Post by: CJSports on March 10, 2011, 09:57:08 PM: Take out lots of offense and add benedictus. Then switch that offense you took out with a demon defense. I find this works much better. Chariots is key so you want lampy. I say this so towards the end you can d/c heros with the generous widow. Eventually you won't need battle winner enhancement to win because they won't have anything to block you with. I would also suggest Goliath's armor just to slow down disciples.

Post by: Carl deuty on March 11, 2011, 08:15:26 AM: yeah, me and crash have kinda been working on an abom deck, playtesting it and what not. We have found that the offense is pretty good even without much ,if any, use of abom. Maybe, put in a search to play off of hur or something. Isn't Antiochus the bomb? He is a straight beast, he singlehandedly beat down a musicians offense I was trying.

Usually Hur only hurts me. I find Feast of Trumpets with Gifts up is usually enough. I cant ever throw in Philetus. Had any success?
