This is a 1v1 build, adhering to the French EDH banned list.

The general idea is to get Geist out fast and control the board from there while hitting for 6+ damage every turn. There is an abundance of counters and boomerang spells. If Geist gets shut down there are a few sword-holders in the deck to back him up.

There's a few things I would like to add but don't have (like, Jace, the Mind Sculptor)
