Uzzah-killer HUZZAH!

Uzzah-killer HUZZAH!

Problem is, Uzzah is protecting them.  Unless this somehow works in the post-battle phase.

Edited to get around the fact of the protection. I didn't put a limit or cost on it since it pretty much only stops Uzzah (an OP card), Trembling Demon, BBN and SSS.

Those three all surrender initiative.

Yeah, I think you either need to add the condition of an evil character blocking or add a cost to this card, because a RA + CM combo is now a soul-winner with this card.

Also, how would this combine with Grapes or The Long Day?

I like the concept but it seems that the ability would be better served in a brigade that doesn't have a FBTN Hero (whereas Silver has 2 plus Consuming Fire), such as White.

Why? It's a covenant...

Woot! This would go in every deck I make, mainly because I attack, they block smaller, I CM my hero and get to rescue a LS(maybe the other half of a 2-liner )! The best part is if they CM me after I drop AotL, I get to rescue(assuming they had init)! Rescuing souls because of CM!

I'm fine with that. It's kind of in the theme of CM, and would perhaps encourage defenses that aren't entirely comprised of initiative characters. It'd also be good for head games, since if you block higher than the Hero it voids CoC but leaves you open.

I had it in Silver because the verse is talking about Heaven, and I don't mind another big offense Enhancement for Silver to use since it's so bad right now.

It's only broken in T2, but we'll errata it anyway.

I feel like this card is broken in ways I can't think of. I'm sure with choose the blocker, there is some broken combo you could come up with. Sounds good from what I can think of though. 

Remember it only kicks in if you lose the RA. CTB wouldn't be able to abuse it. But keep trying to think of ways it could be broken (and say what they are...*cough*).

Considering one of the main purposes of this card is to stop Uzzah abuse, I wouldn't say that's broken at all

What, no Brown Enhancements? If Uzzah's just a splash I say, good show sir! Use that to your advantage and get a free soul. When the potential for abuse comes from a super-broken card, the check isn't broken.

Basically, the whole point of this card is to make it more difficult to just splash Uzzah into any deck and get a fairly reliable easy block (2 with Torment, 5 in T2). If you find yourself being overrun by CTB'd Uzzahs from your territory, stop splashing so much Uzzah or use some Brown Enhancements.

Wouldn't you just win anyway if you CTB'd a lower numbered character they had no Enhancements for?
