A High-end foil competitive-level Aura-Geist EDH deck, originally a tiny leaders Geist of Saint Traft deck that I expanded into a full size EDH deck as I grew to love him more and more as a commander.

All foils and printings are accurate to what I currently have.

I've been playing this deck a long time now, and it obviously means a lot to me. Its a very fun deck to play, Geist is such a versatile commander with so many build options. I'm a huge fan of Blue/White, especially draw/counter cards, but my problem with design always came down to control's win-con almost universally having to result in a infinite-combo or 'solitaire-esque' playstyle, where you go off on a crazy combo and everyone else just has to watch until you win. It's unfriendly, and generally get's boring/repetitive as a playstyle as the pilot of the deck when you do the same thing everytime. This deck aimed to be different by running aggro in a Blue/White color scheme not normally seen. Obviously this deck is consistent and does tend to do the same basic thing every game (play Geist, make him big, swing at face), but it does so while allowing you to interact with each of your opponents throughout the game, working to respond to changes in the board state turn after turn. In larger games (4-6 players) it becomes significantly more diplomatic as you have to balance who you want to attack with how big of a target you become, and the overall tempo of the deck changes drastically as a result.

I made this deck with that goal in mind, a deck to let me play a fun blue white deck where I feel like I can always interact and respond or do something based on what's going on on the board, and always feel involved in the overall game, while still giving me an overall solid win condition that makes my opponents care more about just 'whether or not the blue player has a counterspell'.

Comments, up votes, and advice always appreciated :)
