suppose it depends on your meta. 3cmc and a heavy restriction is going to hurt against other fast aggro. Ultimate price does hit alot of relevant creatures currently, so imo I think just a split between UP and dreadbore would be better.
If you'd have a deck that reliably hits BB, you'd rather want Victim of the Night.
If not, you should really just stick to Ultimate Price and still have a space for Mizzium Mortars in your 75 as it doesn't answer Loxodon Smiter.
With Br Zombies tearing up GPs lately, I don't think I'd want removal that dinks off the vast majority of that deck.

Degenerate? Sure. Loudmouth? You bet. Law abiding? No ****ing way.
Can you reliably make 1BB on 3? If no, you really can't run murder.
doesn't really have to be turn 3. probably around turn 4 is acceptable. absolutely agree about needing to be VERY conscious about mana consistency issues here though. Murder is not playable except in heavily black versions of the deck. the Zombie version of the deck might be able to support it though. in that context Murder is competing against Victim of Night for its slot.
Ultimate Price;
Pro's
1B is cheep and can be worked around after casting a creature.
Instant speed
Targets most of the threats in the meta
Con's
Does not target multi colored creatures
Murder;
Pro's
Targets everything except Hexproof
Instant speed
Con's
1BB is more restictive on mana base.
Higher CMC
Now, in the end, is the extra B to kill any creature regardless or do we go cheeper and keep our cuve down?
