Please advise on which Type 1 casual deck to take to 100 cards.

OK, sometimes a couple players here want to play Type 2.  But I don't have a Type 2 deck.  I have 18 casual decks though.

I thought that a good compromise might be if I take one of my casual decks to 100 cards.  This would allow me to have 2 of most cards.  It would also need to be evenly divided between offense and defense.  Here are the decks I am currently considering, which already balanced offence and defense.

Blue Genesis/Crimson (mostly Babylonians) - Currently a 70 card Type 1 deck (top choice right now because it is already 70 cards)
Green (mainly prophets)/Black (Sadducees and a couple Philistines) - Currently a 63 card Type 1 deck.
Angels and Pale Green (mainly Assyrians) - Currently a 63 card Type 1 deck.
Gold heroes (mix) and Brown (mix) - Currently a 63 card card Type 1 deck.
Teal (mix) and Orange - Currently a 63 card Type 1 deck.
Purple (mix) and Gold (mainly Egyptians) - Currently a 63 card Type 1 deck.
White NT (mostly females) and Sites/Splash - Currently a 56 card Type 1 deck.
Super Banding WC FBTN, Super Banding Defense - Currently a 50 card Type 1 deck.

Like I said, which of these could maybe be competitive in Type 2 at 100 cards, but still be legal for Type 1 play at the same time?  Thanks.

The Crimson half of the first one would fare well, but Genesis gains no benefit from 100+

Again, the Sads benefit from 100+, but not the Prophets.

Neither Silver nor Pale Green benefits from 100+

Gold and Brown are both moderately improved by 100+, and as long as it's got Watchful Servant x2 it's a good candidate.

Teal does not benefit from 100+, but Orange does.

Neither Purple nor Gold benefit from 100+.

Neither N.T. White nor Splash benefits from 100+.

Neither FbtNB nor CBNB benefit from 100+.

In summary, I'd do the Gold/Brown deck. Plenty of Generics, Watchful Servant, and both the offense and defense benefit from duplicate characters.
I am not talking about T2 unless I am explicitly talking about T2. Also Mayhem is fine now somehow!

Thanks.  Right now I'm leaning toward Green Prophets + Sites and Phillies (105 card Type 1 OR Type 2), or Gold/Brown as you said.  As far as the financial cost, I think the cards I would want to double up on for Gold/Brown will cost me less money too.

OOPS!  I totally forgot one of my casual decks!

What about a 100+ card Red Banding Warriors and Grey (mix) Capture?

That'd be an interesting challenge... try to win both both T1 and T2 at a tournament with the same deck.  :P

Little benefit from 100+. Spy is the only good generic Red Hero.

I was thinking this myself.  If it weren't for Brederic I could probably do it :)
