Uril is nasty. There is lots of ramp in the Naya colors, especially out of the Alara block.
He's easy to get out fast, he's easy to beef up, and he's essentially unkillable. My alternate win condition in that deck is life gain.
The only time I have EVER lost playing my Uril deck is to Mill decks ala Azami or a Leyline of the Void/Helm of Obedience combo. Creature decks just can't kill Uril.
The other day, I had a life link, soul link, and celestial mantle on Uril along with misc. other enchants. I had a Noble Purpose and a Boon Reflection on the board.
After swinging like that for a few turns one of my opponents finally dropped a damnation. So I just played a Beacon of Immortality and then an Eternity Vessel with 3,450 some odd counters on it. I wish I had pictures of their faces.
Test of Endurance and/or Felidar Sovereign annnnnnnnnd game.

I think that generally any general that provides tutor effects is really powerful just because tutor effects are so good in EDH. arcum dagson, captain sisay, zur, etc. I think Karn is also really good.
Rofellos is the most annoying (to only me, apparantly -.-). Which I don't get why he was unbanned, and Braids banned. Sure, 1st/2nd turn is annoying, but it's not going to be consistent. And while her effec is annoying, it doesn't ramp up mana to let you go ape**** on your deck, or auto win Staff of Domination.
As far as favorites go, however, my vote has to go to Rubinia Soulsinger. She gives you great colors to work with, and is a great defender. Not to mention she's goes nicely on the list of creatures Experiment Kraaj loves.

I understand that this thread hasn't been touched in a while but I've been moving around and exploring this format and my votes are as follows.
Control:
Teferi (Too many Counters to count)
Drana (Does you have creatures anymore? NOPE!)
Combo Control:
Sharuum (Best colors overall to control or combo off)
Momir Vig (Toolbox, aluren combo, fatty beaters? Yup he's got them)
Combo:
Dralnu (Best colors for combo, personal favorite Mind Over Matter- Temple Bell- pass turn)
Arcum (Darksteel Forge, Disk, Lattice-need I say more?)
Aggro:
Multani (Smash kill you, smash kill you, smash kill you...)
Rafiq (Cast Rafiq, remove creatures and put equipment on Rafiq and GG)
Overall Best EDH General:
Kiki Jiki (Answers for everything, Combo, Control he's just so good it's not even funny)
These are biased based on decks that I have either played with or against.
