First, I should mention that my group mainly insists on playing giant 8+ player games so I'm aiming more for maximum salt mining power than actually winning Also, I built this based on cards I already have/have access to and I only have the 1 Grave Pact unfortunately.

Can't believe I forgot about hidden stockpile though! Good call there. Your other suggestions would force me to curve out a little higher than I really want tho. I had considered Vicious Vampire as a top end with Sorin but decided I wanted to keep the land count relatively low. I'm already concerned about how mana hungry the deck will be with all of the creature recursion costs but I'll see how it goes this weekend.

I like that idea... I may cut the blazers since they are only there for card draw but I've seen the sovereign do to much work not to keep at least one.

I'm envisioning this deck to be more of a Pass > Go type of deck where a lot of cycling gets done at the end of the opponents turn.
I feel like having more cards that CAN cycle at EOT is essential for triggering the Archfiend and the Curator, not to mention more power for the Vile Manifestations.
As far as the enchantments go, depending on what you go up against Drake Haven (against control) or Faith of the Devoted (in multiplayer) might be better.
The sideboard is also a mess as I have only general suspicions of what this might be weak against.
Deck is still very much a work in progress. This is just a jumping off point.

Yes, Ethan's comment basically explains what happens with Zada and Mirrorwing on board at the same time.
Both cards say whenever you cast an instant or sorcery that targets only Zada/Mirrorwing, make a copy of that spell.
The copies of the spell are not being cast so they don't trigger an infinite loop.

@ma7
 I thought about Brute Strength but Rush of Adrenaline does essentially the same thing for 1 less mana.

Technically speaking, Chandra's Ignition WOULD be a reasonable board wipe with the combo pieces in play but I feel like this deck wouldn't be able to recover from a wipe like that as fast as the decks where a wipe like that would be needed (Bant Company or Spirits or Ramp).

I do like Moonlight Hunt but on a clear board, it's a dead draw. I think I may like the Fiery Impulse route better.

I hadn't thought of Impact Tremors. It's a fun idea but I think damage to the player is going to be more than covered by the sheer number of wolves after a few turns.

I think I need something for targeted removal against cards like Avacyn or Emrakul. Rabid Bite would have been awesome if it didn't require two targets

Ahah!
TYVM for the clarification NH3Maser... I hadn't tried to play this online yet so I didn't realize that.
Any good suggestions for a replacement?
I thought about Prey Upon originally but it looks like that has the same problem.

Might I suggest some <a href="http://cards.deckstats.net/magiccard.php?lng=en&card=altar+of+the+brood">altar of the brood </a>?
Totally works with the rest of your combo.
Mill can help get rid of potential threats.
Also a good target for the ensoul artifacts

Did some tweaking but still want to keep Nirkana and my planeswalkers in.
