Would like to run Coliseum, but it tosses too many of the GEs

Honestly.. this seems pretty subpar compared to other competitive options out there (white/clay variants, Throne, even Flood Survivors). Doesn't look like enough speed to keep up without the T/C searches that were a part of the original versions of The Deck. Also, Humble is in every deck now as it should be, and defenses in general are just way more capable than when the traditional style of FBTN was dominant. Maybe with a solid anti meta defense it could be ok, but I think it would still be 2nd tier at best.

I was trying to make a build that didn't use Sam/David/Ahimelek/etc, but maybe that's just the way to go this year

In that case, I would cut the red aspect and try more silver like Wrath Angels/Angelic Guidance/Birth Foretold. I also think Ruth/Judges has some potential.
