Post by: Bryon on March 18, 2011, 03:00:33 PM: Which is the better Redemption hero?

Post by: Prof Underwood on March 18, 2011, 04:59:34 PM: I gotta go with versatility here. Job is awesome in a deck built around him (ie. Dust and Ashes). But Jacob is awesome in all kinds of decks. He is essential in a Genesis deck. He works great with an angel deck. He could go with a prophets deck. And you could just splash him with Reuben's Torn Clothes into just about any deck (as long as you had a way to get rid of Golgotha).

Jacob is best blue hero without a doubt, why even vote? Should have just put him through and scrapped all the other blue Heroes. Seriously, he plays pre-block either CTB, Ignore, or FbtN+banding. You can't beat that with protection and big numbers (Job). Oh, and he bands to Captain of the Host.

Did I mention he bands to Captain of the Host?

Post by: Professoralstad on March 20, 2011, 12:04:05 AM: The thing with Job is that against a properly built Job offense, you give Job initiative at your own peril. I like Job better because he requires a bit more strategy to be used effectively. But I don't expect him to win.
