Title: Offense thought
Post by: jbeers285 on July 02, 2012, 12:00:28 AM

Considering using TGT and 6 characters
Plus Simon the zealot
Lydia
Matthew
Thomas
Both Centurions
Moses


Enhancements would be
A soldiers prayer
AoCP
Consider the Lillie's
The red on tht band all heroes
Bravery of David
Words of encouragement
He is risen
My Lord and My God
Reach of desperation
Transfiguration
Centurion Proclamation

Any you think I should add or take out

For Red enhancements, I'd just use David's Triumph & Mustering for War. A Soldier's Prayer is probably unnecessary.

It's never, under any circumstances, ok to have more Enhancements than characters. Most successful decks use hardly any Enhancements at all, and at most have close to a 2:1 Character:Enhancement ratio.

From my count, he has 13 heroes and 11 enhancements.  I assume "6 characters" refers to the 6 TGT heroes.

So would u say add more heroes to make that ratio or eliminate some enhancements to and have about 20 offense cards total?

That would leave 16 for defense/forts/arts???

Ah, I see it now. You're kind of all over the place with that build. You need to get rid of a lot of the Enhancements and some of the characters, in addition to adding Pentecost and First Fruits.

I have been playing gardensciples heavy on disciples but I was thinking of trying to twist it slightly I thought playing Peter, Simon the Zealot and the centurions gave me enough red characters to justify maybe 2 red enchantments then I'd play the TGT Girls with words of encouragement (maybe spirit as a dove) and he is risen, Consider the Lillie's
My Lord and my God, AoCP, reach of desperation, Pentecost.

Mat and tom for the draw or recursion

Do you think it's to spread out with characters and enhancements to be effective?

Far too spread out. You can do White, White/Purple, Purple/Red, Purple or even White/Silver, but White/Red/Purple is too much.
