Is your priority in replacing Nyx-Fleece Ram having a strong early blocker, or lifegain? If it's the former, Fortified Rampart is 0/6 for 2cc. The only 2cc lifegain options I'm aware of in your colors are Stone Haven Medic & Zulaport Cutthroat. Since lifegain is kind of a thing w/ Allies, I'm sure there's other cards available, but I stuck w/ 2cc, since that's what Ram is.

Is there anything else you would take out and change other than the ram. And there's no life gain in my deck it's all control by removal. Any devoid spells or any eldrazi I should add in

The lifegain was the Ram, which is why I asked...I would replace Sandblast w/ Stasis Field & Ultimate Price w/ Ruinous Path. As for Eldrazi/Devoid, other than the afore-mentioned spells, there's not a lot that has synergy w/ what you're doing...Mortuary Mire is a land you might consider, along w/ the tango lands. To play Eldrazi/Devoid, though, I think you'd be looking at a whole different deck.

Sorry, I meant to say Blighted Fen, not Mortuary Mire (another option to force opponent to sac a creature).

you could always run ondu cleric instead of ram? as a 1/3 he blocks ok, and he gains life on ETB.

The main thing you want to work towards, and trade into is land for this deck. Id replace at least one of each of your gain lands for tango lands.

In BFZ, the lands that come into play tapped unless you control 2 basic lands.

Thinking of taking out tragic arrogance, Ugin and either otjutai soul of winter or Necromaster dragon. What should I replace them with. Also do you think aligned hedron network should go in the deck.

Some spells to consider from BFZ Quarantine Field, Retreat to Coralhelm, Retreat to Emeria, Stasis Snare, Sheer Drop, Scatter to the Winds, Ruinous Path, Roil Spout, Planar Outburst, Clutch of Currents and Painful Truths.

Planeswalkers to consider would be Gideon, Ally of Zendikar and Ob Nixils Reignited.

Lands with effects Blighted Cataract, Blighted Fen, Blighted Steppe and Skyline Cascade

Battlelands that are in your colors Prairie Stream and Sunken Hollow
