Win Conditions:
Liliana getting all the creatures
Oppenents losing life from underworld dreams and Howling Mine
Beefy creatures from the opponent not having cards in their hands

this looks alright no big flaws, but you could also add a couple racks they have the same ability as nezumi shortfangs flip and i think xathrid demon is kind of unneeded in this deck. your just going to screw over you self with creatures

one of the things is tho that Xathrid + Creakwood = 3 damage to EACH opponent each turn

I would take Xathrid and Creakwood Leige out because that is an entirely different kind of deck and it would be hard to get and keep both of them in play at the same time. You could replace them with The Rack as suggested or maybe Hymn to Tourach. I don't think Gleancrawler really has a place in this deck either. Maybe replace it with Nyxathid or Oona's Prowler. Hope I helped.

hmm. u need back up cards, cards that will allow you to "lose" but continue. with this many mobs it would be good to have some artifacts that give u lifelink or deathtoutch. good base but protection decks will run right through you even with the discard effects.

whats up my man, i love a good discard deck, but u r trying to combine discard with some black beatdown here. if u want to accomplish either of these things then u have to decide which to go for and stick to that only. for the discard aspect i would most deff reccomend Nyxathid, Hymn to Tourach, Wrench Mind, wall of souls, damnation, silent arbiter, and the rack

the point of a discard deck is to be able to hurt the opponent while robbing him of having a chance to fight back, so dont worry about dealing big damage with Xathrid Demon or Gleancrawler. those cards r great but made for a different type of deck. u need to be able to have the opponent discard at least 3 cards by turn 3 r u will be in bad shape, that y hymn to tourah, wrench mind, and ravenous rats r such an important part of this deck. and above all else hypnotic specter is a deadly force of destruction. i have seen them win entire games by themself when played right.
