I just trashed my Angel / Genesis / Assyrian deck after 6 years and I am making a garden tomb deck with a pg magician defense any helps?
-
Well, make sure it has TGT and at least one TGT hero. ;)
You should probably include at least Mary, Mother of James, Salome, Mary Magdalene and Joanna for the CBN band (and their respective cool abilities). I personally also use John (the starter deck one that negates evil character abilities) since he's purple and can use AoCP.
I can't really help with the magician defense as apparently I suck at building defenses, but definitely use Magic Charms and Divination.
-
yeps i have that but i need a divination... i'll get one tommorrow probably
-
I no have (if you were going to get it from me)
-
I would go back to blue/silver with palegreen/crimson defense with a spash of Brown (King Manasseh (Di) )
Chaldeans and Astrologers are king. with DoU and Belshazzar’s Banquet. All are magicians so add in Magical Charms and Unholy Writ for Thaddeus (dont forget your confusion of mind as well).
blue silver to pull out marketplace and golgotha and abuse it with DoU and Threatened Lives.

Now imagine what you can do in T2 with 2+ Threatened lives. Blockus ad infinitum.
P.S. Yay for Latinglish!
-
Thanks for the help guyses.
-
I +1 purple and white. Except use like Mary Mother of James, Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Salome, John, James son of Zebedee, Matthew, Susanna, Ethiopian Treasurer. Great Faith, Aoc (regular), Sons of Thunder, He Is Risen, Words of Encouragement, Reach of Despiration, and then you have yourself a deck :) You could also make it smaller if you want to.
-
Benedictus is a must with all the new sites. If you go with purple I would also throw in faith as a mustard seed.
-
hate sites much? :)

Actually love sights and also like the TGT. However, for TGT to be effective you must be able to clear your opponent's territory; which the new sites make it very difficult to do. I was actually kind of sad to see site-lock fall by the wayside thanks to fishing boat.
-
Fishing Boat should have never granted access. Im sure they'll create some card in the new set to deal with this card. (playtester's, this means you!)

ah good catch...
-
Should also see if you can fit Asaph in there somehow since he makes Magnificat CBN.
-
why do u think mag is so good?
-
Its because RDT is great with the ladies, and theres like 3 chicks on the card!
-
Needs something to get rid of Nazareth (dumps on your deck right now).
-
Because its a battle winner that nothing protects from, it negates all character abilities so you have to have CBN banding to get around it, since it takes out immunity, and regular banding, it clears for TGT, and its easily recurable. And it becomes CBN on Asaph :)
-
I see the hooplah and i guess im easily amazed because everytime someone rescues a LS with this card I will be surprised. Im not saying the card is bad, just that i dont see it. I mean you cant go wrong with recursion right?
-
So you're suprised everytime that card rescues a lost soul? Why? You think it's an ineffective battle winner? It's unrestricted in its targetting which immediately sets it above every convert card in the game, every enhancement such as the new Red one which specifies male, or female, or human, or demon, It can be CBN under circumstances which sets it above cards like Furnace, and it negates special abilities on characters which sets it above just about everything else. The only battle winners better than it are the mass target ones, the ITB ones without restricions and the straight up CBN ones. I.E. Zeal, AoCP.
-
ANB is possibly the best battle winner in the game.
Shuffles ALL of your nooby opponent's character AND ends the battle.

So what is my deck?!?
