Obviously, there's a few problems with this deck, first of which being that if I use a Plot, I'm out. This deck was thrown together in maybe half an hour for a game between Wild Bill, Hobbit, my dad, and myself, and it did pretty well (although a Mayhem made me lose [dad...], or at least severely hurt me). Defense needs help. I really like the offense. I use King Rehoboam to start a side battle and nuke somebody's territory with Sammy's Sac, and then Meeting the Messiah and Judge's Seat like crazy to get any stragglers. It's really fast with Gifts, MtM, and The Gen Widow.
Suggestions?
-
Needs more ANB.
-
So your goal is to nuke everyone's defense in multi?
-
On a more serious note, if you're worried about ripping plots, you should try to fit a Haman's Gallows or two in.
-
I'm going to put in 5x Taking Egypt's Wealth in my deck just to try and steal a plot and use it, so your deck is illegal for the next round.
-
I've always felt that TEW is underatted, especially with people more inclined to play Plots this year I may have to play gold and include a few.
-
Aww. I looked up Gallows and it doesn't let anyone rip plots. Guess I'll go Gold/Gold so I can play Spreading Mildew.
Too bad High Places says evil, so I can't play TEW off it ;_;
-
I only plan on destroying one person's defense. Preferably the person to my left. The Darkness is a problem though...
For changes, how about:
OUT:
The Woman at the Well x2
King Zedekiah x3
Dungeon of Malcaiah x3
IN:
Zaccheus x2
Zeresh x2
Haman x2
Haman's Gallows x2
-
I'm confused as to why you're taking out the person on your left.... Wouldn't the right make more sense?
-
No. The person to my left may draw some defense, so that way I don't leave him undefended. Using Rehoboam and Sammy's Sac, it should be the person to my right. Both ways work, really.
-
You'd need like 34 evil characters in your deck to even have a chance at drawing another one, who does that? :-*
-
something to take out Chorizin?
-
Sammy's Sac will do it if it's occupied, which isn't too much of a problem in multi, since people like protecting lost souls.
-
How can you defend for your opponent's when you have just taken out their whole defense, hopefully gotten a lost soul, then have at least 2 more rounds before you get another crack at the "weak" player? You need to be able to block for them. For example, The Darkness with an Uzzah or Gomer in it.
-
^ This is a good idea.
So:
OUT:
King Manasseh
King Amon x2
IN:
The Darkness x2
Uzzah
Look good?
-
I'd go Darkness x1 and Uzzah x2 plus maybe a Deceiving Spirit.
