I didnt played Peasant often, but i realy like it. I build a monoblack controlish deck, with alot of recursion going. I want to know what you think and if you have any ideas how i can improve it.

Creatures
4 Chittering Rats
4 Shriekmaw(Uncommon)
4 Pit Keeper
4 Nantuko Husk
4 Gravedigger
4 Phyrexian Rager
4 Faceless Butcher
1 Bone Shredder(Uncommon)
Spells
2 Footbottom Feast
4 Strangling Soot

Lands
17 Swamp
4 Mountain
4 Terramorphic Expanse

I guess the idea should be clear, kill opponents guys, trade all the time till your card advanatage kicks in(recursion + drawing + letting them put cards on top) and you win. Any ideas for the deck from you guys?

edit: I just saw that pestilence is common not sure if it fits in this deck what do you think(i dont like that i take damage cause of pestilence)

Nah, pestilence really requires a dedicated strategy to build around.

Some thoughts:

What is the red for? I don't think the soot is worth it on it's own. Play just B lands allows you to play and get maximum effect out of cards like tendrils of corruption could be good. Or chilling shade even.
I don't think you need 5 shriekmaws, I'd run something more useful in that slot like a consume spirit.
