Sinkhole: Not so hot, black doesn't capitolize on the tempo as well as say red does, and even when it does the efficiency of this being 2 mana doesn't matter as much. Goblin Ruinblaster: Was good, but there are a million more interesting more consistent 4 drops (Which is what this is) Acidic...

Blind Obedience does more than you think on it's own, since extort is a more reliable source of reach than it looks. Imposing Sovrein also has proven the mini-kismit is useful as well

Honestly, if you're going for a theme, I'd jam all the extort guys you can. Maybe even

Neither! Run the Invasion ones! Ancient Spring Geothermal Crevice Irrigation Ditch Sulfur Vent Tinder Farm

Glibness aside, Cipher is another one of those mechanics which a huge huge upside which makes it hard to balance. Say for example we have a cruel edict with cipher. How much should it cost? Well, it's an edict, so it'll cost at least 2. Cipher probably adds some mana, but how much? What should...

Love me some tangle wire. CML: No love for molten rain? I like a good disruptive spell, and I find the 2 damage is what makes it worth it over say, stone rain or sinkhole.

Sure: Ophidian Eye

Eric, it reminds me you don't have access to goblin bombardment. Is it time to double up on Blasting Station? Might give lucas here some much needed reach

I'll admit, I don't see contract being better than necropotence. I also don't see necro being too good. Greed Maybe? Sweet new art in C13

I've got this irrational love of Standing Troops (and it's most recent iteration: Priests of Norn) I think a 2/4 vigilence might actually do it in cube, but this guy is at least synergistic

Hey Guys, is this guy fair? {2}:w: Double Strike, Vigilence 1/4

If you really wanna go deep, consider this EDH beast I occasionally run: Necrologia

Jack in the Mox is strong, but aggravating to play with most of the time. Mox Diamond is my favorite, not only because it fixes mana properly, but discarding a land is usually easier than exiling a card most of the time, and the side interactions with cards like life from the loam. I'd venture...

Not at all, since it won't actually revolutionize the cube, just add another aggro color. Gravecrawler and Birthing Pod are whole new decks, this is just blue's answer to Isaumaru :P

Consistency Mostly

Tappers are removal spells which synergize with other removal spells (If you bonfire out your oppoent, the next guy they have just gets tapped), but are weak to removal spells (Since you can just kill the tapper and get your guy back) Honestly I think the best one of these for actually...

Searing Meditation?

Owen's winning deck from standard a bit ago was entirely mono black, the only blue mana symbols in the deck were nightveil specter. Still ran 3 temple of deceit though.
