This is an EDH deck inspired by Isamaru decks that want to play one creature and pump him up. I wanted to use Mageta The Lion instead for his board-clearing ability. It makes sense, if I'm not going to be playing many creatures, for other players not to be also. I want some more/better untap creature effects for white besides Staff of Domination, Thousand Year Elixir and Sword of the Paruns so I can activate Mageta and attack on the same turn. Here's the list.

General: (1)
Mageta The Lion

Other Creatures: (2)
Stoneforge Mystic
Steelshaper Apprentice

Enchantments: (18)
Celestial Mantle
Eldrazi Conscription
Serra's Embrace
Divine Transformation
Glacial Plating
Daybreak Coronet
Armored Ascension
Empyrial Armor
Battle Mastery
Land Tax
Arrest
Cage of Hands
Story Circle
Runed Halo
Oblivion Ring
Seal of Cleansing
Faith's Fetters
Divine Sacrament

Artifacts: (23)
Sigil of Distinction
Sword of Fire and Ice
Sword of Light and Shadow
Sword of Vengeance
Loxodon Warhammer
Empyrial Plate
Kusari-Gama
Sword of Kaldra
Helm of Kaldra
Shield of Kaldra
Gauntlet of Power
Sol Ring
Worn Powerstone
Pearl Medallion
Book of Rass
Urza's Blueprints
Sensei's Divining Top
Thousand-Year Elixir
Sword of the Chosen
Staff of Domination
Sword of the Paruns
Sunstone
Marble Diamond

Sorceries: (6)
Mass Calcify
Armageddon
Ravages of War
Cataclysm
Idyllic Tutor
Steelshaper's Gift

Instants: (10)
Swords to Plowshares
Oblation
Abolish
Enlightened Tutor
Disenchant
Exile
Tithe
Swell of Courage
Charge across the Araba
Plow through Reito

Lands: (40)
Scrying Sheets
Kor Haven
Flagstones of Trokair
Reliquary Tower
36 Snow-Covered Plains

The snow-covered basics have synergy with Scrying Sheets, Sunstone, Land Tax, Charge Across the Araba, Plow Through Reito, Glacial Plating, and Armored Ascension.

There's not much to the deck, really. I would like to consider some things to give my artifacts indestructibility, Replenish, Flickerform Ward, and perhaps Leonin Shikari. Hopefully there are other ways to be able to activate Mageta and attack on the same turn, to win quickly with general damage. Any tips are appreciated, but I own these and precious few other cards after selling my collection.

Other general ideas are those with Horsemanship from P3K and Jareth, Leonine Titan for his built-in protection ability. It would be easy for him to get combat damage through. The other generals would require Wrath effects to be put into the deck, though.

Elspeth would help with getting general damage in quickly, as she can pump and give evasion.  Plus she's eventually help making not just your artifacts indestructable, but your creatures and enchantments to boot.

Keep in mind as well that the Duel Deck: Elspeth Vs. Tezzeret will be out soon, so Elspeth's should be easy to find.
