Job's three friends (Revised)

3/3 Grey Male Human Evil Character
All heroes who are the only heroes of their brigade in play are returned to territory.  Cannot be negated.

(same verse)
(sort of a reverse Garden Tomb idea, and something to give Job a moment of pause)

Under-powered.
I am not talking about T2 unless I am explicitly talking about T2. Also Mayhem is fine now somehow!

How about now?  This current version was my first idea, but it seemed a little too powerful at first.

I like it, but Brown probably doesn't need another splash/standalone. They have plenty.

I'd make them black or gray.
Press 1 for more options.

I don't have a color preference.  I only used brown (and 3/3) because that was the original card color.  I'm thinking Gray now, which could use some help, and matches the color of Job's wife, the other EC from Job.  Thanks!

Cool idea, definitely powerful with the CBN, especially early game or maybe late game.  I'm questioning why Job's Friends would singlehandedly stop Job literally every time he tried to enter battle...  I'm not quite getting the Biblical "sense" of this card.  In my opinion.

What I don't understand is why are they always clumped together, they each had names and long separate discourses to Job, I think they should be 3 different characters

They are not technically "defeating" him, as in trying to harm or discard him.  They are causing him to accomplish very little in his attempts to rescue others or get closer to God, which makes sense to me.  They thought they were being good friends and helping him, when in truth they were a source of discouragement and confusion to him, as his wife was.  Job's wife is even worse to Job (gamewise), as she makes it so that he CAN be captured or discarded.  This represents accurately (in my opinion) how alone Job was, or thought he was, especially before Elihu showed up later to come to his defense.

A blue Elihu hero will likely be the next card I make :)

yeah the shortest man in the Bible should get his own card.
if you're wondering who that is it is Bildad, the Shuhite (pronounced "shoe-height")
