Help a newbie create a MTG black deck?

[Andrew1]

My friend got me hooked on Magic The Gathering a few months ago, and we've been playing nonstop. Now Im not the best player out there, but I want a cool/good deck of my own that I can have some fun with. I'm interested in creating a zombie deck (aggro or control) but don't know how to get started. Any suggestions on cards? I like monsters like drudge skeleton and noxious ghoul...

your deck entirely depends on which cards you have already. if you have enough zombies to make a decent zombie deck, go for it. it looks like you have access to older cards, where zombies were better than in newer sets. you can probably also google some good zombie decks, but unless you already have a bunch of the cards or are willing to spend some money you should stick to what you have.
my friend plays online and he has a really cool blue/black unearth deck that is based around crypt of agadeem. basically you play things that force you to mill your library into your graveyard (like hedron crab, tome scour) and most of your creatures are creatures that unearth for really cheap. to win, you tap however many crypts you have, maybe unearth a fatestitcher to untap one of the crypts, also play/unearth a kederekt leviathan to clear the board before you unearth your entire graveyard and take your opponent out in one turn.
