Legendary Creature — Spirit Cleric

Azorius Voltron that suits up a hexproof Geist, attacking each turn with a free 4/4 flying Angel at its side.

Geist of Saint Traft is a 2/2 hexproof for three. Whenever it attacks, you create a 4/4 white flying Angel token that's tapped and attacking, which is exiled at end of combat. That's six damage a turn for three mana, but a 2/2 dies to almost any blocker. So the deck loads Geist with equipment and auras to make it bigger, harder to block and safe in combat, while hexproof keeps opponents from targeting it.
In the recorded games, Geist won mostly through classic Voltron lines. Sword of Fire and Ice was the standout, giving protection, card draw and extra damage, and the Angel tokens let it pressure two players at once. God-Pharaoh's Statue slowed opponents down by taxing their spells, though one opponent cast their commander in response to get ahead of it. Auras on opposing creatures stopped attacks from an Eriette of the Charmed Apple deck, and bounce spells let it reuse key cards. Hexproof didn't help against board wipes or sacrifice effects, and the deck had to rebuild its equipment after each reset.
