Mono-Black Budget Discard - As I haven't seen any amazing mono black control for standard yet. Discard at least limits your opponents options. So its like semi minor control. Keep the opponents hand empty leave them to draw only, leaving you with a good card advantage. Having cards come back from the grave keeps your side of the board full. Deck basically functions around Cabal Stronghold + Dread Shade . Cause its a great finisher and great for getting a good chunk of life back when sacrificed at the right time. Also 3CMC very easy to bring back regularly.

Creatures

-Stitcher's Supplier - T1 stuff in grave, great sac target, body and blocker. You def want a bit in your graveyard.

- Burglar Rat - Starting the discard game. Stays on curve easy extra discard later in game as well. And blocker body.

- Dread Shade - Main finisher plan. Can grow big with Cabal Stronghold. Add survives Lightning Strike. Overall Strong. - Isareth the Awakener - Cheap and can get stuff coming back for ETB effects or bodies on the board. And can chump for worth when needed.

- Fell Specter - Great ETB for this deck, Great evasion, and great life pressure, what else could you want. - Whisper, Blood Liturgist - Sac two for any creature back sure!

Discard

Divest, Duress cheap easy.

Heartless Pillage - alittle more expensive but Treasure Artifact for a needed mana helps.

Raiders' Wake - More discard assistant life pressure.

Advantage

Blood Divination - A creature for 3 cards, what black is about.Stitcher's Supplier target here.

Gruesome Menagerie - Board advantage and ETB effects again.

Dark Bargain - 2 in my hand 1 in grave for future target for 2 life yeah, Blood is Power.

Mausoleum Secrets - There is gonna be creatures in your grave get back whatever you need when you need it.

Arguel's Blood Fast   - Card Advantage for life easy choice. Flip for Temple of Aclazotz sac a pumped Dread Shade for life back, and easy target for bring back to the battlefield later.

Trying to keep Black alive...... ummmm ..... something about a Necromancer being a very late healer.

+1 if you like feel free to add cards you think would suit better.
