I am still new to type 2 games so just wondering if any deck should have 4 of a same card in it?

Would having 4 Haman's plot , Balaam's disobedience , Gold Shield , end the battle cards or Benjamin be a good idea??

or do you think most type 2 decks should only contain a max of 3 for avoiding hand clog? unless a player has a certain strategy??

thoughts??

Having 4 of battle winners is always a good idea whether it's end the battle or kill yourself to protect lost souls, or just straight battle winners. Each brigade has it's 3 or 4 enhancements (good or evil) people typically run 4. Strategy comes into play as well.

You'll end up using 4 of specific enhancements far more often than 4 of characters. Enhancements can be used anytime (and frequently recurred) whereas characters can clog up your hand if you have too many copies (at least in the case of unique characters). Generic characters you'll sometimes have 4 of (I have 4 of several of the generic Assyrians in my T2 defense, for example) but unique characters generally you'll only want 2 (or 3 if they're essential to your strategy).

I agree with the above sentiments. Also, not to detract you from asking more questions about T2 because as a mostly T2 player myself I'm glad you're interested, but you should definitely check out some of the T2 deck lists people have posted in the Complete Decks, T2 Deck Advice, and Nationals Winning Decks areas of the forums. You'll notice that many Assyrian defenses use 4 Forgotten History and Death of Unrighteous, many Judges offenses uses 4 Samuel's Edict, many Pharisee defenses use 4 Balaam's Disobedience, so on and so forth.

Sounds good I will have a look at those categories.
