A modern-legal revamp of an ISD-RTR standard deck.

I love switching from early-game aggro to direct life loss if the mid-game is reached. Being able to steal games through trickery is just as important as having a competitive deck. All the discard, grave play, and sacrifice effects let me sneak wins by surprise. I don't want to lose the soul of this deck.

I'm concerned I don't have enough zombies to make Gravecrawler effective. Currently, Blood Artist is swapped for Diregraf Captain, and Bloodthrone Vampire could be switched for Nantuko Husk. That would solve the zombie issue, but bump the curve up a bit.

I also need to fill the sideboard. I don't know what my local meta is like yet, so low-dollar, general answers are preferable for now.
