Hello! I love the base idea of this deck and I find it quite fun to play, Congratulations!
I made some tweaking on the original deck you posted and, although it is still an off-meta deck, it is still very fun and kind of competitive at Rank 4, in which I find myself now. I have currently won 2 major games: one to an Spell Hunter, taking him to fatigue unable to hurt me although he was on DK form, and another one to an Odd Warrior who had to concede since he could not take Undatakah out of the board, once the combo was set.
This is the deck code, in case you want to give it a try (I am still refining it):
like your idea. Dont know if i agree with the Tirion Fordring and the Ooze. Weapons mostly include value, this deck has infinite value so i dont think its needed. Would rather see the sunfury protector to give the undatakah an guaranteed taunt. I prefer one banker to secure the Undatakah value, if your only one gets silenced your game stops 😛
Oh and i played my deck at rank 4 and lost almost all games except the control games, because of the infinite value :D. Liked the deck although i lost most games xD
Good points! I will accommodate the deck according your feedback. 🙂
I am still tweaking this deck to get more consistency. Tried adding two Corpsetakers because they have synergy with Crystalsmith Kangor.
What is the exact order I need to play the cards? I got my Undatakah dead (not summoning itself) in one of my latest games despite he took the Deathrattle effects of the Prelate, Vanguard and Tirion, and I am not sure why.

I am playing this deck quite a bit and I now understand why sometimes it does not work. Basically, if undatakah takes first the deathrattle of the silver vanguard and THEN the deathrattle of the immortal prelate you are screwed. So, not only the combo is difficult to make, but then you also have the 50% possibility that undertakah doesn’t work and just returns in the deck.
Now that I raged a bit because I really hoped to have found a meme deck to climb the ladder with and it’s all gone, I can suggest a way to overcome this problem. The secret here is to play the immortal prelate two times. Then, Undatakah will take its deathrattle two times making very unlikely not to get the combo out.
You are right! Thanks for the clarification. You could add a Tirion Fordring for a 3rd Deathrattle effect. Not only it just has synergy with Silver Vanguard, but also (I think) it increases the probability of the Silver Vanguard Deathrattle effect being taken after the Immortal Prelate’s by Undatakah.
Anyway, I agree it is not a very consistent deck (but quite fun, nevertheless).
Damn… My friend had it once and we both said like wtf this is bugged. I guess this was the reason…. We found out so late because you normally always get your immortal prelate out (mostly more then once) before adding your vanguard deathrattle. But nonetheless the funny win condition is not consistent anymore 😛
for more consistency, I’d add call to arms… Then having so much spells, shivalah might start to make sense to keep you alive, and then lyra of course to maximize value.
I’d remove annoy o module and hammer for this, as well as the two bankers, who don’t reallymake sense with call to arms, leaving room for kangor / tikal / tarim (reset button) acording to what you see
when you played 2 out of the 3 deathrattle cards (and they died), killing da undatakah will put one in your deck and immediatly recruit it (since its the only 8 cost card). It also keeps enhancments so if you see the possibility to give it taunt it just keeps on popping out, super funny xD
You need to play Silver Vanguard while you have Undatakah in-hand; you just want it to die so that its deathrattle is in your history. Then you play Undatakah, and its battlecry pulls 3 deathrattles from your history–hopefully at least Prelate’s (shuffle a copy of this 8-mana minion into your deck with all enchantments) and Silver Vanguard (recruit an 8-cost minion from your deck). Unless it gets silenced or transformed, the net effect is “resummon this minion with all enchantments, including the deathrattles to resummon itself”.
Most people will also play Sunfury Protector on the same turn as Undatakah to give it taunt, so then it effectively becomes an infinite-health taunt.

This version looks a bit more consistent:
AAECAZ8FCLnBAufhAv37AqCAA72GA+aGA86HA4uKAwvcA/QFrwf2B5vCAojHAuPLAu3SApboAtn+AuyGAwA=
Corpsetaker has synergy not just with Crystalsmith Kangor, but also with Shyrvallah and Zilliax. so it looks a very good addition to the deck.
By the way, if you are open to play some friendly matches, feel free to send me an invitation. My Blizzard ID is Ryosuke#2471. 🙂

yeah i just created this out of the cards i own. I dont own shivalah lyra call to arms etc. i would add the 2 mana legendary with lifesteal also
Why silver vanguard? If you recruit it then the battlecry doesn’t activate.
Undatakah still has the deathrattles because it keeps enchantments.
when you played 2 out of the 3 deathrattle cards (and they died), killing da undatakah will put one in your deck and immediatly recruit it (since its the only 8 cost card). It also keeps enhancments so if you see the possibility to give it taunt it just keeps on popping out, super funny xD

fun deck, could be somewhat competitive with some tweaking
What would you tweak?
I ask because I just opened an Undatakah, and I’m looking for something fun (i.e., NOT taunt druid or deathrattle hunter) and reasonably affordable.
