Null Caller does the same thing as your commander but worse, but it can still help.

Some cards to consider for this deck (however you might actually have to increase your lands if you include these):

ScionsStillLive: I think Null Caller is worse than Diregraf Colossus and Lord of the Undead , which do similar things. However, it could be okay in the sideboard if you play against a lot of slow grindy decks regularly, probably in Shalai, Voice of Plenty 's slot. :)

Thanks for the feedback!
Fair enough about the Gideon and the Liliana. I originally had 2 Gideon's in there, but after the few games I played, he didn't help me out much (I cast him once which took the attacks off of me and onto him, but it really made no difference), and I never pulled the Liliana.
I did pull a Liliana, the Last Hope today - what do you think about using her? Probably the same as using the other one, though the destroy non-zombies and adding X 2/2 zombies is nice, but may take too long to really utilize in a competitive setting.
You are right that I don't have creature control. I don't have Fatal Push or any other card from Aether Revolt (will be hopefully rectifying that this weekend), and I'll have to check to see if I have the other 2 you mentioned.
I may have 1 Cryptbreaker so I can definitely put that in, and I agree about the Wayward Servant and the Null Caller.

I think any zombie build these days should have Cryptbreaker. He's good early, he's good late, and he does all the things you need him to do- make zombies and draw cards. I would run a full set of him. You also want to run the full set of Wayward Servant. He's that good.
And for wanting to control the board, you don't have any removal. Fatal Push, Grasp of Darkness, and Declaration in Stone are all really good right now. I know you have a couple tappers, but you need some hard removal.
You can probably find room for these cards with just a few changes- I would suggest taking the solo cards out. the Gideon, the Bontu, the Kalitas, and the Oketra (probably the Lilly as well). They are powerful, but there's no consistancy with that many solos. I see you have a tutor to help, but you only have 1 of those too. I also think the Stir the Sands and the Null Caller can come out.
These changes will keep your curve low and make 22 land work. I think if you keep the 5 and 6 drops in, than you'll need to bump the land to 24. And I know you're looking to switch some land around when you get it, but in the meantime, there's nothing wring with playing 4 Forsaken Sanctuary. Yeah, it's slower, but it helps to fix the mana and is easy to get.
Hope this helps some.

Just a few games, just getting back into standard. Been out since Sidisi Whip was a thing. But the testing is promising, and your right. The deck really needs to hit the 5-6 mana mark, so needs some ramp.
Another downside right now is, I don't actually have a Gisela, the Broken Blade. Substituting a Null Caller right now. Plus I need better instant speed sac outlets, need Eternal Scourge in the graveyard. So any input would be great!
