Title: Simeon and Gabriel
Post by: Ironisaac on April 28, 2016, 03:23:26 PM: Quote
I just realized! Simeon (wa) can band to any good prophet! he can band to Gabriel (di) and you could get R&R or Faith of a mustard seed back infinitely and play it EVERY turn! on top of that, he can be held in house at bethany!

I posted this on a ruling questions board, but it didn't really seem appropriate to keep it there, so i'm going to expand on it more. My thought behind this was "man, there is almost NO synergy between NT angels and Gold Luke characters. They should print a card to add some synergy between them!" then i realised, that simeon (wa) was already a luke hero and could band to Gabriel (Di), for recurable battle winners against humans, demons, and animals (via repentance and restitution, and Faith of a mustard seed)! in addition, if you wanted to get your heroes out faster, use Gabriel Meets Zacharias! to make this combo better, you could play kindness on Simeon and WWW on Gabriel for a truly formidable combo. Both of these characters can also be held in house at bethany for protection if need be. Any thoughts or comments?

Turn 1: Attack with Simeon/Gabriel to get 2 Fruits and recur R&R.

Turn 2: Attack with Generous Widow. Discard 2 Fruits to draw 2 and make opponent do same. Recur 1 Fruit. Play R&R.

Turn 3: Attack with Simeon/Gabriel to get Fruits and R&R back.

Obviously if they are playing demons you recur Faith as Mustard Seed instead of R&R.

yes
Doesn't it have to be placed on the angel you search for?

Nope, it just says "your angel". This can be any angel you own and control in play.
