Dang it, you beat me to it by like 3 minutes.

I like these cards new cards.

I've wanted a card like Ashtaroth Worship for a WHILE. With so much recur in the game, it's nice to just clean out their entire discard pile during your prep phase.

Absolutely going in most of my decks.

Gathering Angel is decent. Ashtaroth Worship looks like a powered up version of Murmuring (The multi colored evil enhancement that removes a discard pile from the game), which could be really powerful against Isaiah and a few other offenses (and some defenses). Angelic Guidance could get me to play a mono-silver offense again.

I think it's looking like an interesting starter deck so far.

I'm really not a fan of Angelic Guidance, Aka (W3 on steroids).

I do like the Evil Enhancement. Think it's a good card for the game.

Also, what's up with the wording on Ashtaroth worship?

Couldn't it have just said: "Discard a good enhancement or remove all cards in a discard pile from the game."

I'm guessing since "remove from the game" is the actual ability they wanted to keep the entire wording of it in one phrase, rather than splitting it before and after the target.

I totally agree with you (because it's far more fluid-sounding that way) but from a "we're teaching people how to play the game with these decks" point of view, I can see where the actual wording would be enticing.

And Magic is profit fueled and focused. Redemption is player focused and hopefully won't force a massive card but right befor Nats amongst the players who wish to be competitive.

Redemption is already walking down the MtG tournament trail with the top cut T1 at Nationals. Adding a few cards won't be any more jarring than that. What it will do is make the "top players" have to think outside their current box while prepping for Nats, which shouldn't be too hard for them.

Jmbeers · « **Reply #332 on:** May 10, 2013, 07:50:10 PM »

Top Cut has been something the players have argued for for quite some time now.

Okay, I'm concerned about Ashtaroth Worship...and I'm very surprised everyone likes it. It is now very easy to wipe a player of all offense, regardless of what they are playing. I would like it better if it did not remove heroes, but removing everything in discard...as a territory class? That's going to break down many of the offenses out there. I know that we want to slow certain ones down, but this is indiscriminate and total. More time-outs coming, folks.

Guidance is also not a card I'm a fan of so far. Looking at hand pre-battle is an amazingly powerful ability, and doing so with a TC, then being able to search out a silver card, not just enhancement? This only boosts decks that run multiple angel abuse (like, say, AUtO).

Warrior_Monk · « **Reply #334 on:** May 10, 2013, 09:03:06 PM »

Ashtaroth Worship is absurd. I'm not sure if I love it or hate it.

I think the other two are fine, but yeah, Guidance is good. I feel like a lot of people won't find space for it though.

If you can find space for WWW, you can find room for guidance. They are almost the same card, except that Guidance isn't limited to searching for characters, and it doesn't protect them from dominants (but if you want the protection from dominants, just search for WWW with guidance, then play WWW to get the character you want).

lightningninja · « **Reply #336 on:** May 10, 2013, 11:42:36 PM »

Guidance is the new boost to FBTN.

RTSmaniac · « **Reply #337 on:** May 10, 2013, 11:48:30 PM »

Angelic Guidance: easier In the Clouds abuse in T2 which I'm looking foward to.

Ash Worship: prob wont see play in T1 as much as T2 with Abe's Kid abuse. I love when my opponent has no GE to recur when I play that card.

Gathering Angel: Seems more of a T2 card as well. Maybe a new addition to Kirks Gates of Hell/Heal deck?

There are some fun combos with this guy. Especially if he's wearing Horses.

<3 Legion of Angels.

One of the rare cases where having no SA is a GREAT thing.

Always a fan of new Roman stuff, and this has some SRS power.

I have a feeling RTSManiac or Captain Kirk will find a way to break this one.

I couldn't decide between good and evil so how about this?

Fun. I've wanted cards that represent people who did both good and evil for a while now. I hope we can get a Saul card like this in the future.
