Best single color defense?

(1/4) > >>

stefferweffer:
I'd like to get players' feedback on the most successful single color defense with the fewest number of cards.  I say fewest number of cards because I'm trying to shrink my deck from 63 cards to no more than 56 before our tournament at the end of the month.  These are my choices with the cards I currently have:

Gold Egyptians (I also have Emperor Claudius and Gold KOT, if needed)

Pale Green Assyrians (I also have Pale Green POTW, and other pale green demons, if needed)

Crimson Babylonians (I also have Gomer, Ann/Sapphira, Red Dragon and other crimson demons if needed)

Black Sadduccees (I usually also throw in Lot's Wife)

Grey Syrians (I usually throw in Nero and Lying Spirit? (the banding grey demon))

Orange Demons (And I do have Orange KOT and Orange POTW)

Brown Site-lockout (This has been mildly successful for me too, but certain decks do annoyingly well against it)

So I guess I'm wondering which one is the most "efficient", meaning strong with fewer ECs and EEs.  How many defensive cards should a 56 card deck have in it anyway?  Is 20 about right?

Don't be surprised if my next question is about the best single color offense :)  Thanks for the advice everyone.

BubbleBoy:
If you're going for small...ness, then I would definitely use Brown (non-site-lockout), especially if you are willing to use a couple of Haman's Plots at a tourney. It has Complainers, Uzzah, King Zedekiah with Dungeon of Malchiah, King Nadab with King Jeroboam I (with which I would personally suggest Chemosh), The Jeering Youths, Korah's Rebellion, Gibeonite Trickery, etc.

Lamborghini_diablo:
you could use a pseudo lockout brown defense.

throw in like, one BBH and two babylons, taking naboths vineyard, and mabye wastelands. Then, have the rest of your defense be what bubbleboy described.

Brown can actually become very flexible if used right. I still rank it as the #1 defensive brigade.

*EDIT*

Thanks to this thread, I just rebuilt my nasty brown defense I had made a while ago.

BubbleBoy:
Did you add Chemosh? ;D

Lamborghini_diablo:
I actually dont use that card, as much as it would fit.. i need room for the better stuff.  :)

You up for a game?  ;)
