This archetype is based on rapidly getting Zombie World on the field, and then combining multiple minor effects to reach huge ATK numbers in exchange for a lack of Special Summon support.

Decent cards but is limited to very specific type/Deck of monsters so unless your playing something like DNA transplant your at a massive disadvantage this deck nowadays could not compete with probably any deck or even decks of maybe 7 years ago

1.the ATK gaining is very low and too slow to matter and most monsters will barely become a decent beater

 

2.The life point engine is very slow gaining 200 life points per monster sent wont make much of a difference 

 

3.The lack of special summoning makes the archetype extremely slow and hard to set up zombie slaying pilot 4 wont be able to activate its effect as they cant waste a normal summon 

 

4.Having them stay as warrior type monsters is a nice touch but how about a field spell that makes all monsters your opponent controls zombie 

 

5.zombie slaying soilder 4 can rise up to a alright beater but requires set up which is lacking from this archtype 

 

6.you Should include cards that negate zombie effects in the graveyard and stops them from being summoned from the graveyard maybe once per turn

 

7.Zombie Slayer's soda is actually a very good card and good protection which is why maybe you should include something like a fusion or xyz archtype monster could support these cards.

 

8.Have monsters that can special summon themselves or other monsters and monsters just being beatsticks does not always work and is not a good game tatic

 

overall i like the idea of the archtype and seems like it could become potentially very powerful

These are quite good points, and I thank you for the feedback!

However, as an answer to #4, the field spell "Zombie World" is an already printed YuGiOh! card that turns all monsters on the field into Zombie-type and you cannot tribute monsters except Zombie-Type monsters, which is the main way to use the archetype. I'll make some additions to the archetype in the next few hours hopefully to quell some of the other issues.
