He's certainly more powerful than the old PotW, but given that most offenses have good banding options, not OP.  Genesis is the only one that won't be banding most of the time, and even they have ways around him (pre-block ignore).  He will also put the hurt on all the "negate and discard, CBN" that's going around.

Genesis also has Simeon+Levi & Jacob+CotH or Angel @ Shur.

Simeon + Levi is the only one you'll find in major decks, and Zeb is a better option.  Rachel + Jacob maybe, but Rachel is used more to get Joseph.

Until Joseph plays creation of the world and they're all out anyway.

That's the point. It can't be interrupted, so it's harder to get past.

I like it, Its not Op but this version may actually see some play. I don't really see PotW played outside of a booster draft.

the art is better too

Please do not double-post.

I like it, no muss, no fuss, just an upgrade to an old favorite.

There is a modify button on your post so you can just add that to the first post.

I thought it was an improvement, but I still wasn't that crazy about it. I got it off Wikipedia because I didn't think Googling "Satan" would come up with much.

Orange needs a little bit more to be a more regularly played defense. This card is a good start. I'd like to see some strong evil enhancements for orange too.
Title: Re: PotW reprint
Post by: Jmbeers on February 07, 2012, 10:46:24 PM
orange is a good splash D

But needs to be able to support itself.
Title: Re: PotW reprint
Post by: Minister Polarius on February 07, 2012, 11:35:41 PM
Idk, I kind of like Orange being like Silver, usually assisting Humans, pretty lame Enhancements, super-powerful characters.
Title: Re: PotW reprint
Post by: Mr.Hiatus on February 08, 2012, 12:09:38 AM
That's how it is now, I think every brigade should be able to support themselves.

Teal has some awesome potential, but it just works better with other brigades.

Not sure what the "haha" is for. A Z temple type 2 offense is nasty.

If it is (which I don't know, I'm new to the type II scene), just remember most people play type I far more than type II, and when they make comments, unless they otherwise specify, they are referring to type I.

Which is true of this case as well

Fair enough, although I do agree, teal is weakest by itself, and less played/splashed overall.

I would take the end the battle clause out of Forsaking the Lord, otherwise syrians might get out of hand in type 2. But other wise I like the suggestions.

Shobach could easily be OP when used in concert with Raider's Camp. I like the ideas, but CBN everywhere is generally a bad thing.

I still have a few more to make, but I'll open things up for discussion!

I think Ezra should be teal/green since he was a prophet.  Maybe change him to tea/green and change the first part of his ability to something like may use good Ezra enhancements regardless of brigade.

Unfortunately RC! doesn't have a dual brigade feature, otherwise several would be bi-colored.

I like the theme, nothing is OP but they are still playable... I actually think you should make it a little bit stronger by improving Ezra. As it is now he is kinda useless without Nehemiah. Maybey put a period after "play an enhancement" and get rid of the word "or." I know this makes him much stronger, just an idea.

Before I made him, the idea I had in mind was wayyy op, so maybe I weakened him a little to much. That's a good idea to make him stronger.

That's refreshing, it's easier to improve a card that is a little week than to dumb down an OP one so thank you for actually thinking through your cards before posting them!

I like them! (even though the lack of Multi-Brigades are problematic)
I have to keep on reading to get some more ideas.

Okay! Recently I was going through my ideas and began to 'update' them so they are more up-to-date in the wording.
