Well I just did some editing and found just through about 20 or so goldfish rounds that I can keep the kraken hatching and still run efficiently. If you check my sideboard now as well you'll notice I swapped out smother for disfigure which I believe will work a lot better for low cost removal anyways because I got doom blade for the bigger things. Your suggestion really ran through and I believe now this deck though still really low budget can work pretty damn well.

I thought that at first as well until I actually got around with some of my mates and we played some games, dropping the stormtide is lethal to most every deck that involves any form of attacking especially with a wrexial in which I got to use my friends burn against him, and in another situation take an extra turn. I was thinking that the deck did need some more black removal myself but I wasnt sure exactly to get out of the way but I shall try removing the hatchlings but I love them as a first turn block, seems to really stop an early rush.
As it has already been stated this deck needs too much work. You really don't need most of these cards, things such as Koth and Diabolic Tutor have no place being there, and things like Shatterskull Giant and Escaped Null should never be used in any deck because it simply sucks. You should really only have things you NEED to create a solid, flowing and consistent deck. Also lands like halimar depths depths shouldn't be used in decks with more than 2 colours because it slows down your mana get and it only gives you one colour. Take a look at my type two grixis deck to get a better idea. http://mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=114203
It doesn't matter if they dont, Grixis is just an awesome powerhouse colour set and you really take advantage of it with this deck. This deck just seems way too awesome
Another reason is that maybe dropping the urge to feed is nice because you beef up your creatures but since you have the blade of bloodchief anyways if you need beefing you'll get it from ditching creatures, hence attacking with bloodghast to make your oppenent want to block him al loose more creatures anyways. Also you shouldn't need more than 8 DIRECT removal spells with that much deathtouch and fast aggro, bloodghast just seems more benificial than -3/-3 with gaining a couple of +1/+1 counters at the cost of not attacking.
Yes every upkeep you would get another precurser golem and its enter the battlefield effect WILL trigger giving you the two 3/3 tokens.
I am aware you have to wait three turns but the point of it is to be a fun deck, dropping a lorthos on turn 4 is just plain hilarious. The deck isnt meant to be taken to seriously but I have played it and suprisingly beat out a stron W/U control, B/U control, and a R/G ramp valkuut. Also I drop wrexial with the Quest, no need to spash black since the deck is type 2 so I cant use those cards and stormtide makes it so 3 of my creatures cannot attack so it doesnt matter too much anyways. It is a fun deck and it is fun to play.
