Rafiq of the Many Goodstuff!

This is my Rafiq/Bant Goodstuff EDH deck. I've tuned the deck for multiplayer games. The objective of the deck is to pump Rafiq up with auras and swords and do 21 points of commander damage. If Rafiq gets focused down then put the auras or equipment on one of the other big threats in the deck and go to town.

I have played many games with this build and am quite happy with it. Below the deck is separated by card functions. Feel free to play test it, and upvote if you like it. Thanks!

Disruption & Counterspells (4)

• Cyclonic Rift cast it for the overload cost to deal with pesky un-targetables, can potentially win games

The Big Threats (5)

1. Geist of Saint Traft He's hexproof. He can put 6 power and toughness on the table for . With a mana dork he can come on turn 2 and with Rafiq he's doing 10 damage a turn. Throw Steel of the Godhead or some equipment on him and let the insanity begin.
2. Rafiq of the Many Your commander! Stack him with auras and swords. Make him unblockable with Venser or Thassa and try to get 21 or more commander damage in one or two attacks. Win!
3. Sigarda, Host of Herons She's a 5/5 for . She's hexproof and she flies. She makes it impossible for your opponents to make you sac permanents. Throw Shield of the Oversoul on her or other auras and swords and smash people's faces in.
4. Shalai, Voice of Plenty This slot used to belong to Oversoul of Dusk, but I realized after many games I just never cast her when she was in my hand so she's out and Shalai is in. Shalai brings two great abilities. She's a blanket for you, your walkers, and your creatures, and she can pump up your army with +1/+1 counters. Be ready to protect her when she resolves, and smash with your hexproof/exalted big guns.
5. Avacyn, Angel of Hope She's indestructible. She's an 8/8 for CMC. She flies and has vigilance. Throw Rancor, or some equipment on her and start to beat people down!
