Bringing the Pain from the Life Gain

It's throwing Karlov of the Ghost Council out there turn two and getting as many counters on him as possible for his exile ability or save them for a swing to kill. I'm trying to find a mid to early game finish but it's got a few things for late game too. This deck is pretty straight forward and simple when it comes down to it.

I'm aiming for mid to high ranked games with this deck.

Early Game

Commander turn two, get some protection, and throw some ramp in there for the future you!

Mid Game

Life gain, swing, then wipe unless they have too many blockers

Late Game

More life gain, more card draw, more swinging.

It's been missing consistent life gain triggers for the commander to utilize. Tell me what you think should get tossed in and I'll try to get back to you as soon as I can,
