Do you think I should cut nightmare void ?  Now that I'm thinking about it, it seems too slow, especially with lots of players.

I wouldn't play it. There are just better ways of getting cards into your graveyard, and those sorts of discard effects that target the one player are just bad in edh...

you want to hit everyone with Myojin of Night's Reach or Mindslicer or Nath of the Gilt-Leaf + Sadistic Hypnotist or something like that. Hitting a players entire hand isn't bad.

Saw Sepulchral primordial in the spoilers and it seems like an amazing addition to the deck.  

Here is a link to the card: http://forums.mtgsalvation.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=138792&d=1358226056

Any ideas what to take out?  My deck can be found here:  http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/jarad-and-friends/
If no one has any ideas I might just take out grave betrayal .

Meh. I find the Betrayal good enough to keep in. Is army of the damned worth it?

I've been debating army of the damned , it can be an instant win in some scenarios and since a lot of cards get in my graveyard I can flashback it if it gets in there by accident.  Its hard to say if I should take it out or not.  It does a put a giant target over my head as well which is a factor to consider, though sepulchral primordial does the same thing.

 I will consider removing it, but I want to wait for other peoples' ideas.  Thanks for the input!

Here's how I look at it: For 7 mana you are getting a 5 power fattie with intimidate in addition to whatever fattie in an opposing graveyard you want for each player vs 8 (or 10) for 13x 2/2s or 26x 2/2s total at best. How many players are typically in your EDH games? What decks do they play and what does that lead to as far as the fatties that typically end up in thier GY(Any Maeyeal or Rakdos, Lord of Riots players)?  How likely are your zombies to actually hit the opposing players vs the other fatties (Flying Angels/Dragons/Demons/etc, Tramplers, Intimidation/Fear)? Come into play effects? Great abilities (Avacyn comes to mind)? These are things you have to decide based on your playgroup, but I know that would be the 1st card I look at when I'm making cuts looking at that decklist.
