I'm really debating with myself if I should add some draw / mana maker.

Like the concept but if your about infect "pingers" then why not have Virulent wound?

You have 3 Phyresis. If you need to turn the creatures you have into infect creatures, wouldn't you want 4? I do see that you have 4 tainted strike but that goes away at end of turn. Tainted strikes are most likely to be countered over the Phyresis. That and facing Mental Misstep is a fast way to counter tainted strike. Note: Mental Misstep is appearing in majority of the competitive control decks. I have it in my green blue infect deck.

Also in the new set there is a Skirsdag Cultis and he reads "{R}, {T}, Sacrifice a creature: Skirsdag Cultist deals 2 damage to target creature or player." That may be a cheaper alternative than Molten-Tail Masticore. can also be used in conjunction with Molten-Tail. since you sac the creature for cultist and remove the creature for molten.

There is a lot here for death touch, but i would focus on either death touch or infect (since your about infect, i would say that one).

Lashwrithe is also a good final straw with infect or a a creature with infect.

Next thing i see is the cheapest mana casting with the possibility of infect is Vector Asp. Spikeshot eldar is good for 1 mana but you would need 3 after that to have him ping.

Livewire Lash will work great here. Attach it to creature, pump creature up, throw 2 infect right at opposing player. There is a black pump called Dark Favor. that would give +3/+1 to a creature. That would be a good pump with infect. Best part is it is an enchantment which means it stays.

I am not trying to destroy your concept or degrade this deck because the concept is sound but if you cant get enough infect as fast as possible, once a control deck gets stabilized, you will not be able to touch them.
