You might win a game or two here or there. What you have here is a below average deck. Your artifacts are all over the place and your offense and defense need a good bit of work.

Defense-wise, you need Nadab, Jeroboam, and Gibeonite Trickery. For that, I would take out I Am Holy (unless I'm missing some strategy there?), Crown of Thorns (kills practically all of your own characters), and Wool Fleece (this doesn't seem very useful). That's just for starters.

He shuldnt add Nadab and such. With a defense so small, they wont help him at all.

What bubbleboy and SoulSaver said.  And, if you're using more defense, take out HT.  It's usually for decks whose defense can't last very long.  w/the way it looks, btn shuts the defense down... completely.  The plot may hold them off for one block, maybe 2 w/ king zed and dungeons, but ya gotta beef it up.

The Spy has suggested this via Hamachi

out:
Storehouse
Ark of the Covenant
The Bronze Laver
Victory
1st Seal
Harvest Time

I am Holy
Crown of thorns

In:
5 sites (including 2 Babylons and a BBH)
Captured Ark
Taking NabothsVineyard
LandPurchase
2nd Seal
Innumerable
Army of the Lord
Burning Censer
5th Seal

who thinksthat would work? I'd need to take out 5 more cards though

If you're gonna use land purchase, you're gonna want king Omri.  Captured ark could help; so could army of the lord, the sites and taking naboth's vineyard.   Fifth seal may be extra, considering you've got CoF AND chamber of angels; same w/ burning censer.  The Spy recommended TOO MANY banding cards.  One would suffice.  Maybe second seal; you band all their EC's in and kill them ;D ftw

Aren't angels+I am holy+chamber supposed to work for a defensive heavy deck? I don't see it working with a defense that small...  :-\

Not sure if you got the memo, but defense is really good now.  Use it.  Try a balanced deck for once, and I think you'll be surprised by how effective it can be.
