Hello all, this a Brion Stoutarm EDH deck I've been working on for some time now. It's an equipment/lifegain deck that focuses on dropping back-breaking creatures, then giving them awesome equipment and smashing face, all the while pulling your life total beyond what other decks can deal with.
I'm working on a brion stoutarm deck myself and I think using him as a sacrifice outlet for stolen creatures is a very powerful interaction. You steal their best creature with act of treason or something in that vein, then fling it at their face and gain a crapload of life in the process
I originally ran Stoutarm as a steal-bash-throw general, but the concept got old after a while, it was effective but boring, I always won the same way. I prefer this deck this way because it's always different.
Don't get me wrong, steal-bash-throw was good, really good, just not what I wanted.
i think that your commander does not really fit your strategy, maybe jor kadeen would be better
I've been considering it, the only problem is that Stoutarm has Lifelink, which I like, and nostalgia of course.

Transcendent Master and Figure of Destiny, while both fun cards seem underwhelming. Huge mana sink for really underwhelming results, especially if you're just gonna throw them.
I agree with cutting the Akroma's as well considering they're very costly to play and aren't the biggest things in the world. Especially since most "good" equipment runs > 5 mana to play / equip. The whole voltron style game generally lends itself to playing cheap creatures and hitting just as hard whilst gaining their effects.
