This is what I'm adding to a deck that is basically the same thing.

{Underworld Dreams} (Already said)
{Liliana's Caress}
{Megrim}
{Waste Not}
{Reforge the Soul}

I know there's more but basically cards that just keep cycling their hand over and over. Take advantage of both the draw AND the discard (just make sure the cards that "cycle" the hand actually says player discards). So far, I've had a hard time making the deck consistent. Good luck.

I made a Grixis card discard/reanimator deck here. It might be kind of helpful. The deck runs a dual Commanders depending on the mood.

Dudcore, I do really like that idea of draw and discard, especially capitalizing on wheel type effects. I feel like that is the direction that I need to take this deck. Looking at your deck I feel like I'll have to invest in a  {Liliana of the Veil},  {Wheel of Fortune} and a  {Waste Not}. That interaction t2 and t3 is fairly powerful if playing with enough people. Plus the hate {Waste Not} would generate when all of the wheel effects start showing up.

Every now and then a card comes along like {Waste Not} that is just too good to pass up. I think opponents are more afraid of {Nekusar, the Mindrazer}. In my experience with Commander deck building is to keep bringing the heat. The more threats you put out, the sooner your opponents will run out of answers. And for the record, they will run out of answers.

Your opponents will never let you draw 5 cards, have 10 mana and 6 2/2 zombies ordinarily, which is why you do it turn 3 with a {Windfall}. It will draw hate, it should. It's pure advantage.
