This deck was built around a Soul Sisters lifegain theme, an anthem theme, and instant speed token making.

The general idea is that you can use instant speed tokens with various effects to change how your opponents see the board. Fliers that kill planeswalkers out of nowhere, surprise blockers, miscalculated life totals, etc.

I wanted to avoid cards that focused too much on Marath since I believe they take too much away from the deck when Marath is unavailable. Hardened Scales is one such card. Cathar's Crusade, Bow of Nylea, etc are already great cards for tokens that just happen to be great with Marath as well, and therefore make the cut.

I've been having a ton of fun with this deck, particularly the Soul Sisters aspect of it. The life gain has kept me in games that I've had no business being in otherwise. Thoughts and opinions are appreciated.
