I'll think on it. Eater of the Dead is really good with Phenax
If you want some graveyard protection and/or control, add Trickbind, Stifle, Disallow.
Orbs of Warding and Witchbane Orb offer some protection from graveyard hate

Mirror matches can be pretty demoralizing for them. It's as if they've never heard of recursion.
I'm very interested in the Stifle suite. Also wanting to add Think Twice from yours; being able to win in response to attempted removal of my Maniac is a must and cyclers aren't enough. What would YOU cut, if I may ask? My emotions are making the list seem tighter than it is.

is Haakon, Stromgald Scourge worth it for Nameless Inversion and Glen Elendra Liege? I don't think Glen Elendra Liege is worth it at all even with Haakon.
Not sure if you have enough support for the Zombie subtheme. I'd go one way or the other with it. My initial thought is you're not getting enough value from it and you should either add more or get rid of it entirely. Gisa and Geralf, Graveborn Muse, Possessed Skaab
Dralnu scares me. I can see a deck being built around him but as a part of the 99, I think he'd backfire more than help.
Dragonlord Silumgar, Oona, Queen of the Fae, and Sire of Stagnation all seem a bit too much good-stuff for my tastes.
Sheoldred, the Whispering One rarely works out for me. Either she dies/exiled quick or she gets stolen/copied and it turns bad for me.
Hedron Crab might be a touch too slow compared to your other mill effects
I really want to like Disciple of Deceit (especially with Phenax) but it's the same mana cost. If it were same mana cost or less, I'd be all about it.
Can you get enough value out of Reassembling Skeleton?
Think Twice seems like a slam dunk replacement for Forbidden Alchemy

If you find yourself going the Living Death route more often, Grey Merchant of Asphodel wins games. I've won more games with Gary than with Rats.
I like King Macar with Phenax that's a good one :) I might steal Forgotten Creation. That's an interesting one.

I didn't even see the Zombie tag. I just saw a smattering of zombies that looked like the start of a sub-theme. I would either ditch most of the zombies or go more into the zombie subtheme and add some more support. Gray Merchant IS a zombie after all :)
I wouldn't run Dralnu unless the deck revolves around him simply because Blasphemous Act exists.
Fair point on Reassembling Skeleton. I know it can be very useful, just wasn't sure there was enough value in your deck. Looks like there is, I'd keep it.
I love Sheoldred. I wish I could run her more often. She just draws far too much hate for me.

Now a graveyard's tale isn't quite as nice, as the story we knew of sugar and spice. But a graveyard's easy once you get to know it, with the help of the magic of the necromancer device.
I do love my mill decks. Upvoted.

Elixir of Immortality and Feldon's Cane are good for protecting your graveyard.
Wall of Blood could be a fun rattlesnake card for a huge push of milling either yourself or an opponent. Especially potent if you add Gary.
Looks fun!

This deck is king of trolling your opponent. Lol
