Should have mentioned, the commander is Savra, Queen Of The Golgari

1 card too many. You could use a {Doubling Season}, {Garruk Relentless} and a {Bloodline Keeper}

There are a couple of potential color-identity problems with your list. The "Bringer of the (Color) Dawn" cycle is technically considered a 5-color card because it has all of the Mana symbols in it. {Tracker's Instincts} suffers from a similar problem (Blue in the Flashback). They are all fine cards if your playgroup is okay with overlooking the color-identity issue.

The {Measure of Wickedness} in your list is pretty cute. I like it. If I were to add it, I think I would want to run {Dowsing Shaman}.

I have also been working on {Savra, Queen of the Golgari} for the last few days. It still isn't a full 100-card list yet and I am very open to suggestions.

Savra, Queen of the Golgari 81 cards, 1 sideboard 1 {Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth} 14 {Forest} 1 {Terramorphic Expanse} 1 {Volrath's Stronghold} 1 {Terramorphic Expanse} 12 {Swamp} 1 {Evolving Wilds} 1 {Verdant Catacombs} 1 {Woodland Cemetery} 1 {Okina, Temple to the Grandfathers} 1 {Shizo, Death's Storehouse} 1 {Tainted Wood} 1 {Golgari Rot Farm} 1 {Svogthos, the Restless Tomb} 1 {Overgrown Tomb} 39 lands 1 {Bloodghast} 1 {Withered Wretch} 1 {Creakwood Liege} 1 {Fleshbag Marauder} 1 {Lord of Extinction} 1 {Demonlord of Ashmouth} 1 {Sakura-Tribe Elder} 1 {Corpse Connoisseur} 1 {Nighteyes the Desecrator} 1 {Spiritmonger} 1 {Deadwood Treefolk} 1 {Doomgape} 1 {Skinrender} 1 {Marrow Chomper} 1 {Reassembling Skeleton} 1 {Archdemon of Unx} 1 {Eternal Witness} 1 {Gleancrawler} 1 {Shambling Shell} 1 {Dimir House Guard} 1 {Bone Shredder} 1 {Grave-Shell Scarab} 1 {Shriekmaw} 1 {Vulturous Zombie} 24 creatures 1 {Victimize} 1 {Dread Return} 1 {Pernicious Deed} 1 {Attrition} 1 {Grave Pact} 1 {Greater Good} 1 {Phyrexian Reclamation} 1 {Necrogenesis} 1 {Mulch} 1 {Harrow} 1 {Kodama's Reach} 1 {Phyrexian Arena} 1 {Perilous Forays} 1 {Skullclamp} 1 {Worm Harvest} 1 {Life from the Loam} 1 {Putrefy} 17 other spells Sideboard 1 {Savra, Queen of the Golgari} 1 sideboard cards

Some notes:

At this point, I am trying to avoid putting in "staples" simply because they are generally accepted to be good but I am including the ones that are synergistic with the deck's plan. That means no {Primeval Titan} or
{Avenger of Zendikar} but I am okay with {Eternal Witness} and {Greater Good}.

{Shambling Shell} is kind of the poster child for what this deck wants to do. Sacrifice a creature and fill the graveyard. It is obviously on the low-end of the power spectrum but it does all of the things I want it to do for its cost.

{Worm Harvest}/{Life from the Loam} is another cornerstone of the deck. {Worm Harvest} is one of the few ways to make Black tokens without resorting to something extremely slow like {Breeding Pool}.

The card draw is still not entirely flushed out. {Altar's Reap}, {Night's Whisper}, and {Moonlight Bargain} are all cards I am considering. What else would be good in these slots?

Given that I want to use the graveyard as a resource, are there cards that I should be considering to protect it?

I feel like the deck currently has an identity and I just need the remaining 19 cards to flush it out, fill in holes, and bring it all together.

As I continue to flush out my last few cards, I added a number of good role players that synergize well with the rest of the deck:

+{Skeletal Vampire}
+{Sengir Nosferatu}
+{Hermit Druid}
+{Fauna Shaman}
+{Altar's Reap}
+{Plunge into Darkness}

Hopefully, some of these are useful to you.
