No Bravery of David or Caleb? I feel like both of those would be useful additions to the deck.

Bravery has been in and out of versions of this deck and never ever got played when i ran it.  The occasion is rare that a lone red hero is in battle without being brought in as the battle winning condition.  Playing Caleb means removing Hezekiah and Isaiah for me and I don't find him to be as valuable.  Losing King Amazing and Valley needs an adequate cbn replacement.  Isaiah can be that.

@Gabe - yes, yes it is.  Add to battle options 4 (2 defensive 2 offense), dominant blocks 4, Character blocks 1.5 lol. Forts for days, Leviathan, Throne, Seventh Seal.  I wish i could find a way to make trumpet and sword better it just doesn't seem to fit in the reserve.

Covenant with David seems good in the reserve. Maybe instead of Covenant with Adam? Is there some combo with that I am missing?

Not sure I agree with Coliseum. You already have Abigail and Melchizedek to stop the chump blocks. And can't really imagine it would matter on defense. Also, Lawless without Imitate?

Gotta get back to lackey and figure out what I’m missing lol

Not sure I agree with Coliseum. You already have Abigail and Melchizedek to stop the chump blocks plus it stops your own Bravery. And can't really imagine it would matter on defense. Also, Lawless without Imitate?

I’m not running bravery. Set up requires Samuel in battle and I’m packing negates so Coliseum stopping scattered and similar CBN cards is worth it to me. I have 0 CBN enhancements in the deck (excluding Leviathan)

Oh I read faith of David as bravery, lol. With Coliseum I've found that I just don't draw it in time often enough to justify the slot. YMMV though.

I’m not coming back to anything more then this tournament at this point.  I do want to bid on nats next year though.

There has been some discussion of people from the hanover play group going to nats and if they drive i might consider coming.

@Guardian - Pentecost was the missing card I fixed it

I think it is easier to have I am creator in the deck. But that is just my opinion
If I speak with human eloquence and angelic ecstasy but don't love I am nothing.

If it's in the deck you can't grab it with Book of the Covenant, unless you have a Tabernacle priest, but then that kinda defeats the point.

An I Am Creator in deck is the exact same chance of getting it turn 1 as a Book of the Covenant in deck with IaC in reserve. Why run it in a place that can brick instead of the exact same odds of finding it while actually drawing a useful card after you have a hero?
ANB is good. Change my mind.
