Opening is graveyard amulet.
Following turns really depend on opponent (will go into more detail later!)

If you are using Graveyard then why not take Plague Zombie and Sacrificial Altar to use as the eternal servant? Its a synergy I have thought of personally and not ever used.

Personally, with skeleton books I always take an armory. But that might be just me, since the gencon winning book didn't have one and still won a tournament.

Any thoughts on the rest of the deck? ;)

Also, as a suggestion i would say drop 1 to 2 dissolves. You have disarm which can target range 2, that works to your advantage. But you have 2 cloaks which means of they get rid of one you are going to run and cast the  other. You should not be close enough to the enemy to cast all 4 or have time to cast all 4. I have also played many necros and had both elemental cloak and cloak of shadows in my book. The elemental cloak is super useful but 10 times out of 10 i ran the shadows. Shadows and meditation means you are gonna hang back.
If you drop 2 dissolves, the ele cloak and 1 wall then you can add: 1 more tanglevine for positioning, 1 theft of life, 1 curse of decay (works in a mirror match (: ) and 1 more leather armor.
I think i mathed that right.
But thats my 2 cents

*edit - a curse item might help too instead of dissolve since its range 2 as well.*

Thanks a ton!
I have so many dissolves becasue tanks are really hard to beat. I don't have a cloak, just a elemental wand. Curse item would be nice, will look into it!

Ok. I misread that then
And tanks are tough but 2 dissolves, curse item, and disarm should be plenty. You could have idol of pestilence for good measure against a tank. Forces them to you and then you can react accordingly.

If you are really worried about a mirror match though consider curse of decay Nd chains of agony

You could probably drop 1 deathfang as well. Once they engage fast is pointless

Lastly, blood demon is great and all but a gravikor will give you a lot more against flyers
