Fearful Spy
3/2 generic WC Brown
Once per game if a Philistine or Amelikite is in play holder may discard all heros in play except Judges. Opponent may set them aside for one turn instead and Remove  all Fearful Spies in play from the game. Hero's in set aside areas are protected from discard this turn.
Numbers 13:33

Well how does it look I think its a bit to overpowerd any suggestions on how to make it better.

You can spell Philistine but not spy? Teasing. I like it.

Whoa! I had a major brain moment. Fixed 

My question is: Why would anyone choose to set their heroes aside rather than discarding them? Sure, you've probably got Persian Presidents and stuff, but still, I would think being able to get all your heroes back next turn would be much better than having them all be discarded.

Like if I had Job the invincible out I could choose the discard ability to kill all of my opponents heroes

Hero's what are protected from Discard?

I think it's a fill in the blank. I'm going to go with friends. Hero's friends are protected from discard. So if the Hero is David, then Prince Jonathan and Ittai would be protected. If the Hero is your Nationals custom hero, well...I'll stop myself before I say something hurtful...

I'm still trying to figure out what an Amelikite is. Is it like an Amalekite?
