Yeah, voltron Gisela would be great but it's as you say: with a creature-hate heavy build it'll be difficult. I also already kind of have a voltron deck with my Zurgo Helmsmasher; I like to avoid building decks with similar strategies whenever possible. But with buying the From the Vault: Transform I really have no excuse to not build Brisela, Voice of Nightmares, lol. Goldfishing on Cockatrice the deck seems to run really well. I'm gonna give it my own spin, though, while maintaining the speed. Gisela has to hit the table fast in order to smash face quickly. Best play I've had so far was T1 Plains into Sol Ring into Lightning Greaves. T2 Plains into Gisela. It was glorious.
If you get a list together I would be interested to see it. I need to get this one suited up but I think its my next project right now.
Defintely! Once I polish it up a bit more and do some more testing on Cockatrice (against other people) I'll drop a list in your Gisela thread.

I have a couple of questions. I prepurchased the From the Vault: Transform and I plan on building either Gisela or Bruna. The point of running either as commander is not necessarily to consitently meld them (although doing so every so often would be a plus). However, I do want to build one in the hopes of building a monoW EDH (which to me is the hardest type of deck to build in commander).
Which of the two do you consider a good commander to start with? What do you recommend?
Are both strategies starkly different? Can I swap a minimum amount of cards to alternate them as commander?
You run each half in each other deck. How consistently can you meld them?
Any high and low points for each of them?
I'm leaning a bit towards Gisela since she's cheaper to cast (so maybe she's easier to build). And I've seen your list for a while and it seems solid. But then you go and also build around Bruna, lol. So now you made it even harder for me to choose!
