Judaizer would be a heretic, right? I like it. He may be a bit OP'd for T2, but in T1 I'd say he's balanced.

Yoke of Slavery should be TC. Otherwise, I like it.

Fixed all three problems.

Fixed all three problems.

Does it make sense for a heretic that taught that one must follow the old law (circumcision, etc.) to be a Greek? I thought that was a doctrine primarily taught by the Jewish converts. Perhaps I was interpreting the passage wrong. If not, it could be Crimson/Brown, since Brown could use some NT EC's, and it has traditionally been the brigade of rebellious Jews.

I thought so at first, until I realized that later in the passage Paul says he hopes they slip and emasculate themselves, implying that they are not already circumcised and would therefore be more likely gentiles who want to follow the old law.

Alrighty then. Gotta love Paul.

Given the new clarification of restrict targeting players, Yoke of Slavery may need rewording.

I like these very much.

Maybe u should make Yoke of Slavery also say that the Hero that it's on cannot rescue a Captured Hero.

How many heroes are gentiles? Centurions...Samaritans...King Hiram...Ittai...Midvives...do the angels count? I just don't see Judaizers being used at all.

Judaizers does have a somewhat limited scope as the vast majority of Heroes are Jewish, but a few big names it would stop are Ethiopian Treasurer and the Centurions, but they would stop almost all Converted EC's which fits perfectly with the verse.
