I really like the combination of a Morbid effect with Undying. Blanket destruction of permanents is more of a black/white thing, but the Morbid trigger is a decent enough hoop jump through to justify it. The remove counters effect feels fairly natural as well, and life loss always feels demon like to me. Good job!

Now that's a mana cost and a half! The effects are certainly powerful enough, and I do like mirrored effects, but he seems maybe one or two coloured mana too high for my taste; especially since you're a less likely to have a hand full of cards by the time you have enough mana to cast him. He does seem like a decent general for EDH though.

As I said, I really like mirrored effects, and I'm also a fan of Painful Quandry which the first part reminds me of. A nice, solid late game card that your opponent has to deal with straight away.

I was not expecting a three mana demon at all! It does a really good job of reflecting Black/Red's screw waiting, I want it now feel and is a great agressive threat.

I like being able to force creatures to attack, and having it on a fairly strong flyer seems like a good deal to me. One small problem for me is that while it seems like it would be good in multiplayer, unless it's a format like star or 'attack left' (I can never remember if that has a name or not), there's little chance to use both effects together.

A few small templating issues, it's 'Legendary Creature - Demon Wall', and it should be 'Gehennan Wall May block creatures with Shadow as though it had shadow.
Reach, Infect, Undying'
A nice solid defence that is very hard to penetrate and is fairly resiliant as well, although it doesn't quite feel demonic to me.

Ooh! A soul stealing demon. There's some really nice flavour here and it seems fairly powerful as well, if a little fragile but that's fine.

Phyrexian mana does really help the paying life for power deal that a lot of demons have, and I do like the idea of black green giving out -1/-1, drawing power from your life when there's no green mana left as well.

The second and third effects a fairly strong. Redirecting spells for no mana certainly can't be weak and I do have a soft spot for choosing attackers and blockers. However, I feel that he should either come standard with flying or not have the first ability at all. Blue is the primarily flying colour and the third ability should be enough to stop most blockers.
Winner:
