The deck is at the point where every cut is brutal... except those mandated by the format banlist :) Happy to see Field return from whence it came.
Lich is one of those cards that is just a bit too variable, sometimes it's an absolute house, holding down the ground and filtering every successive draw (and it's incredible with cards like Search for Azcanta Flip), but a lot of the time it's just a big dummy that doesn't block fliers and hurts you too much to activate.
Gyruda has a lot of solid mid/late-game hits, notably Muldrotha herself, several that recur creatures, Twilight Prophet and Kinnan, Bonder Prodigy.
Hadama's Climb wins some games here and there, and contributes to devotion, however it has always been a bit of an awkward include, and Gonti is exactly the kind of grindy value card that excels in sultai decks like this.
I cut a castle that ramps in green for Craterhoof because greed overwhelming...
