I love it, but is there a reason it is evil and the default is evil EEs for evil weapons? I'd like it to be like Herod's Temple and usable by any. Evil weapons are much stronger than good weapons anyways, so it's not like it makes it OP.

Beautiful. Takes care of Thad, fits the Herod theme, plus it just seems to fit the verse perfectly. Now to make a Bernice so there are more characters that can use it :)
-
The verse on Blacksmith will make the reasoning clear.

The first one is kinda meh seems fun but not my cup of Horchata. 2nd one is good I would like to see that printed. 3rd one seems really wonky but could be very good... So I dunno.

I have to say blasphemy could have some really awesome uses

Yeah, I was trying to think about some of them. Maybe use it on WoS to clear out a territory before you make a RA. you could use Uzzah even against Fbtn...the more I think about it this would be a really great dominant. THe problem is woudl it be better than some of hte other evil doms? Right now, most Type 1 decks have about 10 doms and there is getting to be a high amount of dominant hand clog.

imo thats the counter to this many doms I try to use no more then 4 doms in my decks now so I never have this problem.

How about SWS?

A thing to keep in mind about Blasphemy is that it doesn't work on "if blocking" characters, so no WaS. I agree with the trepidation about it becoming stapley, but at the same time you lose an EC, LotS stops it, and there's nothing too terribly broken that it can do unless I'm missing an EC.

How about you change the ability to remove after the special activates? Nice combo with Que eh?
