    Nice list! If I may offer some suggestions, I'd say swap Victim of Night for Doom Blade (with Bob on a heavy decline and DRS gone, it hits just about everything now), because the double black can hurt you with Mutavaults. Smother is also a good option. Cut Relic, 1x Victim, 1x Wrench Mind or 1x Bitterblossom (meta dependent), Sacrament, and 3x Swamp for 4x Raven's Crime, Torpor Orb, and 3x Urborg. Raven's Crime might seem weak, but trust me it's very, very strong. I detailed why here, if you're interested in reading http://www.mtgsalvation.com/forums/the-game/modern/budget/545104-8rack-control-the-hand-control-the-game?comment=23

      Thanks, I appreciate it! In my original build I had the Raven's Crime/Dakmor Salvage combo then took it out when doing other iterations - I should try it again now though that the deck has changed.

    The Sorin is an interesting choice!

    I prefer Nyxathid for my win condition in black control, as it's better on defense than the Rack, though it does preclude Ensnaring Bridge. Then again, the Bridge is another blank against most combo decks. In either version, I'd advocate a few Nezumi Shortfang and 4x Howltooth Hollow.

    4 Inquisition of Kozilek
    4 Disfigure
    4 Wrench Mind
    1 Doom Blade
    4 Funeral Charm
    2 Dismember
    2 Nezumi Shortfang
    4 Liliana of the Veil
    4 Nyxathid
    2 Raven's Crime
    4 Dark Confidant
    3 Relic of Progenitus
    1 Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth
    4 Mutavault
    4 Howltooth Hollow
    13 Swamp

    Sure, have creature-based removal makes your win con more vulnerable, but you're making them discard their removal spells anyway. And mine is an old list. 2x Relic is probably fine in this meta, and some number of Bitterblossoms would probably be good.
