Rd 1 Blue (4 Ehud vs 5 Simeon)

4. Ehud
7/4 Blue (Judge)
Ehud may choose a male, human Evil Character from opponent's territory to block.  Wall of Protection has no effect.  Hero has first strike ability.

Versus

5. Simeon
11/8 Blue (Son of Jacob)
If you have a female Genesis Hero in play, opponent must discard an evil card from hand or territory. May band to Levi.

Ehud is so underrated because of his doppelganger in gold brigade, but CTB is absolutely fantastic.  Simeon, on the other hand, is accurately rated as 'meh'.

Vote: Ehud

I'm actually going to disagree with Redoubter on this one. Ehud is much better in gold than in blue, plus Simeon is one of the staples of a Genesis control offense. A basically free discard from opponent's hand or territory (because any Genesis offense, other than herolite, should have at least 2 females) is nothing to be trifled with.

Never used Ehud in blue, so

Vote: Simeon

As a side not it was really confusing the gold and blue Ehud, and the gold and blue Simeon.

Ha, yeah, I thought the same thing. :P

I think I like Ehud more. I've never been much of a Genesis guy and if I did play Genesis I knew there were at least 5 guys I'd rather draw before Simeon. Ehud's easier to combo with and gives me the idea of doing a blue and gold splashed Judges deck...  ::)

Simeon works well in hand control decks.  Ehud works well in no decks (he messes up genesis because of his reference.  he messes up in other decks because of his color).  If you want CTB use gold Ehud or Asahel.  Don't use blue Ehud.

Unfortunately, the PTB has pigeon-holed blue into Genesis currently, preventing Ehud from shining, but he still wins off of raw power IMO. I just wish there could be some normal blue cards again.

Simeon, especially with I Am Holy up, can wreck defenses without really doing anything at all. I vote Simeon.
