Hi there, thank you for reaching out. I hope my suggestions will be helpful, but here are some things I noticed when I took a look at your deck:
-
I know that your commander can steal opponents' lands, but I think you are kind of low on your own land count. Personally, I would suggest bumping up to 35-36, especially since your average cmc is closer to 3.
-
I think you can cut Voracious Fell Beast all together, or replace it with something like Fleshbag Marauder, Plaguecrafter, or Merciless Executioner for a cheaper version of a similar effect.
-
Gnawing Vermin can likely be replaced by a ramp spell like Three Visits, Nature's Lore, Farseek, or Rampant Growth. Its effect isn't super impactful, even as a sacrifice target.
-
You can probably swap out Fall of Gil-galad and Oath of the Grey Host for a couple more effects that let you sacrifice your own creatures like Ashnod's Altar, Plumb the Forbidden, Yahenni, Undying Partisan, Yawgmoth, Thran Physician, or Phyrexian Altar, depending on your budget.
-
I would recommend swapping out Rampaging Brontodon with Tireless Provisioner, Scute Swarm, or Tireless Tracker. All are lower on the mana curve, and still work with the landfall stuff you want to do.
-
Depending on your budget, you can likely swap Butcher of Malakir out for Bastion of Remembrance, Poison-Tip Archer, Grave Pact, or Dictate of Erebos. The enchantments are a bit more resistant to removal and board wipes than creatures, and all options are lower on your mana curve to come down sooner.
If you haven't already, I would recommend checking out EDHREC's page on Smeagol, Helpful Guide, here are the pages for a Sacrifice themed deck and a more Landfall focused deck. These pages can give you an idea of which effects overlap between the two strats, and what might be within your budget.
I hope these suggestions were helpful.
KBK7101 on Wulfgar of Icewind Dale EDH - Extra Attack!

I don't know if Isshin is "better". Different, yes. Better? While Isshin does get you access to more colors, Wulfgar has Melee and access to green. Both are very cool, either way!
Since the deck hinges on attacking, you might want to add in some more haste enablers like Fervor or Tuktuk Rubblefort or something.
Looking through some of green's best attack triggers, thoughts on Pathbreaker Ibex (a bit expensive these days), Rampaging Brontodon, Blossoming Bogbeast and Hans Eriksson?

SpotosThank you so much for commenting! These are super helpful suggestions that I hope to phase in over time. I recently added cards like Rampaging Brontodon and Gigantosaurus in hopes of some big damage, but in my last 3-4 games I haven't even gotten the 5 mana out to cast commander before my friends have all gotten theirs and are swinging wide.
I think the Equipments will be the first to go, but what else would you recommend I cut to make room for your suggestions?

I originally had more two-drop rocks, but went away from them to go with more land ramp. I'm actually considering dropping some more of the artifacts I have, but have not convinced myself to do so yet. Urza's Incubator and Herald's Horn are good, but once I get Gishath out, they tend to not be quite as useful with Gishath doing all the work to get dinos out. I've been keeping them around because I know there will be times when my Commander won't be an option.
My mana base is pretty good, so I won't be adding Terramorphic or Evolving Wilds. If I didn't have the mana base I have already available, I would probably run them.
Regal Behemoth is out of budge, as is The Great Henge. I own a copy, but it's in another deck for now. The Tarrasque's fight ability could be useful, but it probably won't ever have Ward 10 in this deck. I'm on the fence about it. Rampaging Brontodon is easy beats, for sure.

That's fair. Some more suggestions might be Carnage Tyrant is pretty decent stats for the cost. You might consider Arcane Signet and maybe a couple other 2 cost or less mana rocks. rhythm of the wild might not be up your alley, but what about Unnatural Growth? That could probably get you there. A decent budget card might be Thrasta, Tempest's Roar, the Terrasque, or Rampaging Brontodon you could get some serious beaters with them lol. Congregation at Dawn feels extremely solid. Not at all budget but Regal Behemoth is op. I don't normally recommend lands but Evolving Wilds and Terramorphic Expanse are better than they look. Also not budget but this would be a great deck for The Great Henge.
I know you just worked on lowering your curve but it looks like this deck thrives on having big bombs. I decided I would drop in a few more suggestions because I was just starting to get a better feel for what cards you were already using

Dencoan Yeah i think 2x Garruk's Uprising is fine, as for Rampaging Brontodon maybe have your wife playtest some games with Rampaging Brontodon instead of Ghalta, Primal Hunger to see which one she prefers.

YodaVoda I really like the idea of Garruk's Uprising how many are you thinking right now I'm thinking x2? as for Rampaging Brontodon it is definitely a solid option for later game but I'm not sure what I would cut. I was thinking I need to get Gigantosaurus back to x4 especially with Garruk's Uprising handing out trample!
