I would like to see some kind of stall in here too like Burial Shroud and Besieging the City+SideBattle recursion

12 EC is to small with out some kind of speed/search. How about Choose the Rescuer on defence targeting your own TWatW? and Generous Widow with RbD active?

This is the way Lackey gave it to me. All hail the power of Lackey!

If you want that many blue enhancements you'll probably need more blue characters.

I haven't looked over the whole deck yet.  I can tell you that for the defense 12 is far too few Evil Characters.  You will want a minimum of 14 but probably closer to 16.  Egyptian Charioteer is a strong choice to add.

If your goal is deck discard I absolutely love the synergy between Wash Basin (plus 2 NT humans) and Given Over to Egypt on Pithom.  You can discard their evil stuff from the bottom, place anything good you don't like on top, then discard it with GotE without the risk of hitting a Lost Soul!

With a goal of deck discard, plus 3 SWJ's and a bunch of forced drawing, your lack of Watchful Servant is troubling. I would try to fit at least two of them in there. Even when he's not ignoring, a generic Luke Hero with good initiative that can't be captured is still awesome.

And although I understand the Awesomeness that is Abraham's Descendant, the rest of your blue doesn't really seem to fit. You're rarely going to get a chance to use Job Overcomes, and one Obedience of Noah with no way to recur it (Abe's Descendant is much better for EE/Curse recursion that GE recursion--although it does both, you rarely get a chance to get the enhancement back) will help vs. very few defenses (Kingdoms, Kir, Grapes, Unknown Nation, etc. are common in T2 decks). I'd probably scrap the blue to make room for The Generous Widow, a couple Watchful Servants, and maybe even splash in a few Judges. Moses and Covenant with Moses and Ehud and 2-3 Daggers are very good options, since the Daggers can be used on your Luke Heroes too, but are CBN battle winners if used against common characters like KoT or Judean kings.

Ambush the City is one of the most versatile cards a Gold T2 can have. When you attack, you have the advantage of knowing who your best attacker is, while your opponent usually doesn't. So if you go in with your second best guy, he uses his best block, and you end up setting them aside and starting with your best guy, you have your best attacker vs. your opponent's second best block (or oftentimes no block). Advantage: you.
Press 1 for more options.
