So I've got a deck idea...

...but I'm not very good at building decks; so I'm asking for some help.

I want to build a site deck using silver sites.  My main reason for this is because I've never heard of anyone using sliver sites before.

Useful cards that I've come up with:

Lost Soul (anti-angel)
Prince of the Air
Prince of Tyrus
Red Dragon
Oblivious
Angelic Rebellion

I don't have any ideas for the offense yet.

Any help with brainstorming would be appreciated.

people dont use silver sites because silver is a popular color.

With all the TGT and Z Temple going around today, silver sites could be useful.

Try it out and see what happens! Though, you forgot a KEY anti-silver card...



Slap that sucker on Naaman and you're in business.

I'll disagree with Lambo. Not everyone plays silver, so Bow and Arrow won't do much against most decks.

You could do Orange/Brown for defence. Orange stops Silver fairly well with characters such as Prince of the Air, Prince of Tyrus, blah blah blah. Brown is a great site lock, so if they aren't using silver you can get rid of their access sites and still lock them out.

There is also "The Bear" which is Brown/Orange and that one enhancement (Effect: All sites in battle have no brigade color or something like that) is also Brown/Orange.

jtay, I used to play a Silver-site deck.

I'll side with L. Diablo in that a good site deck requires a way to deny Lost Souls to the good brigade of matching color. Two key combos to stop Angels...

    1) Namaan + Bow and Arrow  (CBN immunity to Silver.)

    2) Prince of Tyrus (wa) + Wings of Calamity  (CBN immunity to Silver except Gabriel and Michael.)

Once you have those in your deck, use a standard site lock defense against other brigades.  I went primarily with Black, because I thought it was a better access stopper than gray. Danites Attack is a must. Simon the Magician is always useful. Gold Calf/CoM to stop access characters. I also used Hormah (because it's Hormah) and Pergamum (to stop DR). I threw in Goliath's Armor to give me CBN immunity to purple to protect Pergamum. And so forth.

Use gray. You have art killers, a nj/dragon raid killer, gold shield to make them not the right brigade, bow and arrow, scoff at angels, mask of pride, deluge of rain (discard all cards in battle)... do I need to go on?  ;)

Okay, so I've come up with a first draft of my defense.  Tell me what you think.


Silver Sites: 4
   Fortress of Antonia
   Garden of Eden
   Hostile Environment
   Sodom

Artifacts: 1
   Golden Calf

Pale Green Curses: 1
   Confusion of Mind

Crimson Evil Characters: 1
   Red Dragon

Gold Evil Characters: 1
   King of Tyrus  (The orange one is too expensive.)

Orange Evil Characters: 2
   Prince of the Air
   Prince of Tyrus

Gray Evil Characters: 5
   Emperor Nero
   Job's Wife
   King Hoshea
   King Pekahiah
   Naaman

Gray Evil Enhancements: 6
   Bearing Bad News
   Bow and Arrow
   Deluge of Rain
   Idolatry
   Namaan's Chariot and Horses
   Strange Fire


When I make my offense, I think I'll splash in King Amaziah, since I've got two evil kings of Israel in there.  Do you think that would be a good idea?
