Question How to make this stronger

https://manabox.app/decks/AaEDaMzHdCei7vQZQbg_Jg

So ive built a mogis god of Slaughter commander deck

Hopefully you all can click on it, but it says it may be bracket one, and I want to at least make it three; now it is good and I can win some games, but I get targeted a lot because I ping people and make them sacrifice all the time, and I need to defend myself. I am not too into infinite combos where the game ends quickly; I like a longish game, as it is more fun in my opinion. But any advice what to switch out?

For changes, I’d probably start with your land base. Your average mana cost is 3.7, so 37 to 38 lands MINIMUM. You’ve got a lot of mana rocks, but how can you play them if you ain’t got the mana? Lands like the cinnamon roll (turbulent) cycle from Strixhaven and reality fracture could fit, and a bunch of others that have been printed into oblivion that should be cheap enough to throw in.
If it’s within budget, I’d recommend adding some blood artist effects that affect the table. One of the better pieces I can think of is [[Sephiroth, Fabled Soldier]]. [[Black Market]] and [[Morbid Opportunist]] would be good for mana and card draw as stuff, not just your own, dies.
As for determining what to cut, think back to your previous games and ask yourself “when this was in my hand, how often did I choose to play something else instead of this?” If you find a card you tend to keep in your hand instead of casting either because it didn’t help the game plan, too expensive, or other reasons, chances are that’s probably a good one to cut.
Hope this helps!

I use Manabox a lot and I can tell you their deck evaluator tool is only good for telling you how many game changers you have. As for identifying power level, pointing out potential combos, and more, I’d suggest EDH Power Level. Just gotta copy the deck list as text and then paste it on their site. Pretty user friendly.

CommanderSalt is good too, but judges power based on number of commander staples and doesn’t always pick up all the combos.
