Lich's Mastery + Sanguine Bond

The idea is to live long enough to play Lich's Mastery , then use lifegain to draw your whole deck and power Sanguine Bond and Wall of Limbs . I've found that Feed the Clan works well with Accursed Witch   and Deathless Knight . Fountain of Renewal and Infectious Curse can be used to bring Deathless Knight back from the graveyard at every upkeep for consistency. Lifegain sources can also be used for card draw when Lich is down and life-loss when Sanguine Bond is in. Sideboard in Lost Legacy to shut down combo decks or Duress or Never / Return for spot removal.

I wish I could put in more of my favorites like Immortal Coil and Psychosis Crawler but this is Pioneer so I can't :)
