Caleb is necessary. otherwise, Phillies would destroy him, as they have a TON of negates and can negate their banding.

because a deck without manasseh is like a deck without lost souls. there's just no point in playing it.

I am missing the Double Horse bit, Who is the gray Magician that can ride the chariot?

but he was just talking about adding in King Manny for more defence. not a bad idea with unclean spirit/messenger of satan and forgotten history/heavy taxes.

I think Herods Temple with the NT baddies would also fit the bill.
