Aunt May and Guide of Souls may be a good addition for Soul Sis' lifegain redundancy, although they are also a support for Spider-man and Energy-centered decks, respectively.
You may consider some underrated cards, like The Restoration of Eiganjo Flip and Ajani, Strength of the Pride, which has multiple utilities, all wellcome to most monowhite decks.
Also, there are some artifacts, between my favorites: Well of Lost Dreams and Aetherflux Reservoir.

Great lifegain build! +1
I would recommend a few more card draw effects like Well of Lost Dreams and The Gaffer.
I would also recommend a few more ramp effects like Knight of the White Orchid and Arcane Signet.

Double Trouble - Prison Time !
2 months ago
Current problems - Open to suggestions
37 Land Mana base:
-
Islands are needed but scarce. Shocklands are not considered due to power-level of my local store and friends group.
-
If I remove some basic lands in exchange for some (slow) dual lands, I could also drop Scrying Sheets to make room for cards on the maybeboard.
Slow cards / lackluster mid to late game
These cards could be removed in favor of maybeboard
-
Transcendent Master (less value than some cards on maybeboard)
-
Cradle of Vitality (Tutor-able, but costly draw compared to alternatives)
Maybeboard to consider
Way better synergies:
-
Azor, the Lawbringer for more control
-
Drogskol Reaver for better draw
-
Grand Abolisher for prison/control
-
Heliod, Sun-Crowned for more buffs & lifegain
-
Sphinx of the Revelation, which becomes a 3CMC flying/lifelink 3/5 with card draw
Deck currently lacks
-
Board wipes other than Ajani, Strength of the Pride
-
Single creature boosts like Lightning Greaves, Swiftfoot Boots or similar

Life gain hurts huh?

Considering the lifegain theme combined with an aristocrats style gameplay based on creatures dying, I would recommend for your consideration Veinwitch Coven, Pest Infestation, Starscape Cleric, Creeping Bloodsucker, (Possibly, depending on token generation) Mirkwood Bats, and possibly cut Epicure of Blood since 5 mana is a lot to ask for an effect you're getting more efficiently elsewhere.
Also recommend Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose for doubling up on life loss, Well of Lost Dreams for a consistent draw engine, Scavenging Ooze for graveyard hate that synergizes with your play pattern, Bloodthirsty Conqueror is a duplicate of Exquisite Blood that goes infinite with your commander, Prosperous Innkeeper for one shot ramp strapped to a soul-sister type of effect, and some sac outlets like Viscera Seer wouldn't go amiss since you really want things to die. Phyrexian Reclamation also suits this playstyle well since you'll likely have more life than you know what to do with, your creatures are mostly cheap to cast, and being able to instant speed recur your creatures to hand is valuable in this archetype.
Hope this helps!
