When I saw Hapatra, Vizier of PoisonsI started to brainstorm. After doing some research I found may cards that work well with her effect. I haven't been able to test the deck out yet so don't know how well the deck runs verses aggro or control. If anyone has any ideas or advise that would make this better it would be helpful.
I'm also brewing Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons. Here's my list. How has yours been performing? I want to really fine tune this commander. Luckily, the second set of the block is bound to have a lot more cards to interact with -1/-1 counters, so I'm not too discouraged.

So I see that you have a lot of counter synergies in this deck, which is great! However, I think you should also have an explosive win available, given how many tokens you have and make. Perhaps consider some token/counter doublers, or a Pathbreaker Ibex to just smash someone in for victory?

Iv have been solitairing with it. It can get out of hand quickly, but then again i need to take kill spells, board wipes, and opponents creatures into account. Rebound ability I might need a few more reanimate spells like Puppeteer Clique (which i had forgotten about) Volrath's Stronghold and maybe even reanaimate.

I was finally able to play a few games, it runs like a champ but does need teeking. most of the time I would get the engine running but have nothing to do.
I'm surprised there aren't any infect creatures. Not because you need to go infect(although it is a win con if your deck isn't working in some situations). They force blocks, which racks up those -1 counters. Also Serrated Arrows with a proliferate synergy can be effective.
Have you considered doing Earthcraft like effects? You might not need as many mana dorks if there are enough of these type of effects, and -1/-1 counter support (Persist, Spells, etc.). Other cards to consider Decimator Beetle, Deity of Scars, Devoted Druid, Phyrexian Hydra

I've only managed to play my Hapatra deck twice, and I'm really liking it, but it definitely needs tweaking. Has your had any issues with running out of steam after eating a lot of removal? I'm hoping to make mine more consistent (without adding a bunch of tutors).
Also, have you considered Power Conduit as a way to negate some of the friendly fire counters that land on your creatures?
Lots of nice advice,this deck is coming a long nicely. After a lot of play tests I have found that it works reliably, needs better removal, and needs more mass -1/-1 counter generaters.
Also on a side note, cards that might need to find a way into the deck.
Beastmaster Ascension: Im kinda on the fence about this card, i under stand that it can win games. But it makes you the first target for aggression. It makes it hard to slither in and kill someone by surprise. Triumph of the Hordes: I not a fan of Infect, but this is to good not to play. Cauldron of Souls: + Mikaeus, the Unhallowed + Sac Outlet can win games or protect your board from wipes. Flesh-Eater Imp Love this card completely forgot about it. it fits on the curve and can protect you from fliers / kill a player. Skinrender might lose his place for this. Ichor Rats: His everyone evenly then proliferate. Skithiryx, the Blight Dragon: Flying, Infect, Regenerate? Enough said. Sidisi, Undead Vizier might lose her place for this, or get re replaced by Diabolic Intent. Soul Snuffers: Mass -1/-1 gold.
Beastmaster Ascension is too amazing to not ignore. With producing so many tokens, you can easily get the counters necessary to get the boon and protect your own creatures from mass -1/-1 counters. I run it in my own list and it's great.

That is not bad, it could be a scalable Hex will test that out.

I agree, maybe look into big fatties like Kokusho, the Evening Star, Mikaeus, the Unhallowed, Regal Force
and Cauldron of Souls + Necroskitter is a damn good card combo.
