First thing I noticed was the lost soul choices.  You're not using site lockout at all, so the site lost souls and herod's temple are not needed.  I would definitely use female only LS and NT only LS instead.  If you use just one site, Hormah would be best.  But shuffler LS doesn't work well with sites anyway.  I'd add a couple more evil cards too, but overall its pretty balanced.  Thanks for sharing.

the defense is too small especially for black...i would include philly garrison for standalone heroes.

Trumpet Blast > Scapegoat > Guilt Offering
not in a deck that doesn't have Joshua, IMO. he has plenty of battle enders.

and Cov. with Phineas>Melchezideck's Blessing.

oh, and I would put in a Holy Unto the Lord for Jehoram. it's an awesome combo, and with Amon, you can get an evil enhancement back to block.

get rid of Grain Offering for Filling Z's temple
Guilt Offering for trumpet blast
and
The Sabbath for Pentecost

I'd say swap the gold for purple but that's just me....

you don't understand what i wanna do with gold mixed with teal.
gold is a good brigade i'v chosen for combos

i suggest taking a closer look at Training in Righteousness if i were you

so you can use both. so what? and what "combos" ? I see nothing in here that could pass as a combo.

Other than banding i don't see any "combos" and Training is useful in theory, but as soon as the character comes back it usually get martyred

decided to go almost all teal but left moses in and go for a Z.Temple offense (suprisingly) and sadducee defense

What is Moses possibly going to accomplish by himself? If you want a standalone ftbn hero then go with TSA, he also takes care of Teal's lack of good NT heroes.

hmm, true
nice suggestion, LN

well if i used taking egypt's wealth i can take a good enhancment from opponent's hand and use training in rightousness before the taking of egypt's wealth and when hero comes back i make that hero a gold/teal/brigade of enhancment, and use their own battle winner against them like if i was to take aocp i'd use it against them in the hopes of rescuing a lost soul

Holy grail is also a great card to combine with taking egypt's wealth

cool, I'd take the enhancement while somebody is set aside, so that when they come back they can use it. just a thought.

exactly wraith

and adot
no, there's a differance bbetween holy grail and training in righteousness

holy grail only changes a evil character to a hero but TiR adds brigades to a single brigaded hero

like say you have a gold 3/3 hero and set them aside with training in righteousness
they come back 2 added brigades to them and are able to use enhancments they couldn't cause the colors won't match until you make them a differant brigade or the same brigade

Does the combo work?  Yes.  Could it be fun?  Yes.  Is it practical?  idk.

it would be quite useful in t2, since you only have to do it once. I might try it this weekend.
