I'm looking to play a little cut one, add one tonight. Help me update this list, friends. Try to keep it reasonable and technical and try to avoid staple suggestions, unless you've got a really good argument.

There are cool tech pieces from standard decks worth checking out like : proft eidetic memory, duelist of the mind, freestrider lookout, spelunking, iridescent vinelasher maybe doppelgang. Spymaster’s vault from MH3 is a hell of a card if you have a decent setup.
Would you consider cutting a Forest for Khalni Garden? Feels like a small tweak that could keep the ball rolling while having micro-synergy with Avenger?
I feel silly for missing Poison-tip Archer for my own Z&D.
Do you want to avoid loops or non-deterministic combos? Bounce lands and Field of the Dead have fueled a few of my wins with the pair. (Swap w/ basics)
Skeletal Swarming is a pet card I fit in to make bodies. (Uh… Nadir Kraken?)
Last two suggestions, sac lands, as in sacking via lands! If the mana base has been close to on point, a small sacrifice of color fixing gives you a sac outlet and a small amount of life gain.
Just read High Market and got to "If it can't be had here" when my brain helpfully supplied "You're Family." So I'll have to try one. And apparently, some soup salad and breadsticks.
I've really liked Bramble Sovereign in my Zimone & Dina list. It's just been really useful to double up on some creatures, and especially if I've reanimated them. Maybe awaken the woods as a potential cut? It's after 3am though, so I'm not as confident on that suggestion.
Probably too late, since it’s not “tonight” any more. And while I do love Steve, I’d swap him out with Chittering Dispatcher. With its myriad ability, you’d be getting up to 4 enters/leaves triggers and also have two colorless generating token creatures to sac around if you need them.
I've added both of these to my Z&D deck recently and they're great. I'm also a big fan of the bounce lands in the deck, since you can bounce them back to hand if you don't have any other land drops to make so you can keep triggering Landfall (particularly good with Bloodghast too)

It's basically Landfall Aristocrats though it needs some gears to really get going. Obviously Thornbite Staff is the best card in the deck

Nadir Kraken
Awaken the Woods
Potenial Add in:
Druid of Purification
Elvish Visionary
Aether Channeler

I find ETB to be better than on KO just to guarantee you get value off of them in case you don't get a sac outlet going.
