The offense isn’t that creative, but I think the green splash with Provisions adds a nice element. For the defense, I moved away from the dominant underdecking (Sorrow/Tiberius/VP) because of Widows of Joppa and the new Retribution soul. Abimelech is really nice, but I would like another artifact counter. Also, I was thinking about cutting Plot for a battle winner that more of my ECs could use.
Any advice would be appreciated.

I would take out mayhem, espceally with nazareth around. Switch it out for DoN or VP

With Abimelech and Shipwreck, Nazareth shouldn't be a problem. I will try that with DoN instead of Mayhem but Lampstand can be a problem.
-
Lamp stops shipwreck too.

With 5 black characters Apprehended might be a nice add, or swap for Haman's Plot, if you have trouble with bands. Also, I don't know how often you'll be able to use I Am Holy, and it seems a bit redundant with Urim and Thummim. I could see it being nice against smaller defenses but I don't know how well it would work against balanced defenses, especially in Type-1. If you find your not using I Am Holy you could cut it for a Captured Ark seeing as Nazareth won't be a problem.

You mean Abandonment right? Because Apprehended is gold.
-
Yeah, Abandonment is what I meant. Sounded right when I typed it.
-
If you keep I am Holy, I think you should add Wheel within a Wheel. I am Holy has so much more power when you have ways to recur the cards you're discarding. I would also drop Strong Angel for Jephthah.
-
Gideon has no SA, so why keep him in?

I don't think I need both Abandonment and Scattered. Maybe Seized by Rioters?

Done.
Gideon has no SA, so why keep him in?
AUTO protects him from opponents and Abimelech needs him in the discard pile to work.

Is gideon realy worth that slot, for only two other cards?

Gideon is definitely worth using. also Edict is CBN on him.
