Also, I'd cut it down a bit. I'd drop Faith as a Mustard Seed. I'd also consider dropping Unholy Writ, but it's really up to you.

Also, I like GoYS over Falling Away any day.

Concerning deck size, I think 52 is a fine number ;) I would maybe drop divination for achan's sin though, achan's is important, especially with all the FBTN going around. As for GoYS and FA, it's personal preference. That's totally up to you.

Post by: jbeers285 on November 15, 2012, 05:48:18 AM: I personally would play words of discouragement or even tkhorses over confusion.

Just my preference

Id also consider dropping plot, divination and confusion to add Peter 4D coin and TGT

TAS and uzzah may be good adds as well depending on what you drop

Post by: Captain Falcon on November 15, 2012, 12:24:25 PM: I would really try to get an Uzzah and TAS in there and keep plot. Confusion isn't as important as having an interrupt play next, although it could be nice first turn.
