Welcome to the Official Redemption® Message Board!
Let's move the focus back to the new set--there's been a lot of discussion about Michael, but hardly any on the winner cards, which I find surprising. I think all three are going to show up in a ton of decks this year (much like the winner cards last year).
Quote from: Master Q on April 13, 2017, 11:57:06 AMIf CBN protected from an entire defense with a supercharged Joshua-type ability isn't amazing to you, I don't know what is... Protecting from a single defense is still not interesting enough to me. Yeah, he can't be hurt by demons, but at least 85% of defenses don't use demons- even after the release of this set.

Chamber is a lot better then you think. Unless you think losing Place cards, Weapons and everything else is fine. Or losing everything to a Banish all is fine. It's not the fastest card, but especially with the new Everlasting Beings and the Protection setup that can be run with Heavenly Temple, your better off playing it.

The players have spoken and we've listened! We attempted to update Michael in a way that incorporates what everyone wants into one amazing card. Feast your eyes on...Spoiler (hover to show)

I look forward to an extensive REG entry.Quote from: The REG"Want To" AbilitiesGeneral DescriptionA "want to" ability is an ability that allows a player to activate an ability he wants to, or target any number of cards he wants to with a named special ability.How to PlayWhen a "want to" ability is activated, its controller chooses a special ability to activate, or chooses any number of targets for a specified ability.Default Conditions● A "want to" ability that allows its controller to choose an ability must choose an ability that is currently defined in the REG.● A "want to" ability that allows its controller to choose any number of targets for a specified ability defaults to play, unless stated otherwise in the specific ability that the "wants to" ability is choosing targets for.Clarifications● When naming a special ability of choice, all REG rules that apply to that ability also apply to the "want to" ability. ● The words "really want to" and "really really want to" mean the same as "want to".

I'm sorry if that sounded presumptive.Personally, I've had a lot of trouble running demons myself, and I have never, ever run into a demon offense in a tournament-level Redemption game.But protection against, at the very very most, 1/7 of blockers in exchange for turning the entire arsenal of silver Enhancements CBN just isn't worth it to me.
I love the ends of the earth and the good version of lurking. I think that the ends of the earth will probably be best used in teams, but that's just my opinion. regardless, i am very happy with the ability that it got, knowing how much debating and deliberation there was going on about it!
....Say.If you put Angel's Sword on The New Strong Angel and he get's blocked by a Human, you could drop TWO Enhancements........Ooh.Strong indeed.I love this set.
Throw Angel's Sword and Wheel on Michael, band him to The Strong Angel (RoJ), play any Revelation enhancement on TSA, play The Third Seal (WA) off Angel's Sword, win.

I'm curious how many angel fans plan to use The Four Living Creatures and Wheel within a Wheel to pull all their O.T. angels out of deck quickly? Too bad WwaW doesn't get N.T. angels.
For the Justice Seekers is it supposed to specify it cannot negate neutral cards? On a larger note is it able to be activated off of any discard ability?

On a larger note is it able to be activated off of any discard ability? It doesn't negate anything so I'm not sure what your first question is referencing. Yes as long as it's used by an opponent.Also, just realized your Justice Seekers can discard a lost soul from your own territory.
