Originally started with rotating  {Ghave, Guru of Spores}  {Karador, Ghost Chieftain} and  {Teneb, the Harvester} as commander. Now I just use karador. This deck is pretty fun, lots of ways to recur creatures. I've taken out most of the dredge I initially had. And this deck has had some interesting multi creature killing moments, such as  {Savra, Queen of the Golgari} with  recurring {Shriekmaw}

Looks like a pretty solid deck!

I notice you have very little {W} though. Have you considered taking out the white, and trying Jarad or Savra as the commander? You could replace all the white with sacrifice-friendly goodies.

Yeah I have been considering removing the white.. One of my friends is continually suggesting it. I think originally I wanted to incorporate some white or tokens and populate, and abandoned that immediately. I REALLY like the white creatures I have in here, like ghave, Valkyrie, and vish, as minimal in number as they are. I'm worried that the deck would be less fun at just two colors.

Well if you do keep the white in, I recommend adding {Debtor's Knell}. My own Karador reanimator deck uses it. It gets silly if you can it out and the {Buried alive} Sheoldred and Reya Dawnbringer.

Ahh I recently traded away my knell. I've considered returning it to a dredge heavy deck, but I've taken out the dredge for a lot of non-creature cards that I'd be worried about dredging to the graveyard and not getting back. When it was dredge heavy I could get 2-3 big creatures quick (grave troll and splinterfright for example) but the way it is now, I can get more creatures, but smaller ones. Each way it's been fun, but I def want to make it a little more aggressive
