Blessings all.
I'll post the 1st tek advice for now as I could not think of anything else atm. Feel free to post your advice (not tips for good trading) as we have a separate thread for them.
1. NEVER include apostrophes in your trading thread title/URL as we have had unresolved issues where one cannot open the thread nor a shared URL/link. It may work using Tapatalk but not the forums. If you just posted a new thread with an apostrophe in the title, simply 'make a copy' of your thread without any apostrophe in the title/subject, then delete the 'defective' thread.

Thank you, I saw it on some cards in the Israel's Rebellion and the Roots cards that came with. I was so confused. I was thinking bounce was equivalent to withdraw and toss was just discard, which felt pointless. Thank you for elaborating on the toss ability.

More Ideas
Darkness After Christ Curse 2/2 Pale Green/Gray
Identifier Mourning for Creator, Darkness
Curse: Following a successful block with a disciple, no player may draw more than one card for the next 3 turns. Negate all search and draw abilities. Negate and discard if He Is Risen!/Stone Rolled Away is played. Enhancement: All Heroes in play decrease 2/2 but none are discarded if */0 or less, capture to owner's Land of Bondage. Ability cannot be used if John, the Beloved is in battle or a Mary is in opponent's territory.
verse: Matthew 27:45
The Last Supper/My Body, My Blood Dominant/Artifact
Identifier Final meal, Disciples, Jesus, Salvation
Dominant: Place in territory. All Gospel Heroes protected from discard and capture abilities and Lost Souls removed from all sites for 2 turns. On turn 3, discard. Disciples protected from conversion for remainder of game, except Judas Iscariot. Artifact: Defeated Human Evil Characters converted to Clay Hero. May be used twice.
Identifier Disciple, Gospel Hero, Gospel Evil Character
Hero: Search draw or Reserve for Sermon on the mount. Add to hand. Protected from discard, banish and capture abilities. If defeated, returns to territory as Evil Character. Cannot be interrupted, negated, prevented or redirected. Evil Character: Search draw or Reserve for Thirty Pieces of Silver/I Have Sinned/Blood Money, add to hand. Cannot block a disciple. Protected from withdraw from battle.
Verse: Luke 6:16
I will be adding to this as time goes on. Digging through the gospels to put everything together is a challenge and going to avoid contradiction.
Yes, I know every iteration of Judas Iscariot has been an evil card. The reason he is a Hero on here first is due to the fact he was a loyal follower of Christ until he no longer was. I get the scripture says in all 4 gospels that he was the one to betray Christ but at the time he was selected by Christ, none of the disciples knew then that he was to be a traitor later on. It's only mentioned because each book is an eyewitness account of the events and it was a detail they all included after the fact of all that happened.

Toss is a mechanic that allows/forces you to play enhancements differently. Instead of using their ability, you discard them and decrease an opposing character X/X where X is equal to the strength of the enhancement that is tossed.

Do you see anything else that could be modified to increase effectiveness of the deck?
That's aside from it being 62 cards currently. Only have at that amount to comfortably suffice 4 brigades in the deck without having too many useless cards in hand.
