{terminate} is a good option.
I completely forgot about terminate. Thank you :)

I don't know what creatures should be my win condition. Any help?

Maybe use their creatures,  {Act of Treason}, {Traitorous Instinct}, {Mark of Mutiny}, {Portent of Betrayal}.

A control deck using their own creatures against them. That's a pretty awesome concept. Might as well put a couple {gravebetrayal}s

I'd toss in a couple {Stensia Bloodhall}. This deck has way to many weaknesses though. Why would you need this much removal? You could easily throw in some guys and have yourself a nice little {B}/{R} control going on.

I'm pretty sure the optimal version of this deck is a spell-heavy burn deck that splashes black for {bump in the night}/{Blightning}/etc anyway. Just saying. 'Cause most of the cards you have listed are in standard, and as a burn deck you have a much more realistic win-con while also technically keeping a mountain (pun not intended!) of kill spells.

 {Lightning Bolt}... Why is spear in there?

Why are you not playing green for abrupt decay and Deathrite Shaman? Might as well play BGx.

And  {Liliana of the Veil} is way too good to not be in this deck and  {Abrupt Decay},  {Maelstrom Pulse}, and  {Deathrite Shaman} are all super good reasons to play green not to mention  {Garruk Relentless} is a good way to kill there small creatures and produce wolfs to kill them

Giving up on a deck doesn't help anyone to be an aspiring deck builder.
