This looks like it's trying to hard to be both midrange and aggro. I'd probably just move to a closer to stock junk midrange list or all the way into wilted abzan. That said, based off the types of decks you like to post here I want to recommend you play or at least try BW tokens. The deck is reasonably cheap (kinda), and does pretty well and has some really good matchups, and only one unwind able one in RG tron.

I have a straight token deck 🙈 lol but let's face it, the difference from this and control Abzan is tarmogoyf and what's more aggro than a 5/6 2 drop? So I'm basically attempting to do the same thing just the budget way in my opinion

My friend was playing "little kid" abzan at GP OKC and was destroying with it.

He had 4 gilt leaf lieges, 4 birds, 2? ooze, 4 rhinos, 0 goyfs, 3-4 voice, 3? lingering souls, 4 path, 1-2? dismember, 2-3 abrupt decay,4? kitchen finks and I think some inquisitions.

I had this deck for the longest time it's definitely good, just not the exact thing I want to play right right now. I'm going to eventually get some Goyfs AGAIN but until then my pretty little buddy will have to fill that spot. If I take this to a gp anywhere I have teammates that'll let me use their lilis and Goyfs for sure but for fnm I'm going to attempt this :)

Tarmogoyf and liliana. Liliana is THE grind engine of the deck. She just gives you so much game against so many decks. Tarmogoyf, as I'm sure you know, is fantastic and it not being included is a severe hindrance to the deck.

Played online today and wrecked jund. Was fun, the souls and voice definitely do work. Them slamming a rhino down as a follow up is great.

Can you squeeze in a couple finks? I feel like they'd help out

How's that?

-1 inquisition, -1 zealous persecution, +2 kitchen finks

Is probably go 4 IoK 2 Thoughtseize, but that's just personal preference.

That's probably what I'll end up doing

I wouldn't call it personal preference when almost every deck that wants this many disruption spells is playing that split

My point is that it's up to personal preference. It's completely reasonable to run 3-3 if you're inclined to do so
