This deck is concentrated on lifegain and card advantage and it's meant to outlast everyone. Some cards contribute on several goals of the deck and I'll list them separately on each category, so there will be some overlap, but bare with me.

Lifegain

• Azorius Herald
• Divinity of Pride 8/8 Flying Lifelink is nuts for 5 mana.
• Drogskol Cavalry is a steady source of lifegain.
• Drogskol Reaver Serves several purposes and is one of the key cards here.
• Felidar Sovereign is one of the wincons.
• Ghost Council of Orzhova sacing tokens provide a steady source of lifegain and chumpblocks while doing so.
• Ghost-Lit Redeemer
• Hopeful Eidolon
• Obzedat, Ghost Council steady lifegain.
• Souls of the Faultless is great.
• Thief of Hope
• Dromar's Charm is a toolbox.
• Sphinx's Revelation provides for both our main goals.
• Oloro, Ageless Ascetic is the nuttiest commander for our deck. It has tools for everything this deck wants to do.
• Vault of the Archangel is great with board presence.
• Venser's Journal
• Devouring Greed can oneshot someone while getting us to our wincons. Can win the game on the spot.
• Genju of the Fields is a decent spirit "manland" lifegain.

• Angel of Flight Alabaster is pretty good in this tribal.
• Drogskol Reaver is crazy with all the life we get.
