Ha, auto correct... usually, I never fall victim to it.
I used to have Go for the Throat in the sideboard, but I took it out, because, like you said, it's meta dependant, and my meta didn't need it. If I were to take this to a higher event, I'd definitely put it back in the sideboard, just in case.

Lingering Souls is very good against affinity and other decks that just want to grind out card advantage or one-for-one you (like Jund). Very good as a one of in your main too, so you can do a value rites package for something like: Snapcaster Mage , Lingering Souls , Gifts Ungiven and one of your board wipes.
I don't think i'd be unimpressed with receiving any of these two in my hand.
If i was on the other side, i'd bin snappy and gifts, but wrathing and then making dudes still seems solid.
You could play a one of Think Twice too. Which is probably better in that package than a wrath (unless you need to make up some tempo all at once of course).
You probably also need a 3rds wrath. Either DOJ or Damnation depending on how you feel about your manabase.

i actually took out DOJ, as I was never really in need of it in my meta.
I can't really argue with your points on the other suggestions, I played againsta BUG gifts list on Tuesday that ran white for souls, and it seemed to be pretty effective.
I've mostly been playing pod lately, so when I get around to coming back to this deck, I'll take those suggestions into consideration.

Cool deck! I'm a huge fan of Esper gifts, and this is a great take. +1.
I guess it's sorta meta dependent but it seems like Go for the Throat is much better then Doom Blade . Especially if you're dedicating a whole three spots to it.
Also just thought you should know, Rites, not Rights. In your description you have Unburial Rights
Anywhoo, good luck!
