Vial and Ghost!

Ahhh I've been wanting to play with Obosh, the Preypiercer and Angrath's Marauders - glad you found a spot for them. While you're at it, you could also consider other "damage doublers" such as Wound Reflection and Fiendish Duo. I've thought about a Vial-Smasher deck with a White partner just to add Gisela, Blade of Goldnight.
3> I see you enjoy big monsters and X-spells here. Oh to be young again... but seriously, this seems like a good deck to play them in as you would be rewarded. Instants are your friend, as you can Smash Vials on everyone's turn! No Comet Storm?
3> I would be worried about Vial-Smasher getting nuked from orbit as soon as your turn passes and it's no longer indestructible. You'll find Heroic Intervention and Slippery Bogbonder will help with targeted Exile removal. You already have Destroy and Sacrifice covered I see.
3> I see some cost-reduced and commander-free spells in there, but you have a limited suite. While doing research for my thoughts on Vial-Smasher, I found the following might be helpful - list is just copy/paste, so it will include some White and/or Blue cards:
- 3- Offalsnout (evoke B)
- 3- Rushwood Legate (opponent control island)

Kind of generic Yuriko tech, she works really well with cards that have alternate costs, like evoke (Mulldrifter) or delve (Dig Through Time, Temporal Trespass, Treasure Cruise, even Murderous Cut might be nice).

Hello fellow Gifts Player!
Should you not already own the Search for Azcanta Flip i would strongly advise againts them, as they are too slow for the current meta and instead invest the saved money for an Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite as this card is crucial for creature decks like Merfolk, Humans, etc. and in my opinion by far the best reanimation target.
As JKRIce already said, you want to diversify important cards like your boardwipes to always hit one in a gifts package. My budget recommendations for this are Languish Ritual of Soot Day of Judgment (worse but regeneration is rarely relevant)
I can recommend Murderous Cut As a 1-of removal with 4 of Thought Scour as your primary Cantrip in the place of Serum Visions to fuel the Delve. This also gives you the potential to accidentally mill your Reanimation Targets and your unburial, which will greatly accelerate your gameplan. Then you can also add one or two Tasigur, the Golden Fang for early pressure or a strong late game plan.
But all in all you already put together a great deck. I hope I was able to help :)

Have you considered Village Rites to sacrifice Stitcher's Supplier? You can also do it in response to an exile removal spell on one of your creatures, to reanimate later.
Mythos of Nethroi is trash here, its basically just Murder. There are a bunch of better options in pioneer like Fatal Push, Heartless Act, Hero's Downfall, Cast Down, etc. Maybe even Murderous Cut since you're loading up the graveyard so much.
For more discard outlets, maybe Chart a Course?

This is pretty solid.
I would personally add Deadly Rollick to replace Murderous Cut.
Have you thought about Conjurer's Closet to blink your creatures? The high cmc is worth it in this deck. Not sure what to cut out though.
