This is a Sunforger Pack themed Voltron deck with a lockdown/control subtheme.

For the most part, you play the deck by ramping, slowing down your opponents, and preventing things that would put you in a worse off place. When you can, play Gisela, but only if you can protect her.
Your opponents will hurt each other a lot with Gisela's double damage effect, then you can go in for the kill.

Noteworthy combos and cards;

Silent Arbiter + Iroas, God of Victory makes Gisela, Blade of Goldnight unblockable. Use Duelist's Heritage to give her double strike -- thats 20 commander damage in 1 turn. There are various anthem effects to make that strike lethal, and other ways to give her double strike. Boros Charm, Sunhome, Fortress of the Legion, Silverblade Paladin.

Noteworthy Combo: Have Repercussion in and Gisela, Blade of Goldnight on the battlefield. In combat, deal damage to a creature by attacking, blocking or with Comeuppance or Deflecting Palm. Before moving to the damage phase, cast Arcbond on a creature that has received damage. Those creatures will take X2 damage because of Gisella, and repercussion will deal x4 damage to their controllers, but only 1/4th to you. If Purity is out, you will gain that much in life, instead.

Isochron Scepter on either charm, or Rebuff the Wicked

Sunforger + any of the prevent damage, reflect damage instants for some nice lockdown/fog effects.

Magus of the Tabernacle for dealing with token decks. Make sure you have the mana available for this.

Strategy: As Gisela is a target, play diplomatically. Don't play Gisela if you can't protect her.
