Title: Teal/Gray Deck
Post by: Sean on October 27, 2009, 12:32:42 PM
I have been playing with a white and orange deck for a little while so I wanted to build a different deck.  I've never really used Zerubabbel's Temple much so I thought I'd go with that and then went with Syrians for defense to make Holy unto the Lord more advantageous for me.  What do you think of the deck as is?

Punisher
NT Only
Women Only
Can't be Prevented
Revealer
Shuffler
Wanderer
Hopper

Lamb Dominants

Christian Martyr
Destruction of Nehushtan
Mayhem

Artifacts
Lampstand of the Sanctuary
Holy of Holies
Chariot of Fire
Urim and Thummim

Sites

Damascas

Fortresses
Zerubbabel's Temple
Raider's Camp

Covenant with Phinehas

Heroes

Teal doesn't really need 3 Nails.  It can handle demons pretty easily.  However you'll probably want another Temple Artifact to make sure Filling Z's Temple works for you (Book of the Coventant?).

If this deck is for RTS you might as well use Shobach instead of Laban.

I would take out the Female LS for the Wanderer LS.  In the event of an exchange you can't rescue your own Female LS.  Not only is the Wanderer LS the most powerful LS in Redemption but it's needed in an offense that have little to no access to two of the most commonly used LSs in the game (NT and Female).  To avoid LS lockout I almost always use the Hopper LS in an OT Male offense as well.

You might consider adding another battle winner in place of Feast of Trumpets and/or Pentocost.  Burning Incense and J's Strength are both legit choices.

Took out 3Nails for Hopper and Laban for Shobach.  Wanderer was already in there.

I think your Defence needs more interupts, but thats just my preference. any small initiative character is going to walk all over you with just Horses to give you inish, and a ton of high numbered EC's. Especially if you have to use Scapegoat when you have horses down.

That's exactly what I changed after our game yesterday.  I made a few other changes as well.  Took out Burial and the 2-line to add Damascus and Can't be Prevented LS.  Also took out Feast of Trumpets for Holy of Holies.

Hah, yeah, I figured you were thinking about it, just thought I'd post it for the rest of the world, and anybody copying your deck.
