Im looking to dedicate one more slot for a discard outlet alongside Survival of the Fittest in my Teneb deck, and was wondering what everyone's input would be for that. Liliana of the Veil is good, but I don't particularly want to feed into opposing reanimation strategies, just myself
So I'm leaning towards Nostalgic Dreams at this point unless someone else has some good recommendations.
Thanks

Check out NoShyfts, the webcomic that I illustrate for!
On Mythic Rares: "What's next, Wizards will print six golden Black Lotuses and randomly place them in boosters, and if someone gets one, they get to tour the Wizards facility?"
Do you want a one-time effect or would you rather have something repeatable? Nostalgic Dreams is a fine card (although I'd rather play Sickening Dreams), but if you need a repeatable effect, you could run Fauna Shaman (if you're not already), Lotleth Troll, or one of the spellshapers (Bog Witch and Silverglade Pathfinder are pretty good).
Edit:
Trading Post is another option, but I think the other options in your colors are better.
Or if you want to set a pile of money on fire: Bazaar of Baghdad.
Mindslicer is excellent in GWB, and Greater Good is just fantastic all around. Another interesting option you could try is Insidious Dreams. Put X cards on top of your library with a draw spell at the very top.
Mask of Memory is a decent draw effect if you have some evasive creatures in your deck. Someone else already suggested the spellshapers, but there are also the ones from the time spiral block, which include multiple token generators. Dunno if you have anything to take advantage of that...
Also, you could add extra graveyard removal effects to make up for the effects of Lillana.
yah, I totally run greater good already, and it's always insane, but for some reason I forgot that it's actually a discard outlet ontop of being a sac-engine. insane.. undead gladiator is a very cool card I've never hear of, but perhaps it's tough to beat the utility of tortured existence or nostalgic dreams.. liliana of the veil paired with more GY hate is another cool suggestion.
thanks guys

Bazaar of Baghdad is also good, but expensive (in money, not mana). There's also dredge, though it's not a true discard outlet as much as it simply fills your graveyard and hopes you get what you want (but until you do, there's nothing wrong with it).
It should be noted that you can bloodrush Skarrg Goliath and friends and then have Teneb resurrect them.
Card advantage is not the same thing as card draw. Something for 2B cannot be strictly worse than something for BBB or 3BB. If you're taking out Swords to Plowshares for Plummet, you're a fool. Stop doing these things!

I draft and play EDH. If a Standard player can't understand who a card is for, it's probably for me.
I also write things about good films.
Survival of the Fittest if you can afford it.
Undead Gladiator is pretty nice and is reusable.
Liliana of the Veil can also be removal.
More recently...
Grisly Salvage lets you dig.
Lotleth Troll is pretty aggressive in some builds.
Don't forget Crucible of Worlds and Life from the Loam for when you inevitably end up discarding lands. Land recursion also offers the opportunity to run Armageddon and friends.
