Selesnya life gain theros

Standard*

Sakage


Sideboard


Selesnya. its all about keeping your dudes safe and pumping them up! they like to be big bad asses. the ultimate goal is to ramp into an archangel and beat their face in.

turn 1: Temple Garden, Elvish Mystic

turn 2: Plains - many possible paths here. if you have another Elvish Mystic and a Soldier of the Pantheon drop that, Fleecemane Lion is ridiculously good, Fiendslayer Paladin and Fabled Hero are also solid choices, especially if you have an Ethereal Armor/Unflinching Courage in hand.

turn 3: land Heliod, God of the Sun, Nylea, God of the Hunt Ajani, Caller of the Pride, Spear of Heliod, or Bow of Nylea are all solid plays here. again buffing your dudes in some manner.

turn 4: land Archangel of Thune or more enchants. with Archangel of Thune being the best play if you had a Fiendslayer Paladin or a Fabled Hero since you now have devotion of 5 for Heliod, God of the Sun.

turn 5: dead? you have a bajillion life? game over?

sideboard - take out the gods and stuff if they are showing a lot of enchantment hate, put in things like Selesnya Charm, Advent of the Wurm, Armada Wurm.

Ready / Willing against board wipes and Loxodon Smiter's vs control.

Primeval Bounty if you somehow need more sustain late game.

Guildscorn Ward against multicolored kill spells to save Fabled Hero and Archangel of Thune.
