Alright, so after some playing, here are my suggestions:
Less Dark Deal - I know that sounds weird, but just take one out. You have enough discard besides it that it really only works once.
Treasure Cruise -2 or Jace's Ingenuity -2, because there's a bit too much delve and besides you already have some serious card draw through Waste Not and Erebos.
Murderous Cut - 2 and Hero's Downfall +2, for two reasons: Downfall hits planeswalkers, and Murderous Cut uses a bit too much delve. Between that and Treasure Cruise...
Whip of Erebos + 1 or 2. Not for the reanimation, but for the lifelink. With cards like Erebos, God of the Dead, the fetchlands, and Thoughtseize, you come within pretty good range of burn and aggro decks (while playing against an aggro deck, I actually got myself down to 12 or 10 with my spells alone).
But, to conclude, this has been a really fun deck to play with! Nice job!

FAMOUSWATERMELON I really appreciate the feedback. In my meta, the current set up works best for me. I like having the additional card draw because i dont always get it from waste not. I am considering Fascination in place of jace's ingenuity because it gives my opponent a hand to discard from if they are top decking. I have to run 4 dark deals because its a major factor to this decks success. I must play atleast one if not two per game. Hopefully i didnt come across rude. I definitely appreciate your feedback and your suggestions are great. But i like the way the deck runs right now in my current meta XD. I went 11-1 today, and my buddy and I went 6-0 in 2v2 match ups with him playing a mono white soldier deck lol. i had like 10 zombies by turn 4 one game.

No, of course you didn't come up as rude! Fascination is fabulous in this deck! Dark Deal, fill the hand up, and do it again. Ouch. Happy to see that this build works out for you! Good luck in future matches! (Also, you got me into this type of deck, definitely making one of my own!)

Wow thats awesome! XD glad i could inspire you. I almost considered going esper at first but i couldn't make it work. I was wanting to build it with sorin and banishing light lol. But DIMIR ended up working best for me XD Lol

Oh, just thought about this. As an alternate win-con, maybe Empty the Pits? Then send your pile of lifelinking zombies over to say hi.

Yea dimir works best imho. mono black is neat too but i wanted to go a different path. lol
January 29, 2015 6:43 p.m.
btw, the delve works well even though it looks unlikely. Dark deal dumps my hand into the yard so it fuels the delve quite nicely. Ive only almost milled myself once but ashiok saved me lol. i stole a Scuttling Doom Engine swung for 6 and murderous cut him and dealt 6 more damage lol

crux is good but if im running into problems with a large field presence, ill use Whelming Wave and its one mana less and it bounces creatures to their hand allowing me targets for my discard spells. Thanks for the suggestion greenkingwashere XD

I run a green devotion shell with villainous wealth, my local shop won't let me play it anymore. I always am able to cast one for X=15+. everyone gets mad and just scoops.

Nice deck. Ive been thinking of reviving my old standard u/b control so this is giving me a lot of good ideas.

Does Ashioks first ability trigger waste nots discard? Trying to figure this out.
January 31, 2015 10:48 a.m.
Redhorn, glad to have inspired you. No ashioks +2 doesnt require them to discard unfortunately lol. I run Ashiok to hopefully steal thier creatures from thier library and exile potential threats to my deck. lol
January 31, 2015 12:49 p.m.
xandrox, thanks. I suppose if Ashiok did trigger waste not then that would be op as hell.

reverendvile777 and sttmccln thank yall for your time and suggestions. reverendvile777 you make a really good point with the 8 one drops, I could cut 2 despise i suppose, and cut the innistrad, but im not comfortable with cutting Ashioks or Lilianas... Pearl lake is good and i like him better than torrent elemental so i will consider adding him. Treasure cruise is a must have, and the deck isnt geared torwards reanimater. lol i use whip to lifelink our zombies bc we get lots of them. ill side erebos for agro match ups but my meta runs alot of lifegain decks currently. Thanks again guys.
