Looking at some old Life.dec lists, I think the way to go is to lean into that plan, but with some newer additions like Collected Company and Vito. Maybe go Abzan to add some discard, you're really just trying to buy a turn or two to go off, and you've got the "bad beatdown" backup plan. Eladamri's Call, Living Wish, CoCo, Worldly Tutor, Crop Rotation, KotR, etc, you're going to be able to find your stuff, and Vito provides an instant win. I mean, even if you just go off without the full setup, you've bought yourself time to do it again with Vito in play for the win.
I wonder if you could set up Vito in some kind of Drain Stompy.
You could use token producers (Bitterblosson, maybe Ophiomancer/Dreadhorde Invasion) alongside Ayara, First of Locthwain for repeatable drain/card draw. Vito should also play nice with copies of Whip of Erebos since it grants lifegain. Plague Engineer and Murderous Rider can act as removal. Gary is the big payoff spell (could use the enchantment for the infinite combo as well). Fiend Artisan both feeds devotion and is a repeatable "Black" Sun's Zenith with the token producers. Throw in some disruption and you might have a deck.
What is Vito?
LOL. Illusions of Grandeur stompy.

They added a Target clause to the card draw because of course they did. Why should players be able to punish blue mages casting cryptic to bounce/cycle
I think the new Radha is actually the most relevant.
1GR, 3/3, future sight for lands, bunch of other text.
As long as it's not an Elk, that's a lot of stuff going on for any kind of lands type deck. And if it's still relevant, it doesn't stop you from running the Jegantha in the sideboard either.
Apparently, Radha's CC and stats reflect how "chunky" she currently is:
Why?
It would be great if you guys could get through a set preview without turning it into a wet T-shirt contest for the female MtG characters.

Sanctum of Stone Fangs + Hoden of Infinite Rage can create a pretty quick clock? Including Sanctum of Tranquil light you might have a fun deck
