With cards like David's Harp (P), Love Righteousness and Boaz' Offspring that it might be OK to go down to 9 Heroes. Kinsman Redeemer is definitely the weakest Hero in the line up. Josh P pointed that out on Discord too.

That's a really solid play! Temple Dedication didn't make the cut because I don't have a lot of musicians, but there are definitely enough to take advantage of it. Seeing the value with BotL makes it even more tempting.

Of course you do have Storehouse which could get them I suppose. Maybe Preparing to Return as well.  I might cut S. Mercs for Naaman. But that's just me.

I strongly considered BotC but it didn't feel necessary since there are other cards that perform that same function which work on turn 1. My plan for the offense it to use David ASAP and leave him as meek to power Obed and Jesse, so I don't really want to bounce him. Subsequent rescues will usually involve other Heroes. But I can definitely see someone using a game plan that wants to use David over and over, in which case having more reliable ways to bounce him would be necessary.

Interesting....I didn't think about the possibility of leaving David meek to keep Obed and Jesse triggered. I think that's a smart play. I've gotten so used to continually bouncing him in my Ruth deck and didn't really think about the benefit of continually keeping Obed and Jesse triggered.
