Vulshok Battlegear

Artifact — Equipment

Equipped creature gets +3/+3.

Equip (: Attach this to target creature you control. Equip only as a sorcery. This enters the battlefield unattached and stays on the battlefield if the creature this card is attached to leaves the battlefield.)

To the more general question of how multiple cost reduction effects on the same spell/ability interact with each other, you can choose. When you're determining the total cost to cast a spell or activate an ability, first you start with the normal cost, then apply any alternative costs you're using that would replace the normal cost, then apply any relevant additional costs and cost increasers in any order, then apply any relevant cost reductions in any order, then finally apply anything that sets the cost to a particular value (right now, that's just Trinisphere).

For example, if you had Vulshok Battlegear, you could make the Equip ability cost either or to target the Aspirant depending on which order you decided to apply the cost reduction effects from Zirda or the Aspirant.

Vicious Shadows actually doesn't work (nor does Stalking Vengeance, and for the same reason), because when a creature (or in this instance a token) doesn't die when it's exiled. I would suggest Warstorm Surge instead. Which I just noticed was in the maybeboard. Speaking of cards in the maybeboard, Swiftfoot Boots is probably better than Lightning Greaves here because shroud makes Valduk untargetable for equip costs. This would normally not be a problem; just equip it to a different creature for 0 mana. However with a semi-creatureless brew like this you'd have to do all your equipping on the postcombat main phase.

I might suggest some of the human-based equipment from OG Innistrad; Avacyn's Collar, Bladed Bracers, Butcher's Cleaver, Heirloom Blade could be really cool (and you could run a human or two for good measure), Sharpened Pitchfork is nice, though first strike is kinda useless, Silver-Inlaid Dagger is AWESOME, and Slayer's Plate may get some work done.

Some generally good equipments include Champion's Helm for hexproof, Chitinous Cloak to force opponents to make tough blocker choices, honestly General's Kabuto may be worth is as the ultimate protection card, you could consider Kitesail for evasion, Konda's Banner would be great and pump your tokens (and yes it would give Valduk +2/+2), Kusari-Gama would be a serious 'don't block me or I fuck you' effect, Ogre's Cleaver is honestly insane, Pariah's Shield, though costly, more or less makes you untouchable, Pennon Blade is worth the cost, the classic Short Sword, Sigiled Sword of Valeron is dece, Skullclamp is OH MY GOD, Strata Scythe is equally insane, the swords are famously insanely powerful, Trusty Machete is okay, Vorrac Battlehorns is an easy way to win fast, and Vulshok Battlegear and Vulshok Morningstar are decent.

And yes, I did slog through every equipment in Magic history to find those.

Props to Heliogabale for some good ideas on cuts. I might add No-Dachi, seems a little overcosted (also it's worth noting Mask of Avacyn has the same mana specs for an arguably better effect), Skeleton Key is not going to do anything for very long, Valduk is probably going to be too big too fast to make use of first strike (@ Sparring Collar), Browbeat is 5 damage to an opponent for 3 mana. Realistically no one is going to let you draw 3 cards.

Sorry, this comment was a looong one.

Not a huge fan of Soul Tithe and would be my first cut. As for the other two it gets a bit trickier but I personally would cut, Guardian of the Gateless (think you will have enough blockers that they won't want to attack into you anyway) and Godsend: the block trigger isn't often as relavent, espicialy if you are attacking with a big creature and since no damage is dealt, lifelink doesn't work. I've seen the "can't cast" ability be relevant in edh and it often ends up just being a slightly better Vulshok Battlegear. One thing it does have going for it is that it can be tutored up with thalia's lancers but i don't know how often you would want to do that.

You have this deck listed as a standard deck, but you have an illegal card in Vulshok Battlegear. Not sure if you noticed that or not

Vulshok Battlegear and Slayer's Plate are strictly better than Greatsword at the very least.
