The whip is a flail. Look out for powers and feats that work with this group.
Also, spear and flail has some synergies, with dual strike.
For powers, "rain of blows" works with flails and therefore is the best encounter power you will ever get.
Pick all powers you can get the knock prone, it synergizes with the feats and items below. If you add a shield, perhaps an enchanted spiked shield, you can use powers like shield push and do some cool pushing, proning and sliding.
Sorry, I have no play experience, but I looked into it once.
The feat:
Dragging Flail
