Completely overlooked lifelink on Brion... Changes made and updated!
Permalink
I looked at him, and his ability is great with what I'm wanting to go with, but the blood artist dealing damage/healing per creature death seems almost too good to pass on. Ideally I'd like to find more black undyin to make the blood artist a more viable addition. I will definitely keep Brion in mind failing that.
I highly recommend Adding a few Knotvine Paladin to the deck for a primary striker. It takes the exalted bonus and practically doubles it. It gets out of hand fairly quick.
I completely forgot about the Panorama cards, nice catch. Keeping the cost down is always a plus! I could have sworn that I put in Lightning Bolt instead of Blast. I completely agree that the extra damage is not worth the mana difference. Must have been on my mind when I imported. Putrefy actually is more along the lines of what I was wanting anyways (Not to mention the huge $$ difference) . I'm not incredibly familiar with a good deal of the cards out there. Another great catch. As for the Deathbringer Thoctar: I can think of a few instances where that would come in very handy. Thanks for the input!
