Deck discussion for Life Gain, Token Mayhem!!!

Hi there, I'm building a budget white human deck that’s why I stumbled over your deck :)
Some problems I noticed here:
First of 3 color is often risky in a budget environment.
Your deck is 90% white, so if you want to keep all 3 colors w/u and w/g duo land should be your choice.
Looking at your color base I’d cut blue though.
Prophet of Kruphix is 5 mana for a card that does nothing if you have an empty board and if you have many creatures you should win easier.
Invocation of Saint Traft has strong numbers 4/4 body for 3 mana is powerfull. But its highly risky. If you a enchant non-hexproof human with it, your opponent could easily 2for1 you by blocking or lightning-bolting the target…
With no need for blue, w/g even has 2 gain lands: Blossoming Sands and Graypelt Refuge, therefore playing 3 of those each will net you the same amount of access to green.

Aegis of the God seems to be a True Believer with 1 less toughness for no reason as you will never target yourself?!
Evangel of Heliod is interesting. I do like it. If it get close to cmc7 I’m starting to compare cards to Martial Coup as that card is highly flexible and basically wins you the game with 7 mana…

Gideon's Avenger + Imposing Sovereign is a sweet liitle combo :)
Sigarda, Heron's Grace is sweet to.
In a token deck I do like Angelic Skirmisher as she gives them all a nice effect.

Chaplain's Blessing, no just no. As a sorcery its slow and gives you no field presents for your card.
Soul Warden is a human that gives you much more life in a token deck.
If u need immediate life Cathedral Sanctifier at least has a body and does gain 3 life.

Raise the Alarm is a nice card in token deck. You are not that committed to tokens (otherwise I’d also recommend Intangible Virtue). In that regard 4x Second Harvest seems a lot?
Also they are only soldiers. What do you think of permanent token producers like Thraben Doomsayer or Precinct Captain?
Maybe those two are too slow for your deck and you need those the chump block your way to the early game!?

Over all I do like some ideas. Hope to have a discussion with you :)

yeah i have a modern tourney 4 days from now and i might go but some of the cards that you mentioned i more then likely dont have. but i truly do appreciate the input, it has really opened my eyes to really see what the deck actually does. i took out 9 cards and replaced them with others but now with you saying what you have...has really got me rethinking the whole deck in general. i would love for some more help and input to get this deck ready for tournaments but i am cutting it close on time till the tourney.

All cards I mentioned are budget and should be easy tradeable. If not we can find replacements.
You could clone this deck, name it Version 1.0 and then Update your list here and link the other one here in the description. Then we would know what we currently work with :)

Do you plan on keeping 3 colors? If you are going a bit more viable g/w the Selesnya Charm is also powerful.
I'm sure we can discover more.

Guess you found my deck as it got a like? What you think of it? Especially the 2 drop slow is crowded. So many good potentially good cards :/
