On the topic, you could run Blim, Comedic Genius (though he needs decent support such as liches).

Akroan Horse?

There are also at least a few auras that buff creatures (yours or opponents), don't have goad but do have 'this creature can't attack you' clause.

I did it! Won with Blim, Comedic Genius yesterday and with Angus Mackenzie today. Wins with 53 decks since May 3rd!! And won this one as a kind of perfect game.

Three player pod. I have tweaked Angus recently, trying to see if we could get him over this hump, and the changes seem to have benefitted the deck. So, I played Machine God's Effigy as a copy of John's Eidolon of Blossoms. When I cast Machine God's Effigy, I was planning to copy Ryland's commander, Saruman, the White Hand. However, thinking twice, I figured card draw would serve me better than an expendable Orc Army. I drew a card each as I cast Sphere of Safety, Enigmatic Incarnation and Runed Halo, naming Fiery Inscription. I didn't sacrifice anything with Enigmatic Incarnation until I had a game winning plan. I gained a turn with Chronomantic Escape and then, on the next turn, cast Expel the Interlopers. Sacrificed Runed Halo with Enigmatic Incarnation and put out Moon-Blessed Cleric to seek out Enchanted Evening, since I had Calming Verse in hand. I untapped with 16 life and nine lands, just enough to tap out and cast Enchanted Evening and Calming Verse to effectively win the game, destroying all of my opponents' permanents, with them at 18 and 11 life. They would not have come back. I even looked and would've drawn an Aura Thief to stymie any comeback attempts.

Finally!!! Lost one, won one yesterday evening! Let's talk about the win. I attacked turn 4 with Blim, Comedic Genius, gifting Francois, on Gyrus, Waker of Corpses, an Oni Possession. Blim, Comedic Genius never attacked again, even though I cast him for 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 mana. Later in the game, I cast a Sorcerous Spyglass and found an infinite combo in Aubrey's large grip... Exquisite Blood and Enduring Tenacity. Seeing that, I decided not to name Francois' Chainsaw nor his Lightning Greaves. Instead, I named Blighted Fen, which never seemed to matter.

Francois used Gyrus, Waker of Corpses to kill Aubrey, sending exactly enough to get 5 damage through, past his only creature, Athreos, God of Passage. I had a Tormod's Crypt out but never used it.

On my penultimate turn, at 6 life, I cast a Nefarious Lich and a Chain Reaction, taking out Tendershoot Dryad and The Gitrog, Ravenous Ride. I had about 9 cards in the yard, including AEther Flash, which had killed a Blood Artist and did a lot of work this game. A Demonic Collusion had found me a Blasphemous Act, which eventually took out Aubrey's Valgavoth, Terror Eater and several other blockers to allow Francois' kill shot on him. Auren was able to kill Francois. Auren passed turn to me while he was tapped out at 1 life with 5 tapped food, Night of the Sweets' Revenge in his graveyard, and his commander, Ygra, Eater of All making all creatures into delicious morsels. I made the ultimate top deck: Greed's Gambit. This allowed me to draw 9 cards with Nefarious Lich out. Among those nine was a Dark Petition which found me an Earthquake for the win. Finally!! Earthquake for 3 finally was enough to win the game.

Oct 11 Blim's Blumpkins lost again Evan on Sarevok, Deathbringer / Clan Crafter) exiled Blim, Comedic Genius with an instant in my main phase after I played Nefarious Lich with Deadly Rollick... I had one card, Night's Whisper, in the graveyard. As the old saying goes, live by the Nefarious Lich, die by the Nefarious Lich. Rob ended me with his Hand of the Praetors

"Delusions of Greed": Solid for Blim, Comedic Genius. Aside from all the obvious points you could make, the bats are also pretty good backup gifts.

Hiiii!!

Just have a question that i do not find the answer along the internet.

The card Whip of Erebos says: "Exile it at the beginning of the next end step. If it would leave the battlefield, exile it instead of putting it anywhere else". Does this effect applies only If I control the creature or if anyone controls it at the end step?

If it doesn't trigger I can Donate a lot of staff with Blim, Comedic Genius hahahah

The main question is regarding whether or not a creature token created under an opponent's control by me (in this instance by my Hunted Dragon) will count as being owned by me or them...? I'm building a Kardur, Doomscourge deck that will be creating a lot of token creatures under my opponents' control, so Blim, Comedic Genius could possibly have a lot of synergy with it.

TIA
