Main idea of the deck is to get Gisela, Blade of Goldnight and Assault Suit on the battlefield and let her move around the table, bashing everybody's face (except yours).

There is a few cards I'm unsure of, but wanted to try them to see how they will perform --- - Harsh Mentor : Does not seem like it will do a lot, but if Gisela is on the battlefield, it deals 4 damage instead. Artifacts with activated abilities are quite popular in commander, so I'm curious to see.

• Anger : I know how good this card is, but I feel like it might be better in a deck with more creatures.

• Rampaging Ferocidon : Like Harsh Mentor , I feel like the damage is inconsequential. I also fear that stopping myself from gaining life could be a problem.

• Duelist's Heritage : If Gisela has Shroud, it won't be a useful, but I like being able to screw combat. Use this a political too.

I'm quite satisfied with the amount of ramp/fixing I have. Maybe there is even too much of it. I fear for card draw. I got Mask of Memory , Sram, Senior Edificer and Puresteel Paladin (and Hedron Archive to some extent). One or two wheel effects might not be a wrong idea, or maybe just Outpost Siege .

Comment and suggestions are welcome. If you like the deck, feel free to upvote :)
