You don't need Harvest Time, Following Demons, Captured by Assyria, or Holy unto the Lord.Any specific reason for those, or any of the other cards that you'd replace with different ones?
the only thing left to do is to try it. see how it worksHonestly, though, I've never heard of having 3 characters and only 1 enhancement of a brigade (not counting stand-alones like PotW/EN/etc). My gut tells me I should have more silver enhancements so that it's not a requirement to band, or in case Michael and Gabriel run into trouble if I send them out solo.
Yeah, I didn't notice that, Was focusing more on the offence. Don't put in Nails ;)Thought so ;)
COve with Phin protects from CM though - Alter of incense doesn't.True. So is it better to have 5 somewhat protected or 3 very protected?
3 very protected.Switched back to Phinehas.
Pale Green Evil Characters: 3
Orange Evil Characters: 5
Pale Green/Orange Evil Characters: 1
Pale Green Evil Enhancements: 6
Orange Evil Enhancements: 3
I guess I can see what you mean. I might take out Slave Trade and put the orange capture enhancement back in. Would that balance it more?
Also, one of the Pale Green guys can use Orange, and at least one of the Orange guys can use Pale Green. So, in reality, I have like 6 that can use PG and 6 that can use Orange, some in the same card ;)
Thanks for the thoughts about the defense. How does the offense look to you? Do you agree with everyone else that I should splash in some Silver? If so, do you know how I can do it without breaking the Teal half (that happened when I tried putting Silver in earlier)?
My objective is always the same - To win in such a way that my opponent can do very little about it. CBN style offences, Pre-block ignore, play first combo's etc.So I know TGT is good for pre-block ignore, but what are the best brigades for CBN and "play first" offenses?
I think you need a FBTN character to pull in with Jehoiada's Strength...
...Silver splases well with teal because of its FBTN power.
I think Book of the Covenant may be something you should consider. It will allow you to have both of your covenants active at the same time.This is the best idea I've seen so far for this deck.
Another idea to consider is making this a green/teal deck by using Zecheriah, Jeremiah, and Haggai instead of Ezra, Melchidezek, and Ahimaaz. You would then add Hidden Treasures and one or two green Enhancements and take out Jehoidia's Strength, The Silver Trumpets, and one other card of your choosing. Provisions would be great as the green Enhancement since it would make the deck a little bit faster and also give you a battle that will most likely be easy for you to win. Some other great green Enhancements to choose from would be Two Bears, Plague of Frogs, and Benaiah Snatches a Spear.
I think it would be better at 56.Any suggestions for what to cut out?
Keep mayhem it is a great card to get your cards out faster if you get a bad draw. Plus it can hurt speedIf I keep Mayhem I'll have to take out 5 cards rather than 4. Also, I'm trying to keep this as much to cards I own (so Lampstand, BotC, Mayhem, and others will be a problem) since I want this to be an IRL deck, not just a deck on RTS. However, I will add it back in and see what other comments I get.
I would take out the five to keep mayhem. Its a must have!!!!Lol, if you say so ;)
I disagree that Mayhem is a must have, especially when you're going to want to leave Lampstand active for a majority of the time.Ooh, you're right. I forgot about that.
Warning: Against the grain advice below. Thread lightly.*gasp* What an interesting idea! I may just have to try it out. Thanks! ^_^
until i block with philistine priest...one of my favorite playsDo you have a better suggestion for what 3 cards to take out of the deck?

Where is urim and thurim. It needs to go inI ran out of spaces for it. Plus, being able to see your opponent's hand isn't that helpful.
@RTSmaniac: First, the whole point of the defense was to be Magicians(theres still still some in there) , yet you've taken out half of them. Second, there's no target for Worshiping Demons(end the battle cant be negated) . Third, why bring in crimson? nebby wages of sin desecrated the temple (which can be played on astrologers too) is nuts basically another auto block with nebby oh yea add uzzah and holy of holiesMay I ask exactly what was wrong with the deck as it was that requires such drastic changes?
I was loking at the green enhansmenst I I wous wondering why you do not have to bears. I think it shofils a eveil charicter of each evil brigade in play.With the way my defense is now (before RTSmaniac's changes), the likelihood of me having to shuffle at least one of my own characters was high (I have 2 main brigades, plus Astrologers is also crimson).
Um, if you read the first post, I said I wasn't trying to make a speed deck, just a fun teal(and green) and magicians/orange deck.
I think you should cut it to 50, add in pentecost and first fruits..... oh wait But in all honesty as fond as I am of Teal, 4 battle winners is simply not enough in todays metagame. I think you need a FBTN character to pull in with Jehoiada's Strength, and as fond as I am of Scapegoat I don't see its purpose when you have 3 other interupts in the deck, I think you'll have troubles getting through any solidly built defense. Look at doing multiple colors - Silver splases well with teal because of its FBTN power.RDT
I would leave Phineas - He's a great character - Cut Joiada - you don't have anything worthwhile for him to search for - If you do decide on silver in the end - go with Striking Herod (A great interupt+kill) I would also consider Something to take care of demons - I like three nails..... But otherwise Victory is a good option too.
Almost any advice you get from RDT is going to be very good. You might want to think about this one a little more though.BrianGabe
Eli is a must have if you're going to go the Lampstand route. He searches for it and you need to be able to get it out ASAP for the strategy to work.Hrmm, do you have a suggestion for who to take out to put Eli back in?
Three years ago I played a play first deck.
Right, that's what I figured :PThree years ago I played a play first deck.
Browarod,
This is an example of what I mean by "1.) What is the goal of my deck?"
