[mwcard=DNI06]1 x Zombie Frenzy[/mwcard]
[/spells]
[cost]Total cost: 120 pts[/cost]
[/spellbook]


Attack Spells:
I tried to have as few attack spells as possible while maximising utility. Force hammer, surging wave, and acid ball are all extremely versitile so that's what i went for.
Conjerations:
Pretty much a standered pack here. Tanglevine is so good, all decks need at least 1 imo.
Creatures:
Solid creature pack. Brutes are so good for their mana cost.
Enchants: Lots of enchants. I use transfusion and or arcane ward to protect regrowth rhino hide etc.
Equip:
Solid equip. Note, 2 cloak of shadows is too much since if they dissolve the first one you can't really get away. And it's not worth 4sbp.
Incantations:
Yes I have 4 dissolves. Becasue it does it's job better than anything else, that's why i went with it. Disarm is form war gauntlets or galvitar.

Notes:

Deathlock might be cut since i have 2 regrowth's.
Animate dead might be nice if i find the sbp!
Hope you enjoy!
The Phoenix shall rise.

Wow, this looks an awful lot like my zombie necromancer...

One thing I'd try to fit in are a couple of Lesser Teleports and a Force Wave. For instance, you could buy those for the price of one (regular) Teleport.

I assume the Transfusions are for moving curses from one target (immediately before it dies) to the next (?).

I find it hard to justify Surging Wave over Swell when you're mainly looking for the Push effect. I think I have 1x Swell and 1x [mwcard=MW1A09]Jet Stream[/mwcard] since the latter can target Flyers.

And I have more Tanglevine, some walls (2x Bones, 1x Poison Gas), and less armor, Dissolves, Dispels. Oh, and my healing comes mostly from Siphon Life / [mwcard=MWSTX1CKI01]Drain Soul[/mwcard], which I would try to play relatively early (mid-game), then drop Deathlock. Of course, it depends on the match-up. Deathlock comes out a lot earlier against Druid/Holy mages, in which case those healing spells (incl. Regrowth) are dead sbp's.

The wave is mainly used for it's slam effect. Flyers are a big issue, gravikor might be in order? Deathlock is kind of counter intutive, more poisoned bloods would be better I think.
