I am looking to buy this today, so some help optimizing would be swell. :)

If you're going to have Corpsejack Menace / Kalonian Hydra in there, I would suggest a few more creatures that interact with +1/+1 counters.
Lotleth Troll is a fantastic card and would become highly recommended.
Nemesis of Mortals is a decent choice, although like Nighthowler you might want to consider a bit more self-mill if you're going that route.
Experiment One would be a pretty decent choice as well.

If you are going to have Nighthowler in the deck, and if you wanted to add Nemesis of Mortals, I would suggest some self-mill. Grisly Salvage and Commune with the Gods work, but in your deck I would say go with Deadbridge Chant. It is a great late game card and very cheap. If you added Lotleth Troll that would also help.

I have to be honest, I've never liked Vraska the Unseen. Her +1 doesn't really gain you anything, it only makes the opponent have to trade a creature to deal with her. Her -3 isn't bad, but it's a steep cost. Her -7 is really cool of course, but unreliable and hard to pull off since they'll see it coming. If you're in a board state where Vraska will win the game for you, you've already won anyway.

Also, this might sound strange, but Golgari Charm is mostly a sideboard card. I'd say only run 1-2 in your maindeck, and keep the rest in sideboard to deal with more consistent removal.

Maybe Varolz the Scar-Striped. He's decent too, although he doesn't interact so well with Nighthowler/Nemesis of Mortals
