Hello I am looking for suggestions for a tier 1.5 deck any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks!

Bloodghast returns easily and adds two to our devotion

Dismember is very good spot removal that can take out most early game threats

Gatekeeper of Malakir adds two to our devotion and also makes our opponent sac a creature

Geralf's Messenger is a very aggressive creature that adds three to our devotion

Grave Crawler returns very easily and is aggressively costed

Lashwrithe scales and can make our own creatures bigger

Thoughtseize is just incredible all around

Phyrexian Arena let s us draw an extra card, had to put this in instead of Dark Confidant since I'm on a budget

Profane Command can deal massive amounts of damage and return Gray Merchant of Asphodel when paired with Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx

Gray Merchant of Asphodel can finish off opponents when played with the right things on the board

Phyrexian Obliterator add four to devotion and prevents bolting it with its sac abilities
