Title: Fastest Defense
Post by: lightningninja on September 22, 2011, 11:22:20 PM
What is the fastest medium size to large defense? I have a small but potent offense and I'm wondering what's the fastest defense. I want my deck to be fast but don't want a speed offense. Thanks for the help.

I want to preserve my offense. Thanks though. ;) Although that could actually work... I might have to try that. Haha

I've heard that Pharisees are fast even though I haven't seen them used yet. I have had a lot of speed with Genesis Egyptians though. Drawing between 5 and 10 cards a block is very nice and they have soul generation to make it so your hand doesn't back up too much that it's a problem.

Also in some situations Magicians can be very fast if you dont want to go the bandwagon of Egyptians or Phari's. Magicians have got all the multi color magicians (Egyptian Magician, the 6/7 Lady, Chaldean's, ect.) who deal with drawing stuff and dont forget about Divination. Then they have access to every one elses drawing enhans Swift Ponies, 2k Ponies, Bab Ponies, Dream, ect ect.

Babs are probably the most fully scaling defense. Their power level remains about the same relative to size. They're not Pharisees quick, but if you have a lot of space for them, they're extremely powerful.

Thanks everyone. I have an obscene amount of ls generation, so that's not my issue. I think I'll go with a mix with an emphasis on Babs. They're very my style and they are fast.  :)

Both Babs and Egyptians are pretty fast.  Both of them have horses, a draw three, and a drawing character.

I'm trying to mix in Genesis ecs of all brigades with the ls generation and drawing of the new Egyptians. So that rules out babs, but I guess a little splash won't hurt.  :)
