Wonder why there is no marsh flats in this deck??

Some other key things I want to get into this deck
- without the combo potential do I still need seasons past? I think I fill the bin up enough that it's a good recursion spell.
- MORE LANDS - an echoing deeps, a simic growth chamber, possibly a petrified field, and maybe I need another way to protect lands from exiling/grave hate? hell maybe I straight up run teferi's response lol
- maybe I do want to run eerie ultimatum / some big card advantage enchantments? I dunno
- More cycling lands! fetid pools and maybe the black cycling land, I dunno.

it is possible that this is indeed a zombie infestation deck and maybe lazotep chancellor as well. With the cycling land package chancellor could be really good.

I think what I want to do with this deck is add a small planeswalker package and shave some of the infinite combo stuff. altars go out for cryptolith rite and song of freyalise, tutors go out for more draw stuff?

Could add some more crime effects (since a lot of my lands do crimes, maybe add maze of ith) and add the crime that makes a zombie ? (gisa the hellraiser?)

if I do cut the altars I will need to add some more sac outlets! if I want to run Liliana Dreadhorde anyway

bridge from below could work if I went deeper on self-reanimating creatures

kalitas might be good
fiend artisan is a pretty cool one that synergizes with the mana

I should probably add dakmor salvage and possibly drownyard temple (man that would be good with squandered resources)

cut reshape the earth
add blossoming tortoise

2024-02-23 - update
cut retreat to hagra, elvish reclaimer (who I have just played enough of)
add awakening, trade routes

Combos:
* nether traitor, tormod, phyrexian altar (plus a drain outlet, after infinite thrasiosing)
* splendid reclamation, squandered resources,seasons past (and thrasios into stuff, or tormod into infinite zombies) [[ note: currently don't have squandered in there ]


The core of what I want to do with this deck is play enchantments and make zombies. I want the zombies to pay for a crapload of Thrasios activations. The issue here is that Thrasios doesn't work amazingly well with Tormod, but does with Field of the Dead. So gotta figure out the tension there. Maybe lots of crucible effects so that once I get the lands out I can play them from the bin a bunch to make more tormods triggers.

I think opposition, earthcraft, cryptolith rite are the core pieces of winning from there. If I have like 40 zombies and an opposition stuff is pretty hard for opponents. But maybe I could just win?:P

Maybe I could play some aristocrat effects--meathook massacre and bastion of remembrance both drain on dudes dying.
