What will you be running?

With all the awesome cards that have been revealed so far, what do you think you will be running this year? I realize that a ton of cards haven't been spoiled yet, but i'd be interested to hear what people are thinking about running.

For me, I am definitely running a blue genesis deck, at least to start with. I love the new support for the Abraham theme, the new blue slave, and the new CoMC. I'm working on a deck to work with the new Pit of Dothan right now. May not be top tier, but the shenanigans you can pull off with that thing make it worth building a few combos into a deck, at least for fun!

Judges red will without question be formidable. Simply having bravery, triumph, edict, dagger, faith of samson, faith of barak, faith of gideon on demand make them very powerful.. pretty sure everything is fast now so a splash defense such as high priest ananias, goliath, outsiders black gold, with abandoned plot to kill darkness then vittles sabbath breaker scattered .. cbn options uzzah of course and fire foxes. Maybe hypocrisy noah for ANB memes

Priests of Christ for the post anb rescue woman with child Moses Justin martyr etc yes this all fits in one deck will it work? Definitely will it be the best? Maybe. Will it be the most fun? No Flood Survivors and Mill will be the most fun for me .. And, if they make it through testing.. #JETPRIEST

I feel like I will run some sort of Throne variant with a bunch of territory destruction. Grail, Jephthah, aocp, Jehu+Jehu's Sword, valley of salt, etc. Genyptians could be fun also.

It would be pretty amazing if someone built a balanced CoL/AoG deck that just stomped everything...  ;D

I bet someone could make it through states and regionals without knowing it was nerfed

I plan on running straight O.T. Red. Will it be worse than throne? Yes. Will it be more fun? Probably.

Gold NT heroes / Persian defense.

Just kidding. Guardian has a great point about Revie silver being ridiculously strong (Flaming Sword helps too). But I have a couple of other good NT heroes offenses that’re nothing but a spearhead and breaks through many defenses. Defenses I like is splashed black splashed and splashed gray.

But I’ll probably end up going with my fave heroes and brigade: red OT warriors.

I'll be the guy who puts Throne in my Red deck just to mess with my opponent.

for real though, if there is an easy way to pul throne out of your reserve, red has david and jehu that can use throne, and they have counsel, jehu's sword, and not alone. wouldn't be that bad.

It's my belief that any Red deck that has David and Counsel of Abigail (so, all of the OT ones) should also have Abigail.  Basically a D3 hero that stops most chump blocks and can play at least one of your best battlewinners?  Yes please

The big problem is Unity on Benaiah and maybe other cards in the set. She's amazing because drawing is always nice, but it's a tossup on the unity or her draw.
