what i see a lack of is kill cards
you have 1 kill card you can recurr it once for sure then the rest of the time you have to get lucky.  also consider the fact that if you draw a bunch of heroes early on you may end up setting your own ec aside which is not good.  Also the consider the fact that it can be negated, you face a simon the magicain and your in trouble.

Throw in raider's camp too if you have plans on capturing...also add in king merodach-baladan. He is a staple with babs imo...Also...I would take out guardian for harvest time. Just in case you get the hand and he/she has no souls out...

There are basically 2 "kill" cards, He is Risen and No Need for Spices. These can be recurred twice using Moses and Elders and Consider the Lillies. Just realized I left A Child is Born off the list!  :o I have considered throwing in Scarlet Line and/or Joseph before Pharaoh. However, this deck has done well without many kill cards because of the recursion and due to the fact that there is usually not much defense left to deal with. Head of Gold, He Is Risen, Holy Grail and A Child Is Born usually do a good job of wiping out my opponent's defense. I usually do not have a problem with setting my own guys aside, since I usually limit the number of heroes out if possible or just wait until after I attack to put down my evil characters. Also, if I play a black defense I always save Angel of the Lord or Grapes for Simon.

to increase the potency of your offense add
Faithfull servent
AOC promo
Transfiguration
Moses

drop
Burial - its okay but very slim chance of winning a game or affecting outcome
Falling Away- deck is to slow for this to be realy viable
Spirit as a Dove- inaitive buster,
Golden Calf-with moses its counter productive

NNFS is okay but i have been more and more hestiant to play with it, you face a pg defense and thats just what they want, confusion, dou, self capture, it still is currently in my white deck but my strategy does not revolve around it.  Becarefull on relying on recursion for a kill, for example i have used moses and elders to recurr TGT, or having it being negated all hurts your # of capable rescues.

Let me try and show you another way,
SOG/NJ = 2
AOTL/CM or fa = 0
leaving you with 3 rescues to make

Best circumstances
NNFS=1
HE is risen =1
consider the liles =1
Moses and elders =1
ACIB =1
total 5
at best this dosen't include your oppantes defense which will most likely stop 2-3 blocks.   IF they stop 3 and they have a big charecter left you're in trouble.

I am definately going to redo this deck as it stands right now, but not sure about getting rid of the dominants. A great redemption player once told me to think hard and long before cutting out dominants. He backed up his statement by pointing to all the top decks at nationals. All the top decks used 8-10 dominants.
