This Trostani, Selesnya's Voice deck is one that I've been working on for a few years now. As you can see, it's based loosely on the Soul Sisters archetype, making use of cards like Soul Warden, Soul's Attendant, Essence Warden, and Auriok Champion to gain small amounts of incremental lifegain throughout the game and flooding the board with tokens to outlast and trample my opponents.
Of course, Trostani itself is an honorary Soul Sister that I get to keep in the Command Zone.
I cannot really stress enough how casual of a deck this is. Lifegain is not a good strategy in EDH, but it's something I enjoy. This is a deck that is great if it never gets disrupted at all, but it creates a very target-rich environment for my opponents. There are several pretty obvious cards that aren't in the deck (Craterhoof Behemoth, Aetherflux Reservoir, or Aura Shards immediately come to mind) that I have sort of chosen to stay away from, as they don't really gel with what I'm trying to do here, just to get out ahead of those suggestions.
I love Trostani, and I love Selesnya as a guild, and I love playing this deck while I sit at a table with good friends and have a few cold ones.

That's the deck. It ain't perfect, but I love it, and I'm always looking for good suggestions that will fit with the way the deck wants to play.
I'll come back and probably add more to this later, but for now that's where the deck is at.
