cfost827 To make the deck any more competitive, the easiest thing to do is to include more cheap mana sources, add more disruption, and cut the higher mana cards. I'd consider some more competitive cards like Mana Vault , Mox Diamond , Dark Confidant , Imperial Seal , Ad Nauseam , Opposition Agent etc. The cards you should look at cutting are the slower, high cost ones like Requiem Angel , Solemn Simulacrum , Archon of Justice , etc. This doesn't include Razaketh, the Foulblooded or Vilis, Broker of Blood though since they practically win the game upon entering. Tweaking the deck to give it 5% more power level can be difficult since such a small change is subtle. You're going to have to add and cut cards to feel it out and probably play a ton of games to test.
In terms of what to cut for more fodder, you could cut Archon of Justice and Sifter of Skulls for Carrier Thrall and Imperious Oligarch , or whatever 2 drops you want. Archon and Sifter are a lot slower than cheap fodder, so if you want more, you can cut cards like them. If you want more than 2 new pieces of fodder, you could keep cutting slower 4-6 drops like Solemn Simulacrum , but it'd impact your mana base or other aspects of the deck.
DubWubby This is a cool combo. You could include it, but you're right in that it's fragile and inconsistent. It's really strong in ideal scenarios like with Buried Alive or any time you draw Vizier of Remedies with any persist creature. However, it'd be hard to include for a few reasons. If you draw persist creatures and don't have vizier, they're weak sac fodder on their own, so you'd want to include few of them. However, if you draw vizier without persist creatures, then she's almost useless, so you want to include more of them. Finding the balance of how many persist creatures you need as well as what to cut is the challenge. Saying that, Putrid Goblin is almost as efficient as other 2 drop fodder cards, and both him and vizier have 1 toughness for Skullclamp , so they aren't irredeemable on their own.

I've made several versions of EDH decks around the Teysa's and token spawns. Some neat stuff you can do;
-
Spirits! Afterlife is useful, but we can also use stuff like Bishop of Wings alongside Requiem Angel to get some neat trigger stacks. Divine Visitation on top makes it absolutely brutal, but that's probably not where your deck wants to go.
-
Another value source of tokens are the enchantments that trigger on lifegain; Regal Bloodlord , Griffin Aerie and Angelic Accord , for example.
-
Ayli, Eternal Pilgrim . I mean... :)

na na na na, hey hey, goodbye(overwhelming tokens)

Hi! Thanks for the upvote.
A few suggestions:
Overwhelming Stampede
rather than
Overcome
; Sure your deck has many weenies, but by the time you're gonna want a 5 cmc mass trample for the win, you'll probably have something with larger than 2 power out.
Rule of Law
is great for multiplayer, but
Curse of Exhaustion
might fit if you're gearing the deck for 1v1. If you are going for multiplayer, then
Kismet
works great at slowing opponents down without impacting yourself.
With the amount of PWs in the deck,
Ignite the Beacon
and
Oath of Ajani
might be worthwhile.
Phyrexian Rebirth
could be a good board wipe, especially if you have crazy token amounts. Especially funny if you can combo it with
Fresh Meat
. Also funny with
Requiem Angel
out - a card worth including on its own, especially if you end up juggling your own tokens for other things.
Hardened Scales
,
Gavony Township
, and
Bloodspore Thrinax
, could play nice with the +1/+1 subtheme.
Ashnod's Altar
is great for utilizing creature tokens to get more things out.
Tireless Tracker
might help with card draw later and gets some counters on its own.
The deck comp is pretty balanced, so
Traverse the Ulvenwald
might be effective.
Congregation at Dawn
and
Chord of Calling
are other tutor options if you find that the deck is more successful with particular creatures out.
I love swapping weaker tokens with
Emrakul's Evangel
(another fun fresh meat combo play). Of course, there is always
Divine Visitation
as well.
It's easy to go overboard on doublers, but I figured I'd give a shout out to
Primal Vigor
and
Second Harvest
.
Swords to Plowshares
for
Pacifism
; might be better in some scenarios and always allows you to target your own creature to get some life out of it if you need to or if you go for the lifegain route.
Speaking of the lifegain route, if you want to go for it, here's some things that could work well:
Phantom Nishoba
,
Wall of Reverence
,
Cradle of Vitality
,
Fumigate
,
Congregate
,
Blighted Steppe
,
Blossoming Sands
,
Gingerbread Cabin
,
Radiant Fountain
,
Graypelt Refuge
,
Kabira Crossroads
,
High Market
, and
Phyrexian Processor
. The land balance will need to be played with if you want to swap the basics for some of those. Also, most Ajani PWs will work well for a more lifegain focused deck.
Now, when I think token generation, I think artifacts for many things.
Thopter Assembly
,
Genesis Chamber
, and
Summoning Station
come to mind. If you end up with more artifact tokens, you can use them with things like
Krark-Clan Ironworks
and
Kuldotha Forgemaster
. Also help with things like
Dispatch
.
Annnnnd one more suggestion if I haven't overstayed my welcome. Funny things can happen in token decks that put out a lot of creatures when you play
The Great Aurora
. Usually gives you a much stronger board state than opponents - might want to have a safety
Reliquary Tower
in for that hand size though!
Sorry if I doubled up on anything you had already considered!

Perhaps Corpse Connoisseur and Gravebreaker Lamia? These could be neat too: Hell's Caretaker, Whisper, Blood Liturgist, Cauldron of Souls, Requiem Angel, Nim Devourer, Black Market, Mimic Vat (this one is neat with Tormod. the vat takes the creature from grave to exile, triggering Tormod. so you could imprint every creature of yours that dies to make that many zombies)

Angel Token
7 months ago
Looks great so far. You might like these: Adorned Pouncer, Angel of Sanctions, Bramble Sovereign, Mimic Vat, Requiem Angel, Regna, the Redeemer, Soul Foundry, Phyrexian Processor, Helm of the Host, Ezuri's Predation, Aura Mutation, Giant Adephage, Herald of the Host, Nacatl War-Pride, Arachnogenesis, Song of Freyalise.
Note: if you copy a token that would normally be temporary (like those from Nacatl War-Pride), the new copy will stay indefinitely since its source (Rhys/populate/etc.) does not specify to exile or sac it. This is super strong with War-Pride and Herald of the Host since the token copies will go on to make more copies, leading to exponential increases in number each turn.

I know your heart might be set on Rith, but Tana, the Bloodsower and Bruse Tarl, Boorish Herder are great generals for this strategy. Giving Tana doublestrike while she has a Bravado effect is really powerful (her first hit makes saps, which makes her twice as big, so the second hit makes her 4x as big: exponentially increasing damage + saproling output). Here's a budget list with them if you're curious: https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/wide-tall-super-budget/
These cards might catch your eye: Betrothed of Fire, Hope Against Hope, Mantle of Leadership, Fanatical Devotion, Perilous Forays, Pollenbright Wings, Storm the Citadel, Five-Alarm Fire, Keeper of Fables, Requiem Angel, Fungal Plots, Utopia Mycon, Eidolon of Countless Battles, Ivy Lane Denizen, Rapacious One, Pallid Mycoderm

Looks great Patolea! Since your group likes to wrath, Settle the Wreckage could be a good include for a long-term strategy. Attack with a bunch of tokens, then turn them into lands with Settle the Wreckage. The cool thing about this is the tokens will still trigger Winota when they attack.
Also Requiem Angel is a decent anti-boardwipe card.
