Title: NT combo for T2 deck
Post by: Josh on January 16, 2010, 02:41:05 PM: I was wondering if this combo would be an effective part of a type 2 offense.

Basic strategy: Set Mentor aside with The Sabbath so that Red enhancements cannot be negated the next time he attacks. Attack with Mentor, band to Claudia, band to Ethiopean Treasurer, then play Walking on Water. You will be 16/18 with unnegatable immunity to all evil brigades. Include some Red Brigade warrior class heroes, perhaps The Centurion at Capernaum or Asahel, to use A Soldier's Prayer x5 to recur The Sabbath. You can recur it, right? Multicolor enhancement = red enhancement?

Would this work? Could it win battles?

Covenant of Noah doesn't negate DoU/Failed Objective.

However, there are definitely some fun Red/Purple possibilities for T2 including the one you mentioned.

why not? it interrupts and negates any good enchantment in play?

They are effectively cannot be interrupted, unless there is an EC in battle who cannot be discarded for some reason.
