So what I'm trying to achieve here is a deck that will have a life of it's own, or you know, a 1000. Running a lot of strong creatures that has a close interaction with lifegain by either getting +1/+1 counters, giving life or fucking up for everyone else, yes I'm looking at you Karlov of the Ghost Council. This is backed up by several enchantments for protection and further lifegain. This deck does NOT run many counter or removal spells...I'D LOVE YOUR INPUT! YES YOU!NOTES

-Everflowing Chalice might be good mana ramp -Sphinx of the Steel Wind might suit this deck

Some combos:

• Cradle of Vitality + Karlov of the Ghost Council + Sunbond if I can get some solid lifegain with one of these enchantments, well bye bye to opponents creatures.
• Celestial Mantle + Daxos of Meletis + Steel of the Godhead were made for each other!
• Epic mana ramp with Cabal Coffers + Crypt Ghast + Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth !!
• Boonweaver Giant + Ephara's Radiance + Sunbond will make boonweaver very strong. You get Sunbond for free with boonweaver = nice!
• Ainok Bond-Kin will give a nice buff to all of our creatures with +1/+1 counters. Hopefully ever creature :)
• Defiant Bloodlord just what? This with Rhox Faithmender is too stronk!
• Sunbeam Spellbomb is nice because I can wait to heal myself until I've gotten all the cards out that give me healing benefits (like +1/+1 counters)
