Where there is life, there must also be death; Unless, perhaps, you're immortal!

I'm a fan of the Combo Wall of Reverence + Wall of Limbs with Sanguine Bond

Also Wall of Limbs can be replaced with either Bloodbond Vampire or Ajani's Pridemate

I've also used a Wall of Reverence + Wall of Limbs with Aetherflux Reservoir

Combine those with any of Alhammarret's Archive or Rhox Faithmender or Defiant Bloodlord and Boon Reflection

Also a fan of the Exquisite Blood + Sanguine Bond And any Life gain trigger.

I've tried to build this deck to provide multiple situations for the same scenarios. I have a lot of fun playing it. Though it is nearly entirely defensive. I do feel I need to aquire an Archangel of Thune which could really help the offensive portion of the deck, but without anyway to really fish for cards aside from Well of Lost Dreams I'd be relying totally on luck. I'm not sure this deck is as fast-paced as it needs to be to have a really competitive edge, but it is a lot of fun to play and i'm really enjoying where it's at now!

I'm open to suggestions on improving the speed the deck plays. I'm finding it takes a good 15-20 turns ( permitted i don't get blessed with a perfect opening hand) to really get this deck moving... if the game lasts more than 30-35 turns... my life Gain is almost unfathomable.

I'm not sure how long the average game lasts for those super competitive decks, but i feel like the ramp up is super slow here!
