Lifegain deck

Hi guys !

I tried to put together a Lifegain deck that also focuses on getting the opponent to lose without relying on creature power too much.

So the principle here is to get : - As much life as possible, as fast as possible- As much draws as possible- As much mana as possible

Using this synergy : Cliffhaven Vampire or Sanguine Bond and Rhox Faithmender or Alhammarret's Archive. Getting the life from stuff like Martyr of Sands or Soul Warden or even the lifelink creatures we got !

Getting Life

The thing with a lifegain deck is that you're gonna gain soooo much life. And then, you'll try to spend it to kill the opponent and win the game (hopefully). So here is, first, how you'll gain this precious life :

• Martyr of Sands
• Suture Priest
• Survival Cache
• Rest for the Weary
• Soul Warden

There aren't that many of them but look, we're gonna booooooost them with the cards in the folowing section : THE HOLLY BOOSTS

THE HOLLY BOOSTS

• Rhox Faithmender
• Alhammarret's Archive
• Celestial Mantle I only put one of these... since it's so broken I couldn't resist to at least get the chance to be able to use it at some point... I mean... DOUBLE. LIFE. TOTAL. The lifegain's wet dream.

The DAMAGES !

So here we are... You're getting crazy amount of life and now you're like "ok, how do I end this now ?". Well sir, here is how :

• Cliffhaven Vampire
• Suture Priest

And remember that with Sanguine Bond and Cliffhaven Vampire every time you gain life they loose some.

The Draws and Mana

Since everything has a cost and since what you got the most here is life... LET'S PAY WITH LIFE and draw !Draws : - Alhammarret's Archive- Survival Cache

Mana :

• Mana Confluence
• Channel

You'll also notice the lands
