Basilica Bell-Haunt
Creature — Spirit
When Basilica Bell-Haunt enters the battlefield, each opponent discards a card and you gain 3 life.

This is a very, very intriguing start of a decklist!!!! I was just looking at another deck that had the enchantment Skybind - I think it would be fascinating to do a black/white deck combining some of these very powerful ETB effects with the flicker effect of that card, multiplied by Panharmonicon!!!!
Just some random black, white, or black/white cards I think might have good ETB effects for this concept:
Company Commander (I mainly play big casual multi-person games so this suggestion is with that in mind!)
I'd make a list of all the cheap enchantments I think might work for this too, but I see I am already going overboard.
Tbh I am a fairly new player and very new to deckbuilding but thought I'd drop you a line!!!

As of Jun 28, 2023, updates have been made to improve playability of this deck.
Playtesting with 2 opponents (3-player games) had revealed that the deck needed multiple methods that allow me to sacrifice Toluz, Clever Conductor when:
- I'm ready to; maybe because I want to scoop up all the cards being held in exile (ability of this commander)
- I need to short-circuit an opponent's attempt to exile Toluz, Clever Conductor
The deck now contains three cards to enable creature sacrifice:
Other (Additional) Deck Changes:
New MTG creature cards have been released which allow the player to momentarily exile their own creatures:
That's powerful for this deck, so those two cards have been added. They work well with the deck's function of sending permanents into exile, turn after turn:
I'm eager to play this deck again.

Looks like a fun starter commander! Black White lifegain is a definite fun archtype to build, maybe work up towards something like Karlov of the Ghost Council or Oloro, Ageless Ascetic ! I know starting out budget is important as you don't want to invest in cards you might not like, so I've made the recommendations with that in mind!
On the first look, your commander can filter through your deck fairly consistently, so some reanimation spells like Dread Return Unburial Rites Victimize might work out for you!
Revival / Revenge and Light of Promise are both fun cards that offer some utility and can get out of hand.
Spirit Loop seems like it could have a home in your deck, as it's a consistent 2cmc spell that you can keep casting and getting back to trigger your commander.
Well of Lost Dreams Dawn of Hope Cosmos Elixir Are all sources of card draw that synergize with your lifegain gameplan! Your commander's colors are notoriously known for lacking card draw and ramp, so these might help keep you in the game!
Soul Warden Soul's Attendant and Suture Priest are decent lifegain triggers, as they trigger on each creature entering the battlefield.
Blind Obedience seems perfect for your deck!
Vampire Nighthawk Indulging Patrician Basilica Bell-Haunt Angel of Vitality are creatures that seem to fit with your gameplan.
Lurrus of the Dream-Den offers consistent recursion and allows you to cast lower cmc permanents. Kami of False Hope could also pair with this really well, as it's basically a fog effect that you can cast for cheap over and over!
In your current list, it appears a little removal light (which to be fair is meta dependent). since you're playing white, you have access to cards like Darksteel Mutation and Reprobation , which can be a headache for your opponents to deal with if you enchant their commander. Also Victimize is a great catchall removal spell.
Colored mana seems at a premium in your deck, so I'd also look into getting some cheaper artifact ramp like Marble Diamond and Charcoal Diamond .
For cuts, I'd recommend evaluating your cards in terms of whether they actively win the game or help you do what you want. In your current list Fortified Rampart I've found to be underwhelming and doesn't further your gameplan. I'd also recommend replacing the following: Star-Crowned Stag Skeleton Archer Reaper of Night Kor Scythemaster Inspiring Captain Hailstorm Valkyrie Gargoyle Sentinel Fiend Binder Angel of the Dawn Courier Griffin Silverflame Ritual Chaplain's Blessing Splendid Agony Djeru's Renunciation Sinister Possession .
That being said, it can sometimes be fun just trying your best with whatever cards are lying around! Hopefully the suggestions can give your deck a little pep!

Grind thank you for the suggestions! I might take out Basilica Bell-Haunt , Deathpact Angel and Grasping Thrull since they're not as effective for this deck as your suggestions would be (and they're above-average CMC anyway). I'm rather new to Commander, so it's really appreciated!

Love the deck but Hymn to Tourach, Vindicate, andSkullclamp are all from pre modern sets or are banned and so you may want to A, change the format (probably vintage) or B, switch the cards out for some other cards, some you would maybe like Basilica Bell-Haunt, Mortify as an alternate to vindicate and also I maybe would consider the new card Firja, Judge of Valor, she gives lifegain and evasion, along with ways to get gravecrawler into yout graveyard and other cards into your hand, If you did that I would recommend Ornithopter. You also need a wincon so maybe something like Massacre Wurm to help with your Blood Artist triggers.

been trying something similar, i've not come to a place where im happy with it yet.
but a few cards i found that will probably end up in the list are Lone Rider Flip, Kaya's Guile, Lurrus of the Dream-Den.
more in the maybe slot Basilica Bell-Haunt, Cling to Dust, Silversmote Ghoul, Revitalize, Survival Cache
feel like there's also a argument for mardu for, Lightning Helix and Smiting Helix
or esper with Absorb and Punish Ignorance, Ojutai's Command

Ok, I guess the deck works, but it seems far from smooth. Impassioned Orator, Orzhov Racketeers are pretty terrible here, and Basilica Bell-Haunt isn't the most fitting, as well. You should definitely include some kind of free sacrifice-outlet like Nantuko Husk. There are many that are better, but Husk is super-cheap and very effective. Great card draw for the deck is Altar's Reap, and I really like cards such as Macabre Waltz for this kind of strategy. Looking at your overall creature base, Dusk / Dawn seems pretty useful. Oh, and adding a one-drop seems important. Doomed Traveler seems most fitting.
