Also, Mirage Mirror has been the nuts. It just acts as a doubler of whatever combo piece you need it to be. I almost feel like it is the most valuable piece of my deck the more that I play with it.

i think that with Sylvan Awakening it would be hilarious to run Omnath, Locus of Rage since the lands are now elementals. those 2 effects with both a Sek'Kuar, Deathkeeper and Titania, Protector of Argoth (since the lands are not tokens and are still lands) add a sac outlet and hilarity ensues.

Really like what you're doing here by repeatedly killing creatures and turning them into tokens. Also a big fan of Ogre Battledriver and Primal Forcemage effects, which I've used to great effect in many decks. Ghoulcaller Gisa is great to convert the pumped tokens into many pumped Zombies (even more so with Coat of Arms). Token doublers like Parallel Lives and Doubling Season also help, especially when you stack the token generation, e.g. Emrakul's Evangel into Descent of the Dragons turns each land into 4 Dragons. They also give infinite ETBs with Tooth and Claw which deals infinite damage with Pandemonium or makes infinite beasts with Fresh Meat or 2 token-doubling enchantments.
If animating lands is the main game plan, you might want a couple more land ramp spells like Skyshroud Claim and Harvest Season (which doubles your lands when you tap all your lands then animate them). World Shaper is great to bring back your lands, and also contributes to the creature count.
I have a very similar deck concept in a General Tazri / Zada, Hedron Grinder shell, do check it out below!

Glad you like it! The deck is pretty combo-focused, and things that help AFTER I have sac'd all my lands are pretty limited. Parallel Lives is in there, but Doubling Season would be fantastic...but that price tag, though.
Harvest Season was cut because it was, like so many others, a 'win-more' card. If I'm already in a position to animate and sac, that's likely the end of the game. Skyshroud Claim was cut to help reduce average CMC, but it is a great ramp card.
I'm checking your deck out now. Thanks for all the suggestions!!!

Hey VesuvanDoppelbanger, I incorporated a few of your land animation and sacrifice methods into my Windgrace Gitrog Borborygmos Vaevictis Sek'Kuar deck, and might try out some of the token-making lands you're using here as well, so thanks again for the inspiration!

Thanks for the compliment! I've built ~14 Commander decks now, and this one has become the hard favorite. Message me a link to your deck when you're done.

Awesome! Lord Windgrace looks like he'd be the engine that deck needs. Thank you for stopping by.

Oh I see! I must have missed that in an early revision.
Another card I don't see that I've been impressed with is Westvale Abbey Flip. It's a nice sac outlet in a land slot that can do some work. Doesn't really fall into your all-in plan, but I've been enjoying it for a card with nearly 0 deck-building drawbacks.
