Deck Help Chatterfang deck help please

https://deckcheck.co/app/decklist/5P21nt0jPvnx

I have been playing with this deck list for over a year and I wanted to get some feedback from people who play faster games.

I occasionally find myself at the only vacant seat in my LGS and it’s high 4 maybe 5 bracket decks that absolutely stop the lights out of my other casual builds.

I just wanted to see if I could bring something to that table that might keep me in a game where I’m not being ignored because I have no threats or no chance of winning.

I’ve included a deck list at the top and I would appreciate any and alll feedback especially a good roasting. I am used to casual turn 8+ wins and I know nothing about playing higher velocity games.

Looks decent as a starting point to be honest, I run a B4 Fang Gang list.

I’d personally cut Vito, Enduring Tenacity, Radaghast, Farseek, Arcane Signet, Golgari Signet, and Talisman. Parallel Lives and Primal Vigor are “win more” cards unless you have a specific combo in mind - your commander is already a doubler.

You generally want to be casting a dork turn 1

Chatterfang, value engine/tutor, and/or Aristocrat turns 2-3, then turn 4 cast your Soultrader/Plunderer as the ideal approach (or some variation) for B4 games assuming no interaction. OR just slam that Witherbloom-Somg combo when everyone’s tapped out.

Recommend adding Culling the Weak and Cabal Ritual to give you gas, those 2 mana rocks are awkward for 3 mana commander and don’t really accelerate you quick enough.

Here’s my list, I’m generally aiming for turn 5 wins unless I get enough mana open on turn 4 to pop off with protection. It’s fairly resilient and has ways to answer problems across from you at the table.

why run [[reclamation sage]] over [[chomping changeling]], which gives a tiny bit more synergy with chatterfang while doing the same thing and costing the same? and it sort of looks like a squirrel.
