Deck help?

Hey guys.

I have had one of my decks for months now, and it needs a bit more improving. Even though I have about an 85% chance of victory, I feel like this deck still needs work. What my deck's focuses consist of are the following:

• Abzan
• Lifegain
• Creatures
• Enchantment Auras
• Artifact Equips
• Artifacts
• Humans
• Sorceries

Kind of a long list of focuses, but it all works very well together. Keep in mind that I don't do FNM tournaments, and that my friends and I run 80 card decks. Here are the cards:

Lands
• x6 Forests
• x7 Plains
• x5 Swamps
• x1Blighted Steppe
• x1 Stirring Wildwood
• x1 Jungle Hollow
• x2 Scoured Barrens

Planeswalkers
• x1 Nissa, Vastwood Seer/Nissa, Sage Animist
• x1 Ob Nixilis Reignited
• x1 Sorin, Solemn Visitor

Creatures
• x1 Abzan Guide
• x1 Abzan Kin-Guard
• x2 Anafenza, the Foremost
• x2 Arashin Cleric
• x2 Child of Night
• x1 Champion of Arashin
• x1 Cliffhaven Vampire
• x1 Defiant Bloodlord
• x2 Drana's Emissary
• x2 Farbog Revenant
• x2 Felidar Sovereign
• x1 Ghostblade Eidolon
• x2 Guardian Automaton
• x1 Hopeful Eidolon
• x1 Ladonna-Band Elder
• x1 Lifespring Druid
• x1 Oreskos Sun Guide
• x1 Scholar of Athreos
• x1 Sentinal of the Eternal Watch
• x1 Servant of Tymaret
• x1 Soulflayer
• x1 Sultai Flayer
• x1 Totem-Guide Hartebeest
• x2 Vampire Envoy
• x1 Warden of the First Tree
• x2 War Oracle

Enchantments
• x1 Chosen by Heliod
• x1 Divine Favor
• x1 Ephara's Radiance
• x1 Forced Adaptation
• x3 Grasp of the Heiromancer
• x1 Infernal Scarring
• x1 Sage's Reverie
• x1 Demon's Horn
• x1 Golem's Heart
• x1 Helm of the Gods
• x2 Prism Ring
• x1 Riot Gear
• x2 Slayer's Plate

Sorceries
• x1 Alms of the Vein
• x1 Chaplain's Blessing
• x1 Death Grasp
• x1 Nissa's Renewal
• x1 Nissa's Revelation
• x1 Primal Command
• x1 Shamble Back

Instants
• x1 Dazzling Reflection
• x1 Meditation Puzzle
• x4 Pulse of Murasa

What I try and accomplish in this deck is gaining life. How I do this is I get a bunch of creatures out. Then, If they have lifelink, I try and make it more effective by throwing on some Equips and Auras. I also try and drain my opponent's life with the Defiant Bloodlord. If I can't get it out, I try and win with the Felidar Sovereigns. Basically, I am asking for suggestions to add cards into the deck, or for custom cards that fit the deck's theme. Thanks!

    It appears you have a lot of one ofs and two ofs. I'd suggest figuring out which cards work for you, and elevate those to three and four, while dropping the ones that haven't worked quite as well. And while it's obvious that you have an idea what you're doing, I'd suggest find a more central theme. For example, in Abzan, there is a heavy focus on +1/+1 counters, so I'd suggest using more of the ones that grant keyword abilities to creatures with +1/+1 counters, such as first strike, deathtouch, flying, trample, lifelink, etc. While using global counter abilities, such as Anafenza, Abzan Ascendancy, and anything with bolster.
  • @Lujikul, thanks for the idea. I'll have to test it out.
