Reign of the Pit
Sorcery
Each player sacrifices a creature. Create an X/X black Demon creature token with flying, where X is the total power of the creatures sacrificed this way.

Reign of the Pit and Grenzo, Havoc Raiser seem like pretty decent cards to add. Besides that, Enslave, Possibility Storm (don't think that's too annoying a card), Praetor's Grasp, and Thieving Amalgam are also pretty good cards that fit well within what I think your deck strategy is.

Tergrid, God of Fright EDH

Braids, Cabal Minion , Nettlevine Blight : I was just looking for things to make people sac LANDS. After the first round on Braids, Cabal Minion you would be able to sac other players stuff if you wanted. No pain. The other land sac cards were NOT budget.
Not sure what Underworld Dreams does here? I would replace it with Unnerve , Reign of the Pit , Arterial Flow or Stronghold Rats

You want to be left alone until you can cast your angels. Cards like Thalia, Heretic Cathar & Kambal, Consul of Allocation can help while the other players are going to hate you more. Making it a little harder in the mid/late game. I would defiantly skip Thalia, Heretic Cathar for that reason. Kambal, Consul of Allocation can at least deal damage and gain your life.
Lives are a resource for sure. Just watch out with Vona, Butcher of Magan that he will not suck you dry. That is a woman's job XD.
Killing Wave you want to cast for x is high. Do really want to pay that much life for all your creatures? I would skip this and play a real board wipe.
I think that you will not use Obzedat's Aid very well. You can get back an artifact (mostly ramp in your case) == bad. You can get back a planeswalker (if they got it away once, they can it again if you spent your turn on returning it) == (in my opinion) bad. You can get an enchantment back == good (in some cases). Most of the enchantment won't reach the graveyard. But it can good. You can get back a creature == good for less mana. There are a lot of better regeneration spells. They can be used more or for less.
That is why I would suggest not to play Obzedat's Aid. It is not mana efficient enough versus versatility.
From Reign of the Pit & Syphon Flesh you get a creature(s). But would it not better to choose for them? Just killing everything?
Your creatures will not always be the biggest on the table. But why do you use Ethereal Absolution instead of the cheaper options? Glorious Anthem, Always Watching, Commander's Insignia, Force of Virtue or Spear of Heliod. Graveyard hate is a benefit. But I think you can spend your mana better than that.
True Conviction is good but watch that one. Ask yourself "Do I want to play it? Or do I prefer something else? When is this good and when is it bad?". I think that it is bad in most cases and too late when you need it.
I understand that you want the lifegain and ping from Sorin, Vengeful Bloodlord. But know that the -x you can use it on 9 creatures (for now) on the turn it enters the game. Also, remember that the lifegain is only for during your turn. Is it worth it?
I don't think that Ob Nixilis of the Black Oath can give you a lot of value. It can be me but I don't like this card.
Why Elspeth, Sun's Champion? You get tokens for 6 mana or destroy all your creatures and some of the opponent creatures. Is that worth it? Or do you play it because you have it lying around?
For Aetherflux Reservoir you probably will never be high enough with this on the board. You don't cast a lot of spells in a turn so you must be happy if you gain 3 lives in a round from it. This is not the deck for it.
Moonlight Bargain is 5 mana + 10 lives for draw 5. Promise of Power is the better version of it. It is on sorcery speed, but cost 5 lives less and you can also get a big beater from it if you pay extra.
For now I think that you are not using enough instant speed tricks that require you to hold up mana. That makes that when you hold up mana for Batwing Brume there is a big chance that you don't need it now and want to cast it later instead. Making you not spend some mana in the round. I would skip this card.
If I look at the curve then I would think about playing 36/37/38 lands. You need a lot of mana for your creatures and you miss green to ramp well. You can use cards like Hagra Mauling Flip & Ondu Inversion Flip to make it a little easier.

Angels and Demon

I would get rid of Demonic Rising, Mark of the Oni, Expedite and Reign of the Pit.
I would replace Demon's Grasp with 4 copies of Terminate.
Demonic Vigor is fine but I wouldn't have 4 and it's low on the priority list of cards to keep.

Hogaak: My Favorite (Infinite) Combo Deck
4 years ago
I find EDH Hogaak fascinating as a deck.
I don't see Grafted Exoskeleton on your list actually, though you mentioned it in the comments. There's also Glistening Oil if you haven't considered it.
Birthing Pod + Hogaak --> Craterhoof is a combo not on here which is pretty clean, if not infinite.
I've been playing with Carrion and testing Path of Discovery / Beastmaster Ascension . I also feel like if literally any deck can make Awaken the Erstwhile viable, it's this one.
Was surprised to see no Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord , Creakwood Liege , or Izoni, Thousand-Eyed , but I haven't played this deck much, just theorycrafted.
Cards you may not have heard of that combo with Hogaak: Ooze Garden , Monkey Cage (lol), and Reign of the Pit .

The Ballad of Mad Cap'n Tom
5 years ago
Play Death's Shadow once you get your boss out. (It's like $10 though)
You have to protect your boss from removal if you want him to get counters from all the creatures that die. Aspect of Mongoose, Blessing of Leeches but mostly a Whispersilk Cloak will protect him and let him use those counters without being chump blocked.
Reign of the Pit would give you a huge creature and your boss gets all the counters as well
You don't seem to have any mana heavy cards so I'd go down to about 35 lands, let the cards you replace go for card draw

A Fun DEMONstration

I’d add Diabolic Tutor just to have another chance to get Liliana's Contract out.
