I tried throwing together a rat tribal deck based off recommendations I could find online and edhrec but I'm not sure about my ratios. I originally wanted at least 35 lands and had 25 rat colonies (now down to 20) for thrumming stone Ashcoat seems to be like the only recursion I really need for rat colonies but if I were to pivot and use marrow -gnawer as my commander I think I'm lacking rat generation

If there are any recommendations of cards ideally on theme for a rat tribal that you think I missed please let me know! I'm still pretty new so my actual card knowledge is pretty minimal

This is a for fun deck and I haven't tested it yet so I'm hoping it fits in my friend's group level of strength. Nor do I intend on joining any kind of tournaments with it
