B/W is just simply going to be weak compared to the other combinations after RtR. You almost need to have guild colors in your deck to be successful after this rotation. imo you should add red, or switch to Rakdos entirely. I'd refer to any of the many Rakdos decklists here in the forums for card/deck ideas

Don't listen to this guy, Junk Tokens seems amazing! ({G}{W}{B}) Splash some green and Populate your brains out! In all honesty, {Parallel Lives} is a good card, I got my face stomped in by it a few times! You also get that new Manland-esque guy, {Grove of the Guardian}, could you imagine Populating that monstrosity??? Or Populating {Vraska, the Unseen} tokens??? Adding Green also gets you into both Selesnya AND Golgari.

TL:DR;

Add Green and play Junk Tokens!!!
