love the life gain deck! You've already got lots of great cards in this deck.

I might suggest Suture Priest if you find you want another Soul Warden type effect.

And of course Heliod, Sun-Crowned is great especially when you have so many different lifegain triggers to play off.

There isn't a rhino-specific commander, but what traits do rhinos have? Bulky bodies, a lot of trample and trample-ish evasion, and some stall with cards like Stonehorn Dignitary and Rhox Meditant.

I would say look for a subtheme and choose a commander based on that. Dragonlord Dromoka and Karametra, God of Harvests are good utility options for protection and ramp, respectively. If you're pumping the Rhinos, Sovereign Okinec Ahau pushes that into overdrive.

I got a lot of these decks in need of commanders. Please send over suggestions for

{R}{G}{W} Enchantments: Citadel of Pain + Manabarbs + Personal Sanctuary sort of thing. I know Go-Shintai of Life's Origin exists, but I'm not interested in adding {U} and/or {B} to this one.

{W}{U}{B}{R} Curses and curse themed Auras: Lynde, Cheerful Tormentor + Eriette of the Charmed Apple. Again, I'm not interested in adding {G}.

{U}{B}{R}{G} Reanimator

{B}{R}{G}{W} "Bleeder" attrition: Value over time. Awakening Zone, Suture Priest, Kambal, Consul of Allocation, that sort of thing.

I really appreciate the feedback wallisface legendofa I completely took out white. It was mostly just instances of life gain. I replace Suture Priest with Blood Seeker and Blood Artist. I added that amazing Enchantment Illness in the Ranks I thought for sure I'd have to splash red for that same effect. I also tried to find more cards that added tokens to their side of the battlefield but came up mostly empty handed. The next best thing I could find was Hunted Horror the other hunteds I wasn't too impressed with. Hunted Troll wasn't bad but I don't think he's worth splashing another color for.

I think the big problem i’m seeing here is that fir your deck to do anything, you need a bunch of specific cards in play, which you have no way to reliably draw, and no backup plan for when you don’t.

For example, your deck does nothing at all without Suture Priest… if you don’t draw it, or if your opponent has a single killspell, you’re in a lot of trouble.

You need to be running more cards that hurt your opponent when a creature etbs. You need to be running more cards that generate tokens for the opponent. And you need to be running more ways to ensure those tokens don’t beat you down before you can win.

Out: Crested Sunmare (No synergy), Mindcrank(No synergy), Kaya, Bane of the Dead (too expensiv), Oketra's Last Mercy (sounds cool, doesnt do much)

In (few budget changes): Soul Warden and Soul's Attendant (ez Lifegain), Suture Priest (Like Soulsisters, but hurts the enemy too) and Dawn of Hope (draws cards and can make lifelinkers)

Main Problem would be the manacurve of the deck

just because your playing white and your concept is lots of creatures entering the battlefield i recommend a couple of cards for life gain that could help Soul Warden Soul's Attendant, or Suture Priest with the added bonus of damaging oppenents when they cast creatures
