Thanks for the suggestions. I made some modifications. Cut some creatures and more targeted cards. Added in some removal and removal hate, with counterspells.

Played it for the first time today (with my IRL group). Board kept getting cleared every time I built up any Zombie presence and so Endless Ranks of the Dead became a dead card on my board. Might just be that I'm playing things too general instead of concentrating on a particular Zombie theme. If I had to double-down on a particular style I'd probably back Token/Mill and play off Scarab God.

I did run out of cards in hand at one point not too far into the game, so I was also considering getting more draw and search in there. And maybe some more removal too.

Any recommendations should keep in mind I'm trying to keep it within reason price-wise. So nothing that comes in at $100+ and nothing that'd tip it over around the $500 mark, which for this should be easy since it's not even at $250 yet.
