One last cut suggestion - Phyrexian Altar. You've got both Ashnod's Altar and Phyrexian Altar, I'm not sure you need both, and in a deck like yours Ashnod's Altar might be the better pick.

If you're interested in some combos, I think you might like Gravecrawler, this is very easy to go infinite with Warren Soultrader or Phyrexian Altar, but it also works with Pitiless Plunderer, then you just need anything that cares about casting creatures (Bontu's Monument, Aetherflux Reservoir), creatures ETBing, or creatures dying, and you've got a fair bit that meets those requirements. If you've got Mikaeus you'd also end up with infinite mana since you'll only need to reanimate it every other time. It also works with your Yawgmoth, and any other sac outlets you might have. When I checked you've got 3 Zombies atm, but I don't think I use all that many in the deck I use Gravecrawler as a combo piece in, you'd mostly want either Mikaeus or Warren out with it. Maybe you'd need a few more to really make it shine?

Since you've got some big mana stuff, maybe good old Razaketh, the Foulblooded? If you can resolve him you should just win on the spot, and he plays very well with stuff like your Kormus Bell, Cabal Coffers, and any Rituals (like Dark Ritual). I just love using him in my Golgari deck, 8 mana is steep but I usually reanimate him somehow.

I feel like your deck is very good at making the opponents' creatures dead, yes? Maybe Revel in Riches to just win off of 1 card and what you're doing anyways?

This deck looks like a lot of fun!

Looks fun! Using a removal or counterspell and drawing a card off Marneus Calgar + Talrand, Sky Summoner sounds awesome

I need to add Nadir Kraken to my list. It goes infinite with Calgar and Ashnod's Altar/Phyrexian Altar

You should think about Anointed Procession since it also goes infinite with Calgar and Ashnod's Altar

capwner thanks, i like building decks from unused commanders. getting Haakon, Stromgald Scourge in the graveyard is what kicks this deck off, being able to re-cast my commander over and over again from the graveyard kinda turns it into a x spell if i have a death trigger card on board.

going infinite is extremely easy once i have Haakon, Stromgald Scourge on board. if i had Phyrexian Altar on board any 1 drop knight will let me have inf etb and death triggers, another one would be Activated Sleeper and Cavalier of Night. josu also goes infinite on accident really easily especially if i have Roaming Throne out.

its fun to play this deck as i can either go for infinites in a higher power game or for a more casual game ill just not use the infinites and play the deck normally, winning by casting my commander a lot and swinging out or casting Smitten Swordmaster.

so getting Haakon in graveyard, getting sac outlet and casting mana doublers is the plan. every game plays differently with this deck. never the same wincon in a row

Consider Gravecrawler and Forsaken Miner? These are one drops for Grimgrin sac who cost one mana each to reanimate. Grimgrin is a Zombie for Crawler and when he attacks/destroys a creature that's a crime to trigger Miner. You have Phyrexian Altar, Altar + Crawler + Grimgrin + one of Cutthroat/Meathook/Funeral/Remembrance/Vindictive makes all opponents lose infinite life.

Whenever you lose life for the first time each turn, create that many 1/1 black Sliver creature tokens.

Sliver tribal, obviously.

A menagerie of token decks that could run things such as Impact Tremors for kickback damage or Doubling Season for swarmlord tactics or Cathars' Crusade for indomitable forces.

Then you have, of course, death and taxes. Nobody wants to swing into you, for you to take 27 damage to the face and have 27 creatures enter.

Finally, any mass sac outlet will want this card. Phyrexian Altar as an example.

Make a brand new Planeswalker who can be used as your commander.

For their power level, design them to be the face of a precon.
