New Redemption Grab Bag now includes an assortment of 500 cards from five (5) different expansion sets. Available at Cactus website.
I haven't picked up my cards in a while, and I figure a good way to get back into the game would be to buy some new cards. I should probably pick up a FooF or RoA tin, since I don't have anything from those sets yet.So here's where I need your help. I have no intentions of using strategies like civilizations, Genesis, musicians, etc. That's not how I roll; I try my best to build decks that are as far from the norm as possible. Which tin(s) from FooF/RoA have the fewest strategy-specific cards? I would probably prefer a RoA tin, since, if I remember correctly, they contain a Priests pack whereas the FooF tins don't (if I'm wrong about that, then I guess it doesn't really matter to me which kind of tin I get).I'm just trying to save myself the trouble of reading ~200 card abilities, so if you could help me out, I would greatly appreciate it.
Secondly, can you give us an example of cards you have used in decks past? Might give us an idea what new cards might perk your interest. Cheers!

Cheers!If there's any cards with mildly obscure abilities in RoA/FooF, they would probably be of the most interest to me. Here's some of the cards/combos that I have most enjoyed in the past. (Note: some of these were complete failures, but hey, I still had fun )Winds+ChamberAbel's SacrificeVisions of Iddo the SeerCovenant KeepersPlagued with Diseases+Face of DeathAll Hope Lost+Fear of Danger+Judah's Sin+etc.Strength Revealed (too bad I never got this one to work for the purpose I planned)Great ImageWages of SinAll side battle cardsLamentation of RachelShimei's Malicious Curse+ShimeiDestruction of Athaliah (I almost scared someone with this once, hehe)Treachery Afoot+None that Breathed+Carried into Exile (I think I'll try this one again sometime)And there's a bunch of other cards I've been dying to find a use for, like Invisible Beings/Ambush, Useless Tactics, Royal Protection, etc.Hooray for weird cards!
