Here's my deck that revolves around Corpsejack pumping out counters. I've playtested it fairly extensively and have lost almost every single game. I rarely get a chance to play Corpsejack and when I do he doesn't seem to do much. I'm considering just scrapping this deck altogether. I've also subbed some Altar's Reap s in there for a few games but they didn't help much.

Creatures
3 x Arbor Elf
4 x Corpsejack Menace
2 x Dreg Mangler
1 x Mikaeus, the Unhallowed
2 x Necropolis Regent
2 x Primordial Hydra
3 x Slitherhead
4 x Strangleroot Geist
1 x Ulvenwald Tracker
4 x Young Wolf

Spells
1 x Abrupt Decay
1 x Rancor
2 x Murder
2 x Naturalize
2 x Grisly Salvage
3 x Prey Upon
1 x Hunger of the Howlpack

Land
10 x Forest
10 x Swamp
1 x Overgrown Tomb
1 x Woodland Cemetery

If you need serious help, call your local suicide hotline.  They'd be glad to provide you with the assistance you need to get over this troubled time in your life.

It was revealed to me in a dream.  All the cards were in my dream except for three slots which I plugged in as Vault Skirge.

FULL DISCLOSURE:  The dream was post AVR so there was a copy of Slayer's Stronghold.  I decided to keep it pre AVR in my post here.

EDIT: I just remembered.  The Skirges might have been 2x Whipflare and 1x something else, probably War and Peace.

EDIT2:  Currently 4-0 in my first four games with this.  My opponents have been very angry.  I fought off a Wurmcoil from Grixis for six turns before I found my second Dispatch.  Jeez, I can do a lot of damage.

EDIT3: Streak broken.  Lost to an unexpected Overrun.    Cracking a Shrine for 10 wasn't enough.

You need to decide if you're going ramp or aggro. Either way throw in 4 evolving wild for mana fixing and farseek for acceleration/fixing.

For ramp
Try focusing on green and then splash black... Have you thought about Predator Ooze with t4/t3 menace that's a 3/3 indestructible attacker that's only going to get bigger... add more rancor for additional cackles. Triumph of Ferocity allows for additional card draw. Lifegain cards such as Thragtusk and Disciple of Bolas allows you to survive to the late game. Be careful about overextending your hand into sweepers (don't play everything asap...leave some tricks and creatures just in case)

For agro
Revenge of the hunted works well with alpha strikes to finish off your opponent. Else I would probably just suggest less expensive creatures at no higher than 5 cmc.

Have you considered Death's Presence ? It appears like it would do well since you are wanting your creatures to die.
