Title: Babylonians?
Post by: Arrthoa on January 28, 2012, 10:03:31 AM: I am building a prophet deck and was wondering if Babylonians would be good on defense? It would be a 63 card deck with 10 EC and 7-8 EE.

What kind of a prophet offense are you making? If Isaiah you want Assyrians, if Zeke babs.

Babylonians are almost certainly your best choice for defense then! :)

RTS doesn't count multi color evil cards. They were probably in there. Go Into Captivity is nice for Crimson too.
