be popular, and this deck is believed to be the most popular deck of "Twilight"

Zombie World Deck

Also known as The Army Of Darkness, this Deck type, as the name suggests, is based around the Field Spell, "Zombie World". This Deck is very versatile, as almost any of the Zombie staples can be splashed in. This Deck can be brutally effective against many other Decks, as "Zombie World", as well as changing all your opponents monsters on the field and in the Graveyard into Zombies, also stops your opponent from tribute summoning anything other than a Zombie-type monster. This negatively affects many commonly used Decks, such as Disaster Dragon, Monarchs and Plants. Many cards are designed specifically to work with the Field Spell, such as "Doomkaiser Dragon" or "Trap of the Imperial Tomb" or even "Sacred Crane" or "Molten Zombie" for draw power. These cards have very good effects, but are sometimes better to avoid, as they are useless without the Field Spell. Other cards have indirect merit, such as "Getsu Fuhma", "Marionette Mite", or even "Tutan Mask" when used on your opponents to stop pesky Spells or Traps.

This Deck has many Zombie staples such as "Pyramid Turtle", "Zombie Master", "Goblin Zombie", or even "Plaguespreader Zombie" if you want to Synchro Summon. The key player in this Deck is without a doubt "Il Blud". "Getsu Fuhma" can be used to destroy most monsters with higher ATK than your Zombies if need be. "Kasha" can also be included, but remember that monsters treated as Zombies by the effect of "Zombie World" that are returned to the Deck are not counted towards its ATK. "Immortal Ruler" can also be used to recycle "Zombie World".

Spell Cards

Trap Cards

Zombie D.D./Beat down Deck

This Deck involves using "Shutendoji" and "Necroface" to remove from play large amounts of cards, similar to a Necromill Deck, followed by recycling "Necroface" with the effect of Shutendoji and Normal Summoning it as a massive beatstick.

With this technique, you can recycle your Deck, and use "Soul Absorption" to gain Life Points quickly. However, you might Deck out quickly because of the speed you can remove from play from the top of your Deck with the draw power you get with "Shutendoji", but you can still recycle your Deck with the effect of "Necroface". By doing this, you can greatly annoy your opponent.

Diva Zombie Deck

This Deck uses the revival effects of Zombie monsters with the effect of "Deep Sea Diva" to Special Summon other Sea Serpents (most notably another "Deep Sea Diva") to quickly Synchro Summon. This Deck type is heavily reliant on "Mezuki" and its effect to quickly Special Summon Zombie monsters in the Graveyard, along with "Burial from a Different Dimension" to recycle it.

This Deck was severely slowed by the Limiting of "Burial from a Different Dimension" in March 2010.


Z-HEROes/Absolute Zombies

This Deck uses the "Destiny HERO" engine for extra draw power, as well as using "Destiny HERO - Malicious" to Synchro Summon quickly. It is also known to include the aforementioned "Diva Engine", as they work with "Miracle Fusion" to Fusion Summon "Elemental HERO Absolute Zero". This Deck is also less reliant on "Divas" for Synchro Summoning.


BludVise Synchro Deck

This Deck works by using the Equip Spell "Supervise" on "Il Blud" to Special Summon Zombies from your hand or Graveyard and use them for Synchro Summoning. It works like a Gigavise Deck but is admittedly slower. However, with a bit of ingenuity and skill it can work pretty well and it is possible to Synchro Summon almost as quickly. The main focus is to summon "Il Blud" and then use "Supervise" to have it gain its effect.

Since this is a Zombie Deck, "Il Blud" greatly benefits from Zombie revival cards such as "Book of Life". Also, "Pyramid Turtle" can quickly Special Summon "Il Blud" from the Deck. Once the effect of "Il Blud" has been activated, simply Special Summon Zombies to swarm the field and then use Tuner monsters to tune with them. "Plaguespreader Zombie" is the ideal tuner monster in this deck, but "Krebons", "Blackwing - Gale the Whirlwind", and "Dark Resonator" all have good synergy with this deck since they are all DARK monsters.

To speed this Deck up, "Hidden Armory" is useful to search "Supervise" and cards such as "Goblin Zombie" can help bring "Plaguespreader Zombie" from the Deck to your hand. Cards such as "Mezuki" can also help summon "Il Blud" from the Graveyard in case it is destroyed, and cards like "Shutendoji" can help recycle the effect of Mezuki. With all the tribute fodder available because of "Il Blud", it is not a bad idea to add a few "Caius the Shadow Monarch" to the Deck for field removal. With a bit of work, this Deck can be pretty competitive.


Zombie Beatdown-Mill

See also: Necromill OTK.

As the name suggests, this is a beatdown and milling Deck using Zombies. This technique starts by drawing "Allure of Darkness" and removing "Necroface", then removing 5 cards from your opponent's Deck and disrupting their strategies. Unlike the "Zombie D.D." Deck's strategies, however, this does not focus on using the first effect of "Necroface" to make it a beatstick. It uses its second effect to mill, so instead of summoning "Necroface", you drop it using the effect of "Zombie Master" and summon "Shutendoji", then repeat until you are satisfied. After milling as much as you can, let "Shutendoji" use its effect to retrieve a removed from play "Il Blud" and or other high-ATK Zombies, because they were likely milled by "Necroface". You can also send out "Pyramid Turtle" to get onto the field any strong Zombies still left in your deck or use "Return from the Different Dimension" to finish the job.

