Languish and seismic rupture would also send their greetings.

Man, you REALLY gotta even out your color curve.

You're running Mardu colors, so I would look into some Khans stuff. Ankle Shanker, for instance.

As it stands right now, you're gonna get hammered by fast/rampy/aggro/control decks. You need to get faster, because as soon as I see Kaalia, or Tariel as commanders, I'm going to automatically assume you have Iona and Avacyn in there. You become my target immediately. You need a way to survive until you get your wincon out. There's so much lifegain and protection stuff in W/B (even artifacts: Witchbane Orb, Orbs of Warding, Eternity Vessel, etc..)

I'd look into Wight of Precinct Six, Malignus and Scourge of Geier Reach for creatures. Maybe Grave Titan (for tokens), Sidisi, Undead Visier (for sacking tokens to tutor good stuff) and Phyrexian Altar (for colored mana ramp).

Maybe Rise of the Dark Realms for that late game bomb/wincon.

Hope that helps! :)

Not so much "weak" cards, but cards that are killing your mana/color curve.

I have a particular hate for Iona and Avacyn, but that's just me. Besides that, I don't think you need those two to make this deck win. Also, Skirmisher, Dawnbreak Reclaimer, Emeria Shepherd and Reya, Dawnbringer.

I would focus on tutors, specifically Rhystic, Enlightened, and Idyllic. Anything to get your Exquisite Blood/Sanguine Bond combo out.

I would also swap out Rune-Tail with the Iroas god of Victory. Same basic effect, but much harder to destroy.

Drop Assemble the Legion, and put in Athreos, God of Passage.

If you want to keep Desecration Demon relevant, find a way to untap him if an opponent taps him.
Defiant Stand (instant, but a nasty surprise for an opponent thinking the demon won't be able to block)
Hope and Glory (instant)
Inspirit (instant)
Jandor's Saddlebags (artifact)
Puppet Strings (artifact)
Staff of Domination (artifact)
Thornbite Staff (equipment)
Thousand-Year Elixir (artifact).

There's also Master of Cruelties you could think about.

Last thing for now, reduce your lands to 35. I know it might seem low, but I run no more than 34 in all my decks, and I very rarely get mana screwed.

Maybe i'm just unlucky, but whenever I run less than 36 lands in commander, I tend to get mana screwed :P
Thanks for all of your help and advice! I really appreciate it :D

No problem.

The main thing I wanted to convey was to lower your overall CMC, and even out your color curve as much as possible. If you want, jump over to my profile and check out my decks. I'm not a pro, but I don't build bad decks. I also pride myself on finding obscure cards that nobody else plays with and finding spots for them in my builds that make them work well.
