I figure since Nats is only a week and a half away it'd probably be a good idea to hammer out some of the specifics for Type Half.
A few questions I asked before but never got answered:
1. If you use Haman's Plot (without Gallows out) then would you just have to play with 24 cards in future games or would you be able to replace it to even things back out. Seems a little OP if you can replace it so I'm thinking 24 cards is the way to go.
2. What happens if you use cards like Herod's Dungeon that put "Lost Souls" in sites due to abilities? Would the Hero just be captured to general Land of Bondage?
3. This one might have been answered, but just to clarify, does the rule that you can't use cards from tournament decks apply to individual cards or all copies of a card? For instance, can I use Haman's Plot in my Type Half deck if I have it in my T1-2P deck and use separate copies? My interpretation was that you couldn't use any copy of a card that is in a tournament deck but someone else interpreted it differently and I realized it wasn't totally clear.
4. If the rule is no copies of cards used in tournament decks, then I assume that doesn't apply to Sealed and Booster, right?

For #3, I'm fairly certain that just means you can't use any individual copies of cards that you have in a deck that is checked in for a category (i.e. you own two copies of Authority of Christ Promo and you are using both for the two decks you checked in for T1 2P--you cannot pull one of them out to use in a Type Half deck for playing in between rounds). Once T1 2P is over, you can use one of your AoCPs in your Type Half deck.

Got a tentative answer to #3, but bumping for the rest.

I can't find the link to the main description of type half on here or LoR. Do you know where that is Jayden?

I'm not in charge of Type Half, Ironisaac is running the side event, but I'll answer based on my opinion which carries a little weight with him. ;)
#1, you cannot replace Haman's Plot.
#2, if it's been stated that Lost Souls cannot be put in Sites I expect that's a hard rule and applies here too. The LS will just default to LoB.
#3, Justin answered correctly.

Sorry I missed this thread earlier

+1
#4 yes, it does not apply to booster or sealed.

So you're saying I don't need Herod's Praetorium to empty my Herod's Dungeon? Sweet.

I'm super excited to see what broken combos people come up with!

I think that a job deck that fully utilizes the discard pile recursion has a good shot at winning.
-
Lol we might have to call a judge on that lol cannot be put in sites by game rule please..

I saw a soul in a site in a game Isaac was watching so I assume you can still get them in there by SA.
-
The card in question was soldiers of Jericho who may put a soul in a site as part of his special ability. I think that the best thing to do for the "official rules" of type half is that site have no brigade colors or all heroes have site access, or something like that. Because, I want people to use sites, as there are a lot of awesome ones out there, but a site lock deck in type half is just too op.
-
Maybe it's fine to just let them go in by SA? Is there enough room in a TH deck to get both the lockout tools (Dragon Raid is almost necessary in a TH deck with OT Male heroes as-is) and ways to put souls in Sites via SA in order to become broken?
