Deck discussion for Mad Looting

Well to start you run far more black than blue spells, so increase your swamp to island ratio accordingly or add some dual lands, Creeping Tar Pit is my personal favorite for blue/black decks.

I'd also look into some alternate ways to discard cards in order to trigger your madness costs, perhaps add some more merfolk and lessen the amount of madness creatures. Blue has a lot of good draw and discard spells, and black has some great discard mechanics as well. Breakthrough, Careful Study, & Compulsion are some good examples of blue draw/discard spells, and both Zombie Infestation and Tortured existence work well on blacks' end.

I'd also advise looking into some creature removal spells beyond Big Game Hunter, and some ways to produce extra mana in case you simply have to pay your cards normal costs. Cabal Coffers is great in mono-black decks, and Dark Ritual, while only giving black mana, seems like a good fir for this decks color ratio.

Hope any of this helps :) It's a good start.
