changed it from a SamSam to a Sam FBTNB/Samaria and dropped it down to 56

I like the defense... I think? haha! Let me explain why that isn't a slam:
Over the years I've played several decks that just didn't "click" with me. But Brown has ALWAYS been my favorite defensive color, and so I feel really awkward to not understand Gates of Samaria decks, but so far that's the case.
Here's what I'm getting at: How do the Samaria actually work into the plan of this deck? Are you planning to use them on Heroes? If on Evil Characters, do you plan to kill them in territory? Omri is the only way to play it in battle currently... I'm just trying to see how people use these decks well, I know it can be done. :)
-
Foreign Sword is a must with FBTNB. I'd cut Counsel of Abigail for it.
-
The way I use them is to hurt my opponent by killing off his Heroes in Territory.
-
That makes sense, especially with the majority of the Meta offense dying with a single Samaria, lol.
-
looks a little light on drawing (not too bad though).
Mustering for war could be an easy add. If you want to expand on speed a bit more you could add in Gifts (you could use another art to use with Uzzah anyway), along with Hur (who can potentially generate a soul, and Aaron bands to him), and possibly feast of trumpets (it also can generate a soul, and you have plenty of green to use it with).
I'm not 100% sure what you would take out for all of that though.
Maybe: Trumpet and Sword, Stiff Necked, and Ira (you already have two other great FBTNB guys).
The last thing I would recommend is to switch out Jacob for Simeon (Wa).
Your deck looks pretty strong all in all, theses are just suggestions.

I only see two arts and one is discarded after use and I really wouldn't suggest discarding Chariots. Maybe throw in captured ark or holy grail.

As I mentioned in another post of mine, I believe my prophet/amgel w/ touch of FBTN, that my only opponent really right now plays a disciple/babylonian deck. Chariots is only a insurance policy against his great image. In one game I had writ out the whole game but never needed to use it, so again another policy card as I call it.
