Definitely superior to The Wretched. Zombies have much better tribal support than Demons, and Dread Slaver can use its ability on the defense as well.

It's been said in part, but I run this guy in a G/B rampish zombie deck with Death Baron along with Prey Upon and Ulvenwald Tracker. It's pretty effective, though that might just be because Recurring Nightmare is in it as well lolz.

Only real problem I see with him is the 3 power. Best fix is to give him deathtouch, increase his power, or use removal to kill a creature surviving an attack from it. I like Cemetery Reaper or Death Baron to increase his power and toughness permanently, any kind of Giant Growth type effect for a temporary. I like Quietus Spike to give the deathtouch. Make your opponent decide between giving you his creatures or losing more than half his life. Removal is pretty obvious and up to your preference. I wouldn't say he's a great card, but he can be with very little assistance (and the assistance he requires is very versatile), I think he's definitely underrated here. Unlike Sengir Vampire, his effect is worth the effort.

trying hard to play this in a mono-black EDH deck, since it's got such flavor -
how about equip with Lashwrithe and really make them chump block?
problem is, most of our EDH games have too many tokens, which fizzle at the graveyard...
