So lets say you had jacob to angel at shur an dyou played this, does this mean jacob would be killed before he returned to hand?
-
Yes. Nobody can live in the presence of a Holy God.
-
first enhans has already been done for silver :p
-
There's only 2. And both don't do anything else, where as all the others do. Angels need some First Enh. Cards that are better than just that.
-

Not quite. There's one that interrupts an Enhancement, and one that's a play-when-blocked, but there's no ITB play.
-
Swift Beings
2/5
Interrupt the battle and play the next enhancement.
-
I guess I was thinking of Bound. But the smallest Hero Silver has is 4/4, so Hippocleides doesn't care if there are multiple ITB play B)

Angel at Jerusalem (Pi)
Type: Hero Char. • Brigade: Silver • Ability: 2 / 2 • Class: Warrior • Special Ability: This Hero has access to any Site. If King Hezekiah is in play or set aside, discard a warrior-class Assyrian. • Identifiers: OT Male Angel • Verse: II Chronicles 32:21 • Availability: Priests booster packs (Uncommon)
-
Angel with Secret Name */*
lol I wonder when was the last time pol used silver :p
-
The lowest useful* Hero Silver has is 4/4.
-
I agree. AoJ is useless. And just because we have Swift Beings and Angels Sword doesn't mean that Silver should be left w/ practally no useful cards when they are being discarded.
-
wait what? how is a 1/1 or a 2/2 with site access useless? And what are you talking about Silver has boat loads of interrupts!
Some what Angels Sword
Bound
that 7/0 thing
Swift Beings
Flaming Sword
and a couple more I cant think of right now... and even if they dont they still have the most useful fbtn banding, lots of banding in general, Chamber + I am (blue 5/2 thing) combo.
-
The lowest useful hero Silver has is 10/8 :-*
-
There is technically 6,
Flaming Sword
Bound - It's useless unless Ur playing against Demons.
Striking Herod - only works against Male Humans.
Swift Beings - Plays next Enhancement, but all the other brigade versions draw 3 as well.
Protection of Angels - it's very useful.
Gloria ex Eslsis Deo - Inturrupt and Negates a Curse or Weapon... Past that... Not that useful sometimes.
Angels Sword doesn't Inturrupt, it just let's u play an enhancement, nothing else.
Just to note, most of the time, banding only makes it harder to win. And plus anything w/ 2/2 is hard to win if an opponent plays a good EC.
-

im sorry this made me laugh pretty hard.
2/2 is for inish so you can play Second Seal and get super huge numbers with fbtn isnt that a win? And banding does not make it harder to win Gathering + El Capitan or TSA anyone? Old School Red Banding is an example of proper banding when played right you can stop any deck cold in its tracks. Sigh this is what happens when people play Garden Tomb decks and Disciples for too long :'(
-
2nd Seal is negated if TSA enters battle, plus if the Opponent has a good deck that can get rid of the good cards or destroy all the good cards u play, banding is useless.
-

That's just blatantly not true.
-
U obviously haven't played against Destrution Decks or wellplayed Babylonians
-
Chamber + I am (blue 5/2 thing) combo.
Nope, that got put an end to.
-
The three things that keep silver from being the best is this: No truly universal battlewinners 2:Lack of in-brigade banding. 3:No good* drawing.
*:They have d1s that are horrid.
-
U obviously haven't played against Destrution Decks or wellplayed Babylonians
I haven't personally, but I've seen it done. Babs can capture plenty of human heroes.
-
I'm against silver being a viable mono-brigade. It is already the best support brigade, especially now that pharisees are rocking.
-
That's one option of Babylonians. There are plenty of Crimson Cards that don't need to be played by Babylonians that are really good.
And also, Silver does have some Battle-winners: Striking Herod, TSA/Captian just not many.
And I think that Silver should have the option to have a good stand alone just like all the other brigades. Because I find most Multi-Brigade Decks (except Speed-decks) are useless. Believe me, I tried them.
-
Silver has the most battle winners of every brigade! You can get to 9001 successful rescue attempts with silver battle winners.
List:
1. TSA
2. TSA
3. TSA
4. TSA
5. TSA
...
42. TSA
...
9001. TSA
-
Yep. Plus Striking gives a + 1 against Humans. Then TSA/Micheal/Angels Sword finishes the job.
-
Striking Herod is nice for the 7/0 boost. I still prefer Godspeed though. Yeah, go ahead and block my Simeon Captain band with 12FG. :-*
-
Haven't herd of that one before. Nice! When I get Gab. Meets Zackarias and Di Gab, I'm going to be abusing that combo way to much.
-
I have that one and don't like it too much, besides, I like Striking when Im facing Nebu and don't have my TSA or Mike yet.
-
Nazzy kills Nebby. Problem solved. Silver is probably the worst brigade to go mono (red would be the other one...), so Michael is meh. Usually it's TSA, Captain, (insert two others here, banding angel, searching angel, or Gabe...)
-
That TXP Angel that searches for a site or fort is one of the best heroes in the game IMO. Right up there with Susana, Matthew, Thad, Capt, and MMoJ.
-
Oh Yea, I agree that AoW is great, I use it as well. Angels alone are actually not that bad. I just won my tourney w/ An Angel deck. But I'd love to see angels get a lot better. Besides, I like TSA/Mike combo, because I can keep using my cards while my opponent can't.
-
Angels alone isn't that good. angels with Teal or blue splash(Jacob and tribal elder) is OK(Not super though)
-

My Nats Deck nuff said.
Chamber + I am (blue 5/2 thing) combo.
Nope, that got put an end to.
When did that happen? We still do this at our tourneys... Need link please (:
-
Killing all humans is pretty powerful...
-

Only in battle. I think that these cards would be very useful to help make Silver better by its self.

I still have no idea how you did so well with that deck. Big props to you.

Sixth post.
-
wait how does it stop it exactly I dont really understand the whole "instead" thing. Does it mean like you can "stack" abilities?
-
Instead means the first ability never happened. Hence, costs are not met by instead abilities. Hence, if you discard a good card with I am Holy and it gets insteaded by Chamber, the discard never actually happened.
-
Such a horrible ruleing...
-
They need to start ruling stuff to make it awesome.
-
but if you discard an angel from hand would chamber still kick in?
-
yep.
-
hmm funky
-
That's why I love Chamber! Besides, I don't use any effects that would be insteaded anyway.
