 Is orange a good stand alone defense or should it be splashed with another color. What is the best way to utilize a demon defense,should I splash with some humans or what?

it works fine by itself... i would most definitely throw in some sons of sceva and some uzzahs. another you could throw in is a TxP gomer to band to your King of Tyrus.  other than that, they work just fine:)

Orange is finally able to stand on its own I think, but it still works best when mixed with pretty much any other brigade, with grey, crimson, and Pale green being the best to mix.

I think orange is better with splash than as splash, but it is also okay by itself. It's a great brigade for a lot of things.

would anyone be concerned with three nails? I would think bc of cards like 3 nails that it would be a good idea to mix some humans, like gomer etc,in the defense. Any thoughts?

Seven Sons of Sceva, The Pit, DoN, a few humans, Doubt... all get past 3 nails. I dont run into too many issues.

Very few people even use Three Nails anyway, since few people use demons and it's often a wasted card.

I'm quite positive Nails inclusion is a sub-region Meta-game thing. 3/4 of players in Rochester inlcude Nails in their decks, and the quarter that doesn't is playing with demons ;)

I always include a three nails, you never know when you are going to come across a demon defense or a splash that isnt prepared for three nails.

Not necessarily... crimson is a good one because of midianite attack, the old gomer, and perhaps the old fallen angel (depends on your preference), but I know that use brown for many reasons.
I know another person swears by grey (even though I haven't played him...)
Gates of Hell is by far the best card in the game.  No questions asked.

can anyone explain how orange and grey work good together? Are they splashed with grey humans or more demons?
