Update:

Cuts are as follows

Minus:

Wasteland why: Im running Strip Mine and crucible in black still only means one land so I only need one instance of this interaction

K'rrik, Son of Ywagmoth why: better ways to "accelerate" that also aren't so lethal, also I have included better instances of smoothing the mana base in that this card in no longer relevant

Whip of Erebos why: slow, often removed, underwhelming

Gate to Phyrexia why: never saw use, took up space in hands to ofter or when on field saw little use

Culling the Weak why: see k'rrik

Hellish Rebuke why: underwhelming and generates little value

Addtions:

Jet Medallion why: Mana Acceleration

Moonsilver Key Why: Curve Smoothing

Innocent Blood Why: Efficient Removal

Myriad Landscape why: Curve Smoothing

Henrika Domnathi  ^Flip Why: great interaction with the deck as well as controls board well, offers an alternative to Wrankle or another instance of similar effects

Dying to Serve Why: token generator that works well with Opposition and other global discard effects

Future Thoughts:

I'm looking to cut the Op Agent and Maralen Combo, i'm considering the Geth's Grimoire + Words of Waste combo in place of it. still looking for some instances of mana smoothing in black Burnished Hart comes to mind. Any other suggestions are welcome.

I haven't updated this deck in forever. Cut 3 cards to add the Geth's Grimoire + Words of Waste combo to try out. I'm also dismantling my old standard deck to add Crux of Fate Later.

I would cut Skull Rend and Syphon Mind for cards like Pain Magnification and Words of Waste. Another good Discard engine is Geth's Grimoire + Words of Waste if you care about running combos. Crux of Fate and Deathbringer Regent is a cheep Wrath option. I also see that you are running rituals you don't really need them, maybe run Nirkana Revenant in its place.
