Due to the new rules you can only have 7 dominants in this deck.
Your other option would be to add one more soul making it a 57 card, 8 soul deck.

I agree with what Nameless said, but I would like to add a few ideas of my own.

1. The dom you should take out should be Burial (unless you want to do guardian), then you can add in Pharaoh's Magicians so that you can use Charms easier (Nameless's suggestions left you with only one magician).

2. Without Burial you should switch the 3-liner with the shame lost soul (so you can target key heroes or temporarily get rid of captain for Zeb to work).

3. Take out Jacob Buries the foreign gods, and numerous as the stars for Abel and Blue Tassels (that way you have another prophet for HT and away to stop soulgen/capture.

unfortunately I was only working with what I have....I don't have zeb, eve, judah, or simeon.  I don't have failed objective or evil spirit.  the others i have and can add or switch around a bit.  Since I don't have these cards what would you suggest?

I would consider buying Tin X That would give you Zeb, Simeon, and Reuben to add in. 

You could also stand to add in Angel at Shur as the fourth suggested hero. 

For the Evil enhancements I would leave in Enslaved by Egypt and add in Swift horses if you have it.

what about leaving in pithom and just using the put hero beneath ability instead of the discard
this would also allow you to hold unknown nation active in pithom

Nice, but not necessary. I would cut both for more necessary cards.

Would you mind editing your first post or posting and updated deck list so that I can see what the deck looks like after the changes you have made?  So many suggestions have been made that I would really like to see what your deck looks like now.  :)

I will try....haven't fixed the deck yet.  Too busy with work and such.  I actually started using a new deck last night.  I played against TSE and only lost 5-4 which was the best I've done since i've been on here.  You guys are soooo good it's crazy.  I made a Green Prophet-Angel/Assyrian and Babs.  I call it my Angelsaiahbabassyrian deck....lol.  When I get time I'll post the deck.  If I get time I'll post both my fixed Genegyptian and the Angelsaiahbabassyrian.....hehe...too funny.

Take out HT it's not worth it for only 1 hero.
Abel is a complete waste and Cap is going to hurt u w/ Zeb. (Zeb needs all Heroes to be Genesis Heroes)

Don't take out Pithom or Given over because they are actually more useful to u than most other cards. Given over can easily hit some very good stuff and can be used for LS generation. Pithom makes Opponents less wanting to play Doms quickly over using Enhancements.

Pharaoh's Throne Room will protect ur Egyptians in territory from cards like AoCP. Also, I wouldn't drop Ruthless and would add Pharaoh's Prison and Potifar. Drop So, Shiahak, Jannes and Jambres and add Potifar, his wife, Warden, Wonders Forgotten and possibly even Banks of the Nile/ Pharaohs Court.

Also, definately use Rachel and Creation of the World.
They seem pretty lame as fighters maybe we should challenge them to a dance off or a redemption game

Someone needs to think.

Able is great for playing CotW which can be a game winner.

Pithom and Given over to Egypt are useless because the Dom cap make dom played less often. Given over to egypt against a meta deck will do nothing because your opponent is drawing and probably can recur what is discarded, so lost soul drought no a problen

HT is amazing with joe. He can play Spiritual Warfare and RTC before the battle and probably win. 

He does not have those characters anyway. He has wonders forgotten. Sites are useless.

And he has both those in.

Next time lets read a post before posting.
