The cleric sub-theme idea wasn't really working out. The problem with Shaman en-Kor and Daru Spiritualist is that you're never happy to draw just one of them. It seems that you'd have to go full cleric tribal to really abuse that combo. I'm going to switch this deck to be more about sacrificing for value, and then punishing opponents for the resultant lifegain.

I need to focus on 4 categories:
Lifegain
Weaponizing Lifegain
Sacrificing For Value
Recursion

Combo pairs:

Karmic Guide + Reveillark

Karmic Guide + Fiend Hunter

Fiend Hunter + Sun Titan

Sun Titan + Gift of Immortality

Ashen Rider + Gift of Immortality - exile two permanents a turn on each player's turn
