Title: What mixes well with Revelation Demons?
Post by: megamanlan on June 28, 2017, 03:09:15 PM: I've been working through concepts of a Defense using some of the new Revelation Demons, but I keep hitting a wall of what else I should try. So I'm tossing it out to all of you:

What works well with Revelation Demons? I'm looking for a defense that has some speed and can really mess with my opponent. Any suggestions?

Post by: megamanlan on June 28, 2017, 03:17:15 PM: Yep, and I'm running them. Namely looking at themes. I'm thinking Magicians or Heretics mix well in a sense...

Heretics can mix well with Greeks but not as much with other themes.
