Title: Best Support for Isaiah?
Post by: Tayls on October 07, 2018, 07:31:40 PM
As I earlier mentioned, I'm returning to the game after a 10 or so year hiatus. Trying to pull together a few decks to test, and I stumbled upon Isaiah and a few support cards. I matched it with hezekiah/solomon throne, but it feels lackluster. Isaiah with throne? Are there any better options out there?

Currently Isaiah works best with angels and a smattering of other green prophets. The defense that pairs best with Isaiah is Assyrians. Sometimes they include a few magicians.

I agree with Gabe that Isaiah and Assyrians is ultimately the best due to Razor and Siegeworks being CBN when played by played on Isaiah, and for use with Assyrians.

One of the pre-constructed decks I made is an Isaiah/Assyrian theme. Below is the link to the deck.

Thanks for the advice guys. I'll take a look at the options stated. Any point in splashing red (mighty warrior, etc)?

Might as well add Mighty Warrior. He’ll get out your Isaiah cards, and his toss is the boss. ;) And I’m glad your brought him up. I totally forgot to add him to the Isaiah Contender deck.

Mighty Warrior is definitely a must have!

I've considered music too, but I just don't have the collection yet to pull it off completely. Same with Throne. Isaiah/angel w/ assyria might be my best bet for now, but I've got plenty of time to test and change I suppose. I'm torn on whether I should put a lot of energy into Isaiah, or gear up for something else

Would be great if we might find some common time slots for common testing in Lackey  ;D
