I love this! I have the same feeling when I update decks with new cards. Sure it's better, but it doesn't feel as fun. My favourite decks are piles of jank from the 90s, but I sure enjoy playing every card!

There's a few rats in here that bring back memories for me. Pestilence Rats was in one of the first packs I ever opened, and I opened a miscut Sewer Rats that I still have in a binder :)

Door of Destinies, Skullclamp, Soul Foundry, In Garruk's Wake, Victimize, Graf Rats + Midnight Scavengers, Sewer Rats, and Sinuous Vermin make decent budget cards... but I'm just partial to these suggestions because their in my tribal deck:

I would suggest putting the Swarmyard to 4 and adding in Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth to make them swamps so everything in your deck still works properly. Unless you don't have enough rats on the board most of the time for them to matter. Also have you considered Swarm of Rats, Nezumi Shortfang, Nighteyes the Desecrator, or Sewer Rats? Nezumi Shortfang seems to be a better fit than Rotting Rats (don't know much about tribal rats but it seems to have a better end game). Also have you considered Ogre Slumlord? I know it's not a rat but it seem to definitely enhance the rats themselves. Also in legacy you have Dark Ritual to speed up the deck. For Draw power have you thought about Dark Confidant? The highest CMC in your deck is 5 which is only one card and the rest is 3 or less. You wouldn't be losing nearly as much life that wouldn't make up for the card draw.
