Life Steal (budget) (more help needed)
Life Steal
------Description------
My main focus today is the budget version of my Life Steal deck (Life Steal (budget)
The idea behind this deck is to flip Chalice of Life
Flip
as soon as possible. This is done using Soul Warden
and Soul's Attendant
and other 1CMC creatures to spam out lifegain. Martyr of Sands
works wonders in this department.
The non-budget version (Life Steal) uses cards like Felidar Sovereign , Rhox Faithmender , Serra Ascendant , Sanguine Bond and Sorin, Lord of Innistrad for a much faster win.
Both decks include Exquisite Blood to dramatically increase the life gain after Chalice of Life Flip has flipped, and to help reverse damages from my opponent's creatures or burns.------The Problem------
Both decks will top-deck early to mid game since most of the creatures are 1CMC. It is a fast playing idea that will leave me with an empty hand most of the time. I need to include a draw mechanic like Mentor of the Meek .
------Note------
Please treat the sideboards I have as a second maybe board. I still need help making the actual side boards.
I replaced 3x Lingering Souls with 3x Mentor of the Meek . Any thoughts?

Forgot to say, the problem is that I don't know what to take out of the deck to make room for Mentor of the Meek
