Made myself a Geist of Saint Traft deck. Looking for any suggestions and feedback. It certainly leans a bit more towards a 1v1 deck. But it can get moving very quickly and overwhelm the oppenent with quick hits from the general and creatures. Made it more of an equipement deck as well. Open to suggestions and idea's! The group I play with tend to have lots of answers with either counter spells, or other mean's of getting rid of threats.
I was thinking about this deck a lot. You should cut the stealth suit. Geist already has hexproof and as cool as the stealth suit is...there is just better equipment out there.
I would cut Emeria Angel, Angel of Jubilation, Moonsilver Spear and Herald of War. They are a rather clunky and don't really lend themselves to a Geist deck. I get that Geist produces angels and all, but I consider that to be a bonus. I don't think you need to be putting cards into the deck to go with that bonus. Just keep that bonus as it is and focus on lending your cards to the more important focus of Geist of Saint Traft himself. I would consider putting in another piece of equipment that buffs Geist's stats and maybe a couple more instants or sorceries that either draw cards, protect Geist, or blow stuff up.
Even though I would not do this personally as I have just commented on leaving the Angel token theme as a bonus I would point out that if you really like Moonsilver Spear, consider that Sundial of the Infinite gives you a similar effect for 3 instead of 8.

Personally I like things like Loxodon Warhammer, Batterskull, Death Render, any of the SWORDS, Tatsuma the Dragon's Fang, Umezawa's Jitte, and the like.
