Well I really like Authority of the Consuls due to life gain and it slows your opponents. I would also suggest Chalice of Life  ^Flip and Felidar Sovereign for an extra win con. I also run some Ajani's Mantra, Awe Strike and Abuna's Chant in my life gain deck. Lastly why the Forbidden Orchard?

Also would recommend signets instead of keyrunes and a couple boardwipes! :D

Wel5 Thanks man! I understand what you mean. What if I ran two Chaplain's Blessing since it's a one drop and still does the same thing that Abuna's Chant does? I could also put in the other two Flame Slash I have, and I also have a Lightning Strike I could throw in too. I'll definitely need to pick up some Lightning Bolt and Lightning Helix. As for Monastery Mentor, I have two of them actually, but I might save the deck space for more instant's for damage to the face or creatures. And whenever I have 17 dollars laying around, I'm gonna pick up a Serra Ascendant for sure, because I love the thought of a Rune-Tail, Kitsune Ascendant / Rune-Tail's Essence plus Serra Ascendant combo at 30 life to have a 6/6 with flying and lifelink for as long as possible.

Your deck looks sweet but some cards are in the deck i personally dont like, you cant win games with gaining that much life in the end (important to realise after playing against strong decks) and to less cards who improve your attack plan. So my suggestion is to remove 2xLone Missionary and 4x Abuna's Chant (so expensive for 4mana!) and play 4xLightning Bolt and probably 2xFlame Slash more because your soulfire masters. But you could also play an expensiver card like Lightning Helix I recommend you to play only 1x Narset, Enlightened Master, if you can afford it play! Monastery Mentor ( in best case two of these) so when its your main deck plan to boost your life you should play.. Serra Ascendant when you're not go more for my other ideas. i like your deflecting palm idea
