Abram is one of the most prominent figures of Genesis, yet he is quite mediocre in Redemption. Here's an idea help him see some play.

Abram is one of the most prominent figures of Genesis, yet he is quite mediocre in Redemption. Here's an idea help him see some play.
So by "him" you are referring to the Biblical figure, not the current card? Personally, I don't think you need to make a new Abraham, just a card like Call of Abram, except I would make it more like this:
"Search deck or discard for Abram and place on him: Discard all evil cards placed on him and convert him to Abraham. Abraham has site access and is protected from removal."
-
I actually think he needs a reprint, now he isn't worth that slot. I love both of the cards too
-
Abraham should be Green as well. He is a prophet (Genesis 20:7). You may want to change the CBN enhancements part.
His old ability negated lost souls; maybe he should negate neutral cards? That way he negates lost souls, and Hidden Treasures (which could be abused), and Naz (which stops many Genesis cards).

Didn't think of him being a prophet- I'll add that to the identifier. Unforunately, RC! doesn't allow for dual brigade cards. :(
-
How come there aren't any cards involving Abraham sacrificing Isaac? I've always thought that was a very profound theme.
-
Well, there is one really old one: Meekness of Isaac
-
Abramham would need to be WC too.
