Fun, and for only 42 mana (21 blue, 21 black) you can kill your opponent without other zombies...

This... isn't a legend? Wow. I don't really know what to think. Mirror Entity+tokens galore seems like the obvious choice, but it's probably too mana intensive.

I have a feeling decks that use the first ability aren't going to be using the second one much.

Gets deadly with Shepherd of Rot pretty fast.

Importantly, the second ability doesn't require tapping; if you wind up playing this guy on turn 7 or 8 and don't have anything else to do with your mana, it's a nice bonus, I suppose.

That is a whole lot of zombie lords we have to choose from. Do zombies have the most now?

Wow, this card does not dissapoint. I'll play the card for the first ability but I love it for the second haha, good for wizards for going the extra distance and putting in something casually awesome on an already pretty sweet card.

It took me a long time to notice his right hand. I kept think he had an awesome bone-tooth thing for a forearm, but I was wrong. SADNESS ENSUES

So 2 zombie lords in this block to make up for the utter lack of zombies in Shadowmoor and Eventide? Is that how that worked out???

On topic: MUHAHAHHA, i love this dude. As for why its not a legend, that answer is obvious....its a zombie lord. You don't make a zombie lord a legend. What i really like about this guy is not only is he efficently costed, but he goes in two different decks. Weee fun!
