Title: Revelation Priests
Post by: Ironisaac on July 10, 2017, 08:54:21 PM: 4   Dutiful Priest
1   The Four Living Creatures (RoJ)
1   Every Tribe (RoJ)
1   Priests of Christ (RoJ)
3   Priests of Christ
1   Melchizedek (CoW)
2   Polycarp (RoJ)
2   The Angel of the Winds
2   Faithful Witness (RoJ)

2   Gabriel meets Zecharias
4   Zeal for the Lord
4   Gifts and Offerings
2   First Fruits
2   Faith of Joshua

2   Eternal Covenant
2   Heavenly Temple (RoJ)

1   Grapes of Wrath
1   Guardian of Your Souls (RoJ)
1   Son of God (J)
1   The Second Coming
1   Angel of the Lord ( C)

1   Three Woes (RoJ)
3   Ram's Horn (Pi)
2   Ark of the Covenant (RoJ)

main idea behind this deck is to get three woes and ram's horn out so you can go in with dutiful priests with cbi battle winners. polycarp and faithful witnesses are in there for Heavenly temple/ guardian ammo. feedback welcome!

I'd also probably drop one of the Gabe Meets Zecs and one of the Zeals to add 2x Covenant of Prayer. Then have some Trumpet Blasts in the Reserve. Another thing might be to put one of the Ram's Horns in the Reserve so CoP can grab it (to activate it on the next turn).

Thanks for the advice!
