Sanguine Spy

Creature — Vampire Rogue

Menace, lifelink

, Sacrifice another creature: Look at the top card of your library. You may put that card into your graveyard.

At the beginning of your end step, if there are five or more converted mana costs/mana values among cards in your graveyard, you may pay 2 life. If you do, draw a card.

Yeah, I hear that. If you really want the draw, Sanguine Spy might be slightly better: The card is slightly more expensive to cast, but you don't have to pay mana for the draw, you don't have to sacrifice creatures for it, and the life payment is easily recouped directly by the card itself. Greed is also another option if you just have excessive amounts of life to spend.

I like Doom Whisperer quite a bit given enough life you can chuck usually about half your library into your graveyard while keeping essential cards on top. Otherwise some one time uses are Benefaction of Rhonas, Gather the Pack, and Commune with the Gods

Tomb Robber, Undercity Informer, Sanguine Spy are nice as they are also outlets for discard and sacrificing respectively.

For indiscriminate mill I use Splinterfright, Nyx Weaver, and Perpetual Timepiece.

If you are running creature heavy Altar of Dementia (Doubles as a win con) and if you run big creatures I like Greater Good.

Songs of the Damned, World Shaper, and Skull Prophet are usually an auto include for me if I'm chucking creatures into my graveyard.
