I'd probably go with Life on this list. Dwellers will be useful to thin down big units (and the threat of Dwellers can mean he lets other spells through), flesh to Stone and regeneration should help keep things alive, and the healing attribute will be great for your monsters. High would also be pretty good, but I'd definitely add the Book of Hoeth and fencers blades to your archmage in that case, so you can one dice spells and make your mage hard to kill. Beasts could be pretty good too.

I'd also consider Banner of the World Dragon on the White Lions. Miscast protection, near invulnerability to magic attacks, and stubborn for the dragon, it will make the list a lot more competitive overall.

Thanks for the advice.
Due to the tournaments comp pack (it's a hard/soft choice comp) i can't take a level 4 with the banner of the world dragon.
Life seems like a great choice i'm just worried about chaff units getting in my way, but it will be hard to get the extra points for books of hoeth or fencer blade life is a good wat to protect the mage.
