Whip of Erebos seems like a nice addition to this deck

@criture: So true, - and Jarad even "deals damage" so i'll get some life when he is throwing a guy, amazing!!! Thanks for the input!

Forget what I just said, he's not dealing the damage... Nice addition though.

other suggestions: Deadbridge Chant for free cards at the cost of some self mill, Massacre Wurm a descent sweeper in creature form, Decree of Pain for big sweep or small for a cycle, and Terastodon for target removal in creature form (better with a follow up sweep).

or instead of Terastodon , you could use Woodfall Primus

May I suggest a Zombie Master that, with Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth would make jarad unblockable?

Thanks for the input, criture and quicksilv297!
Terrastodon, Decree and MASSacre Wurm have been in and out of the deck already but I think I'll try Deadbridge Chant soon. Six Mana looks a lot since I can't influence the Upkeep-Trigger without weakening Jarad / the other big guys but still it could enable some sweet turns.
Zombie Master on the other hand would definitely add some serious oldschool flavor - which I always like - but despite that not really contribute to the overall strategy since Jarad mostly just comes down and throws stuff rather than attack whatsoever.

For the combo with Jarad's ability to drain life I have Exquisite Blood in my Jarad deck...It's nice to deal 5 to each and gain 15... Almost like Gray Merchant of Asphodel It works out well... I would consider also Pelakka Wurm .... And Sidenote: I don't think you can use Crypt Ghast because of it's hybrid Black/White... Someone please correct me if I am wrong... Great deck... :D

Hey Vorinclex2497, thanks for the input. I think I'll try out Pelakka Wurm if I feel like the deck needs more lifegain. Regarding Extort in Commander, there is an explicit ruling around. You can check it out here http://blogs.magicjudges.org/rulestips/2013/02/extort-and-commander/

...like the lifeloss theme. I run a Drana vamp tribal (probably 90% vamp themed) that has synergy with lifeloss/lifegain... your deck might benefit from Wound Reflection (I guess hard to find many that don't) as well as Exquisite Blood/Sanguine Bond (don't have to use the infinite combo, just maybe Exquisite Blood to gain life whenever they lose it). Just some ideas!

Wound Reflection seems great though quite mana intense. I think I'll try it out, thanks for the input!
