Winota's Waging Weenies

I'm not a cEDH player, so I can't discuss that aspect of the game, but I have some options you should be aware of.
Kick Start My Heart | Winota, Joiner of Forces EDH
You have a very different creature set up than me. Fascinating. I'll have to consider some of these, though I'm not a fan of playing stax or control or hatebears myself. My deck resolves around creating tokens turns 2-3 with Krenko's Command effects, Winota turn 4, and swinging with hopefully 4+ triggers. Then it is a matter of protecting my stuff and closing out the game the following turns.
Alternatively, you can sit back and wait for the late game, great a massive army of tokens, and snipe the win.
Winota is the linchpin of the deck. If she's not out, we're screwed. Here are some things to consider:
- Silence hold back on casting Winota a turn so you can prevent counters and removal.
- Bolt Bend prevent removal
- Deflecting Swat prevent removal and counters
- Eldrazi Monument prevent board wipes
Some techy things:
- Not Forgotten creates a token and recurs a human creature that we can free cast later.
- Penance is a neat way to get humans stuck in your hand on top of your library. You can do this in between Winota triggers, which guarantees you hitting humans.
Anyway, I like your deck. It's very different than mine, which is good. Cheers!

Yennett, Tribal Sovereign

Hey, I like the changes you've made, good job. Archmage Ascension is really interesting odd CMC tech with Yennett, nice.
Consistently in 99 card Commander you won't have Leyline of Anticipation and Leyline of Sanctity in your opening hand. In my opinion four mana for these effects is not worth it. Of the two, Anticipation is a better card, but it doesn't do much with Yennett because she already gives odd CMC cards you reveal flash. You can cast the card with no timing restrictions.
It's nice that Vanquisher's Banner is odd CMC, but I don't think you need it. You have much better repeatable draw from other sources that care about flying creatures who attack (Windreader), do combat damage (Bident) or busted draw (Consecrated). Most creatures here are high CMC/have flying; you'll get more draw from attacking then casting creatures especially since Yennett wants to be attacking. The anthem effect of Banner is not worth five mana or cheating it onto the battlefield because Sphinxs already have high power/flying; they don't really need the small +1/+1 pump.
Even though Planar Portal is repeatable it costs too much mana to cast and activate. It being even 6 CMC makes it even slower. Manalith is the least good mana rock here.
I did a little research into effects with Aminatou, the Fateshifter
and Yennett. You can take some more advantage of her -1 blink. Ancestral Knowledge with Aminatou is repeatable manipulation of the top 10 cards of your library. When you blink Knowledge you shuffle your library and the upkeep cost goes away, it's reset. Even without Aminatou, Knowledge is good value for two mana since top 10 cards is a lot.
One problem you may run into is getting high CMC cards stuck in your hand unable to cast them. Aminatou's +1 can help with this, but currently it's the only effect that can help with this problem. Penance lets you repeatably at instant speed, for no mana cost, setup the top of your library with odd CMC cards in your hand for Yennett.
Mask of Memory is a repeatable draw effect that's good when your Commander has flying/evasion and playing other flying creatures helps too. Since Memory triggers when creature does combat damage then it will not disrupt the top of your library for Yennett since her trigger is when she attacks which is before combat damage is done. Idyllic Tutor is an odd CMC tutor to get Soothsaying or another enchantment.

+1 for Yennett!
I'd recommend including more Top of Library Manipulation cards and cards that allow you to return Bombs you draw to the top of the library. You can consider some of these:

Penance with Elsha is spicy.
Dissipation Field could be good here. Rattlesnake effect that you can flash in with Elsha for a big effect.
