Redirecting an Enhancement takes the numbers of the redirected Enhancement as well, actually. So Distortion is basically (6 + X)/Y, where X/Y is the numbers of the redirected Enhancement.

I'm also pretty sure 6 is our usual maximum total on EEs, so it would need to be 5/1 or 4/2.

That's a really interesting ability. Can "look at a hand" target yourself? I assume it can target a teammate.

Okay I did not realize redirect also uses the numbers of the redirected enhancement as well.

Maybe it does not need the 1 toughness as much as I thought since redirect does numbers as well.

But still maybe something to consider possibly of adding 1 toughness.

I understand "look at a hand" also as my hand as a valid target.

The very first line of the “Look” entry in the REG leads me to believe you cannot look at your own hand since it’s already visible to you.

A look effect allows a player to see cards that are not usually visible to them.

@Watchman, AtG will need to be in battle for Greeks to have first strike. Since he bands, and can be banded too, the benefit will apply to all banded Greeks (assuming unity).

Good catch that he also grants FS to good Greeks. If there’s room I’ll add “evil”. If there’s not, in the rare event that he blocks vs a good Greek the the FS will cancel out.

I asked the same question when it was first spoiled and this was the response.

Minor correction: the scripture needs a closed quotations mark.

I love that you can activate an artifact during an interrupt, that is such a cool trick. I'm not sure if there are many situation where you'd want to, but it would be neat to activate Ark of the Covenant (Kings) when your last character is being removed so you can discard the blocker. Or Blue Tassels to protect from a Capture. It looks like a fun card. That's for sure.

Didn't Polarius eventually lobby Silver Trumpets into the Priestly Artifact category? Seems relevant with Ahimelek

If they play a curse as an enhancement, you can negate and underdeck it with RoJ Ark of the Covenant.

This is one of my favorite Lost Souls I've seen so far (and I mean ever). Need a specific artifact from Reserve? No problem. Your key characters got captured, get them back. Are neither of those true? Just grab a card from discard pile and topdeck it. It's such a me card I think I'll want two for most of my decks.

I agree, with the top decking Star cards being especially potent if the Star abilities trigger off of normal draws.

It’s limit once per game applies to all copies.

Aren't per-game limits based on player, not card? I thought I remembered hearing that you only get two converts even if you run two Grails...

Instaposted by Kor. It still isn't impossible to hit double digits, though it'll take a bit of effort. Some of the best Egyptians aren't warriors (magicians, baker/cupbearer, etc), so building full warriors to take advantage of this may carry a bit of an opportunity cost. That said, if you're going full mill, may as well go for broke, eh? And he is an Exodus Egyptian, for the synergies that provides.

As far as gold curses go, we have Given Over to Egypt, Unknown Nation, and Oppressed and Robbed (which makes deck discards CBN while your human is blocking). I imagine that'll mostly be Given Over, although this guy into Unknown Nation (especially the new one) on turn 0 can open up your options a lot.
