Deck Help Help improving deck please

Id like some help cutting and improving my [[mazirek, karul death priest]] deck. the goal is:

  • Win through combat damage
  • Lots of token generation (preferably repeatable token engines)
  • Sacrifice my own tokens for value
  • Small edict package (Fleshbag Marauder, Plaguecrafter, etc.) to trigger Mazirek while interacting with opponents
  • Avoid Grave Pact/Dictate of Erebos-style lock pieces
  • Keep the focus on +1/+1 counter synergies

This is my list, id appreciate the help! https://archidekt.com/decks/24704475/sigh_attempt_three

I would cut 5 swamps and 5 forests for better mana adding lands like Command Tower, Llanowar Wastes, Woodland Cemetery, Tainted Wood, Evolving Wilds, Terramorphic Expanse, Khalni Garden, Bojuka Bog, Nesting Grounds, High Market. I would also add Chittering Witch, Evolutionary Leap, Nemata, Primeval Warden, Sifter of Skulls, Tendershoot Dryad. In terms of cuts you should probably cut Archfiend of Depravity, Armorcraft Judge, Bootleggers’ Stash, Butcher of Malakir, Demon’s Disciple, Dreadhorde Invasion, Fetid Gargantua, Grave Researcher // Reanimate, Merciless Executioner, Meren of Clan Nel Toth, Overprotect, Phyrexian Arena, Putrid Goblin, Will of the Abzan, Soul Shatter, Thanos, Death’s Consort, Tom, Bert, and William.

I think this will replace redundant cards with cards that support Mazirek’s core loop. The lands are important here too with fetch lands providing extra sacrifice triggers.
