I decided to do some random testing against Geist Fafnir since I think it was more powerful than people were giving it credit.
I only tested Geist against God layers since Limited is a format balanced around God layers, so you'd want the meta God layers being the control group. I chose not to put Geist against any right spin Atomic users since this Geist Fafnir combo would win almost every round using LAD.
I chose to use gF.0G.Ds since a stationary combo like Outer.Eternal would just get ran over by nL and I do not own Bearing. The mobility helps it avoid contact. This is basically an old Hell Salamander combo with Geist Fafnir instead.

Honestly this just felt like I was using wV into hS. I could try different right spin attack layers, I just felt like Twin Nemesis would be the best choice since Sieg Xcalibur is better into right spin.
