See Challenge # 124 and my discussion on Purge the Lost.
If we expand the tribes into wedges, that makes Zombies {u}{b}{g}. Well, if I had to choose another color for zombies, green does make some sense.

My first reaction is this looks like a card straight out of Innistrad without any Khans influence at all. But thinking about it Innistrad only had the exile-a-creature cost on blue skaabs, so this is a slight evolution... that and being able to use it offensively, perhaps to deny delve material to the opponent.

In practice of course a mashup set like this would need a bunch of simple cards that only really show influence from one set or the other. Especially at common. But they probably wouldn't be preview cards.

You're right. I don't think any of my cards so far really reflect the Khans influence.
