Mono White soldier Commander deck, focusing on Lifegain and +1/+1 counters. It can go off VERY HARD with some luck.

Infinite Lifegain Combo: Blasting Station + Darien, King of Kjeldor + Soul's Attendant, Soul Warden OR Daxos, Blessed by the Sun, and it's even better with Anointed Procession, then it makes infinite 1/1 Soldier tokens as well.

It's not the most competitive deck. Currently it "lacks" some mana acceleration, removal/interaction spells and more effective card draw, to level up and be more competitive.
