Title: Attending first tournament, looking for advice on Judges Deck
Post by: yirgogo on April 02, 2014, 05:16:48 PM
I am going to be in a tournament in MN soon later this month, and I would like advice on my judges deck that I have never played anyone but my brother (Who is 10) with.

I only have a limited number of dominants sites and lost souls, so those I will try to trade for better ones before the tournament, these are just what I have now, and any suggestions for trading I will greatly consider!


56 Cards

Sites tend to be a bad idea, since they detract from other parts of your deck.  It you case they detract from your good enhancements of which you only have 3 battle winners.

They are recurable though, and yeah, sites made it harder to build my deck from, and I love cannanites, though they are best as a solo defense, I included sites to make there be less chance of someone attempting a rescue, because I only have a couple blocks, and sites help stop rescue attempts before they start, though I will see about getting rid of them, depending on how they do before the tournament, thanks for advice!

7 sites is A LOT, you will probably not have 7 souls in your territory in any one time, 3 to 4 would probably be sufficient.

Okay, would a BBH and 3 babylons be better than my seven sites?
Or what three sites would be best, if I had that I would add capturing cannan and Ehuds dagger along with Covenant of palestine and Wall of Protection (I know, not the best, but I have david in the deck and Gideon is protected against goliath anyways.

Canaan is the only one that benefits you in any way, so I would keep it. And then you could use the babylons.(Note to self: add site access for the tournament)

I probably won't face you, this is the first time I will play against somthing other than an TGT deck, and they are annoying, but overplayed and don't have site access, but I may face you in the first round or so.
