Your right about the creature kill for sure. If my brother uses his thief or control magic deck at least I can kill what he steals. Or I can wait play damnation and then put my creatures out. The updated deck makes it a 64 card deck. I'm worried about it being slow though besides the dark rituals is the only mana boost I have. It may be okay I'll have to do some play testing. Oh I like washout because it returns creatures to the owners hands for me to discard them. Damnation just kills them. Evacuation would be a better choice but it's a one higher casting cost.
More Specters, evasive beater which can eat at his hand is no joke. I don't think Sol Ring works here as well as it should. Comsidering at best you'd be using mono black or with 1 Colorless for most spells.
And I'm not sure why the singleton of strip mine. I don't know if your playgroup uses the banlist but usually, I'd run set or none of those.
So what if he has Innocent Blood? So what of oen creature when he has other means of killing anyway. That's what Black does. So what one creature, or 2 life, I'm still gonna win anyway.
Well, you could continue beating them with the Specters and Bloodghast. Nyxathid and Tombstalkers are usually finishers back in my day. Nezumni Shortfang is the other Rack. Besides, Black Cat would synnergize with Innocent Blood, forcing him to discard at random and kill off his creatures.
I had my experiences with PW's and they dun get much around, especially on a discard deck since they're a huge target and gone before you can do anything.
Extirpate is pretty much hard to find but a might consider.
Corrupt is a MBC finisher not a discard one. You have not enough swamps to support it. You have 3 different finisher (4 if you count specters and rats beating), they are enough.
Unfortunately Hymns are extremely hard to get hold of here so that's pretty much out of the option here.
As great as a card he is, he's not worth it outside of a dedicated infect deck.
When your Crusaders are dead with him at 10 Life and at 5 poison, you have catching up to do.

Dude, using Evac is counter intuitive to a Discard deck. You want the cards to be discarded, not back in the hand where he can play it again.
I would ditch Syphon Mind, it's pretty poor and too high casting. Especially for 1 vs 1.
If you want to load his hand with Evac and rofce him to discard. Try adding Painful Quandry
Wash out is too selective to be of any proper use. Especially if you want to load his hand.
Heck. If you wanted full blown discard, run mono black.
Heck, I feel like you're trying to do too much with two colors.

Let's see. First off. You're going for UB discard or mill/forced draw? What are you trying to do here?
Not to mention there are far better alternatives to use for some cards.
Replace Royal Assassin with Doomblade, Murder, Rend Flash, Go for the Throat etc.
You don't have counterspells here. Counterspell, Daze, Mana Leak, Dissipate and Runesnag
Ditch Silents for Hypnotic Specter. A lot more curve friendly.
If you're going to use Psychosis Crawler as a wincon. Font of Mythos is better than mine and you want more card draw. (Preordain, Ponder, Sign in blood, Phyrexian Arena etc.) And sticking it to two.
I'd ditch Wash Out for better forms of mass removal. Damnation, Evacuate, Black Sun's Zenith and Devastation Tide come to mind.
I also don't see The Rack, Nezumi Shortfang and a few other staples in a discarder deck.
