Which is the better Redemption hero?
Multi-brigade heroes were put into one of their brigades of my choice. They will usually be put in their "primary" brigade, but not always.
-
Poor Gideon. He finally got dug out of everyone's collection, but now gets slammed by a fellow Judge....
-
I wonder who will win this one. Ever heard of a Gideon deck?
-
It's really not fair to pair Gideon against the best of the best in gold. Gideon has a shot at being the second or third best in gold, but now he'll never get to do anything.

I agree. Are the pairings arbitrary or are they seeded based on nominations?
*EDIT* Thanks for the explanation Bryon. In that case down with Gideon! Not so bullet proof now are ya?
-
Pairings are based on number of nominations. 1 v 8, 2 v 7, 3 v 6, and 4 v 5.
Samuel was seeded #2, Gideon #7.
Moses was seeded #1 (which is probably why he is currently winning his poll 7 to 0).
The top seed is listed first in the thread title and in the poll.

I'm voting for Gideon. Prof Oak can at least make him bullet proof. The best you can do with Samuel is use WONL.

Honestly, Samuel is really overrated. He's not a good hero. At all. He's just the common link in many good things. Gideon gets far more rescues just because CM, HP, and Writ can't touch him, and he still gets the benefit of the D2 off of Prof Oak. Samuel requires waay too much support to be made truly useful. The D2 in Samuel's is only every once in awhile, and once you've pulled out David and King Saul (if you have multiples whatever, you're probably not going to be able to search for them every time), you should probably be rescuing with Gideon, not Samuel, since Gideon can actually make full use of Samuel's Edict while at the same time make full use of his special ability (or rather, Prof Oak's special ability).

Welp, there goes any Gold Hero's shot at moving past the brigades.
