EDH of the Many

[jrr]

So I was talking with young Chad (aka Lips), and we got on the topic of a Bant EDH with Rafiq as your general. So I'm considering building something for fun, slowly but surely and I thought I would post it here.

I am going for a control build, so I'm thinking WoG, Route, lots of spot removal, and some counters, plus good CA like Mulldrifter, Ancestral Vision, and Fact or Fiction.

You forgot Mr. Tarmogoyf and Force o' Will
and for dueling purposes I say add Armageddon and Iona.

Goyf isn't that amazing in EDH really. He's just a big dumb thing.

You did forget a couple good things though. Lightning Greaves and Whispersilk Cloak. Cloak turns Rafiq into a player killer.
