Thank you so much 44hydra44!
Funny thing with the Inkmoth Nexus's, I always confuse Inkmoth Nexus with Vault Skirge. I guess I must have put those in the deck by accident.
Raven's Crime looks really cool I will sub that in as soon as i get my hands on some.
Thanks again !!

Ive been tinkering with something similar for a couple months now. Id suggest atleast 3 lashwrithes, its such a bomb in this deck, Ive been running 4, though mainly because I run more evasive threats then your build and attaching it to vampire nighthalk is solid way to race other aggro decks, the life swing is just insane. I run bloodstained champion as opposed to gravecrawler. withering wretch is also very good against a large number of decks. you need more disruption, I run 3 augur of skulls and 2 mimic vats, and some other creatues that have profitable come into play effects, and 4 duress in the SB. they may belond in the MD but ive had them whiff a couple too many times on t1 due to some decks being so creature heavy. Also, full set of gatekeeper of malakir. its just tooo good not to play, only time is sub par is against tokens, and even then it still gets reasonable value typically.

If you make more build more creature heavy, dark prophecy can be good, atleast in a build looking to take advantage of devotion with gray merchant of ashpodels. besides that, there is only phyrexian arena, and while strictly better, they are like 6-7 tix, hence why I haven't bought them yet either lol. Better using sign in blood or ambtions cost.

you can play 22 swamps and put in 3-4 sign in blood. my curve is similar to yours and has worked well for me so far. more than 22 and your getting flooded, mostly because you ill typically get path to exiled most games atleast once, often more (maybe its just the people I play)

Great deck so far! I would cut Vault Skirge for Bloodghast. Bloodghast is a reusable threat and that is the sort of thing you want in a deck like this.

Well done! +1. I agree with the previous poster about Bloodghast > Vault Skirge, but it looks like you're making budget decisions.
I would also drop Geth's Verdict for more Victim of Night.
And maybe its personal preference, but I prefer Desecration Demon to Abyssal Persecutor. I like being able to win the game without to draw removal.

Also, Disciple of Bolas seems underwhelming. Pack Rat is great for that late game top-decking place that it seems you have Disciple of Bolas in here for. Bloodsoaked Champion might be another option for re-usable threats.

Like the deck. Thee idea of playing dicard in the first few turns then proceeding to attack in with beaters is a very interesting and useful strategy.
I would recommend taking out the Inkmoth Nexus as your deck is not infect and there are other ways to win that won't require Lashwrithe. I would also take out the Underworld Connections as it is fairly slow and sets you up for a two for one if your opponent has a Tectonic Edge, Ghost Quarter or some other form of land destruction. I would drop the total number of lands to 22 as your spells are fairly low costed and you won't need or want to draw into them late game. Raven's Crime is a great budget option that will turn all of your disappointing land draws into another discard spell. I would also add four of The Rack and Shrieking Affliction as they stack up a lot of damage later in the game. Finally I would put a bit more removal in as you will need to be able to deal with anything your opponent does play. I hope you consider my suggestions and have fun playing this deck, +1.
