Gabriel Angelfire RAMPAGE

Commander / EDH*

Looking to make a fun deck that takes advantage of Gabriel Angelfire and his crazy ability, Rampage 3. Basically for the first few turns we want to ramp hard and dump equipment onto the battlefield. Once we've done that and we're able, we cast Gabriel and either give him hexproof/shroud or pray our opponents don't have an answer. Then next turn we equip Gabe with a bunch of stuff, hope he has a Lure effect on him, and call rampage 3 for his ability. Trample is a MUST HAVE with rampage, but other fun keywords include lifelink, deathtouch, double strike, EXALTED FOR THAT SWEET BUFF, and to a lesser degree first strike.

We want to make sure when Gabriel swings that creatures can/have to block him, so we want to avoid flying like the plague, if for some crazy reason we need it Gabriel can give himself flying(maybe to block), but we're looking to punch through tons of creatures and then hit for strong commander damage

But wait, your opponent has a lot of big creatures, or no creatures at all, well refill their board with Alliance of Arms or Sylvan Offering for even more rampagey goodness!

If you like this crazy methodology, let me know and tell me how you think it could be improved on!

EDIT: Retooled, upgraded version Gabriel Angelfire, reignited has been created. left this here as the decks are similar, but different at the same time
