Title: Demon in Armor combo
Post by: jtay on February 19, 2009, 08:05:09 PM

Let's say you have already rescued 2 souls.

Make a rescue attempt with Benjamin.
Play Obedience of Noah.
Choose Demon in Armor. <--Hooray for weird cards!
Play SoG/NJ on 2 other souls in play and simultaneously win the battle for a third soul!

Now as far as I can tell, your opponent will not have any way of combating this, since he can't very well interrupt SoG; and since everything pretty much happens at once, there isn't an opportunity to play FA either.

And for those of you who are unfamiliar with the card:

Demon in Armor - 6/7 Black Brigade
- Prevent all special abilities on Purple and Blue brigade enhancements, except banding.  If Son of God is played, discard this character.

Interesting use of Demon in Armor

I guess its a good use, but there are ways to combat that, say CM/uw/FA(He would have time to play it the ec died by s.a. he could play harvest time even). Nice use of demon in armor, I'd use either him or legion based on the color of defense you use, also remember both legion AND demon in armor are GREAT cards use um normally in your defense, not just as a splash / End Ad for Use weird cards foundation.

This would also work with Legions. :)

Legions are already awesome as they are.

Seriously, I use them in my grey decks, and they stop quite a few rescue attempts on their own.

how do you use legions? i know what they do but i dont get it? although it would be quite stupid if somone used legions as a deffence just use 4 of them oh noes that would be stupid.

Thats the point they are pretty much bluffing tools used to out bluff your opponent. Also does any one remeber the ability exactly? I seem to have forgotten  :P

Actually thats not it at all.

Legion may band with Legion.  You may have up to 4 Legion cards per fifty in your deck.  Discard all Legion cards if Son of God is played.

They have to be blocking for the ability to be active :-p
