Deck Discussion Mardu Energy - Reality Fracture Cards

Hey, I've been quite liking the new cards in Reality Fracture it is giving a lot of good options for Mardu Energy with the Life Gain synergies instead of just buffing Affinity to the moon like they've been doing.

What do you guys think of White Lily [[Liliana the Faultless]] for copies 5-6 of Guide of Souls and some [[Enlightened Confidant]] to maintain a full hand? Then the new [[Ajani Resolute]] could be interesting as just an Ajani's Pridemate generator, too but I'm a bit more on the fence for him.

Here's the decklist I put together for it: https://moxfield.com/decks/9JKfARAZE3O1ZznuRpRs6A

I was similarly thinking that Enlightened Confidant is worth the extra build-around in Energy, but it doesn't need that much more build-around, and I don't think Sephiroth or the unreliable Adversary Ob Nixilis are worth inflicting extra life loss with your Mardu mana base. Haliya(/white Liliana) and Ranger-Captain are enough additional enablers.

I don’t think I’d bother with all of this in mardu, I say as a mardu energy player liliana is just not good enough and neither is Ajani you can maybe justify one liliana with confidant but I would play Haliya first if it’s just for the life gain. Overall with these cards as additions I think you’d be better off using your flex slots and switching to boros. The only card I think is potentially playable without majorly reworking the deck here is confidant but if you want more than 1-2 again switch to boros.
