Thanks much man, those are all solid ideas that are matching up with experiences of playing this deck over the last week.

This deck is only good for a one-on-one playstyle and uses an awful commander to make the game less fun. I would give it a thumbs down if I could.
I would like any ideas for getting this combo out quicker or making it more effective. Thanks.
Ok, so I was actually thinking about replacing the Sangromancer and Painful Quandary with Diabolic Edict because I was still feeling too bare, however I did not see Guiltfeeder when searching the Vault. Just trying to play out the turns in my head though, and with the limited amount of land I am putting in my deck I feel that The Rack would work out better. You can very easily start applying damage with it by turn 3, and in a lot of scenarios by turn 2. Plus when I have gone thru proxy draws here I am not getting 5 land out until later than that in most cases. And I honestly would use Ravenous Rats when I buy this deck instead of the Corrupt Court Officials (8 dollars vs 17 cents) so I think I would end up leaving the Specters.
Ok, so that is all spot on. I took those suggestions and ran a bit further with it taking out the Temple Bells, Volgraths Stronghold, two of the Painful Quandary cards to get it down to 60and speed it up a bit. However I have to admit I feel almost too bare with that setup, so I pulled out a Sangromancer and added 3 Corrupt Court Officials that should add a bit of blocking while not sacrificing a discard. Willing to spare any more thoughts?
Thanks for the tip. I was thinking that it may be too slow, but wasn't sure. Liliana's caress is a two drop though, so do you mean that it's too slow to have an Impact as its only two points per discard?
