Looks ok for the most part. No Exhume or Reanimate ? What about Kokusho, The Evening Star ?

No. Grim Tutor and Imperial Seal though.

Carrion Feeder as a combo piece. Phyrexian Arena

Leyline of the Void , obviously. Patriarch's Bidding too. Disciple of the Vault is another obvious inclusion. I'd estimate that you have 25-30 correct on your list.

Yawgmoth's Will is the best card ever, so it definitely belongs on the top of this list. The top 5 should be like this:

1. Yawgmoth's Will
2. Yawgmoth's Bargain
3. Demonic Tutor
4. Necropotence
5. Vampiric Tutor

The only way you can really do this is if you go through every black card ever printed card by card and do sort of a:

Yawgmoth's Bargain
Mana Cost: 1 It costs 6.
Originality/Is it the only card that can do this: 4 Stolen from Necropotence, but Necro doesn't allow you to put them directly to hand.
Ability: 5
P/T: N/A
Over all: 3.33
