Personally, I'm not a huge fan of group hug cards, with few exceptions, so I would say Noble Benefactor has to go. It feels too risky playing against other decks and handing them a free card from their own deck to combo you with or for them to drop a Worldspine Wurm on the field that they were ramping for etc.
Consider Diabolic Intent as a replacement for him.
Definitely throw in Lord of the Accursed ; That card looks like a must have.
As to what to replace with him: I can see where it is useful and it might even take out a commander if you're lucky, however I would consider replacing Skinrender . I don't know how valuable the -3/-3 is to you in a multiplayer game other than the aforementioned taking out a commander like Rashmi, Eternities Crafter or etc. Just something to consider; Your deck looks so solid it's really hard to take out stuff. xD

Thanks for the suggestions. I was eyeing Skinrender as well. It would be good against indestructible stuff, but would require multiple ETBs to take something out. I could probably part with Noble Benefactor as well, and may not need another tutor.
That should do it! I just need to cram in the last artifact for more combo goodness.

It's always good to see a fellow Gisa and Geralf player; they're a pretty underrated commander imo. You've got a lot of combo pieces and a lot of bombs, but you could use some more tempo/acceleration and maybe another land or two. Necromancer's Stockpile gives tokens and card advantage in one package. Undead Augur and/or Distant Melody can yield big payoffs with your token strategy. You could also use Sedraxis Alchemist + Rooftop Storm + sac-oulet, instead of Cyclonic Rift. Does the same thing but most people never see it coming and the alchemist is a lot cheaper.
Also, I love the addition of Soulquake and now I have to find a way to fit that into my Gisa and Geralf.

Thanks, SleeplessPr1nce! I like those suggestions, especially Sedraxis Alchemist for Cyc Rift. I'd really rather take that out anyway. Undead Augur is sweet, too. Thanks for the vote!

Thanks, Esperkyde! I'm glad you like it. I'm actually trying to find room for a few cards: Altar of Dementia , Bontu's Monument , and possibly Lord of the Accursed . Any suggestions? And thanks for the upvote!
