This is my general EDH build for Galea, Kindler of Hope. The deck is mainly about artifacts and auras you can caste off the top to equip to some creatures and also somewhat of a card draw engine. This is not a cedh build.

Mainly I am trying to build up my commander and protect it and smash with it.
There are several cards played for small card draw engines because of the casting of the enchantment arua's off the top of my deck. I use my two main search cards to get the following. Sigarda's aid so I can cast of the top of my deck at flash speed and free equip. (Example colossus hammer for free equip) Armored Skyhunter Because if protected this for me has almost always hit at least 1 item to equip each attack. Another fun trick is Verndant embrace and make a bunch of 1/1 green saplings. Then have Tanazir Quandrix equipped with any of the big stupid items listed below to turn all the 1/1 tokens into 10/10 or bigger creatures.

I do have some more side board cards that can be used for a turn 2 kill. I change out questing beast for glistener elf. So Turn 1 G-Elf, Turn 2 Sigarda'aid and hammer. Swing at dude with no blockers and 11 infect to kill them. Or you could be one turn slower and play blighted agent turn 2. Turn 3 do sigarda's aid, hammer, and masterwork of ingenuity copying hammer. This way you can kill two people with infect by turn 3. I am sure there is some way to ramp it faster I just don't have the cards.

I hope the tricks were helpful and if anyone has any constructive feedback to help me make it a better deck I appreciate it :).
