Which is the better Redemption hero?
-
Wait...I'm the first person to vote for Thad and 6 people have already voted for Susanna? This is totally ridiculous. ET >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Susanna, Thad is at least >>>>> Susanna.
-
Has anyone voting here played a legal deck lately? ::)
-
In T1, Susanna>>>>>>>>>Thad. Cost me the game against Gabe at nationals. Her ability to hide or nab lost souls (namely the 2 liner), Son of God, etc, is awesome. She needs less support than Thad, and works with a better theme and brigade.
-
Thad's still a monster in T1. Just not as much of one.
-
Susanna hands down.
-
Looks like Thaddeus might get good fighted in the irl card game kthx.
-
Please. The voting's only been open for a day.
-
Please. Look up the definition of might.
-
Once all the people who have said Thad is a beast say that Susanna is better, Thad doesn't stand a chance. Thad's
going to might be beaten by a girl.
-
I can't decide:
Thad
Pros: If he wins we get a bunch of counters to him next set
Cons: Susanna is actually better
Susanna
Pros: Sheer Awesomeness
Cons: If she wins Thad might not get the counters we are looking for
-
Both Susanna and Thaddeus are really awesome cards that are significantly better with their support cards out. The difference I see is that Thad can actually win battles (and thus games) and is uncounterable. He's better in both T1 and T2 in my opinion and experience.
-
Susana has more versatility than Big Thad does imo. And she has won me sooooo many games by hiding lost souls it's unreal. As soon as I put her down, people play cm outside of battle because I abuse her.
-
People do the same to Thad (who, by the way, is incredibly valuable even if you don't have 9 disciples and Crown of Thorns). I'll bet you he's won even more games than Susanna since Disciples came out, especially in T2.
-
If Thad loses, then everyone needs to shut up about him.
=)
-
He's still WAY op in T2.
-

How about everyone who didn't vote for him. :P I'm gonna think he's the most OP card ever (besides NJ) even if he loses the vote.

As I said in the last Thad poll, counters to Thad are already on their way. Susanna is gonna stay awesome. :)
Thankfully, she won't get MORE awesome, since there isn't a single female N.T. hero in the whole 2011 set.

"Best" is totally subjective, it doesn't mean strongest or most powerful.
-
Susanna is only going to be in a TGT deck, Thad is only going to be in a Disciples deck.
Both are strong in both T1 and T2, but Disciples are definitely stronger in T2. Point - Thad
Susanna helps your offense by getting great cards from the top of your deck, but also helps your defense by putting LSs on the bottom of your deck. Thad only helps your offense. Point - Susanna
Susanna is helpful throughout the game. Thad is close to unstoppable in the late game, but useless while waiting to get enough other disciples in play. Point - Susanna
Winner - Susanna
-

Really? Susanna needs other NT Females in order to be better, just like Thad needs other Disciples to be better. Neither of them are useless in the early game. I mean, even just being able to protect from all characters 3/3 or less can win souls, or at least cause your opponent to have to use a character that he wouldn't otherwise.
Another thing about Susanna: Everyone keeps mentioning that she is so good at placing Lost Souls beneath deck. But I've never seen that to be a real plus, unless you have an impractical number of NT females, get really lucky, and/or only have a few cards left in your deck. She is forced to put all the cards she looks at beneath deck, which means next time you use her ability, the lost souls you placed under last turn are that much closer to the top, and in the end, the ability hardly does anything to actually bury souls. She is much better used for her "search" ability IMO.

Susanna has great numbers for initiative in the early game which is useful even if she can't search much. And you don't mind attacking with her early and risking her getting beat. No one wants to use Thad until the end of the game when he's invincible, so you just hold on to him until then to make sure that he doesn't get wasted early.
-
Thad's still totally useful early-mid game, simply by virtue of being a Disciple, with access to MLaMG, Reach, etc.
Also, I don't play Disciples to strictly abuse Thad, I really enjoy their versatility, so my opinion's probably different than the majority. (surprise....)

