Rulings
If you gain life during a turn before Vanguard Seraph is on the battlefield, its last ability won't trigger that turn even if you gain life again later in the turn.
Vanguard Seraph's last ability triggers just once for your first life-gaining event on each turn, no matter how much life you gain.
