Skinrender x3 -> Myr Battlesphere, Solemn Simulacrum, Vampire Nighthawk

Diabolic Revelation -> Geralf's Messenger

For increased Mimic Vat utility and more Nighthawk to act as a carrier for Lashwrithe

awesome deck dude. i'm' thinking this deck needs some cheaper creatures, that way you don't get swarmed in the beginning. something like Ravenous Rats maybe? There's gotta be some creatures that power up or something when a player discards a card. Venser's journal? I'd switch that out for a 4th nighthawk, still gives life gain with the chance of killing creatures or doing player damage. its difficult to make a good discard deck, especially with all the possibilities. There's definately gotta be something better than Skinrender as a 4 drop. I'd think about Geralf's Messengers instead, or if you can afford it, Phyrexian Obliterator. that card alone wins games all day long. +1

Hi and thanks for the comment

Well I put Venser's Journal to combo with Sign in Blood and Griselbrand. For the same reason I changed the Pestilence Demon to Bloodgift Demon.

Geralf's Messenger is good, I haven't thought of that, although I only have one of them. Unfortunately I have no Obliterators.

I mainly put the Skinrenders as a removal card. The point of the deck is to keep the battlefield clean until I have my heavy-hitters down, that is why I avoid small creatures. I was thinking though to maybe remove the skinrenders and put some Bloodghasts to act as a buffer.

Thanks for the suggestions again!
