Trostani deck centered around life-gain and token generation. The basic idea is to use life gain as a cushion to build a board state and swing in for the kill. There are many of scary things in the deck to go up against, and that makes life-gain an ideal triggered ability whilst populating big tokens to further the advantage on the board.

Phyrexian Processor is absolutely my favorite card in the deck. At 8 mana with Trostani, Selesnya's Voice out, you can pay all but 5 of your life and generate a massive token, gaining back all the lost life in the same turn.

There is protection for my things in the form of Privileged Position, which gives all of my other permanents hexproof.

The best lifegain engine in the deck however, is Serra Avatar. Resolving this with Trostani out doubles your life total and gives you one beefy dude to whack someone with. But wait, there's more! Dragon Throne of Tarkir + Serra Avatar turns all of your creatures into beefy, scary Lay-the-Smackdown-on-Your-Face beaters with trample.

This deck is fun to play and really abuses the commander's triggered ability. As always, any suggestions are welcome but please keep the comments constructive and friendly.
