Premodern archetypes that play Graveborn Muse
- Mono Black: A 3/3 for four: in each of your upkeeps you draw a card and lose 1 life for every Zombie you control, and she counts herself, Withered Wretch and Plaguebearer. With a Wretch next to her that is two extra cards a turn for 2 life, which wins long games but adds up against Sligh and Goblins.
