So yeah, any comments or suggestions? I've played with it a few times and it seems to work well.
Couple Comments:
1. On the original band, I can get out Angel at Shur to get out Captain, then I also band in Jacob who bands to captain. So I can typically win that first battle.
2. It's been getting out the cards I need pretty fast, and once I get them it's hard to stop. Simeon runs you down, and then I can reset with "A New Beginning" and try to get a quick one with captain or even Jacob+Captain.

Nice, I like it, if you say its fast enough then I think you're right that you could steal some souls at the beggining, but I don't think it has enough enhancement support to survive into the later portions. Hidden Treasures seems like it would be a really good fit to play both Creation and ANB.
-
No Leviathan with that reset?
-
you need a way to recur creation after ANB like jubilee or something
-
No Leviathan with that reset?
Can't find it. Ask RDT about that. ;) hehe
Yeah, well the thinking is one with creation, one with the second seal, and one after the reset. Any advice as to cards that I could put in for extra battle-winning capabilities?
Hidden Treasures is a good thought, helps to clear out their deck too. I'll try that.
Koala, that's a thought.... I'll try Jubiliee. Any thoughts as to what to take out for it?
-
you need a way to recur creation after ANB like jubilee or something
agreed. You could even play Jubilee on Jacob before battle.
-
jubliee is exodus
-
Yeah, it's not Genesis. But it could still be a good addition to the deck. Asher could be too to recur my negates.
Any advice as how to stop Grapes of Wrath? That cards completely stops this. :-\
-
interesting
you could add BBH and Babby's
-
How does that stop Grapes of Wrath?
-
ug i dont even know wat all these things are, lol wat does "creation of the world" do? And I am a noob and is is a dumb question wouldnt it be stupid to be relieing on a card that could be at the bottom of ur deck?
-
It takes all heroes with a "Genesis" scripture reference and bands them into battle.
-
How does that stop Grapes of Wrath?
best way is to not let them come into battle. I know that does not help, but consider putting in a reuben's torn clothes for a cheap easy ls rescue once you know wut brigade they are playing
-
what if they play are card that negates banding?

what if they play are card that negates banding?
then u r very sad...
-
Like what? I have captured ark and Destruction for that very reason (Household Idols), they're only other hope is a cbn card.
