This deck is a current deck that I own, and am trying to fine tune to make a curved out aggro/utility/token deck, and I'm looking for a way to make it competitive against top tier stuff like merfolk and soul sisters.

Weird right?

The reason I call this the "Push pull" deck is because of Suture Priest and cards like Purphoros, God of the Forge and Impact Tremors

These cards make putting a token on the board not just board pressure, but also make it so your opponent has to make pressured decisions based on the modifying cards you have on the board, whether to get rid of the damage like Purphoros or removing the Soul Sister esque life gain from Suture priest.

For example:If at turn three I have both a Suture Priest and a Goblin Rabblemaster on the board, things could become very out of hand very quickly especially considering there is a slew of other spells that make the tokens much stronger Intangible Virtue and allow for the tokens to do their job without even attacking so that instead you can use your spirit tokens from Spectral Procession to chump block those pesky fliers trying to kill you.

The problem I've run into most is mana on the board often defines the game, so that if you pull no red mana in your opening hand, or vice versa with white, you may seriously have to consider going for a mulligan.

As it stands the mainboard is the list of cards I have physical copies of, the sideboard for the most part is ideas and/or cards I need.

With the advent of Battle for Zendikar I'm hoping with all the packs I will be opening I can pick up some more Arid Mesas and or Sacred forges to improve the land play with the deck.

I guess I primarily want to ask, what's your suggestion for the sideboard? Do I need the Ajani's Pridemate? What is the ideal land composition for a relatively low mana cost deck like this?

Help greatly appreciated.

More control via [[Blasting Station]] — Sept. 30, 2015
Edit

So I was skulking around looking at cards that interested me and Blasting Station came to my attention, along with Isochron Scepter. With the fact that I use instants that generate tokens, the glorious combo of killing of little creatures came to my attention.

The worst deck to play against with this deck is soul sisters and boggles, and I realized that utilizing more of the instants in my sideboard via Isochron Scepter. The problem I run into is that the creatures I put out get killed, especially the token goblins that get chump blocked because Goblin Rabblemaster forces other goblins to attack. SO I figure, instead of losing the creature to his blockers that give him life, I can instead sac my creatures before they die to kill little toughness 1 creatures like Soul Warden. I can instead apply this damage to my opponent directly so that I still can get the damage in.

Seem like a decent idea?
