This deck idea came from me and my brother thinking about a populate deck - originally with rhox faithmender, cackling counterpart and trostani as a lifegain combo that wouldn't care how much damage was being dealt the lifegain would overcompensate - so we knew we needed bant and having all the mana base for a previous bant deck made this one seem like a good idea to build. While that did work, it only worked when I could get all three parts of the combo onto the table. The deck evolved, it gained other lifegain creatures, less of the populate mechanic and more token producers. The most recent change is the addition of seance, as it is an interesting way to make use of the graveyard in a longer game, with the downside that one of the remaining populate cards must be there in order to keep a new version of the token on the field. the maybeboard is consistent of cards that have been in the deck at one point or another, but may yet come back. any other suggestions that would improve the deck would be greatly appreciated.

Threw in Biovisionary as a two of instead of Centaur Healer. He accomplishes much the same things except he doesn't get the life. Toughness is the same, so can withstand the same amount of damage, a little less power, but we weren't worried about that much. I only put in two because of how many populate mechanics there are in the deck. with just one of him getting to 4 won't be hard, even if they destroy him, a Seance can start it all over again. oh yeah, and he adds another win condition.
