First things first. It's Bant....why splash black? Get rid of lingering souls. Throw in some {Angel of Serenity}, maybe {Restoration Angel}. {Sigarda, Host of Herons}. Those there are awesome. I had a Bant midrange and it was pretty much all GW. I'd go with Bant control setup with {Ethereal Armor} attached to a Geist is pretty nasty.

And maybe a couple of {Detention Sphere} for tokens or a backup for {Oblivion Ring}

Ran supreme for a bit, felt too awkward always having to kill one of my sweet 3 drops...

Unsummon + Supreme Verdict = Geist of Saint Traft in hand and board wiped.
