looking for suggestions/help

This is a Gisela combo deck looking to use the age old classic combo of Gisela and Repercussions to deal massive damage to the entire board through cards like (pyrohemia, Hour of Devastation, chandra's ignition, etc etc) in order to do massive board wide damage to a bunch of creatures and double that damage with Gisela and then proc the effect on Repercussions and double that damage to the opponents face all while surviving these effects due to Gisela halving the taken damage to us instead.

This deck does use a sort of tribal angels theme in order in part because I like the theme with Gisela and because of the following reasons.

-despite some of the comparatively over costed roster, the lineup includes an array of answers to certain threats by using Avacyn, Linvala, Basandra, Guardian of the Gateless, Seraph of the Sword, Angel of Jubilation. which is more reasonable given that a lot of our support comes with making these over costed creatures much cheaper while providing support for them to stay on the battlefield longer.

-Lyra Dawnbringer, Urza's Incubator, Herald of War, Herald's Horn, The Immortal Sun give us some tribal support

-Cavern of Souls to protect our big drops and powerhouses, which all take the form of angels, from counter decks on their way into the battlefield

However, Angels are still slow to establish board presence especially when compared to other tribal themed decks. so we try to limit some of the opponents options in the form of cards like Stranglehold, Blood Moon, Magus of the Moon, Linvala, Grand Abolisher, Angel of Jubilation. we also try to use 1 way board wipes like Chandra's Ignition, Solar Blaze, Hour of Devastation which can be particularly brutal when Gisela is on the board in order to protect our own boardstate.

This deck is also designed to make full use out of Sunforger which is a really neat equipment which allows us to dig through our library to find the answers that we need. Ideally early on we use Sunforger to hit tithe into Mistveil Plains. Mistveil plains allows us to tuck our answers after we use them for certain matchups and get them back into our deck to reuse via sunforger.

Sunforger not only has its own support in the form of Sun titan, Halvar, god of battle, stonehewer giant, stoneforge mystic, Open the Armory, Fountain Watch. these support cards are designed to either find our toolbox or recur it, or equip it, or what have you. the downside to sunforger is that it is vulnerable to exile spells. but if it is instead put into the graveyard, there are ways to get it back into play.

all in all this deck isnt supposed to be competitive but it can be really fun to play in a 4 man free for all
