Here is my 6th Gods Unchained F2P Deck Guide, this time on Zoo Death. You can check out my collection of F2P deck guides here @meltysquid/gods-unchained-f2p-welcomecore-deck-guides. Leave a comment for the next decklist you want or any cards I should go over more.
Death is the hardest god to build for on a budget. The Welcome and Core cards are too situational and the card pool lacks enough cards with a common strategy to build a cohesive deck. The creatures are on the weak side and the spells are only good in specific circumstances. Your best bet is to run hyper-aggro Zoo Death with all the cheap creatures you have and hope you go first. I advise not to run a F2P death deck unless you are looking for a challenge.
Zoo Death is a hyper-aggressive deck that uses its cheap creatures to hit face hard and fast and finish off the opponent with reach from self-damage cards like Bombfly, Brimstone, and Soul Burn. The deck hopes to catch opponents with their guard down. It runs out of cards very quickly.
For aggro Zoo Death always pick Soul Burn. You need the extra reach to close out games.
Blood Ritual isn't useful in this deck, and Neferu's Sacrifice is too slow at 3 mana.
Look for your strong cheap creatures like Skeleton Heavy and Void Banshee in the opener. You want creatures early to start beating in.
Mull away your late-game cards like Bombfly, Brimstone, and Possessed Acolyte. They are more useful later in the game.
The deck has one strategy, the face is the place. Use your creatures to hit the face as much as you can. Sometimes it is better to kill an opponent's creature if it keeps yours alive. Late game you can use Bombfly and Brimstone to get in the last couple of points of damage to finish off your opponent.
Generally, in the early game, you want to play cards to get tempo instead of spending mana on your god power. Later on, use your god power as much as you can so you don't waste all of your cards.
If you're are just starting, here is a Welcome deck, an upgrade over the default starter deck. Check out gudecks for the card descriptions and other decklists.

Once you've won some weekend ranked reward Divine Order Packs, you are better off changing into a zombie deck. You can check out my deck spotlight on Zombie Death here. It is slightly outdated but Zombies haven't changed much. I go over the deck, playstyle, and card choices.

There are a couple of other different archetypes for death. The most popular death deck is zombies which aim to swarm the board with zombies. The deck is relatively cheap to buy costing less than $50 since most of the cards are from Divine Order.
Board Wipe Death is arguably the strongest deck in GU but will cost you an arm and a leg to buy the cards. The deck has sleep to stall the game, ramp to get to their big threats, draw to keep their hand full, game-ending big monsters, and plenty of board wipes.
OTK Zombies uses Corpse Explosion to blow up a board of zombies and deal your opponent tons of damage. The deck is inconsistent and runs several off-meta cards that aren't cheap.
