skyburial: So sorry for the late reply! The deck mostly stalls to grind it out. Goading an agro player into swinging at someone else or their most useful 2 creatures will be removed is hard to argue with.

I definitely need more ramp. Building a field is easy, but sticking around after a wipe can really suck. Ramping can help me rebuild easier. Sol Ring is a must, as is Darksteel Ingot. Solemn Simulacrum sadly isn't or , is it worth it? I have been thinking of throwing in a Springleaf Drum since I usually have something to tap. Other than that I just need more mana gen... Ashnod's Altar + Phyrexian Altar ? Black Market?

I don't have a swords cause Teysa is the sword! I should put one in for flavor reasons.

The deck hasn't been updated in a while, I will have to do that soon.

Tbh to make a good edh deck you would need a card to do something more than 1-1. For example Aether Hub + Tendo Ice Bridge give mana once in your deck and seem to nothing else. Cards that do an effect 1 time are not that good usually unless they are cheap Path to Exile + Swords to Plowshares Instead of the Debt to the Deathless + Exsanguinate why not play Gray Merchant of Asphodel since it fits in with many enchantments you have(unless you want to do shenanigans with Ashnod's Altar + Phyrexian Altar + Nim Deathmantle<< goes infinite with token generators).
