Twinblade Paladin

Creature — Human Knight

Whenever you gain life, put a +1/+1 counter on Twinblade Paladin.

As long as you have 25 or more life, Twinblade Paladin has double strike. (It deals both first-strike and regular combat damage.)

Sunbond, Nykthos Paragon, Twinblade Paladin, Resplendent Angel, Aetherflux Reservoir, Sigarda's Summons, Gideon's Company, Nykthos Paragon, Ageless Entity, Soul Warden, Soul's Attendant, Suture Priest, and Rhox Faithmender are all decent additions. Heliod, Sun-Crowned is good also.

Oh and Archangel of Thune.

Nice build. IDK what your budget is, but Archangel of Thune would be epic in here. You could remove something like Celestial Unicorn etc. for it.

Twinblade Paladin is a cheaper and easy upgrade for Celestial Unicorn, too.

I would drop Light of Promise, since big auras tend to attract kill spells. Maybe replace it with Drogskol Reaver? Goes infinite with Queza, Augur of Agonies or Shabraz, the Skyshark.

You can also definitely drop 2-3 lands with your mana curve,

I always loved Trelissara's design. Sadly, my lifegain deck is Esper, so she didn't really fit! I don't know if this helps at all, but I think of my deck in terms of lifegain enablers (our Soul Warden and friends that gain us life) and payoffs (things that benefit us when we gain life, like Trudge Garden).

I would pay special attention to one thing with life gain payoffs: a lot of the cards care about one of 2 things...either 'instance of life gain' (the ones worded 'whenever'...they do not care how much life you gain, just if you do or not), and the ones that care about quantity (the ones worded 'if you gained X or more life).

You're going to want to sculpt your life gain enablers in the deck around what of those you have, and how much life gain they want you to have in a turn, to make sure they can hit your X.

I would consider that a little more next time you play, pay attention to what cards want what effects.

For example, my deck is built entirely around the 'instance of life gain effects', so I seldom need to worry about how much I gain.

That said, some weak spots I noticed: Benevolent Bodyguard, Ilysian Caryatid, Soulmender, From Beyond, Indomitable Might, Hedgewitch's Mask. These are excellent places to start with upgrades! They're not bad on their own, but we can do better!

Note on Aetherflux Reservoir: There are some playgroups that playing this will just get you ganged up on. I always caution people about that. If that's fine with you, it's a strong card. I didn't find it could gain enough life to make it worth it in my deck.

Some possible (not too expensive) upgrades that I enjoy:

Good in an 'instance of life gain' deck: Linden, the Steadfast Queen, Sunscorch Regent, Suture Priest, Gideon's Company, Twinblade Paladin, Omen of the Sun, Ajani's Pridemate, Oketra's Monument, Regna, the Redeemer

Good in a 'gain X or more life' deck: Nykthos Paragon, Gideon Blackblade

Good in both: Dusk / Dawn, Austere Command, Dawn of Hope, Shamanic Revelation

Glad to see mono white lifegain decks still alive and kicking. Have you considered adding the Martyr of Sands + Abiding Grace package? It let's you recur the soul sisters too, and Serra Ascendant which is probably a removal magnet. You could also run more beaters like Champion of the Parish and Speaker of the Heavens that are 1 cmc over stuff like Lone Rider  Flip and Twinblade Paladin.

I felt Twinblade Paladin was good enough for deck. Click here check it out, upvote it, criticize it, and make suggestions. I'm not totally sure that this is how it should be built. But I'm happy with it. I hope you guys enjoy the list.

I'm struggling to build the Undead Augur good enough for me to release it to the compendium. But when it's ready of course I'll post it here first.

You should try Crush Contraband instead of Blessed Light and maybe Ajani's Pridemate or Twinblade Paladin instead of your eldrazi to get a cheaper finisher
