possible new take on death's shadow?

I was building a W/B Token deck and I was looking for synergy between some cards and I found this potential combo- Gather the Townsfolk+Westvale Abbey  Flip...could this be put into a deck that already strives to have a low life count...like Death's Shadow? I mean add a few Bitterblossom and we might be talking about something or it might be jank. What do you guys think?

It seems a little busy. Each of the elements could work together, but the potential for halfway draws, where neither synergy complete, make the remainder of the hypothetical deck list about preserving consistency. It can be done, but not by a n00b like me.

I mean it's interesting. If there's any two cards that can be jammed into a fateful hour mechanic based strategy it's Death's Shadow and Bitterblossom. I like the concept behind it but you'd need to playtest several different lists until you find out what if any of it actually works.

Just like a WB midrange deck with an explosive end game plan seems ok.

The plan is solid but don't focus on getting to low life for gather the townsfolk instead just ramp with tokens until its time to beat with Ormendahl. I wold just make sure to keep a token around to protect from sacrifice effects.
