I would drop 4 {killing wave} for {mutilate}, as it is a more solid choice, not giving your opponent any choice in the outcome of the card. Maybe mainboard {tragic slip}, and perhaps {crypt ghast} for ramp?
If I sac my own creatures with {Killing Wave} I can just bring them back and be ok
If my opponent sacs their creatures they can't bring them back

They can choose not to sac. With {Mutilate}, they don't have a choice
If they choose not to sac they loose life

And keep their {Griselbrand} or some other creature with way more impact than some life points.
I see your point, but by then they can't afford not to sac
What if they have your board wiped an their own is flooded? They'd gladly pay the life so they could get some damage to you, whereas if you had {mutilate}, they wouldn't have a choice. Also without {crypt ghast} or some kind of ramp, your chances of making a potent {killing wave} are pretty slim.
Anything else?
Anything?
Dude i hate i be harsh or blunt, but you have literally shot down a vast majority of the good advice given to you, whether the points are valid or not. You have basically refused help and kept everything more or less the same as originally, with no feedback as to how youve been doing or consideration/playtesting of the advice given to you. I just dont understand.
How about taking out the {diregraf captains} and replacing them with 4 {Vampire Nighthawks}? I know it's outside the theme of Zombies, but it fits the scheme and has a much better impact towards the ultimately winning.
You already sideboard griselbrand, which is out of the theme.
Yeah I've been thinking about adding {Vampire Nighthawk}
I have been loosing to aggro Boros decks a lot,
Other than that I'm winning most games
If you're losing to aggro, I (and actually I mean WE, considering many people have already suggested it) STRONGLY advise running {Mutilate}. Most aggro decks dont get much past 3/3's and a turn four {mutilate} will wipe the board and it also beats {boros charm}.
Even {Vampire Nighthawk} will slowdown aggro decks because of the fact that it has 3 toughness, most aggro is 2/2 and the ones that are 3/3's they most likely won't want to trade.
I guess I will look into {Mutilate}
Anyone have 3 {Diregraf Ghoul}
And a play set of {Mutilate} for trade?
