Looking at getting into EDH. I picked up this precon to learn the ropes.  What would be some good ways to improve it. I'm going to use {ghave} as my commander and I'm looking at going the token route.

Wow, I just bought this today too.  Mostly because {Scavenging Ooze} is up to about $40 apiece now.

Advice for the deck. I have things like BSZ, {day of judgement}, {isolated chapel}, {blade of the bloodchief},  {verdant catacombs}, {verdant force} and a few other cards I can't think of right now.

I'm not a big fan of cobra trap myself. But, if you are going to put out tokens try doubling season or parrallel lives.

(Don't forget the curly brackets! ๐Ÿ˜)
... I totally agree and if they're in, then you cannot forget {Intanihle Virtue} either.
I like this deck pretty much almost as is, however, I have been yearning to try heavy proliferate in this deck, as well as cards like {Nactl War-Pride}/{Sundial of the Infinite}, {Genesis Chamber}, {Alter Golem}, {Beast of Burden}, {Giest Honored Monk}, {Phyrexian Rebirth}/{Parrallel Lives}/{Doubling Season}/{Fresh Meat}, {Stag Beetle} but most of all, {Sword of the Ages} would be a jerk of a card to use!
For your opponent, it would be like the feeling of realizing you've actually let {Tezzeret, Angent of Bolas} or {Jace, the Mind Sculptor}'s ultimate go off (in which case, you deserve to cop those blows).
