So your basic Wc banding with a hand d/c defense is what this is supposed to be? You forgot gold shield, that thing pwns.

Not really WC banding, Israelite Archer is mainly for discarding an EC in territory and possibly banding to a hero.

Along with a small blue offense that could win a couple battles and discard some defense.

Gabriel and Amasai are just there as stand alones to discard a couple enhancements.

Then Jepthah and Holy Grail also kill off a possible 4 characters.

And Gold Shield used to be in there, but I took it and a 5 other cards to bring it down to 50. Think this deck would be better at 56? Or what should I take out for Gold Shield?

I think the deck should be 70 cards at least ;) But I doubt you agree. I would say 56 would work well if you used it to beef the defense.. Have you considered using green instead of blue as your main color? side battles+play first+ deck d/c.

Hmm, I'm up for trying out 70 cards. But I would need to add a little bit of drawing, searching, possibly a Bronze Lavar or something of the sort.

If I made it 70, think it would be better to use green instead of blue?

Yes, very yes. Using a nice big hulking hand d/c defense for 70, deck d/c green/raider/gabe offense, with alot of side battles.

Yeah, I am a green fanatic so I know such things. I paired green with gold deck d/c. My poor poor opps.
