Fetish Army - Golden Runestone - Devoted Following - (decrease cooldown to 50 seconds) - 38 sec cooldown after passive
Big Bad Voodoo - Crimson Runestone - Slam Dance - (give 40% damage in addition) - 90 second cooldown after passive
Zombie Charger - Golden Runestone - Undeath -(if zombie deals killing blow, spawn another zombie, repeat up to 8 times)
Wall of Zombie - Crimson Runestone - Creepers -(3 zombies spawn instead of a wall and attack enemies)
Passive Skills
Zombie Handler - 4 zombie dogs -- dogs + gargauntaun get 60% more life
Tribal Rites - Reduce cooldown of fetish army and big bad voodoo by 25%
Piece the Veil - 20% more damage but 30% more mana cost
Strategy
So the strategy here is to have 4 zombie dogs + gargauntaun up at all times. The zombie dogs are doing aoe fire damage (and the closer they are to each other the more fire aoe enemies are taking) and the gargauntaun has a 700% damage cleave. In addition to those pets you are casting Wall of Zombie (Creepers) that spawn zombies to attack for you. Endless pets, barely in danger.
You are summoning your Fetish Army every 38 seconds. Soon as you pop your Fetish Army, pop big bad voodoo. You now have a certified zombie / fetish army consisting of melee dps, aoe dps, all with increased attack speed, casting speed, movement speed and damage buff.
When things get hairy, cast your zombie charger. With the Piece the Veil passive you should be doing a large amount of damage with it, getting tons of killing blows, and spawning tons of additional zombie chargers.
This build works well when grouped with monk and barbarians. All of the party shouts and auras will form one solid zombie fetish army!
From what I've seen of the witch doctor, zombie charger doesn't seem like a very good spell at all. It's range is very short, it moves quite slow, and it doesn't do as much damage as other spells. It seems like a shotgun spell that is overshadowed by plague of toads. It's not that it wouldn't work, it could be amazing with that rune in it and with enough attack. Overall it just seemed like a mediocre spell to me. I hope Blizz makes it so that any spell can be a viable damaging spell. Other than that, the build seems pretty awesome.

My place really was here. I was too foolish and stubborn to notice. But, what I truly hoped for then was here. Why do I always realize it When I've already lost it.
I don't know, depending on how wide and fast they spread out, zombie charger indigo could do quite a bit of damage.
Yea this is really a spell were going to need to wait for. If it ends up getting lots of killing blows and spawning tons of extra zombies then it will be well worth it..

The idea behind this build was to have a pure summoner / zombie / fetish 'chaotic' type of build.
