Really surprised to see you pass up Reanimation in favor of block, and the only reason I would ever get Mana Thirst is if I got Renewed Swing, giving me a 'free' 50 mana. The fact that Mana Thirst is capped at 50 mana makes the talent pretty lackluster in my opinion, since at best you break even.
I've found Fealty Unto Death to be really good for laning, and just an all around great talent.
I'm on the fence about Ossein, since Ghastly Reach is just so nice, especially with Consume Vitality...
