An attempt at creating a casual karlov repeated life gain build. I am not aiming for massive life totals but many instances of life gain and use for that life gain. I don't like infinite combos as decks often become all about that combo and it makes games less interactive which I find defeats the purpose of being a game. IE. when one player just instant wins turn four-six the others players often just watched you play your deck out so how is that a game.

This includes the infinite combo because all cards involved are great on there own but I hope it does not define this deck. I am also not adding aetherflux even though it would be an easy add because I find it is just too broken in edh and not fun for casual play. -(yet again some of the best games I played I lost because all players got to see their deck perform as advertised.)

That is not to say I don't like consistency and fast-paced gameplay. Karlov can break very fast a soul sister or a Serra ascendant turn 1 into karlov turn 2 can lead to massive life swings. ranger of eos has numerous targets including those mentioned above, and hopefully, every opponent's action will fuel your life gain and your karlov, through sunscorch regent , authority of consul, kambal, consul of allocation or blood artist. Sorin lord of innistrad, legions landing and dawn of hope are to get swarms of life linkers.

true conviction and whip of erebos give all your troops life link to add more instances of life gain for each attack.

bloodgift demon, erebos god of the dead, twilight prophet, dawn of hope, pherexian arena and sorin grim nemesis are for card draw/advantage.
