I was thinking of trying this too, but I have little to contribute to your setup, it looks great. I'd switch out Journey to nowhere for maybe 2 more llanowar and 1 genesis wave to have the deck all standard tho :)

Ok added clasp and choking fumes (for mass removal with clasp/plaguemaw)
I'm always aiming for mid to late game, I don't like fast decks (neither does the pal's I'm playing with). Yeah Contagion clasp sounds very solid, much better then Plaguemaw probably, or maybe as an addition? If I add blue in there my fiance will go nuts, she hates the color blue with a great fury in magic (I have controlled her too much I guess ;) ) Give me your suggestion on what to remove and what to get in, from what I've seen on your decks you're quite the pro builder ;) But remember mid-late game so no need to be super fast with damage, much rather build up strenght over time. I'll add clasp right now.
Hmm I see you have Avanacyns priests in yours as well.. I'm thinking, maybe replace them with 4 beast within.. Then thats 8 good removals, should be enough? I'm also thinking more of the +1/+1 counters then you, using both Mikaeus and travel preparation and gavony township. It's my hope that with plaguemaw you can start getting really really big hordes, what do you think of that idea?
Why didn't I think of looking at your decks, I'm even a follower of yours ;) I can't afford the swords, lets keep this deck on "low-high cost" if you get my drift :) *keeps lookingat deck* - just had to comment on the swords right away ;)
Ohh I like where this is going :D I got an idea when trying the deck.. How about replacing the massacre worms with Bitterheart Witch. 4 of those and 4 Curse of Death's Hold (instead of Black sun) I'm not sure about the Grave titan either since with Heartless his zombies will only be 1/1 (or die if you have 2 hearltess out).. Hmm maybe: -2 Grave titan -4 Black sun's -1 Phyrexian -1 Mana leak +4 Bitterheart +4 Curse of Death's Maybe? -Please check out my decks and like/comment on them ;)
One of the more interesting heartless decks I have seen :) I really like where this one is going :D - Please check my decks out and like if you like comment :D
One of those nasty decks where you get to have your creatures out, hopefully, while the enemy whither away. I would try to get 2 more swamps and either Avanacyns mask or Swiftfoot Boots in to protect your own creatures from destruction spells. - Please check my decks out and like if you like comment :D
I have encountered this combo, and it was a turn 3 kill on me, first game.. but once you have seen it, it's so easy to stop. - Please check my decks out and like if you like comment :D
Switch Victim of the night to Grim Affliction and Ponder to Tezzerets Gambit, then you got some nice proliferate cards too :) I actually have a similar deck to this at home :) - Please check my decks out and like if you like comment :D
+1 From me for fun deck. It's not always about winning, Decks that are just fun to play are ..well FUN too :D - Please check my decks out and like if you like/comment :D
I tried the same thing but in standard-format.. A LOT harder ><
I like the idea here, but you don't have many zombies to get Endless ranks going, I think sulture would probably be enough for life gain, get 2 more Caravan vigil in and replace the mages with 4 unbreathing hordes perhaps? I don't think you need the BoP's either if you balance your mana right so maybe bring in 2 hideous visage (for breakthrough)?
I really like this deck, but I personally always try to slim it to 60 cards.
Cool, I've been thinking of doing something similar since my full black zombie deck is a bit boring.. I think I'd switch skirsdag for Ghoulraiser ? Just to keep as many zombies in as possible :D Maybe you could put in a couple of Hideous visage to break through with as well?
I like this one :D I don't think the obliterator has a home here though, it gets no benefit from heartless and it's 4 pure black in a 2 colored deck (at least I don't seem to get it out when I try the test-hands) Perhaps switch it for Bloodgift Demon? Will give you some card advantage as well.
Have a look at my attempts of standard mill if you like :) http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=258681 http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=258698 The Grindclock deck works pretty ok actually, I haven't quite finished Headache yet, so I don't know how well it will preform ;)
I dunno, maybe 4 Omen machine and 4 Geosurge and maybe 1 more mirror works.. that looks like the winning combo in here. You might want to get 4 slagstorm to survive early rush? I really like the way this deck is going, infact, so much that I think I will try to build something similar as I have been trying before to get an omenmachine deck to work.. Neer thought of it in combination with Mirror works though.. could work very well.
Ooh not often you see a W/U AGGRO! Really like it, but I was wondering, wouldn't it be better with Automaton instead of Honor of the pure? That way your invisible stalkers and Trinket mages would benefit as well :D
I had the same experience and tried milling as well, works OK but as always milling is slower then infect and anything else out there, but it's challenging and fun :) Check out my 2 mill decks, might give you some new ideas (or not), in either case I like your setup, but you must have a hard time against weenies? http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=258698 <-- Prolifirate Mill http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=258681<-- Mindcrank Mill
