I am still wanting to work in mikaeus. I just need to work some things around to make him fit. Even if he doesn't work out with vexing the way I would like, he will have good synergy with the rest of the deck.

Though, after looking into some rules, it may not be as effective as I first thought. With different timing I think it could still be cool.

I added undying evil and it has worked great with the vexing devil.

I haven't updated the deck list yet, but I worked in the chalice and the baron. I did it in such a way that I keep the liliana's in my deck. It has worked really well so far. I also worked in some sin collectors. The updated deck should be up soon.

I am definitely going to work in the chalices and the baron. With liliana, I always get to grab the shock forest/swamp when I need it. I want four rhoxes, but I can't find the two more i have.... I will probably just go buy them. Thanks everyone, I think that i am zeroing on someone really cool here.

I have been thinking about adding him and some crypt ghasts for some ramp... Thanks for the input, I think the last two post are going to help me make a deck that will annoy my friends even more.

Maybe nevermore in the sideboard for some control. A forced adaptation on the champion could be nice...

For me the gulidmages are essential as I force my opponents to lose live whenever I gain it. I may try something with the chalices, especially if add the barons.

I like that idea. I also like waiting to cast vexing after I have a blood artist or two out. Most likely they will let me keep him, and then I will put dying wish on him and sac him anyway if I need to. But giving him undying.... I will it out.

This has been a fun deck to play so far. There would be more dual lands if I had them.

I just saw your deck.  Very similar indeed! Is it working well for you so far?

I like debt to the deathless mixed with a rhox and the gulidmage's second ability. I like your idea of adding the baron.  I am currently attached to all of the liliana's at the moment but will drop two for the barons for play test purposes at the very least.  I do like that card. Griselbrand usually come out really quickly for me and I have life to spare for card draws, but if I find my deck going too slow, i will take your advice. Thanks for the feedback!

I have been pretty lucky with this deck so far, though I think that it would be best in casual formats.
