I've worked pretty hard to make this deck as good as it is! But is there anything you'd say I'm missing?

A good idea would be to add {sword of feast and famine}, and {hellkite charger} for infiniate combat steps :p

My son plays Kaalia and I have spent a bit of time tweaking his deck. The deck is pretty vicious and really fun but I am not sure that I have 100% cracked it yet. I like a lot of the cards in your deck. What do you feel are your "all-stars"? 

There is some overlap between your deck and mine (to be expected) so I will just highlight some of the cards that I have found really useful.

General Utility

{Emeria Angel} / {Linvala, Keeper of Silence} - I wanted something that could come down fairly early that wasn't 100% dependent on my General (getting Kaalia tucked is pretty bad).

{Bogardan Hellkite} - This usually clears a blocker but can sometimes finish off someone who is low on life. I am never unhappy to see him.

{Whispersilk Cloak} - More expensive than {Lightning Greaves} but it gives Kaalia Shroud and allows her to attack into a clogged board state. For the record, I am currently running Greaves, Cloak, and {Champion's Helm} to protect Kaalia but I am considering replacing the Helm with {General's Kabuto} because it provides much of the same utility as the Cloak.

{Platinum Angel} - This was added recently at the same time as {Avacyn, Angel of Hope}. Even without Avacyn in play, it has decent synergy with the Shroud/Hexproof equipment.

{Kagemaro, First to Suffer} - He is just an efficient removal spell. At only 5 mana, he is still very playable without Kaalia.


Reanimation Subtheme

{Reya Dawkbringer}/{Debtor's Knell} - As soon as one of these come down, everyone at the table stands up and takes notice. They are completely degenerate if they live even a single turn.

{Unburial Rites}/{Beacon of Unrest}/{Karmic Guide} - Reanimation is not the primary theme of the deck so I am only running three single-target reanimation spells. That being said, these three are pretty saucy.


Graveyard Fillers

{Demonic Collusion}/{Faithless Looting}/{Peace of Mind} - Peace of Mind has felt weak but the other two have been golden. Demonic Collusion with buyback is both a tutor and a graveyard filler.

{Cauldron Dance} - One part reanimation, one-part graveyard filler...wholly awesome.

For Consideration

These are cards that I want to add but haven't had the time to play with yet:

{Twilight Shepherd}
{Deathless Angel}
{Aegis Angel}
