nice vid! love lifegain. if you take out 4 plains for 4 pain lands that might be a free way to trigger the Essence Channeler sometimes. I used that trick a lot in my bats deck. I'm also pretty hyped to try out Hop To It, Season of the Burrow, and Case of the Uneaten Feast in this shell!
The pain land idea is pretty cool, I think you could also use Skrelv's Hive for a similar purpose of losing you life while also getting life gain triggers off Linden/Santifier/Lifecreed Duo/Uneaten Feast
Tried the deck and it worked pretty well. Liked the sry of the Ruin-Lurker Bat as you suggested. Also triggering the flying on the Essence Channeler with Skrelv helped me to victory against a Colgari opponent.
Love these new lifegain brews, because the meta is so aggro and brutal and that life really does matter, does add up over time. Been trying to tinker with it for a while
Please make a mono green stompy! It's my favorite archetype, and I'd love to see your twist, or at least your insight. I know it's pretty straght forward to make, but I'd appreciate it
How are you liking foundations drop? I’ve heard a lot of complaints about it. I don’t get it either. I looked through the some of the new cards and was like good I’m hoping standard has better options vs only playing removal to win the game.
Maybe the deck works better in the meta around mythic rank. But in the lower ranks, it's more or less unplayable in my opinion. Ok, i just played 10 atches so far. But it's extremely bad against black. Red is ok. U/W or W/R control are bad matchups. It just seems like ecverything except Red aggro is a bad matchup. There is just too much spot- and massremoval around.
I think you got lucky with the matches. Life gain only wins against aggro but loses to everything else. I would consider this "jank" with the current metagame.
Says an avarage control player lifegain btw wins a lot against midrange and control it’s biggest weakness are combo decks and it’s not „luck“ if u don’t play against a combo deck in standard ranked
I built this deck and am crushing locals. This has great matchups. Thank you!

Orzhov lifegain next? nice vid!
29:37 Yes, there is a reason they trade with the smaller pridemate. Channeler has text :)

GGs. Our deck is pretty stacked against heavy creature decks 😅
I was the loss in the game that starts at 8:55 had sunfall in hand but got mana screwed lol
Really looking forward to foundations, seems to be a great set :)
Wow, fast turn around for a Foundation play and video edit!
Thran Portal or even Caves of Koilos could be used to ping you for damage to trigger flying for the Essence Channeler.
Love the video

Seems more like a race to below 100 😊...nice deck. I love lifegain.
Thank you for not immediately going for the OTK combo that I know I'm going to see for a week
Hey Doc, running 4 Thran Portals will work in your mana base as well for damaging yourself.
You're better off going with caves of koilos or something, since they always come in untapped
Should i run some number of any white mana producing pain lands to enable channeler?
That first boros player was crying that they didn't get the SBG for that massive essence channeler haha
Didn't see "Authority of the consuls"
Strong in mirror aggro and Mono red

Trigger Trigger!
Why not splash a pain land?

Linden and primate back to standard?!?!?! Don't mind if I do!!!!
GG man, was cool to run into you! I was inspired by your deck and immediately tried to make my own version after our match. Well played

So it's like Adeline, just not as good. 😅
