Budget EDH deck. The idea was that if I could not spend shitloads of money on good cards then I would just buy cheap cards that are always effective (kill and discard) and then take the expensive ones from other people with reanimate and use them. Not so budget anymore due to prices on some key cards skyrocketing, as well as some trades I've made.

Lots of unblockable to allow Ink-Eyes, Servant of Oni to accomplish this, and hexproof/shroud to prevent her from being targeted. Witchbane Orb and Nim Deathmantle can protect from forced sacrifice effects as well.

Taking suggestions for anything that fits this deck and is cheap. Things I have considered already are on the maybeboard and are probably there due to price.
