Counsel of Abigail is a great battle winner/interrupt for OT purple. I'd take out a couple Royal Parades for that.

Not that my opinion is worth much, but your attempt at site lock will be more frustrating for you than for your opponent. They look great on paper but usually set up to slow for you to win a tourney and usually end up being just effective enough to time out a game. Especially in the site colors you have chosen.

I would just add more black and purple and just beat your opponent in the battle field (Like I do to Gabe, Hobbitt, Emjaybee, anyone named Alstead, Everytribe and anyone else north of Missouri).  ::)

Fallen Warrior is very effective for initiative. You should have a couple of them. A couple of Ashdod (FF) sites are great with a couple of great images or any favorite non-black "mess with your opponent" EE.

You have a LOT of duplicate unique characters in this deck.  I don't play T2, but I would expect that to cause hand clog, plus make you vulnerable to Water Jars.

I would agree with this statement. I would only do two of each purple king and throw in a couple more heroes, ET for one.

+1. King David & King Solomon are both good Kings.

Correct. You need to take out 2. You could put in 2 Bronze Lavers to speed it up a bit.
