Which would be better: A double of the Champion of Lambholt, or a Stonecloaker?

I have decided to replace my Phytotitan with a Stuffy Doll.

I'm leaning towards the Profane Memento.

Considering everything else in my deck, which is better for gaining life: Staff of the Sun Magus or Profane Memento? Or does it depend?

In the deck, there are only 11 cards that contribute to lifegain (Giving lifelink or direct life gain). That's a little under one-sixth of the deck.
Bow of Nylea x1
Path of Bravery x1
Profane Memento x1
Abzan Battle Priest x1
Loxodon Hierarch x1
Herald of the pantheon x2
Suture Priest x2
Primeval Bounty x1
Felidar Sovereign x1

My 3 Ajani's Pridemate rely on lifegain to become strong. The Felidar Sovereign itself also requires 40+ life to win. So is it still accurate to call the deck a lifegain deck? Does it need more? I think it still is, even though the primary strategy is to go for 1/1 counters.

Also, according to the sample hand tool, even if I don't get a good hand, it becomes good by the second draw about 75% of the time. Because I can't usually do anything on the first turn anyway.

I supposed part of that is that I don't know when and when not to mulligan. Any tips for knowing when and when not to?

I used the sample hand tool again... I'm only getting good hands about 50% of the time. (I mean at least one 2-drop creature and 2 lands) Is that normal for a deck?

Control decks usually have massive creatures for the late game, aggro decks usually have tiny creatures that are mana-cost effective. I'm kinda in between. I have cards like Fleecemane Lion that are quite cost effective, but I have some late game cards like Kalonian Hydra and Felidar Sovereign for high casting costs. That's why I think I have  a midrange. But does it really look like an aggro? Not that I hate aggro. I played a green-red aggro before.

Mid-range decks are generally well-rounded decks, compared to aggro or control, right? This deck is supposed to be a midrange deck. Does it look like one? Earlier some people thought it was an aggro.

so like Altar of the Brood could be good again control? It forces discarding cards. and with Profane memento I gain life if they discarded a creature.

Any last revisions to the deck? The idea is that each card should be strong on its own, and at the same time have a nice combo pair with at least 2 or 3 other cards.

Also, I have always had a serious problem with control decks. I could beat any other type, but when it comes to control decks, how do I beat them. I don't want to use cards like Blue Hate cards. I don't like hate cards. I had a RG deck and one of my friends had a pure mono-white green hating deck. After a while, I didn't like playing with that person. So I don't like color hate cards. I mean strategically, how do I beat control?

My mana curve doesn't quite look like a hand anymore, but oh well.

How does forum karma work? And how does the ranking thing work?
