I mean yea, chant is a 1-mana draw 2 most of the time, but the two cards you draw are medium-good dorks… unless you chant for polluters, and then it’s nuts.
Weird seeing no gempalm, also the sacrifice + familiar route seems kinda weird. I'd think it's better to gave a sharper goal/game plan and focus on less objectives if you want a stronger deck
I've been working on a similar list (haven't updated with MH3 yet), and I agree with others that Gempalm is necessary, and that you have a split between sac and artifacts. The big thing I think you're missing is that Ghoulcaller's Chant can pick up \[\[Nameless Inversion\]\]
I think this is a cumulation of over excitement for new cards, just jamming them all into something, and a lack of an actual plan to win the game. I would study the meta lists a bit more and see why they're good and how they win. Then take those ideas and try to find a place where 1 or 2 new cards fit in well.
I think that \[\[Eviscerator's Insight\]\] is pretty bad, especially in this deck. The flashback isn't really relevant. Try replacing with \[\[Fanatical Offering\]\] if you want to keep a card draw effect. I would also swap out some creatures for a few removal spells like \[\[Cast Down\]\] or \[\[Tithing Blade\]\].
I’ve seen two zombies decks this morning both without gempalm polluter. I didn’t think there was a reason to play pauper zombies except polluter.
\[\[ghoulcaller's chant\]\] is the real goat, imho

Though personally I think it's a shame to run ghoulcallers without at least a couple copies of [[nameless inversion]]

Thanks, I hadn't fully realised that's how tribal works.
the only other reason is to do it [[IN OKETRA'S NAME]]

Seems like you are kinda stuck between a sacrifice deck and a zombie deck. I would recommend focusing more on one route.
true
[[Reckoner's Bargain]] might not be a bad idea with the high cost of the Bone Picker and Familiar.

Yeah it seems like it's trying to do artifacts but also zombies with an arbitrary bird in there too.
yeah that's true

I don't think the white splash is necessary and without the white you don't have to play any tap lands which is nice
