Title: Sons of Samuel
Post by: Arrthoa on May 03, 2016, 02:57:50 PM

Joel, son of Samuel
Brown 4/4 TC
Israelite Judge
If Samuel is not in play, your evil judges ignore royalty. May band to Abijah, son of Samuel.

Abijah, son of Samuel
Brown  5/5
Israelite Judge X= # of your evil judges
If your opponent has used a search or exchange ability, draw X. Cannot be prevented if good royalty is in play.

I like what your trying to do here, I just don't know how it would work. I personally don't really use Canaanites, but I fee like most people who do wouldn't put these guys in just to boost ahimalech. Just my opinion though. Not really sure though.

I think somewhere you got Joel mixed up...how would an evil judge be blocked?

I'm trying to make them better and it goes with the anti judge
because Abijah anti search/exchange ability stops Samuel.

@Guardian, Fixed Joel

It's hard to come up with ideas when all we have really is they did not follow the way of Samuel.

Oh, your going for anti judge! I thought you were trying to boost ahimalech! I like this idea then! It doesn't have much support from the current cards, but I have a feeling that it will become much better with some cards in this new set!

Ahimalech, would be better with some more evil judges support. It could be a mini theme that they can use to be anti judge/prophet

Cool ideas! I'm sure these two brothers will be reprinted in brown some day.
