Vile manifestation would be extremely good, if you're playing so many cycle cards, it provides an early cheap blocker that just gets bigger, andafterwards it becomes a 4/4 that can also get bigger

Also, it should be possible with this deck to regularly have two Gifts out by turn-5-6
Did you consider adorned pouncer? having a 1/1 double strike for two to later have a 4/4 double strike for 6 is no laughing matter, it would also give you a Bomb, which I feel are lacking a bit in your deck
Reasons I am not using a ramp deck:It needs green (PS : I don't like playing green )Green implies BIGGER creatures by turn 5-6 than 4/4 (see sandwurm convergence)If you're ramping, you have a better plan in mind.I made this deck to take advantage of the numerous things smaller creatures avec access to more easily ( unblockable, lifelink, etc), while having a virtual card advantage in other eternalise/embalm cards in the graveyard.I HATE green (^^)Also, gate allows you to cycle your cards out for free while putting creatures in your graveyard , creatures that you actually want to be in your graveyard AND delays a bit your potential loss by giving you lifeSo yeah, while ultimately it might seem easier to use a ramp deck to get out Gift, ultimately, you would just be standing there at FNM asking yourself why you had settled for something good, while you could have done waaaaaaaaaaaay better with the ramp base
http://www.mtgvault.com/seigren/decks/eternal-gifts/Not quite done yet, but it's getting there, I need some real play testing and then I'll be able to sya if it works or not
I think that anointed procession comes way too late into play for it to have any effect, maybe put a regal caracal in there, if you eternalise it with AP it gives you two 4/4 regal caracals which each gives you 4 tokens for agrand total of 8 3/3 lifelink. I also do not see how you are ever going to be able to cheat god pharaoh's gift into play if you embalm so many creatures, you need 6 creatures in your graveyard and embalming exiles them from it.I myself am making a deck around God pharaoh's gift, I'll link it to you if you want when I'm done with it
