Deck discussion for Mono B standard

I would suggest removing the exarch for tezerret's Gambit
I think in most situations, this is good against a number of aggro, but may have some difficulty against other kinds of control, in my opinion, plus with sign in blood, you can rush your deck so hard you might have to choose how to beat the guy ;D

Entomber Exarch have to options either discard or get me back my other creatures. Tezzeret's Gambit is not good against aggro decks

Exarchs should definitely be dropped, the only good one is the blue and only for the combo. Vess could prolly be dropped as well but she is still decent for tutoring and whatnot. honestly though, you NEED Gave Titans. Simply put, Grave Titan is one of the best cards in standard now. Also, why you no play vampire nighthawk?

I would also suggest replacing smallpox and geths verdict with some discard like inquisition/despise, hell even Mind Rot. Anything to get rid of those pesky blue counterspells or fatties that will be dropped on you.

Entomber Exarch is pretty decent. and done it's work many times. I don't NEED Grave Titans. He is good but I prefer Wurmcoil Engine cause of none color and artifact. Smallpox have been running in most black control decks and is a really strong card against control and aggro. Despise is the worts of all the discard cards in standard right now. Geth's Verdict is really strong and helps a lot against Thrun, Swords and so on. I don't see why I should play Nighthawk when I can play a Vampire that removes a creature when it comes to the field
