I've been talking with some people about how best to use the Grixis colors, and I think this will be one of the ways. I was curious what you think about my creature choices. Olivia is a BAMF. She can kill things or take things. Havengul Lich allows me to recur creatures (and it's even easier with my Chromatic Lantern). Vampire Nighthawk will win games in it's own. It gives you a 4-life addition to the difference between your life and your opponent's. Evil Twin acts as any of the non-legendary creatures on my list as well as any creature on my opponent's list. He also acts as removal for any of the legendary creatures I may not like. Snapcaster does what Snapcaster does. He needs no explanation other than he and Havengul Lich are long lost siblings. For other spells, I've given the standard arsenal of Grixis.
With the exception of token match-ups Desecration Demon deserves to be on the list. Constant sacrifice while you can build your own base.

Falkenrath Aristocrat and Thundermaw Hellkite are some hasty aggressive powerhouses you may also be able to utilize.

Sounds pretty solid as a creature base. It is nice that Havengul Lich will able to see some good use. Midrange seems to be the best way to go with grixis. Adding nearly any of the planeswalkers that fits the color base would also be a good addition if possible.
