Welcome to Children of Death, my first cEDH build. I'm looking for input on how to make this deck better, and what I should be doing in terms of the landbase. There are a few things that I am not familiar with, and one of the main things I struggle with is deckbuilding, but I also feel like I have done something special with this build.

In terms of being special, it is that I like to leverage my life total as a resource a lot, so I came up with this deck idea in lieu of that. Originally, the deck was led by Ikra Shidiqui, and Ishai, Ojutai Dragonspeaker. Now, it is piloted by Tyma and Thrasios, as I needed an advantage engine in the command zone as I was having problems drawing the cards I needed to come to a win.

The main thing I am looking for here is advice on what I should do with the deck, as I am not happy with where the landbase is.

This deck does have some additional win cons, aside from the Children of Korlis + Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose . They are Demonic Consultation + Thassa's Oracle , as well as Chain of Smog + Witherbloom Apprentice . I do have the Dramatic Reversal + Isochron Scepter in here, for an extra way to dig through with Thrasios other than Bolas's Citadel + Necropotence .

Any input and tips would be greatly apppreciated.
