They're both realy good, but Salome + Herod the Great + Herod's Dungeon = awsome!

I'm actually a little surprised HtG is winning so much. I voted for him myself, but I still expected HA2 to do a little better.

Searching for the temple is great.  And negating banding is good (although not as good as 12FGs).  But HAII wins battles and cancels protection fortresses.  And just for bonus he can band to your opponent's Saducees.  He's just really versatile.

Actually, Herod is a better anti-banding card than TFG, because even if the band is CBN, he returns all but one Hero to territory, CBP. The only advantage TFG has is the opponent can play Abraham's Servant to Ur vs. Herod to get the band back.
