Looking to build a goofy Meren deck. But I want Black and Green cards that are from the old days when Wizards hadnt figured out the color pie yet. Know what I mean?
Like, Red has muthafracking counter magic like Pyroblast and Red Elemental Blast!!
What do Black and Green have? Come on, veterans. Help a brotha make some jokes at his EDH table!
Gonna name the obvious Null Profusion and Recycle. I'm actually revamping one of my decks to have both of those in it.
And just because it's been my favorite card for the longest time, Conspiracy.
The first two allow you to abuse the excessive mana you have to keep playing cards and drawing more. And Conspiracy allows you to run whatever creature types you want, and few who benefit a certain type. Once you plop it down, then it gets pretty crazy.
I heard human tribal is pretty decent with green, so you could make a Birds of Paradise a human that gets buffed by a Hamlet Captain or something.... and now that I just did a quick search of gatherer, most green/black human tribal involves sac'ing them, so that works even better with Meren at the helm - looking at Village Cannibals. Werewolves works too, but eh, I've seen that tribal far too much.

Stench of Evil has been good for laughs when I use it. Everyone just kind of makes a face and says, "Who makes cards like that?".

Well, first check out all the planeshifted/colorshifted cards from planar chaos, such as Melancholy, which is the black Thirst, and Gaea's Anthem, the green Glorious Anthem. I dont know about older cards like Pyroblast, but start there.
