Ward 
(Whenever this creature becomes the target of a spell or ability an opponent controls, counter it unless that player pays .)
Whenever you gain life, put a +1/+1 counter on this creature.
Battlefield medicine is as much about timing as it is healing. A perfect remedy is worthless if it comes too late.

Rulings (2)
- If more than one creature you control with lifelink deals combat damage at the same time, the last ability will trigger once for each of those creatures.
- If Unflinching Hortimancer is dealt lethal damage at the same time that you gain life, it won't receive a counter from its ability in time to save it.
