I think an interesting card for the deck (as a 1 or 2 of) would be Talons of Wildwood from M19. While it isn't one mana and seems underwhelming compared to the two auras already in the deck, it still makes Evershrike a 5/5, it gives trample, and (relevantly) it is an aura you can return to your hand if you put it in the graveyard and don't have any auras in hand. It costs a bunch of mana, but it would mean in games where you're not under a clock but don't have anything going on you can simply dredge into Talons of Wildwood then take a turn or two returning it to hand and reanimating an Evershrike with it. I think it's better than the 3 mana dredge aura since that one requires 5 lands to reanimate Evershrike whereas with Talons of Wildwood it is feasible to take turn 3 off to return it then return Evershrike with it turn 4 if you for instance mill both off Stinkweed. Obviously the card is super bad, but there were a couple time the deck had to luck into a card to reanimate Evershrike when a copy or two of Talons of Wildwood would've made Evershrike an immediate threat (5/5 is still a quarter of someone's life total). Additionally, while less relavant, in a REALLY long game it can be returned to hand then discarded to Faithless Looting for card advantage, but it's more interesting as a way to get an aura from dredging. It could probably replace 1 or both copies of Bloodsoaked Champion since they both sort of do the same thing but Talons is better with the primary plan of the deck and doesn't require attacks.

@Saffron Olive, I'm wondering if you can do a series in which you revisit decks already played but with improvements. I'd be happy to work with you guys on that series. I think this deck might want 4 Viscera Seer since it can sac your Sitcher's Supplier and protect your creatures from exiling effects and Terminus. I also think you should play Sweltering Suns instead of Anger because you don't want to Anger away your team. The two of Fatal Push seem unnecessary. I think Collective Brutality might just be better, or just replace them with 2 more Viscera Seer. Maybe Talons of Wildwood or Aspect of Mongoose could make the cut. Commune with the Gods is also great since it can find an Enchantment while also binning creatures. Below is my updated list. I haven't yet thought about if your manabase needs to be improved though. // 60 Maindeck // 24 Creature 4 Stinkweed Imp 4 Viscera Seer 4 Stitcher's Supplier 4 Evershrike 4 Satyr Wayfinder 4 Bloodghast // 8 Enchantment 4 Wreath of Geists 4 Rancor // 2 Instant 2 Grisly Salvage // 20 Land 2 Blackcleave Cliffs 4 Verdant Catacombs 4 Bloodstained Mire 2 Wooded Foothills 1 Blood Crypt 2 Overgrown Tomb 1 Stomping Ground 2 Swamp 1 Forest 1 Mountain // 6 Sorcery 4 Faithless Looting 2 Commune with the Gods // 15 Sideboard // 4 Enchantment SB: 4 Leyline of the Void SB: 2 Ancient Grudge SB: 4 Assassin's Trophy SB: 3 Damnation SB: 2 Collective Brutality

Ad nauseum plays pact of negation, so nix can only help you force trough your counters and not counter Ad nauseum itself like negate, spell pierce or dispell do. Vs bloomless titan it's still a bit narrow, but probably better than vs the other decks. If your local meta plays the right decks you can try it, but in generall it's terrible.
