Got a suggestion for you. Why not run Laquatas's Champion and Buried Alive? Drop for champions into the graveyard, then use Balthor and bring all 4 champs out, causing them to lose 24 life. If you are doing graveyard work anyways, another good card could be Mortivore. This deck is really creature heavy, which is fine, but it seems like you have little support to get your main combo working. What happens if people lock down your creatures?

Thanks for the tips! Laquatas's Champion/Buried Alive would be perfect for the deck. I will have to work them in here.

It is a very creature heavy deck. I would no doubt be screwed if my creatures became locked down. Any suggestions?

in my opinion you should loose mabey 2-4 creatures and add a couple more lands to it

Yeah, although I'm hesitant to go over 24 lands. I am only at 23 now, so I'd probably benefit from another.

Hey, I was looking through this deck again and was thinking of other ways you could tweak it. Here are the Balthor and Mortivore decks I run. I had a slightly different version during the Odyssey block and ran mono black control. The Mortivore deck was seemed to do better in block format tournaments becuase it was so creature control heavy. Anyways, take a look at them, it may give you a few ideas of where you could tweak your deck.
