Vengeful Pharaoh would be an sb card in my metta, but in yours it might me an mvp.
1 darkblast could be cut, or a one-of anything.

One last thing, I feel like Lotleth Troll is too strong to be only a 2 of. Especially with you having 23 things you want to discard.

With 3 lftl I'd run more toolbox lands and also some retrace cards.

Delirium seems kinda weak, as for vengevines I think they are not a must but I'd run then.

I think it is a modern sb card, in delver and control mirrors.

It's so tragic how little attention these decks get, they're amazing!
hough sadly I don't know enough about vintage or legacy to give any advice at all.

Sounds about right. When I taught ppl how to play I explained the 5 colors then the 2 color combinations and did all the stuff you did from there.
Except here in Slovakia it's pretty hard to make people understand everything.

As for your deck I'm not sure, just as I'm not sure on any of mine, it really needs a lot of testing considering that you always try to stop your opponent and that isn't always achieved the same way.
Spreading Algae is a siver bullet.
Vs back decks you just win
If you draw urborg it is like a sinkhole
If you don't draw urborg it gets discarded or does noting.
Overall pretty good.

Thank you and yeah I included imps to get through the deck faster.
As for loam-pox-if-only it's an "if only" deck, this is what I would build if I won a million.
Yes the lack of looting hurts so much, the card is often draw 2 for 1 man WITH FLASHBACK!
As for me having 10 decks that are basically the same. Yes absolutely they are the same except for a few cards, I just wanted to throw as many ideas out there so that when I get around to building a pox deck irl I'll have all my ideas stored somewhere.

I think it's trying to do too many things at once but that might not be the case in practise.

I don't see the point of Leechridden Swamp.

Idk, it seems so scattershot that it might not be scattershot at all :D

Hmm, First of all I really like the originality and the fresh approach.
It is pretty hard to properly judge a deck like this without playing it.

I really like the phoenix, I wish it was a cast though.

I think Vengeful Pharaoh is unnecessary, I don't think the value it gives or the wall it provides is something you need, gnaw to the bone is better imo.

The squee synergy seems amazing! I Really love it! And cuz you are running Fauna Shaman I think some silver bullet creatures could work.

Thank you for your comment, I really appriciate it. Yes I made the deck, and about
6 other pox decks myself.
As for green"

Yeah, crime isn't super amzing here but it does the trick well enough. There is also as scare factor to it, it forces your opponents to use it or lose it.

Tibalt seems like he could fit, I'll think on him.
I don't think I want imp here, if anywhere I want him here:
http://www.mtgvault.com/theswarmer/decks/budget-modern-squee-pox-v2/
or here http://www.mtgvault.com/theswarmer/decks/budget-modern-black-pox/
and maybe here http://www.mtgvault.com/theswarmer/decks/budget-modern-black-pox-2/
Not sure what to cut though as I have not built any of these YET. I intend to proxy them, test them and then build what seems the most fitting.
Or I'll build this http://www.mtgvault.com/theswarmer/decks/budgetish-golgari-dredgevine/

I think I will cut down on the bolts and put in an imp and a tibalt. Thank you again!

Whoa, whoa, whoa! 71 cards and 21 lands!? How's that ever gonna work?
I think you should cut all the cards that don't contribute to your goal enough, from what I can see your goal iss to burn the opponent down, so cut all the cards that don't do that well enough.

I completely agree with DedWards, scales would be rad in here,
What I'd do is focus on giving him hexproof and counters, I'd cut the hydra(to 0 or 2) and cut Slippery Bogle, put in primal cocoon and forced adaptation and some hexproof enchantments. But this is the kinda deck that I'd have to test in a meta similar to yours in order to give a proper feedback.

Overall I like the deck, I especially like the approach you took, may not be the most effective one but definitely is a new and interesting one.

I wish I had come up with that combo myslef! I think I watched a gameplay vid where the pox player was playing both these cards, so I chcecked the list, chceked the cards and fell in love with the combo.

The tendrills were just a quick filler I threw in there.

I built a second version:
http://www.mtgvault.com/theswarmer/decks/budget-modern-black-pox-2/
I'll build both and see how they fare. This one I think will be more consistant, it has no Squee, and Squee as good as he may be can produce some really dead draws.
Though the infestation combo will be missed as it can produce blockers until you find that Haakon combo or death cloud or whatever.

Ideas:
MUST RUN BURRIED RUIN!!!
I think that rack is much better than the Bloodchief Ascension here
1 more Smallpox
Plague Cauldron

BUT I LOVE YOUR LIST!
Finally I found a good sutai one! Thank you!

You might be a bit too lftl dependant though, maybe more serum visions?