When you are finished with the milling strategy it is very important that you get as many Zombies as you can onto the field, but it is also good (but not always recommended) to stack up your Deck with 60 cards, so that if all else fails, you can Normal Summon "Necroface" and use its second effect for the kill.

Or, you may use the ever-popular milling effect of "Soul-Absorbing Bone Tower". there are a number of ways to do this.... but you'll need to have 3 copies of "Soul-Absorbing Bone Tower" and possibly 3 of copies "Inferno Reckless Summon". Keep in mind, the opponent's monster must be face up for "Inferno Reckless Summon" to activate. All you need is to Special Summon one, and after that, you may activate "Inferno Reckless Summon". Your opponent will mill 2 cards from the top of his/her Deck. Even with "Zombie World" on the field, a simultaneous summon of the three or four monsters (depending on if your opponent has any more monsters of the same name) will only count as one time. However, any other Special Summon after that, will result in your opponent milling 6 cards off the top of their Deck for each time a monster is Special Summoned. "Il Blud" will also be the main priority card of this Deck. If you can either summon "Il Blud" or "Colossal Fighter" on the field, especially with "Colossal Fighter" on the field, it's game over. The effect of "Colossal Fighter" may be used on himself, but not if "Zombie World" is presently on the field since he will no longer be a Warrior. Only a "DNA Surgery" will help you to accomplish a complete Deck out in one turn if you have enough Life Points.

Wights

A "Wight" Deck combines a self milling strategy to send multiple "Wights" ("Skull Servant", "King of the Skull Servants", "The Lady in Wight", and "Wightmare") from your hand and Deck to the Graveyard in order to power up "King of the Skull Servants". Typical milling engines can be used to run this Deck, such as the fast milling from "Magical Merchant" or the power of destroying opponents cards while milling with Lightsworns Ryko and Lyla.

See Also: Wight.


Zombie Exodia

This Deck is used to gather all 5 pieces of Exodia into your hand using cards to draw more cards, including "Card of Safe Return" (Traditional only), since Zombies focus around swarming from the Graveyard, and "Shutendoji" to add even more draw power. This Deck also enjoys the stall power of "Spirit Reaper".


Pure Zombie Deck

This deck is 100% made of Zombie-type monsters. In a 40 card Deck, about 1/3rd of the monster portion should be composed of Level 5 or higher monsters because a Pure Zombie Deck uses mostly Special Summoning to bring out strong monsters. Having multiple "Pyramid Turtle"s is recommended because when it is destroyed, you can summon powerful Zombie monsters such as "Burning Skull", "Ryu Kokki", "Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon", and "Koa'ki Meiru Ghoulungulate". In addition, you should have "Dark Dust Spirit" and "Despair from the Dark" just in case. As for Level 4 or lower monsters, you should have "Spirit Reaper" for stalling, "Paladin of the Cursed Dragon" because of it's 1900 ATK power, "Goblin Zombie" to get whatever you need, "Zombie Master" for a free Special Summon by discarding a Zombie you want to summon, and summon it because of it's effect, and "Mezuki" which acts as a Monster Reborn. For spells and traps, Book of Life is needed because it acts as a Monster Reborn but only for Zombie-Type monsters, "Pyramid of Wonders" and "Tutan Mask" to negate and destroy staples,and "Call of the Mummy" to special summon basically anything you want. And finally "Solidarity", since all of your monsters are Zombie-Type monsters, "Solidarity" will boost your monster's ATK.


Zombie Synchro Deck

This Deck is used to summon monsters quickly from the Deck with either "Pyramid Turtle" and/or "Mystic Tomato" and using "Creature Swap" on one of them wile either you or your opponent have a stronger monster can Special Summon a stronger monster to give you the edge you need. You can also add monsters to your hand with the "Goblin Zombie" or Special Summon from the Graveyard with "Zombie Master", "Il Blud", "Mezuki" and "Book of Life". "Dark Armed Dragon" is in this Deck for the purpose of being a massive beatstick and its effect will have your opponent on the edge of his seat. "Zombie World" is here for the purpose of abusing the effects of "Il Blud, "Zombie Master" and "Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon" and punish your opponent with his own creatures. "Gorz the Emissary of Darkness" and "Tragoedia" are here for either helping you Synchro Summon or to take your opponent out with high ATK power. "Blackwing - Gale the Whirlwind", "Krebons" and "Emergency Teleport" are in this Deck to help with the instant Synchro Summon, the "Stop Attack" effect or to half the ATK and DEF points for that extra kick.

Yokai Deck

This deck is based zombie type monsters earth element mostly these are known as yokai monsters because "Mezuki", "Shutendoji", "Kasha" and "Red Ogre"
