Updated Black/Green Delirium deck for use at FNM. Advice/Tips more than welcome!

I designed this with quite a few paths to victory in mind, pretty much all require hitting Delirium by T3, but so far I haven't played a single match where that didn't happen:

Grim Flayer is the quickest, most obvious, and easiest way to start picking away at my opponent,

Delirium + Blighted Woodland + Traverse the Ulvenwald = Emrakul, the Promised End by T6 if things work well,

Mindwrack Demon + Verdurous Gearhulk = a pretty big, heavy hitting flyer with trample by T5,

and if things get really funky,

Scrapheap Scrounger + Ishkanah, Grafwidow and her babies can feed Westvale Abbey   to make Ormendahl, Profane Prince and cause some real mayhem.

I also feel like Pulse of Murasa is way overlooked in Delirium decks as it keeps me alive and running against spell heavy decks while I work my big swingers into the game. It's already saved my ass a couple of times in specific match-ups.

And then, of course, Sinister Concoction , Grasp of Darkness , and Harsh Scrutiny all give me some quick and cheap removal to keep creature-heavy aggro decks at bay.

Again, any advice is welcome. In particular, I'm interested in the community's thoughts on whether Noxious Gearhulk is useful or not. I can always stick one in and use Traverse the Ulvenwald to cherrypick him when ready.
