Not sure if Sengir Autocrat would help out/fit in, it's an evil rich person who comes with several tokens you can sacrifice. I think there is a similar vibe for Ogre Slumlord, both of those feel like rich town folk that are exploiters, and both provide you with fodder to sacrifice.

Not sure what kind of decks you face, but if they don't play as many creatures as you then Thalia, Guardian of Thraben is a Thalia that's depicted as a person of colour. Thalia is really good vs decks that rely on non-creature spells, but if your group is all creature aggro then she's just a 2/1 with nice art.

Are you playing 1v1? Rhystic Tutor is a really bad card if you play against more than 1 opponent because it's so rare for nobody to have held up mana, and it's a sorcery so you can only use it on your own turn. If you have any cards that are 'good' in the graveyard then I'd replace Rhystic with Jarad's Orders or Final Parting, Orders has a voodoo feel, Parting is a bit tougher, but it's a really good card fwiw, especially if you're on a budget. If you need an on-theme card that likes being in your graveyard I think Skyclave Shade seems a decent fit, it could easily be an underworld spirit that just keeps coming back, like the ones serving Shadow Man/Dr Facilier.

With your Commander having Deathtouch (and you running Vault of the Archangel) I wonder if some Trample sources would work? I like Brawn an awful lot, and your Commander can sacrifice it, if your opponent blocks a creature with Deathtouch and Trample you only need to deal 1 damage to destroy each blocking creature, so the rest goes through. It doesn't have much story connection I can think of, but Scavenged Brawler is pretty good with your Commander, none of the keywords overlap, and your Commander with Vigilance and Trample is really scary.

It's a bit clunky but Kothophed, Soul Hoarder is a pretty strong card if you expect your opponent to lose creatures regularly, with your Commander you will be killing a lot of creatures, so you'll draw some cards I expect. Kothophed could represent those dark powers who hold Shadow Man's debt? Kothophed offers lots of power, but it comes at a price.

Lot of my suggestions are leaning into tokens because Blood Avatar clearly wants that, and if i can find a spell that makes tokens than Extus will be happy too. Thats my idea.

Big Score, Unexpected Windfall, Blood for Bones, Rakdos Charm, Fiery Confluence, Crackle with Power, Storm King's Thunder, Bonus Round, Sram's Expertise, Electrodominance, Jaya Ballard, Liliana, Dreadhorde General, Elspeth, Sun's Champion, Assemble the Legion, Secure the Wastes, Call the Coppercoats, Fury Storm, Ashnod's Altar, Prosperous Partnership, Divine Visitation

Let's take a short break here, because you need better creatures. Creatures that have VALUE as you recast them over and over, maybe even discard outlets. I hate to say it (and i'm not going to list them) but Aristocrat creatures are ideal here because they are cheap, and gain life which can then be used to cast wild stuff like Bolas's Citadel.

Dragonmaster Outcast, Viscera Seer, Cathar Commando, Leonin Relic-Warder, Mondrak, Glory Dominus, Lagomos, Hand of Hatred, Pitiless Plunderer, Mahadi, Emporium Master, Woe Strider, Ophiomancer, Mayhem Devil, Children of Korlis, Insolent Neonate, Elenda, the Dusk Rose, Sengir Autocrat, Syr Konrad, the Grim, Sun Titan

Also if this just ins't the direction you wanna go thats ight

Thanks Asgeren

I looked at yours and love the theme. Probably going to switch Baleful Mastery for Faceless Butcher. Repeatable creature exile sounds fantastic. I've been building this deck towards really explosive turns and discard effects to slow down the table. Sengir Autocrat is a great way to get sac fodder and will probably replace on of the higher cost cards in the deck.

Cut Suggestions=

• Ichor Wellspring, great rate for drawing but you have plenty of draw spells + commander.
• Gravecrawler, Nether Traitor, Bloodghast, Endless Cockroaches since you are adding a level of recursion into the deck, these guys are obsolete, since we would rather have cards that have ETB or dies triggers. We can re-evaluate if you are having problems finding creatures to sac.
• Darkness, hopefully with your lifegain this card would be dead.
• Dauthi Voidwalker, while an awesome card it doesn't really fit the mold, and we need to make cuts.
• Swiftfoot Boots, I would find out how often your commander gets hated off the board before deciding if you need this.
• Demonic Pact, I love the fact that you can get around the negative of this card, but it is slow and we need to cut cards.
• Weatherlight Compleated, slow.

Add Suggestions=

• Black Market Connections, draw, ramp, and fodder all in one.
• Yahenni, Undying Partisan, one of the best sac outlet ever.
• Great Unclean One, both drain and fodder. I think he would be better than Sengir Autocrat
• Phyrexian Tower, sac outlet and ramp.

Edit= - Bolas's Citadel can also be considered card draw.

I always get reminded of the Count when I see the old Sengir Autocrat - such great art {B}

Metroid_Hybrid on Fool, this isn't even my …

A general theme while crafting this deck has been the single-minded focus on assembling the Undying combo itself; which became even more pronounced after the Pre-Modern transformation. Basically anything that wasn't a part of the central combo was to be draw spells & tutors for assembling said combo. A part of this early-on was eliminating as many Humans from the list as possible, because they're total "nonbos" with Mikaeus, the Unhallowed. However, what you're suggesting actually has me reconsidering Sengir Autocrat. I had actually forgotten all about the Autocrat because I originally ran the Eternal Masters reprint.

From the sounds of it— for {3}{B} I get up to 4 chump blockers and/or sac fodder for Yawg-daddy. Sounds decent enough...

So here's what I thinking at this point:

• Read the Bones --> Imperial Seal

• Gray Merchant of Asphodel --> Sengir Autocrat

• Ogre Slumlord --> Wasteland

• Snow-Covered Swamp --> Strip Mine

As a final note, I don't have a particular "meta" to reference because the shops I go to are both fairly populated and random, multiplied by the fact that I don't get to play as often as I used to..

Hi killer_eye, I think Ruthless Technomancer is usable, definitely dependent on the 99. Solves the haste issue like you stated. You could also use it with cards like Old Rutstein and Sengir Autocrat too. It could be worth testing out.
