The Crusade

This is my deck project I am working on.

The main idea is that I build around controlling the field and using the crusaders to whittle away at the opponent.

The Curse of Death's Hold and Massacre Wurm are in to maximize the effectiveness of the crusaders' first/double strikes.

The planeswalkers add good control and are a good option when a game goes into 6/7 mana.

The Revoke Existence is in the sieboard for Wurmcoil Engine or other artifacts and enchantments.Doomblade is in if I'm playing artifact creature decks (to replace go for the throats).

Tribute to Hunger is for decks with a high percentage of large creatures or hexproof creatures, which my deck sometimes has trouble against.

The Silverclaw Griffin is for decks with a lot of flying creatures.

The Black Sun's Zenith is to screw with a deck a friend of mine made.

Any suggestions are more than appreciated.

I've changed the idea of the deck. I've been playing it a lot, and have found the best part of the deck is the Crusaders. I've started building my deck around them. Firstly, I'm running 4 of each, instead of only two phyrexian crusaders. I'm putting back the Elite Inquisitor because he works well with the deck theme now. I'm adding Silver-Inlaid Dagger because +2/+0 (or +3/+0 with humans) works really well with First Strike.
