Cruel Feeding

Instant

Strive — Cruel Feeding costs {2}{B} more to cast for each target beyond the first.

Any number of target creatures each get +1/+0 and gain lifelink until end of turn. (Damage dealt by a creature with lifelink also causes its controller to gain that much life.)

Najeela, the Blade-Blossom can give all attacking creatures lifelink.

Angel of Destiny is self-explanatory

Cruel Feeding (might be more like this. did a quick search for "target gains" and lifelink. too sleepy to read all of them)

Henchman31: You may notice I dropped a couple cards from the sideboard already. Those cards were literally useless in this deck, idk what I was thinking back then lol. Cruel Feeding was too mana hungry, but Alchemist's Gift, Grotesque Mutation or even Essence Infusion seem like better options against burn and other aggro decks.

Innocent Blood or Tragic Slip for actual removal.

Feed the Swarm for enchantments, maybe. And (yikes) Universal Solvent is probably a bad idea because it will require a Dark Ritual to activate, but it does hit all permanent types, which is hard to do in mono-b.

And finally you also have things like Professor's Warning and Oblivion's Hunger, which are more on the defensive/reactive side, but can still jam your opponent's plans up.

Hope some of that helps. This is actually the best of three decks you mentioned, so I'll start here and then the other decks will take bit more thought.

That kinda makes sense I guess, but surely something instant speed like Cruel Feeding, Mortal's Ardor or Swift Justice would be better in those slots? It becoming a really round-about Pacifism doesn't seem super useful. Something like Oust could be in those slots.

alright so here goes, so the cards to the left can be swapped with the ones to the right, it has the same or very similair effect but for a reduced mana cost etc.

Throttle -> Grasp of Darkness

Bloodtallow Candle -> Dismember

Whispers of Emrakul -> Hymn to Tourach

Painful Lesson -> Night's Whisper (there is also: Sign in Blood

Lethal Sting -> Victim of Night (there is also Go for the Throat)

Dutiful Return -> Ghoulcaller's Chant ? (its cheaper and will almost always be for a zombie? a lot cheeper but its your call.)

Abyssal Specter -> Hypnotic Specter

the next ones are cards i think you should strip, i will list them and then explain why:

Ruin Rat : you already have a few of these, and this isnt even a zombie. there are just better cards out there that arent expensive at all, (i'll give some suggestions further down the post)

Shambling Attendants : Just strictly bad, you dont want to play a 3/5 dude for 8 mana ever.

Cruel Feeding : its just pretty bad, the strive cost is very expensive just to +1/0 lifelink. dont use this unless you had something specific in mind that i didnt catch up on reading the list.

Duress and Divest : these never really do much, yes you get to pick away 1 card and see 1 hand but you will almost never hit anything especially good, only run this if you are planning to do a lot of 1v1 EDH.

Here are some suggestions of cards that are very cheap and are pretty good:

Empty the Pits

Zombie Apocalypse

Nightmare

Zombie Master

Nevinyrral's Disk

Exsanguinate

Couple ideas to make this even more brutal: -1 Swamp +1Altar's Reap, -3Cruel Feeding, +3 Innocent Blood, or keep Cruel feeding and move Shrivel to side? Forced sac on both sides makes the deck even more aggro! You could also make room by going -1 on Infernal Scarring.

This is bestial :)! I know you only have one Lord of Shatterskull, but wouldn't it be badass to stick Touch of Moonglove or Cruel Feeding on him and swing for massive RAGE? anyways, this is super swell. I've got some cows as well, but I think the strategies of the decks are quite diffrent, so I wouldn't suggest taking a look at it for inspiration... So instead I'll do it just because I'm egocentric like that! Horns twisted by hatred Tallyho!
