Dark Inquiry
Sorcery
Target opponent reveals his or her hand. You choose a nonland card from it. That player discards that card.

Reply to nospamspam722 I considered Arterial Flow but I have too many 3 mana cards so it didn't make the cut, I might change that though. Dark Inquiry is not as good as Thought Erasure .

This deck is spot on. For being a work in progress I have very few suggestions. Arterial Flow is a good card and maybe Dark Inquiry . Awesome deck! +1

If you're going to go Zombies, you need more zombies. This style of play is better suited for Aggro/Midrange play, not Control. Doomed Dissenter can net you two tokens with Open the Graves. Tattered Mummy, Graveyard Marshal, Midnight Reaper and Josu Vess, Lich Knight to name a few other zombie in Standard. Whisper, Blood Liturgist is fine to keep in for his reanimation ability. Severed Strands give you lifegain, but it's minimal at best. I'd go with Vicious Offering since it can handle indestructible creatures. Fungal Infection is a card that I started using and it has been very useful for me. Duress is a better option than Dark Inquiry, is has a much lower CMC and can take care of board wipe cards or counterspells. I'd also looking into a Detection Tower for hexproof creatures so you can target them.

Those are, but after Dark Inquiry you don’t have any mana left to cast them

why wouldn't you just play Doomfall instead of Dark Inquiry?

Ehh.... stupid question, maybe, but exactly what is the combo?
Other than that Dark Ritual is not modern legal.
Some of the cards chosen are pretty weak. Liliana, Death Wielder is not something you can play until turn... hmmm... I don't know... 10? 12? Roughly speaking, you need to draw 20 cards, give or take, into your deck on average to find 7 lands. Wouldn't Ob Nixilis Reignited pretty much do the same, but better and cheaper? Or maybe, since you are playing BW vampires, either Sorin, Lord of Innistrad or Sorin, Solemn Visitor would be even better yet? Their tokens would certainly go well with the vampire special abilities.
Speaking of vampires: Gatekeeper of Malakir is a nice, and budgetfriendly, addition. Removal with a body, and with a relevant creature type - what's not to like? Besides, you have some really underpowered creatures, like Sanguine Glorifier (4 mana for a 3/3 creature with a very low impact special), Dire Fleet Ravager (lifeloss is ok, but only if you are REALLY sure that you are going to be ahead) or Exultant Skymarcher.
Lands: there are SO many other lands, you could play, both for utility and mana fixing. Isolated Chapel, Vault of the Archangel, and Shambling Vent are pretty good ones.
Why play Luminous Bonds over more regular removal? Is there any situation, where you wouldn't rather have an extra copy of Path to Exile? On the same note: Vanquish the Weak is terribly overpriced - Fatal Push is a lot better, or Victim of Night if you want a cheaper card.
A bit of 1 cmc targetted discard could also be good - a bit like Dark Inquiry but from the first turn. You could try Inquisition of Kozilek or Thoughtseize, or Duress if budget. Play a full set, so they should replace Cleansing Ray and Dark Inquiry.
