As you can see, this deck is a slightly modified version of
this deck So I'll let you read that for most of the commentary - The changes between the two decks were actually quite simple:
Out of 2010 version:
Three Nails
Joanna (Green)
The Generous Widow
Convincing Miracle
In 2011 version:
John Earley
Joanna (White)
Benedictus
Lay Down your Life
The Joanna change is pretty much irrelevant, but I really liked the other three changes - I can't count the number of times Lay Down your Life saved me from CM. Benedictus was a no-brainer to me because of Golgatha, but I don't think I used it once to stop Golgatha. The custom hero was in because c'mon, how legit is that, and because I wanted a way to recur Benedictus, Ethan was in version 2 and 3.
I only played the deck in two tournaments this year - NC regionals where I tied for third at 5-1, and Nationals where I placed second at 9-1. I have never ripped a plot whilst playing this deck, and only strongly considered playing it twice, against John N. in the last round at Nationals, but he had AotL available so I didn't get the chance to. And then against Matt I had it, but had no way of getting a character into battle against his TGT, otherwise I would have played it there as well.
