Ruhan, what can I say about a blind giant that attacks anything that gets in his way? Great fun!

I've played a number of decks through the years, but this is the one that I never seem to take apart completely. I add new cards as they catch my eye, and build other decks and often play those more, but this one, I never walk away from.

It's a well-rounded deck for the most part that focuses on a locking-down (tapping) their creature theme while pummeling with beats. The lockdown is aided by the planeswalkers Tamiyo and Ajani, and bolstered with cards like Frost Titan, Urabrask, Lavinia, Aurelia's Fury, Blustersquall (I love Blustersquall), Azorius Guildmage, Sunblast Angel, the Hookmaster, and even the Skyline Cascade.

The beats are then enabled by the equipment package featuring the planeswalker Nahiri, Stoneforge Mystic, her big brother the Stonehewer, and Kazuul's illegitimate cousin. There's a couple of tutors (Enlightened and Steelshaper) along with equipment that either lends to beats and attaching quickly, or aiding in getting an unblocked commander or giant through any creatures our lockdown strategy may have missed.

Venser is there to blink a number of creatures back and forth when needed.

As I said, I believe it's a well-rounded deck. My only complaint with it and the thing I need to address as soon as I can stop building other decks (I have an addiction) is to speed up the mana package by adding a couple of fetch lands and analyzing whether there are too many come into play tapped mana sources.

Appreciate you taking the time to look it over and all comments are welcome.
