General Description I have seen several bant spirit decks however, I wanted to make one myself. I would love suggestions for this deck. The deck works by using spell queller and other spirits like mausoleum wanderer to counter spells and protect our board until we can get the gearhulk out and make our creatures massive. We use cards like essence flux to bounce our creatures and trigger the gearhulk's ability several times. This deck has good synergy due to the large amount of spirits.

Planeswalkers We use Gideon and Avacyn as finishers, if we can keep them on the board we have a much higher chance of winning the game. Tamiyo will be used to draw cards and lock the opponents board down if need be. We don't really need to ultimate her for her to be effective however, the card draw and emblem could be useful against control decks.

Creatures We use a large amount of flash creatures such as Avacyn, spell queller, rattlechains and nebelgast herald, these creatures will be used to control the opponents board and prevent removal. Creatures like selfless spirit and mausoleum wanderer will be early game hitters that can be used to counter/prevent removal. The creature we really want on the board is Verdurous gearhulk, he distributes 4 +1/+1 counters across any creatures on our board and will make our flyers huge. Essence Flux + Verdurous Gearhulk is a great combo due to massive amount of +1/+1 counters we can distribute across our board.

Win Conditions We have several different ways to win games with this deck, whether it be through heavy removal, an overwhelming amount of flyers, getting Avacyn to flip or by making our creatures massive with the gearhulk we should be able to win most match-ups.

Sideboard My sideboard has a lot of removal due to my local meta, I believe it needs some work but I will tinker with it as I continue to play this deck.
