LifeBurst.

Description of deck by it's author (quoted):
This deck plays out by dropping some early mana fixers in order to get more colors for Sunburst (Viridian Acolyte, Sylvok Explorer, Darksteel Ingot, Pentad Prism) and maybe a Sun Droplet to help stave off the beats for a turn or two before the heavy hitters start to arrive. This deck starts turning the game around when it becomes time to cast cards like Etched Oracle, Clearwater Goblet, and Infused Arrows…oh, let's not forget Ageless Entity…he gets out of hand rather quickly.

This deck is a bit clunky and it might take a little while to get control of things, but that is why all that life gain is in there. Don't worry; you have all the time in the world. Kill those creatures one at a time - block and draw cards with Etched Oracle – you aren't going anywhere. No one is going to Shrapnel Blast you out with a Clearwater Goblet going.

Sometimes this deck can just come out really fast due to Pentad Prism. It has the ability to cast a turn 3 Ageless Entity, Etched Oracle, or a fast Clearwater Goblet to start taking the life lead early. If this happens, you opponent will either have to deal with your monsters or pack it in.

I would worry a little bit if I was trying to play this deck against a really fast deck like Affinity or maybe Goblins. It is more of a casual deck design even though it could probably beat those decks sometimes. I would say stick to this build for enjoyment factors. If you want to get ahead with your rating while using this deck, then you will definitely need to add money to it.
