I need some help making this deck a little more viable for current standard. It works more than 70% of the time, but then loses in the stupidest of conditions. Sideboard needs work too. Thanks!

in the main i would drop: 2x Dismember 2x Go for the Throat 2x Redirect 2x Swamp then add: 1x Foresee 4x Preordain 2x Island 1x Rachet Bomb being able to Scry and Draw should help greatly.

maybe even Tezzeret's Gambit instead of Foresee.
I'm going to run some Ratchet Bombs. I can't afford to get rid of GFTT, but Redirect must go.

Wow.... Pretty Messy deck you have there... So: -2 Memnite -2 Phyrexian Revoker (stricktly sideboard card) -4 Vault Skirge -2 Hex Parasite ( Go against a valakut deck with this ...) -1 Massacre Wurm -1 Tezzeret (if you want him to work, then make this an artifact deck and not normal control) -1 Sorin LOL what is he doing here? he is rubbish (ok not rubbish, but too high mana cost, doesn't worth it, even less in a control deck) -1 Marsh Flats -1 Misty Rainforest -8 Swamp - 1 Dismember -2 Doom Blade (sideboard it, worth nothing against monoblack control, or any black centered deck at that matter) -2 Redirect (it's good on limited but rubbish in constructed. Can pull you out of some bad situations, but is just not good enough) +1 Wurmcoil Engine +1 Grave Titan +1 Island +2 Drowned Catacomb +4 Darkslick Shores +4 Creeping Tar Pit +2 Tectonic edge (can be more if you feel like it) +4 Ponder (this isn't a control deck if there is no ponder in it, cause preordain isn't T2 anymore) +2 Despise +2 Distress +3 Inquisition of Kozilek I suggest you check some high ranked UB control decks on the net and see what u need. Also put spellskite from side into main, remove Islands Vedalken Anatomists, Dismembers, maybe add mental missteps, Black Sun's Zeniths or Memoricide. This was a tournament quality evaluation, so if you just want t build this as a casual deck, then disregard some of my "expensive" advice. Also when adding cards, try to focus on getting a lower mana curve.

If you don't have enough cards to fill in the space with I reccommend Vampire Nighthawk, and some more Counters (srsly dude, you NEED more counters in a control deck than a measely 4 mana leaks.). Also, If you feel like it you can check out my mill variant of UB control. Thanks!
I forsaw some additions from the Zendikar block, but since they'll be phased out of T2 soon, I'm staying away from them. As for the expensive cards, if I can trade for them, or luck into them from packs, I'll definitely work them in as per your suggestions. Thanks!
This deck has some solid players, but some dont make the cut in my opinion. The day after I bought Sorin thinking he was useful, I banished him to the rare binder. He doesn't protect himself, he costs a bunch, and obliterator/wurm makes him look like a joke. My opinion, focus on spot removal and incorporate more tactics like mimic vat to "steal" what you kill. Check out my deck and let me know what you think :) http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=214492
Sorin was mostly a placeholder until I settled upon a better Planeswalker. Mimic Vat is a possibility, I'll see what I can do with it before I main deck it permanently.
