Skullclamp isn't great in this deck. I run only three creatures that die to 'Clamp on the spot, all of which are better left on the field. I run only a few cards that generate X/1s, most of which also have more relevant abilities to use instead. The +1/-1 pump is also very poor for Eight-and-a-Half-Tails to make use of.

So uhhh, yeah, Godsend , it's a thing, you should consider putting it in your deck.
Also will be throwing it in my Brimaz deck asap.

I'm absolutely going to add Godsend . Been so long since Equipment this good was printed. I'll probably drop Quietus Spike for it.

Just remember NensouHiebara. Protection from a colored enchantment will cause it to de-equip.

He's well aware of the rules, him and I had a discussion about it when it was spoiled.

Nemesis Mask isn't that great. Can't hit for Commander Damage if I'm forcing creatures to block 8.5. Using it to force blockers away from 8.5 is redundant, since 8.5 can make himself unblockable.
Sword of Vengeance has been in and out a few times. It gets cut often because of it's similarities with Helm of Kaldra . It'll probably find it's way back in at some point.

Nice deck trying to build it myself with some miner difference

Rout might be a better option over Wrath of God. The ability to optionally use it at instant speed is worth the 1 extra mana and makes up for your recent cut of Fated Retribution . Cool deck.

I'm going to stick with Wrath of God . This deck frequently taps out most of its mana every turn, so the instant-speed mode of Rout would rarely be used, if at all. I also prefer sweepers that cost more than 4 mana to hit multiple permanent types.

Okay, that's cool. I just really wanted to chime in on what I think is a really neat deck.

@MisthollowGriffin Are you unfamiliar with EDH? He can only use the colors of his general.

Any particular reason why no Taj-Nar Swordsmith ?
Other that than, looks good.

Taj-Nar Swordsmith is inefficient. The cost needed to tutor up anything worthwhile and equip the same turn is way too high.

I have something similar to this, I am using Moat and Humility shuts down everything creature based. Then use Orim's Chant or Silence with Isochron Scepter to shut down most spells. And with the ulitmate ability from Elspeth, Knight-Errant this will just seal the deal mostly. I do of a Crucible of Worlds that I like to use in tandem with Strip Mine and Flagstones of Trokair combo with Zuran Orb which also helps Land Tax

Yawgmoth73: How is that similar to a voltron equipment deck? That just sounds like a control deck.

Why Godsend . I see the point of exiling creatures because whoever you equip it too is probably really big and has to be blocked. My problem with it is that it is white, unless it still stays on when you give a creature pro-white? Either way, i think that you might want to consider Mana Vault . It wouldn't be for a continuous mana stream, but just for that turn 1 sword of x/y and attacking with foxy turn 3 with it.

This is exactly what Im looking for in my deck with Kemba, I obviously can't give you any suggestions on how to build but you seem to be spending the right amount of money to give me a couple worth while suggestions. If you have the time I would greatly appreciate any ideas you might have in regards to my deck.

Godsend falling off if the equipped creature has pro-White doesn't concern me. Devotion, good P/T boost, and combat advantage makes it worthwhile.
Mana Vault was in this deck before when I first built it. I don't have any real interest in using it again. Keeping it untapped is a hassle, especially when White mana or utility lands are being used up. I don't use Eight-and-a-Half-Tails in the early game. I wait until I have the mana to back him up.
