    Just getting back into MTG and was wondering if I was overlooking any good cards for infect.
    Any suggestions/criticism are greatly appreciated, especially on the sideboard. I don't really know what's popular in MTG so I don't know any decent sideboard cards.
                          Thanks!  :)

I have a green black infect deck. I love it when I can drop an {undying evil} and a {hunger of the howlpack} combo to boost up a little guy like a glistener elf.
I've also found that {rot wolf} is great, and {grim affliction} is also worth including.

There are of course so many different ways to go about it. My deck is built mainly around cheap guys that I pump for massive hits when they let one thru. But it's issue is games that go too long. I can't deal with stuff like a rapidly growing zombie horde, or stuff that continually removes my guys before I can attack with them. so that's something to think about I guess.
Having 1 {contagion engine} to help slow down my demise with the double proliferate, and a couple I {contagion clasps} as a cheaper version.

I've also seen some pretty good green blue infect decks with unblockables that really hurt.
With those evolving wilds in there you could splash a third colour (blue) if you didn't think it would hurt the rest of your deck. Otherwise I dont think you need them so much.

I actually was thinking about adding 2 islands and taking out 1 forest and 1 swamp if I could find some good blue infect creatures... Preferably ones that have this unblockable thing you mentioned ;) there was also a blue creature with cost of 3 and one blue or 2 life that comes into play as copy of target creature.... Interested me a bit but idk how that'd play in the deck
      I had thought about a different kind of infect deck that focuses on proliferate effects with cards like ichor rats and virulent wounds but I can't think of any other ways to put easy counters on em. And I do like that corpse cur but what would I take out?

{blighted agent} and if you can chuck a {silver in-laid dagger} on him an watch them freak. Lol or just hit it with a {titanic growth} :) or both
There are a few other blue infect guys like {viral drake} but the smaller black flyers like the stingers would be a more practical choice.
Also there's the proliferate enchantment {inexorable tide} which might be worth making room for?

I also include {necropede} am {core prowler}
The advantage of them is the uncoloured mana, so you won't be screwed trying to play them early, and they have either cheap removal mechanic or proliferate. I also try and include {undying evil} as its my favorite card at the moment. :) so many uses!
