A more serious look —Dec. 4, 2014
After much play testing and playing against more seasoned players, I have taken a more serious look at my deck. While it is fun and will continue to be so, it needs more tweaking, specifically to abuse Nekusar and other cards. While I still am not looking to make a straight up Nekusar deck because I like Grixis as a whole, the cards Currently in my maybeboard are under serious consideration. Mind Over Matter with Temple Bell or Otherworld Atlas can make Nekusar the game ender; Bloodchief Ascension and Mindcrank yield and infinite win combo; Dream Halls lets me play my larger stuff by turn 5, and tempts people to also discard for the effect, which I can use to my advantage. I'm looking to take out most of the creature focus in this deck now for this. Let me know what you guys think!

Lands are great. They make mana for free. Seriously though, missing land drops is giving up a lot of power. I think you should run at least 37 (that's on top of the nonland cards you have that make mana or fetch basics.)

m4ver1k I like the idea of Elixir of Immortality for the graveyard cycle, not sure how to fit it in though. So far I have yet to get into a situation where I absolutely need to get my graveyard back into my deck from cycling through it too much. Not too keen on Sorin's Vengeance. It's a good card, but the few life gain cards I have made room for are more consistent and come out earlier. I think with the changes I plan on making as I listed will hopefully help the slower early game I have, if not by speeding it up then by at least cushioning some of the damage.
