Decided I want a full kit of the five two-color protection "Swords of." Having multiple ways to tutor for equipment in the deck means I can fetch something that protects Gisela or a set-up creature from an opponent's cards that are giving me particular trouble. Bonus: it adds two more equipments that can be returned to play with Sun Titan should they get blown up.

  • Argentum Armor for Sword of Feast and Famine
  • Batterskull for Sword of Body and Mind
  • Masterwork of Ingenuity for Sword of Light and Shadow

I also found cuts for Dowsing Dagger and Aurelia, Exemplar of Justice, which I've been meaning to fit in for a while:

  • Balefire Dragon for Dowsing Dagger
  • Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobyte for Aurelia, Exemplar of Justice

Also, a basic for Forge of Heroes was an easy cut just to give Gisela that extra little damage boost:

  • Plains for Fore of Heroes

Finally, I added Smothering Tithe as a sideboard card. It's another rare source of ramp in White and can get out of control, but more so in multiplayer games. It also helps me get Metalcraft with Puresteel Paladin or Jor Kadeen very quickly. However, I struggled to find a cut for it. I considered swapping Burnished Hart for it, but it's better to have a three-mana ramp spell when you're land screwed than a four-mana spell, and Burnished Hart has the added value of being fetchable with Sun Titan. So for now, I'll run Burnished Hart in one-on-one games and Smothering Tithe in multiplayer games.
