The plan here is to buy some time until Aetherflux Reservoir comes into play by buy pumping Deeproot Champion by spamming draw spells and gaining life where you can (an early game 5/5 creature is a great distraction), or just getting some blockers into play and bounce their attackers with Unsummon or Galestrike. Once you get Aetherflux Reservoir into play you can continue to cast spells and gain more life until you can slam your opponent in the face with 50 damage from Aetherflux Reservoir.

I didn't put a lot of counters in here but you do have access to Negate and Nimble Obstructionist which should give you a little help in hand when it comes time to use the big finisher and not have it countered leaving you with only 1 life left. That would suck, so try and keep a negate in hand or hope your opponent is going to tapout before you go in for the kill.
