I see you have mono blue, red, and white decks, but no mono-green decks.
I understand you're only into protesting injustice when it affects you.
you obviously just don't understand the need to...
I agree that wizards really shoehorned the blue zombies in. While I can respect the idea of an occasional blue lich lord type zombie I think things got out of hand in innestrad when the hordes of brainless mono blue zombies came into existence. The golden rule of magic that blue gets everything was reaffirmed when it conquered the tribe that is in direct opposition to it's most basic strategy of mental magic and trickiness. I enjoy some color shifting, but it becomes dumb when the color shifts outnumber the better combination from a flavor perspective. We now have way too many blue zombies.
The real driving force here is the color pie. BG Zombies are only often available in sets with enemy color support. Fortunately with Theros, wizards seems to be moving in the right direction with random enemy color support where it makes sense from a flavor perspective. What they really need to do is have sets where enemy colored support is dominant not just equal. Only then will combos that really make sense like BG Zombies have adequate card support.
ps. Shards block unearth seems forced in blue and should've been a green ability: it's creature based and involves haste which is more green than blue. This would've given us more green zombies since that block had a few grixis ones.
pps. Thraximundar should be green instead of blue: +1 counters are more green than blue.
ppps. Innestrad should've been Vamps-BU Humans-UW Zombies-BG Werewoves-RG Spirits-WR Reasoning Vamps are way more U than Zombies. Humans are tricky/wizardy. Spirits are fickle chaotic.
I have a question involving Derevi, Empyrial Tactician:
If I have Derevi in play and attack with multiple creatures, they go unblocked and I get multiple triggered untaps, can I target the same permanent multiple times like Arcanis the omnipotent and use arcanis's tap ability in between each untap trigger? Or do I not have a chance to respond to each trigger.
