Removal is the name of the game. Lots of ways to take out creatures, pick apart your opponents hand, and a lot of sideboarded graveyard hate. Creatures in this deck have all kinds of value.

Mainboard

Creature Removal

Victim of Night targets most creatures, one of the best removal cards out there.

Dismember Good removal tool. Can get rid of most creatures fairly cheap.

Unmake Hits pretty much everything for three mana. Great card.

Gatekeeper of Malakir This dude is valuetown. Removal and a 2/2 for three mana. Can't beat it. I tend to hold on to him so I can get max value.

Hand Hate

Inquisition of Kozilek This hits pretty much all of the control cards that might give me problems.

Thoughtseize Best control card in black.

Wrench Mind Decent card, nice to use once I've picked their hand down.

Graveyard Hate

Bojuka Bog Talk about value. Destroys graveyards

Card Draw

Underworld Connections Speaks for itself.

Win Conditions

Wicked Akuba Can be so destructive late game with its ability.

Abyssal Persecutor Good card and I have plenty of ways to remove it.

Phyrexian Obliterator This is a lose/lose situation for your opponent. Unless they have direct removal handy, they are in a bad situation.

Vampire Nighthawk Flying, Deathtouch is good, but what really makes him shine for me is the life gain. It can do a lot to save you in close matches.

Sideboard

Sideboard is mostly graveyard hate and some stuff to deal with artifact decks.

Extirpate Good targeted graveyard removal.

Vampiric Link For dealing with Eidolon of the Great Revel.

Geth's Verdict More creature removal, just in case I need it. Also good to get rid of my Abyssal Persecutor.

Duress Some decks need their hand picked apart more.

Haunting Echoes This just isn't far. This can wreck an entire deck.

Mutilate Just another way to deal with creatures. More for aggro.

Pithing Needle For dealing with those pesky cards I can't remove.

Ratchet Bomb Another one for difficult to remove cards, but takes a few turns.

So this deck has proven to be far to slow for the Modern format. As it is now, it cannot handle any kind of competitive deck designed for turn four kills. It needs a lot of work and I don't know what to do besides scrapping it and just copying a top 8.
