Here’s another Zombie inspired by Stitcher's Supplier to synergize with Corpse Centipede and Flesh Mimic:

(Edited: Increased casting cost and toughness, and changed last clause to mill only when target by opponents’ spells or abilities)

Any comments or suggestions are welcome!

I would say that it should read "...or is the target of a spell or ability an opponent controls...", because with cards like Outrider en-Kor you can just mill your whole library pretty easily. Alternatively, it could read "...or is the target of a spell..."--that'd mean you could still be the one to do the targeting, but it would be harder to "go infinite".

Good point Omniscience_is_life, you’re right that it’s too easy to go infinite with the way it is currently printed. I changed the last clause to make it trigger only when targeted by an opponent’s spell or ability. Thanks!

Thanks for the suggestion Mcat1999! I’ll take your advice - I upped the Colossus’ casting cost and toughness. Now it’s harder to remove and will stick around to mill my library longer.

When I started making custom cards, at first I was just having fun memorializing random ideas. But now that you mention it, I think I will try to keep going with the zombie self-mill and graveyard recursion theme and make a custom precon! I’ll cook up a wicked commander in your honor, hehe :)
