Nice list. A couple of thoughts.... I saw you mentioned you have issues with lands/ramp. By removing the more expensive, less synergistic cards with lands/ramp, it should help make the deck more consistent...
Hedonist's Trove - Stealing cards is fun but not needed
Rakshasa Debaser - See above
Thieving Amalgam - See above
Endbringer's Revel - Black has MUCH better forms of recursion. Dance of the dead, animate dead, necomancy, etc... although if you want not to field recursion, Oversold Cemetery
Ob Nixilis, the Hate-Twisted - Cool with peer from the abyss but too costly. Having opponents draw cards is worse too. Using it on your own creatures for draw seems meh
Witch Engine - Slow ramp that benefits opponents? No thanks

Corruption Spreader
Creature - Eldrazi
Devoid (This card has no color.)
At the beginning of your upkeep, sacrifice a permanent, then put a corruption counter on a permanent.
Whenever a permanent with a corruption counter on it is put into a graveyard, you may return target permanent from your graveyard to your hand.
4/4
Not sure if this is thematically eldrazi. Spreading corruption to damage the land to prepare the way for other eldrazi.
Make an old school phyrexian horror (think Witch Engine here)

Sorry for all these multiple posts in a row, I don't think I'm able to edit my comments.
Does King Macar, the Gold-Cursed count as a mana dork?
Coward_Token on Grixis!Zedruu

(I would add a proper community card but that feature seems to be malfunctioning right now.)
Farly straightforward, this card would mostly be Zedruu the Greathearted (although a different character, not simply her gone evil or something) with a casting cost of and an activation cost of . In EDH, this could lead to some fun usage of cards like the following:
(I realize you can basically already do this with any Grixis commander + e.g. Bazaar Trader, but that's a bit less straightforward.)

I'm unsure what would be suitable for its upkeep ability. Just copying Zedruu's straight off isn't too inappropriate, as drawing is certainly associated with black and life gain isn't too far out either, but that's kinda boring. Replacing the life gain with something negative towards opponents like milling, discard or plain life loss proportional to the amount of gifted permanent could be one option that's more in line with the color change (thought the negative effects would probably targeted in order to preserve some political potential). Putting a +1/+1 counter per gift on Zedruu the Grixishearted to take advantage of commander damage could also work (especially when combined with auras like Herald of Torment), in which case you could also change power/toughness from the original's 2/4 to 4/2 to signal greater aggression.
For the sake of flavor its subtype would be Horse Djinn, with the artwork depicting a djinn with a mare's head, wearing a mouth-covering veil.
Feedback would be welcome, especially on ways to make Grixis!Zedruu more distinct from the original while still fulfilling the basic function of giving out torturous black cards, in addition to the blue and red ones they both share.
(A version containing green could also be made for the sake of giving that color a chance to show off its painful cards, in which case the creature in question should probably have monkey paws.)

Also Witch Engine is a strange card to be in black...
