Even though it's been awhile since I've seen the frog demons card or the juggling frogs. You could look at it from a different angle -demons- they know that they're going to hell for all eternity and in spite of all the time Christ has given the non-believers,some still won't repent and turn from their wicked ways. The demons know this and I believe that they enjoy playing games with the unbelievers lives. Knowing that some people don't like the card,here's my thoughts on why the playtesters chose it.
We will be going home to Jesus soon!

I'm not convinced the fallen don't think they can win.

No, no, no. All things considered amongst a perfectly flat plane, if it depicts a spherical earth, it simply depicts an idol. On this perfectly flat earth.

It's clearly being framed through the round window of a PERFECTLY FLAT PLANE to create the illusion of a sphere.

Then it's decided, "Depicts a Perfectly Flat Plane" will have to be added to the reg..

Assuming it works as well as it reads, and judging on the previous two chase UR dominants, $80 minimum.  If this becomes a staple like TSC, over $100.

Pre order for Three Lions Gaming Ultra Set is priced at $120 currently. Since Three Lions Gaming sets the standard price for Redemption my guess is the dominant will start out as $80 or less.

Actually, it's most likely $40 as this has been the pattern in the past.

The other two ultra rare cards will work in a variety of decks and I expect to be sought after. But Three Woes will most likely be the "chase" card, giving it the highest secondary market value of the three.

It's too bad there couldn't be a neutral dominant icon created for the Woes. How cool would it be to have a three-in-one, choosing it to be either good, evil, or neutral when played, keeping the same ability? It would also fit the card idea awesomely (3 literal versions to represent the Woes).

Such a great dominant. Can't wait to see a borderless version! 8)

I'm still wondering if Angels will be getting any new weapons as we are getting a lot of WC and we only have 1 weapon that's good.
They seem pretty lame as fighters maybe we should challenge them to a dance off or a redemption game

Which one is that? Sword of the Spirit? Angels Sword?

Sword of the guardian isn't bad, there's just no one decent to play it on! ;D But yeah, angel's sword really is the only decent mono-silver weapon.

I think the previews thus far show that the PTB have done a great job so far with the new set so I don't think we need to worry. :P

Honestly, I'm kinda worried about The Three Woes.  It just seems so powerful and versatile.  Hopefully there are some counter cards for it in this set.

Also kinda seems to go against this:

Now that we'll get the Reserve as another area will there also be something like Nazareth (Di) or Hezekiah's Signet Ring (Ki) which will cover deck, DC pile and reserve?

We prefer that players are allowed to use their cards. Overall it makes the game funner for everyone. Instead of making hard counters like Naz and HSR we choose to do "soft" counters like Music Leader, Dull Lost Soul and Golden Cherubim. These allow players to still play their cards but at a cost. It's up to the player as to whether or not they feel like that cost is worth it.
Life is what you make of it.

I think it fits that statement/goal just fine. It doesn't prevent you from playing your cards, the "cost" is just knowing that, if your opponent has Three Woes in play, they could potentially negate your card on their next turn. It can only negate one card at a time and it's entirely and completely vulnerable in territory.

...it's entirely and completely vulnerable in territory.

This part is what makes it not OP in my opinion. There are several good cards that can discard any evil card. We've had those for years and might even be getting something new this year. Evil has had very limited access to the ability to discard a good Dom in play. That's going to change this year.

The past couple sets we've tried to be very intentional about including "in-set-counters" to some of each sets strongest themes and cards. That's something we've continued with RoJ. The cards that can remove Three Woes wouldn't seem nearly as exciting if we showed them to you first.  :)

Oh, are you an angel?   ;)

In all seriousness, when the 8 offensive colors that you don't play get printed, you mourn the fact that Silver is being neglected.  Then when an expansion hits that gives Silver its 15 minutes of fame, you mourn the fact that the cards don't align with how you think they should function.

Your devotion to Silver is blinding you to the best expansions that have ever hit the Redemption scene.

Glad to hear it!  Excited for a lot of what we've seen so far.
