I like interesting generals for my EDH decks. Initially, I wanted to try a Spirit tribal deck with Iname, Death Aspect as my general, but realized the idea was a little too hard to setup and folded to GY hate. I then read up on Night Dealings, and this general with Underworld Dreams seemed like the deck to put it in! =D
How does one play this deck?
It's simple, really; you get out Seizan, and start bringing on the pain. You're hurting all of your opponents with Seizan and your various Pestilence effects, but you have various ways to get ahead of your opponents on life so that you can kill them. Your best win condition is undoubtedly Bloodchief Ascension, as it can get active extremely quickly in this deck, and will kill them in short order, but you have other ways to keep your life total afloat while killing all of your opponents at once.
Cards I'm Considering Adding:
None as of right now.
Nuances of the Deck:
-Remember, your Pestilence effects trigger Night Dealings. That card by itself can tutor you well over 5-6 cards when used properly. Hell, one Pestilence activation gets you multiple counters; if that's not value, I don't know what is.

Why Seizan, Perverter of Truth?
How does one play this deck?
Cards I'm Considering Adding:
Nuances of the Deck:
-Wound Reflection is your Furnace of Rath; most of your damage comes from Seizan, Perverter of Truth, your Pestilences, Underworld Dreams and Bloodchief Ascension. It's a great finisher to tutor for when you want to make your move.
-Keep in mind, Exquisite Blood will net you 1 life for each opponent when your Pestilience effects damage them.
