Well, I just like my rares to be under $1 :) (if you are thinking of Falkenrath Aristocrat )
I've kept a single Disciple of Griselbrand (not infinite but close) for that but I might just test Falkenrath Torturer :)

Flayer of the Hatebound enters the battlefield from a graveyard while you have another one on the battlefield. Its power is 5, ability triggers twice (one for each Flayer). That makes 10 damage, not 20.

Flayer's power is 4 and two triggers would be 8 to the opponent.
However you don't just target the opponent, target themselves from both triggers, then damage to the first one resolves,he dies, undying goes on the stack, he returns, two triggers go on the stack (2 x 5 dmg), resolve, then finally the damage to the second Flayer resolves, he dies, undying goes on the stack, two more triggers go on the stack (2 x 5 dmg). That's 20.

Ok, sorry, I misunderstood the combo. I said 5 because I was thinking about it entering the battlefield with the +1/+1 counter.
Now I'm thinking of ways to exploit that combo, like: 2 Flayers with +1/+1 counters on them, Killing Wave for X=0 and then card:Faith's Reward.

Huntmaster of the Fells Flip ? Getting even just one those back presents that much more of a problem for your opponent.
I think Cathedral Sanctifier is more cute than anything. You could easily make the swap there.
Also, why no Shock-lands? They would only give you stability and more mana-fixing.

Thanks for the input!
I would play all the cards you mentioned but they are too expensive. I sometimes go 3-2 or 4-1 with this deck and that's ok.
Currently I play those cards instead of more expensive ones:
Falkenrath Torturer instead of Falkenrath Aristocrat - It doesn't have flying or indestructibility but sometimes it gets infinite counters
Flayer of the Hatebound instead of Huntmaster of the Fells Flip - it's not exactly a substitute as it is in the different slot and it doesn't impact the board at all at first but it is a win con that sometimes go off and it does work with card:Angel of Glory's Rise ability. I though about Azorius Justiciar but they don't really win games, at least not with my deck.
Cathedral Sanctifier - I actually played card:Avacyn's Pilgrims today but it felt underwhelming. Sanctfier is often better (against zombies). I also consider Azorius Arrester as it ETB effect might be important sometimes. Without Sanctifiers I went 1-3 on todays FNM (that one win, not bye:) so I don't know
So I might do some changes but I'm not spending more than 5$ on a single card.

Where the hell did you buy Woodland Cemetery for $3? Link, NAO.

Maybe you could switch Borderland Ranger for Farseek for a cheaper mana ramp

The thing is that Farseek is another sorcery that can get put in graveyard by Grisly Salvage and Mulch . Also Borderland Ranger puts the land on hand so you have something to discard with Faithless Looting
I could go this way, also changing Cathedral Sanctifier s with card:Avacyn's Pilgrim and vampires with Disciple of Griselbrand but I don't think it will save me against aggro decks (where rangers and sanctifiers provide some blocks)
I'll try that online, thanks for the feedback!
