Was looking for a new deck to build when I noticed some really nice synergy with some of the cards. Please take a look and tell me what you think. Any suggestions are appreciated. Please explain your suggestions though so I can follow your logic. Thanks
Manaforge Cinder isn't necessary at all. You don't really need THAT much color fixing in this deck. Drop it and maybe one Bloodmark Mentor (another card I don't see as being too necessary despite its synergy with the Grimblade) for 4 Lightning Bolt. Bolt is just a beast of a card even after 16+ years.
I feel like Shambling Remains should find its way in here somehow. An efficient creature with a cheap unearth cost. The drawback is minimal in this type of an aggro deck.
@powerslave: Manaforge's primary use is a B/R 1 drop. You're right though. I've never really used him for mana fixing. The Bloodmark Mentor is there because I'm a huge fan of first strike. Shambling Remains was seemed really nice at first. Unearth especially but not blocking became a real drawback.
@shinigami: No grave hate.
@abhi: Want dual colored creatures. Though I did toy with Nova in the original build.
I'd play some Incandescent Soulstoke rather than 4/4 of Gouger and Remains
It would boost and allow tricks with other elementals, and great synergy with things like Nova Chaser and Doomgape. Or use the sneak attack ability with the liege, boost all your army and win

The deck currently runs all of 8 elementals, and there aren't really any other great ones that fit this particular strategy.

I've been toying with a Haakon Blightning deck for a while.

Thanks for the input guys. Keep it comin.
It would give all your creatures +2/+2 and would have a bigger body than Liege.

StaffI might suggest Spike Jester over Grixis Grimblade. The haste is more effective than the Deathtouch for this kind of deck.
Ashenmoor Gouger and Shambling Remains are efficient three drops, which you currently lack.
Bloodmark Mentor seems out of place.
Fists of the Demigod seem eh.
I'd suggest a list more like this:
4 Jund Hackblade
4 Spike Jester
4 Ashenmoor Gouger
4 Shambling Remains
4 Ashenmoor Liege
2 Demigod of Revenge
4 Duress
4 Blightning
7 Swamp
7 Mountain
4 Graven Cairns
4 Dragonskull Summit
