Demons, Disease, and Discard.

The idea is to win with Shrieking Affliction, or if that won't work, use the rats as chump blockers and sacrifice fuel for the more powerful demons. Ring of Xathrid prevents opponents from gaining control of Treacherous Pit-Dweller.

I have spot removal in Murder and Ultimate Price , but I wonder if I'll have trouble against artifacts and enchantments.

There is also a chance that I'm overlooking some good Morbid cards. Tragic Slip is one, so is Gruesome Discovery , though it's somewhat expensive for my tastes. I've also just learned about Underworld Connections.

Finally, I'm considering swapping Black Cat for the Drainpipe Vermin , just trying to decide if the extra mana is worth the random (as opposed to chosen) discard.

I'm just learning as a deck builder so any comments or suggestions are appreciated! I plan on adding sideboard cards as I playtest other decks. Thanks for looking.

PFB Removal and other Card Swap — Oct. 17, 2012
Edit

From playtesting and thanks to some of the comments I've received, I've made a few changes:

Swapped in 3x Black Cat for 3x Drainpipe Vermin. I love the Vermin for the 1 drop, but the additional Swamp needed to trigger the discard on death was causing problems when wanting to use the Vermin as sacrifice fodder for Demonlord of Ashmouth on turn 4. For that reason I'm switching mostly to the cats, plus they have the added benefit of discard at random.

This one I'm not entirely sure on, but I removed 1x Murder and 1x Ultimate Price in order to make room for 2x Bloodgift Demon. There were a few times in testing where I desperately needed to draw additionally late game. These help that situation as well as get me more demons for the scrolls.

Finally, I've sideboarded in 3x Mutilate and 1x Cower in Fear for PFB creatures.
