I probably won't be building anymore decks honestly. I got angry with the direction Wizards is taking magic so I stopped deck updates or new deck creation. Blood Funnel is a fun card to play around along with Greel, Mind Raker. Know what would be funny? A land destruction deck with Jolrael, Empress of Beasts. Green/Black with Pestilence or other similar cards.

You should most definitely build a spell control deck. Bant or Esper?
Blood Funnel :) Want to build around that so bad. Maybe I'll squeeze it into Greel, Mind Raker since he is so uninspiring.
This weekends project is going to be building a 43 Lands.dec with Jolrael, Empress of Beasts. I suspect out of all the Spellshapers she is the strongest.

I would suggest an option that includes and , with as a possible third color.
isn't great. Mageta the Lion is a repeatable board wipe, and the other two I would consider are Avenger en-Dal and Devout Witness as targeted removal options.
has a couple of interesting control options. Waterfront Bouncer, Trickster Mage, and maybe Alexi, Zephyr Mage are passable tempo options, Stronghold Biologist and Stronghold Machinist are more color-heavy, and Dreamscape Artist hits color fixing and ramp, unusual for blue.
Spellshapers are generally mana-heavy, but Undertaker gives you a lot of freedom in what you discard, allowing you to switch cards in your hand and graveyard as needed. Notorious Assassin and Greel, Mind Raker are further control options.
offers mostly burn and evasion. Seismic Mage is repeatable land destruction, and Hammer Mage eats artifacts.
is, as always, the best at color fixing, with Greenseeker, Harvest Mage, and Silverglade Pathfinder. Rushwood Herbalist and Dawnstrider protect your creatures, and Jolrael, Empress of Beasts works well with the red options.

I discoverd Greel, Mind Raker some time ago and thought you might want to consider adding him. I see that you focus more on Liesa's reanimator aspect, but at least according to my expercience Liesa spends way too much time in the command zone with too many taxes attached as soon as I try to play her. Greel is a nice alternative to the [Sadistic Hypnotist] imo.

Greel, Mind Raker seems to fit the description of what you are looking for. There's no timing restriction on his ability either.

On my quest to also build a tinybones deck, I found some of the cards below that have really been an asset to me. Maybe they could help you out too.
Instant Speed Discard Cards: _(Allows you to force them to discard on their turn, so you can get a draw trigger then too.)
- Necrogen Spellbomb , Funeral Charm , Black Cat / Mindslicer / Elvish Doomsayer like cards, that discourage people from attacking you while also possibly making them discard on their turn, Nezumi Shortfang Flip (also has a special second flipside ability), Torment of Scarabs (they have to really screw themselves over every turn unless they discard), Cry of Contrition (can be sort of like a bounty, taxing someone when the creature dies which can be on someone else's turn), Unmask , Greel, Mind Raker , Gibbering Descent
Other Cards:

There's a promo of Brain Maggot that is absolutely disgusting and perverse, I think it'd be pretty cool.
In terms of extra cards, I'd suggest some legendary creatures from the Kamigawa blocks, not only is their art exactly what you're looking for, but some have the same theme as your deck. Here's the ones I would suggest:
- Seizan, Perverter of Truth
- Iname, Death Aspect
- Patron of the Nezumi
- Kyoki, Sanity's Eclipse
- Kuro, Pitlord
- Yukora, the Prisoner
Some extra weird cards that I've found in my journey's:
- Greel, Mind Raker
- Ashling, the Extinguisher
- Geth, Lord of the Vault
- Macabre Waltz
- Treacherous Urge
- Mindstab Thrull
- Blood Funnel
- Kheru Bloodsucker
Overall, really cool deck theme! I'd put in an Underworld Dreams because it's pretty creepy and goes great with your theme +1
Oh yeah! and you should take out Jungle Hollow and Bloodfell Caves!

This is the commander I am most excited about. I like that you are leaning into the idea of everyone discarding, I was kinda thinking the same thing. If i have to be card dead, so does everyone else.
Creeping Dread - I like the idea of everyone having to discard, the damage is just a bonus.
Volrath the Fallen - 3 might be tough to play, but its a good way to madness out a creature.
Greel, Mind Raker - could be 0 if you are just looking to madness out a couple cards, or could make 1 opponent discard entire hand.
I am also feeling like this deck will need more mana rocks. especially if you are cycling thought your cards quickly. I was loving the new Arcane Signet coming out in the next set.
Good luck with this build. :)
