I like Torgaar as my Mono Black Stuff deck and am looking to trim the fat a bit. The Burglar Rat effects are up for cutting but I'm not sure what direction to go in.

Painful Quandary seems cool for when I set something to 20 with Torgaar?

I'm no ace when it comes to commander deckbuilding but if I had to make a couple if suggestions I'd recommend cutting Sanitarium Skeleton for one of the other black "Bloodsoaked" -creatures. Cult Conscript and Dread Wanderer come to mind.

Then there's always Stitcher's Supplier to grease the wheels a little.

Great ideas! I keep forgetting to pick up copies of the latest self-reanimating creatures.

My instinct is to use him as a weird life gain. Pay a bunch of life down super low and use him to bring me back to 20 and do it again lol.

Ad nauseum Bolas’s citadel Etc

I have Citadel already and use both it and Necropotence separately and together. I don't think I'm fast enough to capitalize on Ad Nauseum.

The weird life gain part is great, though! It feels very versatile during a game.
