I've changed the deck to Black splash White, with a focus on lifegain and creature sacrifice. The cards in sideboard are what I currently have access to, and have considered adding. if you have any advice or comments, please share below!

So you purchased the black commander and now you're thinking, now what? Lol. That's alright.I'm also using the base of this deck for my commander so I can tell you what I've done with mine.First, I switched my commander to Gisa. I'm just in love with her ability. Necromancy is my favorite playstyle in magic. I put in a lot of creatures with etb/ltb effects like solemn simulacrum and shadowborn demon and put in a lot of ways to reanimate them and bounce them. Rise from the grave, whip of erebos, rise of the dark realms. I keep my opponents shut out with an army of 2/2 zombies and pick off threats with removal and sweepers. Heroes downfall, malicious affliction (I looooooove it), and mutilate. Basically just decide what you want to do and focus on it. You want to leech your opponents? Then some orzhov commander would certinly be best for you. Ghost Council might be the best. Cards like exanguinate, blood tithe, debt to deathless, and gary are your best friends. Extort stuff would be sweet, and blind obedience is a good candidate. Also, unmake would be one of your better removal cards.Don't be afraid to have fun with it. EDH is meant to be full of shennanigans so just goof around with different cards and see how they interact.

Also, sanguine bond, and another five drop black enchantment whose name eludes me combo off.The orzhov guildmage would also be good for you. And since gaining life is your goal, cards like congregate, riot control, and war report will net you huge results in a big edh game.
Thank you very much for your advice, I've found that this site doesn't really have an active community for small peer to peer information! from the side board (most of my better cards in these colors), which would you recommend I put in? and who should I make the Commander?
Definitely make room for elixer of immortality. If you're going to go b/w then the only commander option I see here is Athreos, who I think would be really cool with a bunch of sac effects and stuff like that.You want cards that have definite, and immediate impact on the field. Unless you're meta is full of tokens, then cards like bile blight and illness in the ranks aren't that good. (And most people dont like it when you build just to hate on one particular deck) heroes downfall should move in, and doom blade isn't bad either.I like cards like merciless executioner, as he helps me put creatures back into my graveyard just to pull out again. To tell you what cards to pull out and swap in all depends on you. If you go two colors then obviously cards like lashwrithe and corrupt lose value immediately. If you do use Athreos as a commander then cards like Champion of Stray Souls gain value. You almost always want to maximize on your commander. Athreos has big potential. I actually really like the idea. Just play it and figure out what works. Practice makes perfect!
I've made some changes based on how I WANT it to behave, and input would be appreciated. I still need to remove about 7, and could use some suggestions, for what to take out and what cards would be good to put in for white that might do the same as some of the black cards.
Stuffy doll, blood seeker, tragic slip, stab wound, crypt ghast and two lands
exquisite blood is the 5 drop enchant he was talking about that combos with sanguine bond but you can also combo it with vizkopa guildmage. a good b/w commander would be obzedat, ghost council or teysa, orzhov scion
I'm currently working with what you see in the deck and sideboard, but I may invest in some of these. Is Stuffy Doll really that bad? I thought it made a good deterrent. Keep in mind, I've never play commander.