Are you kidding? Susanna is the best defense in my TGT deck. If I can bury a soul and get one more free turn to get a soul off you then I'm way ahead. Do it more than once and you're really looking good.
-
Since it's pretty clear that Thad is going to lose, I will assure all of you Thad-fanatics that we're going to help him out in the next set. Here's one of the cards we're making this year:
Calling of the Twelve
Good Dominant
Negate Sites and Artifacts. Search your deck and discard pile for all Disciples and place them in your territory. Return all Heroes from set-aside areas to play. Discard all curses, Evil Enhancements, and N.T. Evil Fortresses in play.
-
One of two things:
You need to add a "convert Judas" clause
or you need to reprint Judas as a hero.

Ok what's the catch...:P also how would that work with type 2 since I obviously can't have 3 Thad's in territory :P. Although that is an amusing concept.

This means Thaddeus is going to be good early game. :o.. :o......... :o............................. :o......................................................NO,BAD THAD.

Am I the only one that thought that was really funny?
-
My feeling is that whoever wins this, wins the whole thing!

Mr. Mo might disagree.
-
Based off some of the posts, does this mean we might be getting some OT females? Thaddeus can be played in a mixed deck aka (OT & NT). Susanna-white,plus a red brigade for some interesting battles :)

Susanna will win. Honestly, she is the better hero. Ya, Thaddeus is protected from harm(sometimes) . But still, a 1/x white hero with a cant be negated ability is very powerful. Thaddeus is 8/8 and bad for initiative.
-
Thaddeus doesn't need initiative. Thaddeus will blast through almost any defense without enhancements, and an AoCP is always ready if need be.
White doesn't need inish 90% of the time. Words, Blessings, and He is Risen are the most used White Enhancements, as well as First Fruits and Consider the Lilies, but those are pre-battle. Those are all interrupts. Inish is irrelevant in this matchup.

Thaddeus needs a lot of disciples in play to make him work. But, for white enhancements, you do need some initiative for the enhancements that do not interrupt.

As RW said, he doesn't need initiative. He protects everything from everything. He doesn't even need enhancements most of the time.
You are entitled to your opinion on which is the better hero, but I know what I think. In my experience, Thaddeus has won more games than Susanna.
Besides, Thad's in a better brigade (IMO), so even if he somehow becomes incapacitated (which is quite difficult to do - something that can't be said for Susie), the deck he's in is more likely to win than a Susanna deck without Susanna.

It should be. Judas was an active member of Jesus' ministry for almost 3 years.
EDIT: Separated my comment from the quote box. FWIW, I've thought Judas has needed a hero card for awhile now.
-
I do not want a good Judas. Ever. His betrayal may have been used by God but he was still an evil man. Don't paint a picture of light around him.
-
Don't judge a man because of one evil thing he did.
I am against a Judas hero.
We've had this discussion before. Lets not have it again.
-

It is not a "picture of light," it is facts from the Bible and I can prove it. Like it or not, he did minister with the rest of the disciples.
-
Kenneth Copeland "ministers" too.

I am aware of that. He still betrayed Christ that outweighs the amount of good he did imo. If Judas was printed as a hero I'd raise a large amount of cain he

So what you are saying is that you will throw a temper tantrum of epic proportions to the status of the first murderer in the Bible because your theological feathers got a bit ruffled. Ironically, you want to cause misery for your fellow Christians over a Christian card game because of your Christian beliefs.
Funny thing is the person who Judas betrayed loves him and treated him with love more than you are willing to do. You do realize that Judas could have been forgiven had he asked right? Afterall, Peter betrayed Christ and was aloud to repent and get to be a hero in Redemption too! ::)
-
Think about it for a second. This man betrayed the Son Of God. I wouldn't throw a major tantrum but I may quit if he was published.(PM if you wanna contenue the debate. I don't wanna derail this further)
-

I think this is the point of the matter. Nowhere does it say Judas repented. As far as we know, he should not be a hero.

