-2 Plains +2 Temple Garden (gives you the same amount of white sources and more forests for Arbor Elf)
-3 Phantom General +3 Rancor (4 CMC is a lot for an effect that will only affect a few of your creatures, and Rancor will help you punch through and is REALLY good with Sublime)
Just my thoughts, deck looks good though

Also, those sundering growths are good but they REQUIRE that you destroy something, which makes me think sideboard. In my opinion, put those sundering growths in your sideboard and add two of the o-rings to your main deck. Other than that, great idea. I like that */* temple with sublime, and if you add those rancors, trample makes them amazing with all of those effects! I mean, populate, which makes it get another creature for the */* AND that creature has exalted, so a total +2/+2!! Great idea for deck, but you NEED those rancors

Yeah those are pretty valid points... So probably -3 phantom generals +3 rancor and swap out the Sundering growth for the sideborded o-rings

Only thing is I only have 2 temples ATM and 0 parallel lives but that's all I need to complete this deck

I know it's a long shot but if you splashed blue for {cackling counterpart} you could populate sublime tokens :P

I guess you could use {seance} instead but you need to wait for some removal to bin her first...

Oh believe me I've already thought of making it bant, make sublime OR thragtusk tokens so I can get like quintuple exalted or like 20 life... But to splash blue for the one card... {clone} could work to but

{Clone} wouldn't work, as its still a card and not a token. :(
