Digging The Hole has more versitillity against other decks but it takes a fair amount of luck to pull it off and you have to be careful and watch out for counter spells or creature destruction when you do get it.

I really like the look of the bottom deck..but I think if your going to be running heartless summoning you'd need a Titan of some sort...personally I'd just scrap the heartless summonigs and maybe throw in some heavy duty burn spells ? Devils play could work seeing as you get the mana

You do realize that the whole deck is based around the {Heartless Summoning} combo to produce infinite mana right?
That being said, I might just take you up on the Titan suggestion.
