So I've settled on the idea of finally creating an EDH deck dedicated to my greatest love in Magic, PHYREXIA!
I know it's going to be five colors with Reaper King as my General. However the theme I feel is more like a purge, to cleanse the fleshies and mold them anew. Mostly looking for destroy affects, hand cycling, shifting the field. Things of that matter. Also where can I find a list of all phyrexian cards. Please advise.

It might be difficult to find a list of all the phyrexian cards, but you can look through a visual spoiler of Scars block and get all the ones with the phyrexian watermark. Then I would search for key-words (not in the mechanics sense) and characters that should show up elsewhere in the history of magic from Phyrexian lore. Such as searching for Urborg or Yawgmoth
What about cards that repurpose people? That clean the mind (aka discard and wheels) or alter their field. I was thinking like Head Games and things of that nature.

Phyrexia is also my favorite faction from mtg. So I give you huge two thumbs up for this idea.
The praetor's would all be great options since you are running 5 color anyway. Tsebo Tvac is a great phyrexian with relevant abilities in edh.
I highly recommend the cards that give you value for life like Phyrexian Reclamation, the three mana 2/2 that draws cards. The guy that reanimates something when brought out.
Sorry the other names elude me at the moment. This could actually shape up to be a pretty strong deck considering there are a lot of realy strong cards on theme and semi-themed.
Some lands include Phyrexian Tower, Urborg Tomb of Yawgmoth, Volrath's Stronghold. You could also jam in combos that use devourer, dreadnaught, etc.
Good gatherer searches:
Phyrexian
Yawgmoth
Rath
Volrath
Also remember you can search by flavor text and what not.
Some very good on theme cards: Birthing Pod, Skullclamp, Phyrexian Processor.
You can search for ]watermarks on Gatherer - it gives you 254 cards, all of which I assume are from New Phyrexia. I would really dig into Urza's Saga for some fun Phyrexia cards full of Brother's War flavor.
