Flavor Fails

[hyalopterouslemur]

Well, we have Science zombies on Innistrad, and many planes have zombies that are animated by living plants/fungus.

Makes me wonder how many causes / sources / types of zombies there are in the known Magic multiverse.

TYPES OF ZOMBIES

• Alchemical - I think they're in Magic but can't recall any specific cards at the moment.
• Divine - Binding Mummy , Wildfire Eternal
• Elemental - Skullbriar, the Walking Grave
• Necromantic - Liliana, Heretical Healer , Scathe Zombies
• Botanic - Deathspore Thallid , Slitherhead , Ghoultree
• Surgical - Stitcher Geralf , Stitched Drake
• Technological - Metathran Zombie , Nim Replica
• Viral - I don't think they're in Magic and can't recall any specific cards at the moment.

Did I miss any types? Did I miscategorize any?

Is surgical the proper term? Necroptic?

Viral could be the Phyrexians.

Anyway, Neck Snap fails on two levels: Not all creatures have heads, and the flavor text is 100% wrong: When you snap someone's neck, the cause of death is trauma to spinal cord.

Caregiver

What the hell kind of care do they give!?

Bonny Pall, Clearcutter.. it's cool they did a paul bunyan i guess

but she's being called a "Clearcutter!?" i guess they didn't wanna say "Lumberjack," but either way it cares about getting more lands and having lots of lands, so yeah swing and a miss there

and apparently (only noticed this on second glance)- there's no real trees on this plane i guess, so they're chopping down/ munching on big cactus that kinda look like trees.. uh, ok

also, it's got UU in there, when the card could easily be monogreen
