I'm making a deck based around {Blood Baron of Vizkopa}, and i need spells and creatures to gain the needed life while dealing damage.
I have heroes reunion, debt to the deathless, and centaur healer already.
I have a life/token {G}{W} deck. I like {Healer of the Pride} and {Bountiful Harvest} and even {Swift Justice}. {Chalice of Life} looks good for {Blood Baron of Vizkopa} decks.

Added chalice for sure, contemplating the rest as to what to take out in place of.
I like {Vizkopa Guildmage} with the baron. Speeds up his max ability really nicely.
{Tithe Drinker}. Lifelink for 2 if you can attack or need to chump block, extortion engine even if sitting on the sideline to gain you life that way. {Gift of Orzhova} can also turn one of your other earlier drops (like a centaur healer) into an evasive, life linking beat-machine.
Is this supposed to be Standard?
Start with {Crypt Ghast} to help accelerate your mana, and meanwhile using extort when possible. A fat creature ({Desecration Demon} for example) with {Dying Wish} attached can really swing some life totals when killed. Also use {Essence Harvest} as an earlier debtless.if you need to.
You could also use the enchantment {Exquisite Blood} to speed things up a tad.
{Rhox Faithmender} if you want, it works wonders with extort and even small LL guys like {Vampire Nighthawk}. Also helps set off the
{Chalice of Life} much quicker.
I think {Rhox Faithmender} is a must! And {Tithe Drinker}, glad you mentioned her Gorzo! I love {Child of Night}. They just gave her white and said "Here's a little more power" XD
Junk Life dude. {Thragtusk}, {Centaur Healer}, {Vampire Nighthawk}, and pretty much everything already mentioned. You can even run {Sorin, Lord of Innistrad}. He's so hard to deal with in the right decks, and he's mean. And the new almost-{Armadillo Cloak}! Lemme check the name.
EDIT: {Unflinching Courage}! Can you imagine {Thragtusk} with that thing? Good gravy dude... This deck sounds awesome!
Use rhox faithmender with extort on several creatures
This thread is really making me want to build a junk life gain EDH deck...

What about {Sanguine Bond}?
Making a standard deck, i could use exquisite blood but it seems like there are better things to add.

We're forgetting the cheapest life card that helps your deck as well {Elixir of Immortality}

No we're not that's already in ;)
The new archangel of thune is pretty awesome with extort too
{Ajani, Caller of the Pride}? Always nice to have him around
Well, {Alive // Well} does work great as a life gainer...
