I'm running almost this exact offense right now haha! So maybe we can help each other out a little, I'm not happy with mine, but I keep tightening it up (my defense is brown, which makes it kinda hard to run).

I would highly recommend His Name is John and Trumpet Blast:
---Golgotha kills the pre-block ignore power of this offense style
---Nazareth kills the searching power of Nebby (and others)
Temple Priests negate sites (like CP, which protects both the aforementioned sites)
---His Name is John grants Temple Priests (and other temple priests) CBN status
---Play Trumpet Blast to discard their Golgotha (and blockers) CBN

So the point of the offense is to band Ahimilek into battle and return the EC, what do you do if they band?

Late post sorry, but I know you run your decks for months so not sure if you still are using this or something similar. Your strategy revolves around banding I ahimelek to return their ec. So you need to make this work everytime. That means, stop banding, stop initiative, and have David down for cbn. You only have one David, I would double that. I think your teal heroes need to have better initiative to play. This might not be your playing style, but might want to look into adding some more heroes that can benefit from being banded in. Are you having trouble matching those five purple ends to your heroes? I can see that clogging your hand, or using them for I Am Grace. I know how you love Great Image, but I would add Nebby's Pride x2 instead.
