Here is an updated list after playtesting. Playtesting is going very well and I feel that this could be a very strong deck.

[DECK]
Land:
1x Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth
2x Swamp
4x Temple of Malice
3x Temple of Triumph
4x Caves of Koilos
2x Mountain
4x Nomad Outpost
4x Battlefield Forge

Creatures:
4x Butcher of the Horde
2x Stormbreath Dragon

Spells:
3x Thoughtseize
2x Utter End
2x Anger of the Gods
3x End Hostilities
4x Hero's Downfall
3x Lightning Strike
3x Mardu Charm
4x Read the Bones

Planeswalkers:
2x Chandra, Pyromaster
2x Elspeth, Sun's Champion
2x Sarkhan, the Dragonspeaker

Sideboard:
1x Anger of the Gods
4x Crackling Doom
1x End Hostilities
3x Hushwing Gryff
3x Nyx-Fleece Ram
2x Utter End
1x Sorin, Solemn Visitor
[/DECK]

The first few turns will be a little rough. They should be spent fixing mana and removing treats. By turn five we should have some treats of our own to use and possibly even an [[End Hostilities]] to reset the board. The win conditions are the heavy hitters like Sarkhan, the Dragonspeaker, Butcher of the Horde, Stormbreath Dragon, and [card]Elspeth, Sun's Champion[/card]. The sideboard is still a work in progress.

Some of the Sideboard options:

U/W Heroic:
+ 4x Crackling Doom
+ 3x Nyx-Fleece Ram
+ 1x End Hostilities
- 3x Lightning Strike
- 3x Mardu Charm
- 2x Anger of the Gods

Aggro:
+ 3x Nyx-Fleece Ram
+ 1x Anger of the Gods
- 3x Thoughtseize
- 1x Mardu Charm

Reanimater:
+ 2x Utter End
+ 3x Hushwing Gryff
+ 1x End Hostilities
- 3x Lightning Strike
- 3x Mardu Charm
