Hello guys, so im trying to make a lifegain token deck (my first custom deck) but the list has way too many cards and im not sure what to cut or replace, so any recomendations or suggestions will be taken into consideration.
the deck is mainly for playing among friends, and possibly for tournaments

Recommendation: Use moxfield

#

get Wrath of God instead of Fumigate

#

Your curve caps out at like 3 so

#

Way less ramp

#

Brave the Wilds isn't ramp it just replaces itself with a land

#

Tireless Provisioner isn't ramp

#

The Ring Goes South is ramp when you dont need it

#

Moonsilver Key is a tutor

#

Of Herbs and Stewed Rabbit isn't draw

#

Your curve is super low so I'd include Dark Confidant

#

Soul-Guide lantern is gy hate not removal

#

I wouldn't really consider Finale of Eternity removal

#

Feed the Cauldron is just a bad removal spell

#

Claim the Precious is 3 mana sorcery speed creature only removal

#

Shred memory is bad

#

For Removal you want Beast Within, Generous Gift, Assassin's Trophy, Anguished Unmaking, Putrefy, Mortify, Stroke of Midnight, Damn, Rite of Oblivion, Vindicate

#

This gives you 4 any permanent removal

#

3 non-land removal

#

2 efficient two mode removal, and 1 spot removal that doubles as a board wipe

#

Vanishing Verse is also good but typically wont remove commanders

#

Your draw is thematic and if you like that, that's fine but there are better options

#

Ramp you can have like Birds of Paradise, Ornithopter of Paradise, Arcane Signet, Sol Ring, Jaheira, Utopia Sprawl, Selesnya Signet, Orzhov Signet

#

These are generic recommendations ofc, if you want the deck to be thematic then I'd advise for you to keep the thematic choices but some cards are just straight up bad

#

Shred Memory being one of them, it's far too limited as a tutor, has no thematic relevance, and its actual use is also useless

#

Corrupted Conviction isn't great either, grab the 2 mana ones that let you sacrifice artifacts

#

Deadly Dispute for example

#

If it's in your budget, Mondrak, Ojer Taq, any of the green enchantments that double token creation, and anointed procession

#

That's all I got
