Deck Description

trying to get this down to 60-62 (cards). I need more focus in this deck. I want it to be human token heavy so they can enter and add counters, as well as be sacrificed to add counters. I felt with all the sacrificing of even my non-token creatures would give me a nice graveyard where the Conjurer's Closet and Cloudshift would work nicely with Angel of Glory's Rise and even Restoration Angel (but then that may be putting way too much into this deck and actually making a deck that can easily be split in two separately focused decks). Morbid abilities works great with sacrifice as well so I decided to add some of those kind of cards in here. I'm just stuck on what to take out of this. Input would be great! Thank you!
***I'm eventually going to make the lands nonbasic lands once I figure out exactly how much of each kind of mana i'd need***

Deck discussion for Help with BWRG Human Sacrifice

I think two more Tragic Slip would be nice in this deck because if your going up against an Aggro deck then it's going to be fast pace and your deck is going to take time to "build up". I would keep the basic lands because a lot of the time, the nonbasic lands either cost 2 life to use it on the first turn or you have to tap it. The faster you can cast the better. Although, you do have 4 different mana costs, so keep the nonbasic lands to a minimum. Add two more of Champion of the Parish as well. It's a beautiful card that can add up very fast, especially with your Gather the Townsfolk. You sacrificing humans causes tons of abilities so that's very awesome. You can keep your opponent questioning what's next for the whole match. Dying Wish is an ify because it's great if you use it on a powerful creature but you may want to keep your power creature so you can win the match. It may go nicely with the Champion of the Parish with all the +1/+1 at the end of the match. With all of the tokens and creatures that going to be out, I think you should put a few Battalion cards in there as well. I would put in Boros Elite. It's 1 mana cost is beautiful for it's +3/+3 damage with Battalion. Get raid of Cathedral and put Boros Elite in. I would rather deal damage then gain damage. The reason is, Cathedral only gives you life only one time while with Boros Elite, it can take away your opponents life every turn. I would take Cloudshift out. You don't have many creatures that have "When blahblah enters the battlefield....." so it kinda makes Cloudshift nearly useless. With Hunger of the Howlpack, you have so many +1/+1 ablities that this isn't really needed. Get raid of Deranged Outcast. You shouldn't pay 3 mana just to sacrifice a creature and it's only a +1/+1 that you get in return. You can sacrifice a human for free and put your +1/+1 counter with flying onto Falkenrath.

Thanks for the input! After reading your response and looking through the cards I chose I agree that I do not need Cloudshift in there. I also agree that taking out cathedral is best, I just needed something for a 1 drop but adding more Champion of the Parish in there would be better. I don't think I have enough room to throw in more creatures, if anything I need to take two more out. I was considering the advice on taking out Deranged Outcast, but then I realized that If I did that I would only have a total of 4 cards that would let me sacrifice a creature. I feel like I need to add in more cards that will let me sacrifice so I was thinking about maybe throwing two Bone Splinters in here. Also with a quad color deck I feel like I should at least throw in some cards like Sunpetal Grove, Clifftop Retreat, etc. I just don't want to risk not having the correct mana I would need. Thanks for the help, you helped me get rid of some cards!
