In this deck, the lifegain is not just about stalling into the bombs but it also acts as a resource. Sometimes to create card advantage, and sometimes to damage the opponent. It has fared well at FNM, but if Erebos is played against it, this deck pretty much shuts down. Thus the Angelic Edicts. I am looking for help tweaking this deck, and sideboard.
