Thanks for the comment, it's great to hear that. I hadn't looked at Killing Wave actually, I think you're right in saying I should run it and DOJ in the SB, I recently put a ratchet bomb as well in there, so I think between the three of them, I should have enough board sweepers. If that is ever possible...

Phyrexian Metamorph is a useful sideboard card. It can help deal with stuff like Elesh Norn or Sun Titan. I don't know about your metagame in the US, but in the UK, the best decks I've come across are control decks that finish with Sun Titans with Phantasmal Image and Elesh Norn, getting them out quickly with Unburial Rtes thanks to all the discarding cards like Faithless Looting and Tibalt etc. Ideally, you can hose those decks with Nihil Spellbomb or Grafdigger's cage, but it's always nice to have another answer. Hell, I run them maindeck in my current standard deck: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=340268 and they work out great. At the very least they can give you another Paladin or Kessig Malcontents, and at best a Sun Titan or Griselbrand...

That is a really good idea, I'm bringing stuff back from the graveyard all the time, so Urabrask is really useful. I also think I need another Bloodgift demon, now I need to figure out what to take out...

because that is one mana that i could spend on any number of 1 drops in this deck. Life is a resource too, and with vendetta, i am spending it to save mana

Invincible Hymn, and Amulet of Vigour are not as useful as wrath or consecrated sphinx, in my opinion at least

EDH decks with not a lot of creatures should have as many board sweepers as possible. I'd try and find room for wrath of god (better than Day), All is Dust, and others. Also, Ulamog and blightsteel colossus really ought to be in every EDH deck. Blue Sun's zenith for some recurring card draw, spells like confiscate or mind control, and possibly, if there's room Jace Beleren for more card draw, and consecrated sphinx for yet more card draw.
For this sort of slower, control type EDH deck, card advantage is the main advantage that you'll have over other creature-heavy decks (like mine)

That is the one issue that comes up, but generally when i do get some draw, i get a lot of draw. Momentous fall, soul's majesty, and new garruk's -3 ability can draw me a lot of cards, and the amount of ramp really thins out the lands. I generally only lose when i don't get any card draw, but if i do it's pretty unstoppable

Caress of Phyrexia is a great finisher for this sort of deck

Geth's Verdict is better than Gatekeeper of Malakir, unless you find yourself with a need for blockers, but with this deck you should be killing every creature they play before they have a chance to attack

If the Spell Pierces are there to counter anyone trying to counter your combo, then surely Dispel would better? it's a hard counter, unlike Spell Pierce, and while situaltional it will stop mana leaks, lightning bolts, doom blades, go for the throats, etc.

This deck is absolutely broken by the way, thrumming stone and door of destinies is horrible

Mass Polymorph is insane with Allies, although it works best with Halimar Excavator, it would still work in this deck, since each ally enters the battlefield at the same time, they all go off for eachother at the same time

looks good, but if you're enchanting lands you should use arbor elf rather than llanowar elves

Fling+Mark of Mutiny/Act of Treason is a glorious combo, try and fit 3 or 4 Flings in there
