Thats my deck at the moment - I had hoped that I could run my black deck at a FNM - but the cards are no longer legal - so started an ally deck but could use advice as to which cards I should remove and what to put in their place. Thanks in advance

Cheers for posting, I'm not up-to-date with Standard, but I did a bit of research and you are definitely on the right lines... I checked out MTGsalvation, MTGgoldfish etc..
In the end some people post some really handy videos on Youtube. This does a good job of explaining.
This list costs around £15-25 total, but you've already got a lot of the cards. I might have some if you say what you need. (Plus the multi-player club regulars might!). Also, I visit Manaleak in Worcester regularly and they sell singles so I could always pick you some up. (They take trade-ins as well if you have some rares/mythics that you don't want, trade them in for store credit so it might not cost you much at all!)

There's also the option of a competitive deck, but you don't need that for an FNM. See the Video notes below the video (click 'show more' to see the lists. Also worth reading the user comments for more hints and tips.

thanks for the link - very useful - I'm still short several cards - (I will bring the box of zandikar cards that I'm not using over) - does any have any of the following (and willing to swap?)

1 Lantern Scout
3 Drana's Emissary
3 Cliffhaven Vampire
3 Grasp of Darkness
