CommanderNeyo on Equipped for War

I think the deck needs more ramp, I highly recommend adding Arcane Signet, Talisman of Conviction, Talisman of Hierarchy, Talisman of Indulgence, Boros Signet, Orzhov Signet, and Rakdos Signet. Having these will help you cast your commander much earlier and start swinging.

I would also recommend some more card draw, such as Mindblade Render, Breena, the Demagogue, and even Tymna the Weaver.

Welcome to EDH! My first Magic deck was a Boros deck, so it has a special place in my heart. <3

Since you have Loyal Apprentice, you could consider adding Breath of Fury which can be used to have endless combat steps as long as the fliers Loyal Apprentice produce can connect to a player.

Additionally, I would consider removing most of the Mentor cards and replacing them with more immediately impactful cards. Mentor takes a while to build up and each mentor creature only buffs one other creature at a time, meaning it usually takes a few turns to get enough out if it to secure the win. If this is a token deck, I would recommend adding some more token produced as well, such as Hanweir Garrison  ^Meld and Leonin Warleader.

Also, you have very little card draw and ramp. My recommendation is to have at least 8 sources of card draw and 8 sources of ramp. Some ramp I would suggest is: Boros Signet, Talisman of Conviction, Mind Stone, Smothering Tithe, Keeper of the Accord, and maybe Cursed Mirror or Professional Face-Breaker. Some card draw I would suggest is: Esper Sentinel, Battle Angels of Tyr, Court of Grace, Jeska's Will, and Laelia, the Blade Reforged.

I highly recommend checking out sites like edhrec.com for deckbuilding advice, as well as the Command Zone on YouTube:

I hope this has been helpful!

Also, as another ramp option, you could consider Talisman of Conviction and/or Marble Diamond. You have a high average CMC, so more ramp will help you drop your big cards consistently.

In terms of artifact, you could maybe cut some of the less impactful creatures to run the classic rocks like signets, Talisman of Conviction and Talisman of Hierarchy.

For card-draw, you will have a lot of expendables creatures thanks to the tokens, so you could use cards such as Vampiric Rites, Bankrupt in Blood,Blood Divination. In my Edgar deck, I also run Arguel's Blood Fast  ^Flip and Vanquisher's Banner, which does everything you want from an aggressive tribal deck. A decent enchantment for when you start running out of gas later in the game is also Greed: {B} and 2 life for 1 card I find a good rate.

Ok, I have a few budget friendly suggestions for you. I'll try to break it down using your custom categories.

Lands: Exotic Orchard.

Tokens: I almost suggested Captain's Claws... it probably belongs in this category. Hanweir Garrison  ^Meld deserves a spot though.

Disruption: Chaos Warp, Generous Gift, and Tibalt's Trickery.

Card Advantage: I'd move Emberwild Captain here (or defense) thanks to drawing off the monarch. Welcoming Vampire deserves a spot though. Subira, Tulzidi Caravanner might deserve consideration too depending on how often you end up handless.

Haste: Ogre Battledriver gives haste while giving a boost... including for all your tokens that enter tapped and attacking making them all 3/1.

Utility: Odric, Master Tactician and Gustcloak Savior both allow you to swing safely turn after turn instead of just once like the Master Warcraft. Mirror Entity is another cheap way to buff your whole team and finish games.

Mana Ramp: Talisman of Hierarchy and Talisman of Conviction deserve spots.

Attack Triggers: Signal Pest and Soltari Champion are both excellent ways to buff your entire team (including all the enters tapped and attacking stuff) by 2 power which adds up FAST. Fireflux Squad exiles tokens and digs for actual creatures off the top of your deck for free... it's pretty nuts.

Feel free to check out my list for ideas. Upvotes on any of my decks are appreciated. Isshin - Army of Darkness

I have a few suggestions for you. The main things I'm noticing is your creature's avg cmc is really high (4.45 avg), a slight lack of ramp/draw, and a lack of ways to protect your board from combat/boardwipes. You've got most of what I'm pointing out in that giant maybeboard... but what the hell.

First, creatures: Skyknight Vanguard is a cheap token producer. Soltari Champion equals +2+2 for your team w/ Isshin and Shadow means it'll survive combat. Breena, the Demagogue and Tymna the Weaver both help with card draw. I'd cut like 5-7 creatures and a few costly non-creatures that cost 5+ for these and other additions.

Ramp: Get all of your Talismans in here. Talisman of Indulgence, Talisman of Hierarchy, and Talisman of Conviction. Fellwar Stone deserves a spot too honestly.

Protection: Reconnaissance, Dolmen Gate, and Gustcloak Savior all protect during combat (the first 2 + Iroas ought to cut it but the bird is budget friendly). Boros Charm, Teferi's Protection, and Flawless Maneuver are all excellent options for boardwipe protection (I recommend at least 2 if not all 3).

Muh Favorite Attack Trigger: Fireflux Squad has been amazing. Exile 2 tokens and turn them into gas.

Feel free to check out my list for ideas. It's currently the 2nd ranked Isshin list on the site, so upvotes are appreciated. Isshin - Army of Darkness

Many suggestions here. Some you should absolutely get, others just worth considering.

Lands

Spectator Seating

Artifacts

Mana Crypt Talisman of Conviction Boros Signet Sunforger Worn Powerstone Coalition Relic Akroma's Memorial

Enchantments

Grasp of Fate Stranglehold Aura of Silence True Conviction

Creatures Aven Mindcensor Linvala, Keeper of Silence Drannith Magistrate Esper Sentinel Serra Ascendant Burnished Hart Solemn Simulacrum

Finally a combo in {R}{W}: Sun Titan + Goblin Bombardment + Gift of Immortality / Angelic Renewal = infinite damage. Maybe not your thing, but you're already running Sun Titan, and the other pieces aren't bad.

Looking at your list, the thing that stands out the most is that you have a pretty high mana curve but not a huge amount of cheap ramp. Cards like Arcane Signet, Talisman of Conviction, Boros Signet and even Mind Stone will help you speed up your deck. Additionally, cards like Akiri, Fearless Voyager will help you with card advantage, given your number of equipment. On the flipside, cards like Feather, the Redeemed add basically nothing here as you have all of one instant/sorcery that you would want to keep casting on your creatures over and over.
