Interesting idea. You might need more than 7 white mana sources. I would find a way to up the Gempalm polluter to 4

You might be able to recur the gladiator more, but the Gempalms cycling ability is golden.

yes, but exept for cycling I have nothing else to do with Gempalm Polluter and I already get it wat too often in my hands..It works good BTW....it has swarm...biggercreatures, and a lot of slide (22 cards main deck, 15 cards sideboard)

I guess each deck works differently, but my friends mono-black zombie deck has made me fear Gempalm.

I really like the way infestation works in this deck. The great thing about Undead Slide is that it doesnt relly on slide to win. So even if people sideboard in that artifact that stops cycling, you still could do well.

indeed, youé correct on that one, and against other Slide Decks I could use some of my Sideboard cards....BTW there are enough White mana Lands, since besides the three Plains there are also four Secluded Steppe and since only 6 cards depend on White mana and only 10 use it (with amongst those 4 of the lands) I think 7 is more then enough...

I played against a deck like this at regionals (without scourge cards of course) and i won thanks to uber luck. Withered Wretch helps save you from echoes (worst card for slide decks) and gladiator is probally the best Slide activator there is. He had angels and stuff, thus more white.

Having coffers in a deck like this scares me, as theres only 11 swamps. You could cut them for Unholy Grotto, which has some nice synergy with polluter.

well 11 swamps are usually enough, since you need only 4 swamps to take advantage out of the Cabal Coffers and the coffers are in there, only couse it allows me to run multiple Undead Gladiators to cycle / return each turn, and with all the Cycling I'm getting those 4 Swamps pretty easily, maybe I could indeed take one out for a Unholy Grotto's altough I prefer to pull what I need so I don't replace them....the bad thing about the deck is that it can start pretty slowly since there is only 1 Single mana spell, but the overall plays fast since the total average cost is 2.....and 24 lands makes you get that mana pretty fast, plus the fact that you can cycly 8 of them if you dont need them...or just becouse you want to use Slide.....
