A version of soul sisters that gives up the aggro options to focus on lifegain and potential Felidar Sovereign wins. Since this is a later game deck I've added (and sideboard) some control elements, primarily Journey to Nowhere but if you need more versatile removal there are Oblivion Rings and Sundering Growths in the sideboard. Well of Lost Dreams is amazing lategame draw, and can refill your hand when basically anything happens. Spectral Procession doesn't directly gain you life but you usually have a sister out and you'll probably need flying blockers, or some evasive damage to finish them off. Ajani's Pridemate is pretty self-explanatory how amazing it is, Lone Rider   can really perform against decks that can't remove it before it flips, and it will be easier to flip once I've made the substitutions below (You could instead use a Martyr of Sands for burst healing, that's just not my preference). Celestial Mantle is a just a fun-of for me, you can just swap it for a plains as it's really not going to do much if they have any removal and the curve is high enough to support a 24 land deck.

The maybeboard has some less budget options for improving the deck, like subbing the underperforming 4x Brave the Elements and 2x Angelic Accord for the 3x Nyx-Fleece Ram and 3x Rhox Faithmender but I haven't bought them yet. Path to Exile is better than Journey to Nowhere and Archangel of Thune or Auriok Champion are both amazing cards, you should run them if you have the money.
