Part of the point of making this deck though, was to make a deck, not necessarily to have the best deck possible, so while I've definitely learned something from Soul Sisters, I don't think I'm going to make a carbon copy of it.
I do want to stay in Black/White for the Sanguine Bond and others, however, I think you're right that for my first deck, I don't want to do it in Legacy, and I could make an extended deck with much less work, time and money involved.
I'll put some serious thought into the cards and strategies you recommended and then probably post back into the Extended forums with a basically completed deck.
I'm a newbie when it comes to magic. I've been playing since around Zendikar, and have very little experience in the constructed format.
I recently opened a Felidar Sovereign in a draft and was inspired to make a deck. From there, I mostly looked up as many cards as I could find that fit the deck's basic function, and I looked up other decks with the same general purpose. From there I narrowed it down considerably, and this is the list I have now. At this point, I have about 41 cards and I'm not sure where to take it from here. It seems that my deck's purpose has shifted to being a triballey zombie/angel deck, and I'm not sure if that's the way I want it to go. Basically, I'd love any advice to which cards to take out.
I'm also not sure about format. In theory, it'd be nice for this to be a Legacy deck, but I'm also not sure of the monetary and time requirements of making a good one, as I'm completely unfamiliar with the metagame. For now at least, I've included cards from way back, so I've put it in the Legacy forums.
I've labeled them with their mana cost, if they're flying, and if they're an angel or a zombie.
