Strefan akways looks pretty brutal to me, dropping all these vampire beaters. You seem to have most of the big bad bloodsuckers in here, but maybe I can suggest some you haven't considered yet:
Drana, Kalastria Bloodchief is powerful, and you can even pump her right after dropping her.
Skeletal Vampire is a lot worse, but still interesting.
Bishop of the Bloodstained will propably deal quite a bit of damage.
Bloodline Necromancer is fine recursion.
Champion of Dusk is a big draw spell.
Defiant Bloodlord will deal lots of damage here.
Kalitas, Bloodchief of Ghet is fun.
Marshland Bloodcaster is powerful ramp.
Shauku, Endbringer looks pretty cool in here, and if only to have it enter attacking in spite of its static ability.

Hey, you're welcome.
Cards that put creatures from your hand or library into your graveyard can help Olivia as Commander . You don't need to add a bunch of expensive price cards to make improvements. Staying on a low budget is perfectly fine to have a good Olivia tribal deck. What your deck mostly needs are cards that can enable Olivia to reanimate.
The advantage that Olivia has is haste meaning she can attack to reanimate the same turn she enters the battlefield (ETB) if you have a creature in your graveyard. You want to be able to take advantage of this by having creatures in your graveyard to reanimate before you want to cast Olivia.
"Loot" is a term in Magic that means draw then discard or discard then draw. This effect lets you discard creatures in your hand to draw cards and then reanimate those creatures with Olivia. You want to cast loot early in the game thus most of these types cards you play should be lower mana cost. 40 creatures is a lot of creatures even for tribal consider cutting a few of the lesser creatures for some cards that can get creatures into your graveyard?
Budget loot package to consider adding:
- Anje Falkenrath
- Vile Entomber
- Faithless Looting: can loot twice because it has flashback.
- Seize the Spoils
- Unexpected Windfall
- Cathartic Reunion
- Thrill of Possibility
- Tormenting Voice
Anje Falkenrath is a legendary Vamp who can be a repeatable source of looting. Vile Entomber is not loot it's better and it's a creature who Olivia can reanimate. Entomber's effect is called "entomb" in Magic and it's where you search your library for a card and put that card right into your graveyard. Seize the Spoils and Unexpected Windfall are also ramp with treasures which is helpful to cast Olivia.
Cards to consider cutting for these:
- Phage the Untouchable: if you reanimate her with Olivia you lose the game because you didn't cast Phage.
- Vengeful Vampire
- Blood Petal Celebrant
- Nocturnal Feeder
- Innocent Traveler Flip
- Bishop of the Bloodstained: not needed since you have Malakir Bloodwitch who's has much better stats and hits all opponents.
- Westgate Regent
- Slaughter Specialist
I offer more advice in another comment. Would you like more advice?

Okay well my suggestions are not so crazy...
I think the only thing that needs work is your creatures and getting rid of your artifacts and maybe one land as well.
So you'd have a total of at least 20 creatures. I'm not saying you need 20 or more creatures to be a good deck in legacy.
The only creature I like currently in your deck is Gifted Aetherborn. I like it because it is a good creature for the mana cost.
This is a list of vampire cards for you to consider.

Hey, you're welcome.
To start, cards to consider cutting are lands since you don't need 41 lands in an Orzhov Commander deck especially since there's so many basic lands. Consider 36 lands? Next are creatures who don't have flying or other evasion.
You want to make some choices of the kind of creatures/theme you want to play. There's a small Vampire theme here with Captivating Vampire, Malakir Bloodwitch, etc. For these Vamps to be worth playing you need a lot more Vampires because without Vamps they don't really do much. There's many Vampires who have evasion therefore if you choose you could increase the Vamps a lot and make your deck more Vampire tribal then anything else.
A reason to cut the Vamps is there's many more nonVamp creatures that are better. Neither Tymna or Ravos are Vamps which makes the tribe overall less good, no tribal synergy with your Generals. If you choose to keep the Vamps then include a lot more of them or if not then cut them.
Cards to consider cutting:
- Vicious Rumors
- Toll of the Invasion
- Lich's Caress
- Righteous Blow
- Bloodsoaked Altar
- Burglar Rat
- Corpse Knight
- Daybreak Chaplain
- Martyr for the Cause
- Tattered Mummy
- Sanctum Custodian
- Charity Extractor
- Gallant Cavalry
- Relief Captain
- Intrusive Packbeast
- Knight of Sorrows
- Evra, Halcyon Witness
- Loxodon Restorer
- Bishop of the Bloodstained
- Baird, Steward of Argive
- Firemind Vessel
I would cut all these cards, doesn't matter what direction for your deck you choose to go. There's better budget options for each one of these cards. Some cards such as Corpse Knight are good, but it doesn't go with the current strategy therefore I would cut it.
I don't recommend the Vampire direction, but if you want to play Vamps then I do offer advice for that direction.

Bloodlord of Vaasgoth is definitely a little pricey, but he gives me bulkier vamps thanks to bloodthirst, and as of now, I don't see him coming out. That could change, though. Bishop of the Bloodstained is on my list of cards that are coming out once the rest of my mail comes in. Anowon, the Ruin Sage is one of my favorite cards, honestly, but for reasons not present in this deck. All the cards you, championeggo, listed in regards to returning from the grave, do fit the theme I'm running with. Vampires are undead and are supposed to be notoriously hard to kill, which is annoying when someone drops a Murder or Vindicate as soon as you get a decent vamp on the field. As for Massacre Girl , she is my field wipe. She's also really funny to play.

Bishop of the Bloodstained would be a great finisher
Bloodline Keeper Flip could be a token generator for cards that benefit from having a lot of creatures
Captivating Vampire would benefit from having a lot of creatures, and wins a lot of matchups
Drana, Liberator of Malakir would just be a must-remove threat, since she makes your army even bigger
Forerunner of the Legion would find important vampires
Gatekeeper of Malakir is just a good removal card in general
Indulgent Aristocrat would be good if you want something cheaper than drana
Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet synergizes with most of your deck

i think you would have a stronger deck if you dropped blue altogether and replaced it with black, there are some really good vampire cards and removal that you're not using in BW. Adanto Vanguard Bishop of the Bloodstained Sanctum Seeker Skymarch Bloodletter Vicious Conquistador Call to the Feast Forerunner of the Legion Arterial Flow Dusk Legion Zealot Twilight Prophet Elenda, the Dusk Rose Legion Lieutenant Vindictive Vampire The Haunt of Hightower Vizkopa Vampire

If you're looking for creatures that drain your opponents and work great with other vampires, I suggest Sanctum Seeker , Epicure of Blood , and Bishop of the Bloodstained . If you want more ideas on vampires, I built a cheap and casual black/white vampire deck of my own. Feel free to check it out Black/White Vampires.
