Here is my first shot at EDH-deckbuilding from scratch featuring good old-fashioned zombie recursion and self-mill courtesy of Gisa and Geralf.

Based on my area and budget, I've kept to a budget of 35,00€ for the complete deck with no individual cards that cost more than 2,00€.

Still thinking on wincons and overall strategies beyond just "make zombies, let them die, bring them back, etc."

If you have any constructive advice for what to take out or leave in that fit the budget, I'd love to hear it.

Have a bleak and baleful day! ;-)
