Thanks, Sadness for starting this topic. I think this information will be helpful for a lot of people.
Thanks, Nameless for taking the time to post all those! I've made edits, mostly just to add a few names that weren't on your list. I also removed these 2:
Lost Soul Negater - Luke 10:10
NT EC Protect - Matthew 11:21
I haven't heard of these and don't find any Lost Souls by those references. Can you help me figure out where you got those from?
-
I love copy/paste :thumbup:

Luke 19:10 - John Earley LS

I have a feeling that when the person typed it they meant to type 19, not 10, :10 making it the more commonly known FBtN Lost Soul. Still not sure about the other one.

Correction on Lost Souls:
You put "Lost Soul Negater - Luke 10:10" but it's really 19:10.
Also, I can't find this lost soul in any card list: "NT EC Protect - Matthew 11:21"
-
What's the special ability on that one?
-
This is awesome! So glad to have the references. Now if I could just figure out what packs the lost souls with the most defensive abilities come in. Can anyone help with this? I need to replace my lost souls with stronger ones.

Here are some staple lost souls with defensive abilities
2-Liner & 3-Liner - Proverbs 22:14 these count as two so they must be rescued twice to count
NT only, NT, New Testament - Acts 11:18 may only be rescued by an NT hero
Female Only, Female - Jeremiah 7:18 may only be rescued by son of God or a female hero
*/4 - 2 Chronicles 15:4 may only be rescued by a hero with 4 toughness or greater.
Beggar, NT Lost Soul Shuffler - Luke 16:20-21 Shuffles NT lost soul into deck when rescued
-
John Earley - Disciples - Negate all other lost souls the phase after this one is put in play.
Female Only - Womens, H Deck (starter) - May only be rescued by a female hero or the Son of God.
Speed Bump - Priests - Protect all souls from rescue if opponent has more than 10 cards in hand.
Exchanger - Priests - During prep, exchange this soul with an opponent's soul.
*Revealer - Angel Wars - When drawn, reveal the top 2 cards of opponent's deck. Place souls in play, others on bottom.
*2/3 Liner - Unlimited/Limited - Must be rescued twice.
NT Only - Apostles - May only be rescued by a NT hero.
*Shame - ROA1 - When drawn, set aside a hero from each territory for 2 turns.
Beggar - Disciples - When rescued, you may shuffle an NT soul
Shut Door - Disciples - When opponent plays a good dominant, you may place this on the bottom of your deck.
These are pretty much the best souls.... the ones with the asterisks might be a little tough to get.

Shame LS is actually Jeremiah 3:25 not 3:35.

Hey guys I found this old thread the other day, so I thought I'd put out there something that has been really bugging me since I first started on the boards:
What does "imo" mean?
The best I can guess is 'I must object', but it doesn't always seem to fit whenever people use it.
Please help me! It's been driving me crazy!
-
IMO = In My Opinion. It's not a Redemption acronym, just a general Internet term. You'll also see IMHO = In My Humble Opinion.
-
TPTB (or TPtB): The powers that be, in general the elders.
Usage: "I had a kewl combo but TPtB issued an errata."
-
FTFY = fixed that for you.
Example:
Usage: "I had a kewl combo that involved ANB but TPtB issued an errata."
-
IMO = In My Opinion. It's not a Redemption acronym, just a general Internet term. You'll also see IMHO = In My Humble Opinion.
Thank you! 8)
-
There's also FTR, which stands for For the Record.
Example,
FTR, TPtB arent always trying to rain on MJBs parade. It just seems that way sometimes. ;)
-
FTR, TPtB always try to FTFY, but IMHO they sometimes make things OP, like Thad and AUtO.
