I have been playing monoblack zombies in pauper for ages and I finally am getting around to posting my current list. I'd love to hear people's thoughts.

nice and aggressive with all the low cost zoms. Polluter and gma to land the finishing blows.
I'm curious what is the mainboard pestilence for? Feels like a conflict with polluter and gma, because those two like plenty of zombies to be present.
liking the two lifestaff in the side, looks good against red.

want to play a control deck in modern, but don't have Jace or snapcaster? please come visit us at the Emeria thread
Pestilence is there because of paupers X/1s that gum up the board. The deck has issues handling some decks that try to boardstall us and this allows us to clean up Ux Fairies, elves, all the aggro decks.The Fluff wrote: ↑1 year agonice and aggressive with all the low cost zoms.

Lifestaff is crazy how good it is. I love the card so much.

I see now why the pestilence is there. fair enough.
the +1 power on lifestaff is also a nice bonus. Do we still gain life even if it's a zombie token that died?
oh, and another thing. Have you faced Ulamog's Crusher and Affinity pauper decks with this mono black zoms? Are we favored in those matchups or 50/50?

yea we gain life on tokens and Manifested cards.
as to Crusher decks, I have to pray I have a Cast Down in hand or a large feeder to trade with it. otherwise its a race.
With Affinty it is a race and grindfest that is probably about 60/40 in their favor.

can't really give constructive feedback as I haven't played pauper much lately but I think I'm gonna try something like this. Been super interested in pauper lately
It's not tier 1 by any means but its a very fun, interactive game that plays surprisingly well into some of the more mainstream decks.

I actually don't like playing higher tier decks in pauper, I enjoy the idea of being able to have multiple decks since they're so cheap. One of the stores near me runs a fair bit of pauper so might build this
