Notes:
Taking this to a standard tournament tomorrow, any advice on changes to the main/side board? (I dont have a fourth {Thragtusk} if your going to suggest that :P).     Also, I don't have any shock lands  now, but will try to trade for them before the tournament starts

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.

Crapshooter

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

Terminus, or supreme verdict is awesome.

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

 you only board wipe at a certain time

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