Koilos Roc
Creature — Bird

When Koilos Roc enters the battlefield, create a tapped Powerstone token. (The token is a colourless artifact with ": Add . This mana can't be spent to cast a nonartifact spell.")

Uhh my first deck idunno lmao

is one of the best options for counters, and very good for tokens. Look for cards that can develop those strategies, and start switching out cards that don't help. Hullbreaker Horror, for example, is a strong card, but is more useful as a control deck finisher than as part of a counter/token strategy. As you continue to build, for each card you add, ask yourself what it does to support the end goal and the rest of the deck. As another example, Koilos Roc creates a token, but that token can only be used to pay for abilities and artifact spells, which this deck doesn't rely on.
While tokens and counters can work well together, I would suggest focusing on one and using the other as a subthemes, instead of trying to make them equal. This will give you either a smaller number of big creatures or a big number of smaller creatures. It is possible to do both equally, but the support cards for that tend to be very expensive (Doubling Season is an extreme example), and you can easily end up with a situation where you have not quite enough creatures, and they're not quite big enough.
As an additional note about formats, Modern has a strict card list and sideboard rules. You can't have more than 15 cards in your sideboard, and Balaam__ already mentioned the cards marked in red. Even playing casually, if you mark it as a Modern deck, it's going to be treated as a Modern deck.
Above all, have fun!
