so im entering my first tournament in two weeks. I i want advice on any changes i need to make. im not familiar with the modern meta at all and i don't have a side bored just yet. the main purpose of this deck is too summon my big white creatures (iona in particular) but, ive found that i can win my mobbbing them with a bunch of token as well. all help is appreciated. green/white

well, i agree with brandontraps on the cmc being too high. You have the late game for sure, but you don't have the pieces to get through the early game (turn 1-3) and the midgame(turn 4-6). For instance, infect kills on turn 2 if you don't have the removal, burn kills on turn 3 approx. Do you see my point, but I think you wanna keep the fatty route so I'm recommeding Tooth and Nail, 4 or 3 Path to Exile, 4x Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx, you need on avg 24 lands to do this kind of thing. You are not an aggro deck that can live off of 1 land.Thragtusk, Courser of Kruphix, Utopia Sprawl, Garruk Wildspeaker are also nice. You can put the Bramblecrush in the sideboard, or you can replace them with Beast Within. Elixir of Immortality also can go in the sideboard. I get the idea of Chord of Calling with all the 1/1 dorks, but because you're not a token deck. If the dorks get killed (probably) then cord is really hard to cast. here's a decklist that uses Tooth and Nail...http://www.channelfireball.com/articles/modern-tooth-and-nail/
