Thank you very much franjimen421! I really hope that you will see my answer to your comment.
I didn't know about the deck's hubs, so thanks a lot for telling me about it! After reading your comment I went and added a few things in that section.
When I built this deck, I really wanted to add instants - things like combat tricks and removals. When I tried I came across a problem: considering the fact that once you can you want to start dredging, non-creature card that get into the graveyard this way can't be used, the deck doesn't have a way to get these cards back into your hand. I know, I can use cards with Flashback, but I preferred the cards that I have right now. If you want, it is possible to add cards like Chainer's Edict as additional instants. By the way, the activation of Tortured Existence and Madness can be done during the opponent's turn - a great way to get a dredger into your graveyard on their end step, or to madness in a creature like Arrogant Wurm during combat, before blockers for example.
I know, there are more black sources on purpose. This is a an example of the problem in TappedOut's color pie: take a look at the cards Tortured Existence and Crypt Rats. Both cards are super important to the deck and both require lots of black mana to activate. If you think about it, you want to activate Tortured Existence many times each turn and in the late game Crypt Rats for at list four, usually on the same turn you cast it to avoid creature removal that will kill Rats. And if you take a look at the cards Arrogant Wurm and Golgari Brownscale, both have two green mana symbols in their mana cost, when in reality you're almost never going to cast Brownscale, and almost always going to cast Wurm for its madness cost. So when the color pie says that there are 22 green symbols, its an effective 15 symbols - there are 3 Brownscales and 1 wurm, so its minus 6 + minus 1 symbols.
I really appreciate your comment and upvote! it helps a lot, and I'm always happy to learn more and improve this precious deck. Thank you!

Great deck! Although, there are few things which are important:
1) You may want to add the deck's hubs, so people looking for similar decks will be able to find it more easily. This can be done in the deck editing section, so look for it.
2) Personally, I feel that the fact that the deck is missing instants is really important. Are there any instants good enough for the deck to use (even in the sideboard)? I suggest you search for them, 'Cause as you know, being able to do things in your opponent's turn is critical, and is some of the best reasons why MTG is an evershifting game.
3) If you look at the deck's colour pie down below, you can see that you have a little more black mana sources than you need. Did it ever bothered you? If so, I suggest that you try finding the balance between the colors and the lands.
A very solid build. Congratulations! A +1 from me.