Last comment on the tangent:
Judas was one of the twelve, given the power and message to deliver as evident in Mt 10:1-4. He was a "hero" (in Redemption terms) before his mistake.
1 Jesus called his twelve disciples to him and gave them authority to drive out impure spirits and to heal every disease and sickness.
2 These are the names of the twelve apostles: first, Simon (who is called Peter) and his brother Andrew; James son of Zebedee, and his brother John; 3 Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus; 4 Simon the Zealot and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.
5 These twelve Jesus sent out with the following instructions
Yes, Judas didn't repent, but neither did Solomon or Saul or others who also have good cards that made mistakes later in life. In fact, all the disciples (but John as far as I can tell) betrayed him in their abandonment. That is why Judas has an evil card and the others doesn't. I don't think it means that he never deserves a hero card (because he did do good things early in the ministry) or that it's worth quitting the game over.
Remember this, all the disciples were grappling with the problem of Jesus not living up to their expectations. It appears that, on some level, they recognized the possibility of betrayal otherwise they wouldn't have taken turns to see if they were the betrayer in Matthew 26:20-22.
20 When evening came, Jesus was reclining at the table with the Twelve. 21 And while they were eating, he said, “Truly I tell you, one of you will betray me.”
22 They were very sad and began to say to him one after the other, “Surely you don’t mean me, Lord?”
Judas ministered, in the SAME WAY, as all the other disciples early in the ministry. He let unrepentant sin grow in his life (greed), found Jesus teachings hard (not the military messiah the Jews wanted), and turned away ("converted" in Redemption terms). It makes perfect sense to me to have a Judas' purple hero.
And one more thing...
We all crucified Jesus. It was our sin that hung him there (Isaiah 53). We all betray Jesus when we are ashamed to speak up for what is right, to witness about the good news, or when we actively choose to participate in secret habitual sin in our life. Instead of throwing rocks at Judas and vilifying him for being human, how about we examine our own lives and realize how much like Judas we are.
But what do I know, I'm only a noob. My :2cents: has now been deposited.
-
I agree completely Jonathon. Sometime I should come down and hear one of your sermons.
So, Biblically, it's possible for Judas to have a hero. However, do we really want *another* disciple for Thad?
-
Man, doesn't Jesus preach forgivness? Judas played a part in the story of Christ. God knew what was going to happen. I am pretty sure biblical writers did not prboe the mind of Judas to see whether he repented for what he did or not.
-

I guess that you're perfect then. In the bible Jesus said that not one sin is worse than the another. Every sin is against God. We don't deserve anything he gave us, none of us should be considered heros without gods forgiveness. Judas was forgiven because he was a believer. If you recall he did try and take it all back after he saw what happened. His one sing is equal to you or anyone else lieing or using the lords name in vain. SO to say he should not be a hero is saying that every hero and you are perfect.
-
If there were ever a Hero Judas, he'd probably be something like this*:
Judas Iscariot
6/4 Purple Hero////12/15 Crimson Evil Character
-Disciple, Enters play as a Hero-
Hero Side: If Son of God is discarded without rescuing a Lost Soul while Judas is in play, convert him to the Evil Character Judas regardless of protection. Cannot be negated.
Evil Character Side: Immune to Disciples and protected from good dominants. While in play, discard Judas if Thirty Pieces of Silver discards a Hero, regardless of protection. Cannot be negated.
But, what do I know. INE.
Owait... ::)
*This post has not been reviewed for accuracy, and several fabrications may or may not exist within the previous sentences.
-
I'm not saying that. I sin just as bad as others. Judas being a hero would paint a bad picture for the game. I wouldn't hate PofA's idea.
-
God forgave him, he tried to repent, he was a disciple. He's a hero. You're holding one sin against that is equal to one of yours. I could argue against you being made a custom hero because of a sin you made but no because the Lord almighty forgives. If that's not good enough for you then I don't know what is.
-
While I personally wouldn't object to Judas being printed as a Hero, Red does have a valid point. Whether we like it or not, it probably wouldn't go over well from a marketing standpoint. Consider the average Christian family, who have always taught their kids that Judas was evil because he betrayed Christ. They've learned the story in Sunday School, and overall see him as nothing but a Disciple who made secret "withdrawals" from the Disciples' money, and later betrayed the source of humanity's salvation. Now this parent hears about Redemption, but sees that in the game, Judas is a Hero, i.e., presented in a positive light. The parent may be uncomfortable with a game that allows people like Judas to rescue the Lost. Sure, it may lead to thought-provoking discussions about Judas' inherent goodness or evil, and the definitions of good and evil in general, but that may not be the conversation that a parent wants to have with his 11-year old.

