Boris makes mini-Demons. There are plenty of cards that care if a Demon is on the battlefield and cards that like to eat stuff, and apparently Demons are cannibals...Boris doesn't mind, he lost his mind long, long ago...
This deck is very casual and leans a lot on flavor, not power. I'd like suggestions to make it better, but please keep it budget and if possible very flavorful
I'm not sure how useful Engineered Plague will be against non-tribal decks. I think that a potentially more useful card would be Kormus Bell. With Urborg, the Bell, the Conspiracy, and Rakdos, you sacrifice NO lands or creatures, but your opponent sacrifices half their permanents. Of course, if the bell is the only artifact or enchantment around, you'll have to sacrifice it, but then, you still have all your permanents and they have none (assuming you connected). A recurrable artifact recovery would tip this into insanity!
Edit: I did me a search, and it looks like the only viable choice would be Goblin Welder for any type of returning artifacts. Also useful for targeted destruction of enemy artifacts if they have some in their graveyard!

Oh, me likey! Very cool interaction, that sneaky Kormus Bell I put it right in!
It's sort of random, but cyclopean tomb would add a lot of flavor here - with the various mana tricks you're potentially able to totally shut down a non-black deck over the course of a longer game by turning all of their lands into swamps.
Too bad it's not "tomb of demons" for more flavor, but I figure the tomb part might be good enough for it to be fun here.
Worst case you're drawing major artifact hate.
Nether Traitor & bloodghast also make really excellent recurring food. Nether Traitor is especially fun because you can build up crazy mana and scare people with Black Market counters, etc.
edit - also check out tombstone stairwell - could be fun to add lots of crunchy zombies for your demons.
