Title: What would a good Magician defense look like nowadays?
Post by: Red Wing on October 07, 2011, 02:50:16 PM: I know the staples Charms, Manny, Divination, etc. but with the new set and all the dual-brigade magicians, I'm looking for different opinions on what a Magician Defense could look like.

Thanks for reading!

Post by: browarod on October 07, 2011, 03:48:50 PM: Magic Charms

Astrologers
Chaldeans
King Manasseh
Egyptian Magicians
Damsel w/ Spirit of Divination
User of Curious Arts

Invoking Terror
Death of Unrighteous
Divination
orange battle winners
crimson battle winners
p.green battle winners
gold battle winners

Maybe something like that? I've considered a Magician defense but never got around to building one.

DS probably isnt needed, but I included it because I thought TGT could be problematic with all the dual- brigaders.

I don't think you'll see a lot of TGT with the New Set out.

A good Magician defense will always include Balaam, Egyptian Magicians, Invoking Terror, Covenant with Death, Death of Unrighteous, Confusion, Manasseh, Forgotten History and Assyrian Survivor.
