Does anyone have any ideas for a Fruits of the Spirit deck? What cards would go with it? And, what kind of defense would be good with it? Thanks! :laugh:

Wow. Thank you!

Another option discussed somewhere else on these boards is using Coliseum, The Throne of Grace, and Holy Spirit to recur the 2/2 no-special-ability Fruits from the Limited/Unlimited expansion. Red happens to have two such cards (Temperance and Goodness), which could be useful in an offense similar to the one Minister Polarius posted. They can be used as Negates via The Throne of Grace, or they can be used to abuse I Am Holy, or in a pinch they could be tossed via Coliseum to decrease an EC in battle 2/2 regardless of protection/immunity.

Minister P.,
I noticed you included the "old" Shoes of Peace (F deck).
Why not use the newer version of the card (PC or Cloud?)
Thank you!

The old Shoes of Peace is far better in most situations than any other version. There is no Cloud version, the only Armor in Cloud is Sword of the Spirit (which would be another decent option for this deck if you could find room for it). In any case, if you can get it setup, you can use the Virtue Band (Soldier, Soldier, Saint, Paladin) to recur, search for, and play Shoes of Peace every attack. This will force your opponent to discard an evil card from hand every time (since no Evil cards are in battle at the time). If you combo it with I am Holy and other hand control elements, your opponent's defensive options will be significantly limited.

Professor,
Thank you - that clears it up!
-
Just wondering if Love (EC) would work in this?
-
Add Children of Light.

Add Children of Light.
Thanks, i noticed if I counted I right I could still add Love and Children of Light without going over the LS amount already in there.

Hey Adevine,
I actually built this deck, and then made some mods to it, and I am still using it as my "multi-player" deck.
I can send you my list if you want it.
*Note: One change I made early on was to switch Stephen for Matthias, because Matthias has the ability to go and search for the Holy Spirit dominant card, which is a key factor in the deck.
God bless,
E

One thing to consider now is that TWWC can search for any good Dom, so it might be with it to try and fit her in.
-
Yeah, she is appearing in pretty much every deck now, right?

So what are some staple cards in most decks aside from TSC and 3woes?

playing on lackey is a great way to find out :)

I see Falling Away (W) and Guardian of Your Souls in most decks I see in tournaments.
-
Is this concept mainly clay and grey?
-
Yes, Adevine,
Most of good side is clay, and most of the evil side is gray.
