Too many different cards. A tip for your future deck is to have multiple copies of on card aka a play set (4 of the same cards in your deck). So what you should do is find out how you want to win a game. Then look at cards from your deck and see if they help you win that way. If they do keep them, if they don't, don't keep them.
Also Guildgates aren't the best try looking for check lands  {Glacial Fortress} or shock lands  {Hallowed Fountain}

Thanks for the tips I'm still pretty new to the game so still need some help. But me and my brother played some and I was using a white and blue kinda like this and beating him then I remodeled because I learned more about the cards. We are both pretty new.

Same here I started at Christmas but my friend had played for years and they taught me a lot! The main thing is just deciding how you want to win, once you have that just look up various cards and play test.
Good luck with the deck

Example of what you are talking about I have a lot of spirits that can help each other and I have multiples. Is that what you mean?

See how you have 2x Pacifism that's what I mean about multiples
