Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (15 cards)


Sorceries (2)


Enchantments (3)

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.

I strongly recommend using 4 copies of Martyr of Sands. http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewCard.aspx?CardName=Martyr%20of%20Sands&Edition=CLD
With just one sacrifice of Martyr of Sands, your Serra Ascendant can be a 6/6 flying creature that nets you even more life as early as turn 2.. That's your strongest combination.

Also if you're going to use Soul's Attendant, you should also use Soul Warden. That can get out of hand pretty quickly. Notice how Serra Ascendant, Soul's Attendant, Soul Warden, and Martyr of sands all cost just one white mana? That's a huge advantage to getting an early start on your life gain. It also allows you to use Proclamation of Rebirth. http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewCard.aspx?CardName=Proclamation%20of%20Rebirth&Edition=DIS

All of your enchantments are so expensive that by the time you enough mana to cast them, you should already be winning. I'd cut them for some white control. (Wrath of God, Swords to Plowshares, Path to Exile)

I hope I was helpful, and best of luck to you. :)
