I wanted to build around Shadow of the Grave and after some brainstorming I got this rough draft. Still needs a lot of work and I would appreciate some help.

The idea is to do a lot of self-discard (mainly with lands) with looting (Faithless Looting, Cathartic Reunion), Raven's Crime or Seismic Assault. With Shadow of the Grave , Life from the Loam, The Gitrog Monster and Splendid Reclamation we benefit from discarding cards. Since this deck isn't blazingly fast, there is some interaction in there, to stem the flood: Abrupt Decay, Fatal Push, Raven's Crime and Seismic Assault. We win the game with burn, either with Seismic Assault and returning a lot of lands to our hand or with Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle and Splendid Reclamation.

Combos

Combos:
Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle + Splendid Reclamation: We can get a lot of lands to the graveyard with Seismic Assault, looting and fetch lands. The idea would be a Scapeshift like win condition.

Seismic Assault + Life from the Loam/ Shadow of the Grave : Just shooting the opponent with a lot of lands.

The Gitrog Monster + Dakmor Salvage + Seismic Assault: gg?

Interactions:
Life from the Loam + Sheltered Thicket/Canyon Slough

Sideboard

Artifact hate:
2x Ancient Grudge: Castable out of the graveyard. Love it.
2x Rakdos Charm: Will be replaced, but atm doubles for artifact and graveyard hate.
1x Shatterstorm: If you really want to make a point.

Graveyard hate:
2x Leyline of the Void: Probably one of the best graveyard hate pieces.
2x Rakdos Charm: See above.

Aggro hate:
2x Anger of the Gods: Very good against dredge or wheenie.2x Engineered Explosives: Good against wheenie.

Other stuff:
1x Boseiju, Who Shelters All: Against control.3x Thoughtseize: Against control and combo.
