Generus Giving for burning bush

I'm sorry, but I have trouble reading deck posts that aren't well-labeled and well-organized.

I know, I'm picky....It's the labeling that bugs me....I'm too lazy to figure out what brigade each of the cards is...and thus, I'm too lazy to figure out whether or not it is well organized....If the titles were bold or underlined or something, that might help also....I dunno :dunno: :scratch: :-\ (a collage of my emotions)

I would'nt use Purpleand White I would either do musicians(white) or Royalty (purple) your being new it wouldbe EXTREMELY hard to get a good deck outof purple and white I tried once and talk about Epic Fail
Title: Re: Any Ideas
Post by: TimMierz on October 13, 2008, 02:13:52 PM
What are you talking about, Caleb? Purple and White is a common and effective combination. A common application is recurring Authority of Christ with Lost Coin Found and Moses and Elders, and using Transfiguration (since it bands in Elijah). Lydia's ability to play Purple is a valuable asset as well, and her ability to use both Words of Encouragement and Reach of Desperation is quite valuable (and annoying to face).

Some of those cards might be harder to come by for you, Ms. Cat, but they're commonly found in white and purple offenses.
Title: Re: Any Ideas
Post by: BubbleBoy on October 13, 2008, 02:26:51 PM
Yeah, white/purple can rock if used right.
Title: Re: Any Ideas
Post by: michael/michaelssword on October 13, 2008, 02:27:35 PM
I cou8ld never makeit work  :-\ maybe I just suck at white/purple
Title: Re: Any Ideas
Post by: BubbleBoy on October 13, 2008, 02:51:01 PM
Yeah, it isn't easy; I can't pull it off either, but I've gone against some pretty hard decks with that strategy...I believe a few of them also used Assyrians....

Talk to White Knight about purple/white offenses.

well I have finally betten my dad with white/purple but its more of the defense I just don't now what to do with it.

 +1

Black might be the better color to go with given what you currently have.  If you use Herod's Temple (site) instead of, or in addition to, Pergamum your captures get a "cannot be negated" bonus on Captain of the Temple Guard.  Also, if you can get Authority of Christ, even just the unlimited one, it would make a great addition to your deck.  With that you'll want to swap out one of your existing Lost Souls for the "Color Guard" so you can place it in one of your purple Sites and protect your evil Characters from your AoC.

Sounds good to me.
Title: Re: Any Ideas
Post by: TheKarazyvicePresidentRR on October 16, 2008, 03:09:23 PM
IMO jerusalem is much better than H temple. allows your bands to get +1/1 per sad/phar in battle. But thats just me.
Title: Re: Any Ideas
Post by: BubbleBoy on October 16, 2008, 05:23:07 PM
But herod's temple would serve two purposes, both of which are quite useful. Besides, you can only use Jerusalem's SA if your opponent's hero has access to that site.

True but he has perg for that same use.
Title: Re: Any Ideas
Post by: BubbleBoy on October 17, 2008, 07:57:52 AM
Well, one of the same uses...
Title: Re: Any Ideas
Post by: TheKarazyvicePresidentRR on October 17, 2008, 07:35:54 PM

Jer does the other use :-p again up to you. I like huge sads bands with negates.,
Title: Re: Any Ideas
Post by: BubbleBoy on October 17, 2008, 09:47:13 PM
Oh, right. I was just looking at his SA; I hadn't noticed before that it said Herod's Temple or Jerusalem....Yeah, Jerusalem would be fun for big bands....Let's see: Captain of the Temple Guard + Temple Guard + HP Ananias + HP Annas + HP Ciaphas + Sadducee x4 + Jerusalem = 9 EC, 49/61 band (capture CBN, may search for Sanhedrin, may search for High Priest's Palace).

Yuppers. Awesome numbers... Now if you could get the banding cbn....
Title: Re: Any Ideas
Post by: BubbleBoy on October 17, 2008, 09:59:27 PM
Easy: just use Besieged (crimson curse).
Title: Re: Any Ideas
Post by: TheKarazyvicePresidentRR on October 17, 2008, 10:00:41 PM
Only works vs good enh/neutral cards. Not your own foolish advice.
Title: Re: Any Ideas
Post by: BubbleBoy on October 17, 2008, 10:06:44 PM
Oh, Foolish advice...can't find a way for that...

Title: Re: Any Ideas
Post by: SuperCat on October 18, 2008, 06:31:28 PM
so what you are saying is to only have one birgade in evil chaters. and only black. okay Ill try it but I don't now what might happen. And I do not have jerusalem's site but I do have herods temple. I don't have AoC either.
Title: Re: Any Ideas
Post by: TheKarazyvicePresidentRR on October 18, 2008, 07:39:20 PM
None of us know exactly what will happen ;) but it should improve the defense.
