Based off of feedback on the above list, I streamlined it to pretty much take out all Rock components and basically be a slightly modified version of Sultai Shadow decks seen all over. The biggest change I made was add Varolz, the Scar-Striped such that you can scavenge your dead Death's Shadow on to any of your creatures (including Creeping Tar Pit) and then slam for pretty much lethal with Distortion Strike. Of course, it should be pretty straightforward to splash in Temur Battle Rage as most Sultai Shadow decks do - take out 1 Overgrown Tomb and 1 Misty Rainforest and put in 1 Blood Crypt and 1 Polluted Delta/Bloodstained Mire, take out 2 other cards and add in 2 Temur Battle Rage.

I'm hoping to get feedback on this deck as well - any notable cards there should be more of? Any cards I'm forgetting at all?
