With the formate being slower seems like a T5 Curse of Bloodletting in a deck with hasty creatures, Geist of Saint Taft, Hellrider and and Sublime Archangel would be explosive.

Cheers

I don't know. Not affecting the board with a 5-mana spell seems... dangerous.

I would ignore the curse of bloodletting and use Necropolis Regent she can achieve the same effects at turn later plus a 6/5 flying body, not to mention she takes effect the second she comes down doubling your guys power and making them less susceptible to burn spells; of course they could just kill her before her effect takes place, but with the lack of good instant speed removal her effect is more likely to happen, so I think she would be more reliable.

I would ignore both Curse of Bloodletting and Necropolis Regent and look into Junk Ramp, running mana dorks, Lingering Souls, Collective Blessing, Thragtusk, etc.

Or, play Curse of Thirst, Curse of Misfortunes, Curse of Death's Hold, and Sphere of Safety. That was a really fun deck for me. 

The best way to use Bloodletting is Staff of Nin and Stensia Bloodhall . It might take a moment to get, but if you want to play a very grindy deck staffing into staffs and removal/burn is just plain fun. Grixis Staff could be a fairly fun way to play without creatures (or just Augur of Bolas ) if you're feeling silly.

I know, but those are all 5s : (

My suggestion. Boros. Get a W/R life gain/creature pump deck (Stonewright/Nearhearth Pilgrim/things with lifelink/Rohx Faithmender) and play the Bloodletting as a finisher. Gain huge life, deal big damage with double strikers, have fun.

Of course, given the enviroment, the deck won't do all that well, but it's living the dream!

So long as you hit Terminus or Wrath of Taco Bell on 3 you are fine. Play some Signets, removal, and lifegain.

Reason I stopped playing it? Everyone in my meta plays control (mostly esper) and the deck loses hard in the mirror (Because Planeswalkers)

Hello sir, have you been acquainted to Sands of Delerium , Nephalia Drownyard and Jace, Memory Adept ? I get that the joke with that deck is to never run any win condition, but to rather run a thousand "not lose" conditions, but it isn't far from being a real control with a little bit of threat density to create softlocks.

Obviously. That's why you run Oblivion Rings and Detention Spheres.
I'm not saying the deck is T1, I'm just saying I enjoyed the deck while I played it. If I put it together again it'd probably lose to everything however.