Wait, how is it Biblical that he tried to repent, or that he was forgiven? He hung himself. Debates about that being a mortal sin aside, that doesn't suggest forgiveness. He regretted it, sure, but that's all. I don't believe there's any Biblical evidence to prove that Judas was ever a "hero". He was a thief, and we're not told how much into Jesus' ministry that that was. I may just be not very well-read, but yeah.
I'm inclined to agree with Red. I think that making Judas a Hero is toeing some very, very critical lines. I would probably drop Redemption if he was printed as a Hero, honestly.
-

What about King Solomon? He is a good hero-he started out loyal to God,but allowed his foreign wives to influence him. He started worshiping foreign gods,ignoring God,inflicting heavy taxes on the common people,building temples to false gods. God then raised up individuals against King Solomon. Maybe we will get a evil King Solomon. That would be great. Someone to counter King David and perhaps some priests.

While all that is true, the more common view of Solomon is the wisest man in the world, the son of Israel's most godly King, who built God's temple. I doubt that there will ever be a King Solomon EC, I wouldn't be surprised if there was ever a card similar to Adonijah for Joab, that could convert him to an Evil Character.
-
EC Solomon would be useless against King David, unless you've got Golgatha.
-
EC Solomon would be useless against King David, unless you've got Golgatha.
And even then Golgotha only protects N.T. characters.
-
EC Solomon would be useless against King David, unless you've got Golgatha.
Correction: EC Solomon would be useless against King David, even if you have Golgotha. I know Solomon was mentioned once in the N.T. (Consider the Lilies) but I don't think that's the verse that would be chosen for him.
-
Would anyone be opposed to me making a topic in the proper forum to address the concept of a "Hero" Judas? It's an interesting topic I don't mind talking about.
-
You'd have to have a Global Mod do that, since I'm pretty sure Bryon mods this section. I think the topic has already been discussed at length previously, however, so maybe you could do a search and bring up any new points if you find the thread.

Gah, fail. I keep forgetting Golgatha is NT.

King Solomon was a good guy who repented at the end of his life and wrote the book of Ecclesiastes to tell the world of his discovery. Don't bring him into this debate.

4 rounds of voting.
60 matchups.
And we finally have our first tie.
Unfortunately, I'm guessing Bryon will vote for Thad...
Kurt voted for Thad. Kurt loves disciples. Kurt played Disciples at nats in California. Yeah, when disciples were... um... yeah. Kurt won the first 4 or 5 rounds of Type 1 2-player and made it all the way to the top table with the Red Phillip in his deck! Imagine Gabe's surprise at seeing a red 9/7 Phillip! In honor of that achievement, the father in me wants to vote for Thad for his sake.
But I've always loved Susanna. I've loved her since I found her art on goodsalt, and when her stats and special ability were nothing but typed letters on our "2009 set" list. Since before I knew what "Thesaurus ex Preteritus" meant. Susanna does a great job supporting your heroes, just as she supported Jesus during His ministry. And she does it without spilling your lost souls out all over the table. Now that Herod's Temple is around, it is pretty useful to have a hero who gets you cards without shrinking your deck too quickly. She gets you only what you most need. She has great initiative. She has great art. She has a great ability. She is part of a great theme.
I vote for Susanna.
