I'd like your opinion for this deck. I have to get a few cards to finish it off, but think it may be a good one.
http://deckbox.org/sets/97654 is where you can find it.
Do you think it needs any adjustments? If so, what would you recommend for substitutions?
Thanks. ;3
I feel bad because I am going to shred this deck. But, hopefully, you'll see my reasoning and appreciate U/B Zombie mill from another perspective 
First off, I LOVE this deck concept. I am completely enamored with Undead Alchemist and Endless Ranks of the Dead. Wow, I would not be across the table from that!
So, looking at your deck I see some things that concern me. First of them is Endless Ranks of the Dead; it creatures zombies during your upkeep based on the number of zombies you have in play rounded down. That's an important distinction because you only have 8 zombie cards in the entire deck. All other zombies you can create have conditions that you aren't always going to be able to meet (e.g. having other zombies already or your opponents having creature cards on the bottom of their library).
If I were your opponent I would let you cast all the Endless Ranks of the Dead you wanted and just kill the handful of zombie creatures you cast. You'd probably have a rough time putting together a legitimate threat in that case.
My recommendation is that you drop Deranged Assistant, Onyx Mage and Vault Skirge for zombies to help the cause.
My next concern are the ancillary cards like Runic Repetition , Grasp of Phantoms and Graveyard Shovel. They don't have any real synergy with your two win conditions which is either "Zombie Mill" (Undead Alchemist and some zombies) or "So many Zombees!" (Endless Ranks of the Dead without Alchemist).
So, here is a link to all the U/B zombie cards in Standard right now. http://deckbox.org/games/mtg/cards?f=47 … !b31!793.2
From that list I like Stitched Drake and Cemetery Reaper for your build. The reaper works very well with all of your strategies; the drake is a little concerning because it needs to be "fed" and you might not always have something to feed it. Maybe more on that later...
I also like Gravedigger, Geth, Lord of the Vault and Skinrender for the deck.
Lastly I would like to see the deck get some draw along with a way to feed the Gravedigger and/or Stitched Drake so I think you shoudl run a full compliment of Forbidden Alchemy.
So, the final list could look something like this. http://deckbox.org/sets/100944
I look forward to hearing your thoughts on my suggestions.

Thanks for the ideas, I'll take a look at them as switchers. :3 I'll be picking up a booster box at my local card shop the 21 (after picking up LoZ: Skyward Sword and a new Wiimote) and seeing what we (that is ShadowHand and I) get out of it, the dynamics may change a lot. :3
Oooh! Skyward Sword! I can't wait.
Good luck on your box and thanks for responding.
Got my booster box, and only got Mindshriekers that wold help, and a Trepanation Blade or two.. 
So I scrapped this. Now I'm working on a different style deck.
I'm more interested in how others view my Dark Souls deck. Heck, I just bought sleeves for it (and clear for my flip cards), and am redesigning my deck box for it (using my own custom artwork) to fit the sleeves.
