An attempt at making a standard aggro deck based on Venser, the Sojourner.

Blade Splicer/Geist-Honored Monk: Token generators, Blade Splicer can be brought back with Sun Titan.

Snapcaster Mage: Adds more value to Midnight Hauntings, counters, Day of Judgments, and Cackling Counterparts.

Stonehorn Dignitary (removed): Worse comes to worse, I lock down aggro decks until I can set up an engine.

Phantasmal Image/Cackling Counterpart (sideboarded): Copy token generators, Phantasmal Images can also be brought back by Sun Titan to make an army immediately after a board wipe.

Midnight Haunting (sideboarded): 2 flying tokens to the board, can add flashback with Snapcaster Mage.

Day of Judgment: If things are going bad. Also with a Sun Titan in hand and a board clear happens with token generators on the field, I can bring an army back from the graveyard consisting of Phantasmal Images and Blade Splicers.

Mana Leak/Negate (sideboarded): Early game counters to hold off until I can get some engines running.

Vapor Snag: Early game slow-down.

Oblivion Ring: I love me some O-ring. Can also change targets with Venser, the Sojourner.

Mimic Vat: Constant producer of tokens if Blade Splicer or Geist-Honored Monk is in the vat or even Phantasmal Image in there with one of the 2 token generators on the field and constantly produce token copies of either of them, which in turn produces more tokens. Tokens. The image would probably be more likely to head to the graveyard anyway because it's an illusion.

Elspeth Tirel: Tokens = Elspeth.

Gideon Jura (sideboarded): Good utility planeswalker. Draws away damage, opponents are scared to attack with their faves on fear of dying from his -2 and can swing for 6 at no penalty.

Venser, the Sojourner: What I tried to build around. Can bounce essentially everything in this deck. Can also use his -1 for an alpha strike with a mass token army.

I'm not quite sure what to sideboard for this deck so I'd like some feedback on what to do for that, I'm fairly new so general feedback for building sideboards would be welcome. Also feedback on anything here is very encouraged.
