I recently started playing mtgo again and decided to go the edh route. My idea was to make a deck that is interesting to play and has a silver-bullet answer most of the time with Survival of the Fittest.
So I mostly focused on cards that have good ETB or on Hit-Effects which are amplified by Aurelia, the Warleader
Now I have some issues that I could use some help with:
- I'm sometimes mana-screwed, what are cheap/good solutions for this (in mtgo)
- I have some issues with clearing the board, currently I only have my general and Sunblast Angel. Especially tokens are tricky, here I considered Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite or Massacre Wurm. Do you have other suggestions or which one is better?

Now I have some issues that I could use some help with:

- I have some issues with clearing the board, currently I only have my general and Sunblast Angel. Especially tokens are tricky, here I considered Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite or Massacre Wurm. Do you have other suggestions or which one is better?
- I'm unhappy with Geth, Lord of the Vault and Oona, Queen of the Fae, too often I want to play utility more than them. I was considering the Inferno Titan and Grave Titan as replacements.
- I will get Sneak Attack in future, anything that matches well with it?
- I was originally going for a reanimator theme, but it slowly changing. Anything that my deck could use that is reasonably (>8tix) priced?
Mostly I'm looking for fun mechanics or the ability to make interesting plays. I don't like to combo or simply mash faces, any recommendations?
Any help is much appreciated, especially how to make the game more interesting:)
Edit: I'm also generating quite an amount of tokens, what are the best uses for them?
