Sounds fun!
I'm just curious was it ever posted who won the Armor of God contest? I never saw anything about it.
Love land of redemption it is such a cool way to learn new things.

I had forgotten about this but now I'm curious as well!

Hey guys,

Sorry about not getting an announcement out sooner, we were going to do it at Nationals, and the day got away from us.

Daniel Huisings was the winner, with the most correct guesses.

Thanks for the great participation

This week on Land of Redemption:

A Kid's Perspective - Type A National Champion (with a twist!

)
"Ruthless Stuff": Part 2
Pocket Devos on Friday

Also pending are:

T2-2P Champion report
Teams Champion report
T1 top cut report

Between busy summer schedules, work on the REG update, all the new card previews and the Nationals coverage, many of our regular authors and articles have been on hiatus. With the start of the new school year we can expect some of those to pick back up as well as articles from a new author or two!

*"high level play" video is still pending due to my slow editing

"High Level Play" - video and commentary of a game between myself and T1-2P National Champion John Early, featuring Persecuted Church decks (is this really "high level play" or do these guys even know what they're doing? You decide!)
Friday devo - The "Christ-Likeness" of Joshua

Gabe · « **Reply #156 on:** August 27, 2015, 01:04:51 AM »

The "High Level Gameplay" video is now live on both Land of Redemption and Youtube. Enjoy!

On the plus side of being moved to third shift at work, I get to read/watch the new LoR stuff right away when it updates at midnight!

Looking forward to the video.

Awesome video. Thanks for all the new content, Gabe.

Roman Spear can't decrease The Serpent, because The Serpent is not human

I caught that as well, and posted it in the comments. Good thing it didn't have the catastrophic effect that John feared it might if he hadn't done that...

The Guardian · « **Reply #161 on:** August 27, 2015, 05:20:22 PM »

Hmm, maybe it should have been called "Mostly High Level Play"

Just kidding guys, loved the video and hope to see more!

Jonesy · « **Reply #162 on:** August 27, 2015, 06:18:56 PM »

Video was awesome, what is the next one going to be about?

Legolas · « **Reply #163 on:** August 27, 2015, 06:51:49 PM »

Nice video!
Also about the "cascade" negate, which stuff can't be cascaded because the video mentioned that the stuff that can be cascaded will be, but the stuff that can't won't, what ones can't?

The Guardian · « **Reply #164 on:** August 27, 2015, 07:04:06 PM »

Anything that is "Cannot be interrupted" (I believe Philemon was the example in the video) or "Cannot be negated" would not be cascade negated (also referred to as "indirect negation").

Legolas · « **Reply #165 on:** August 27, 2015, 08:13:47 PM »

Thanks

Gabe · « **Reply #166 on:** August 27, 2015, 08:59:36 PM »

Thanks for the feedback on the video. It was "mostly high level play" for sure. Both John and I were disappointed at some of the plays we made and the things we overlooked. It was only the second time we've played those decks using the new cards. In the future we will use decks we are more familiar with.

I'm glad that cascading negate happened. It's a good example of one of the more messy things that can happen in Redemption. Both Philemon and Claudia are CBI which is why I didn't have to shuffle my deck as part of the cascade.

This is most likely the format I'll use for the I&J starter tutorial videos which is the next video project I want to work on. My hope is that they will be high quality and a great tool to help people enter the game.

We will do more HLP games in the future as well. There's already been talk about a T2 HLP game so I'm sure that will happen some time.

I'm interested to hear peoples thoughts about how we can improve the video. One piece of feedback I received is that the card images could be bigger. I'll mess with some different formats to see if I can figure out a way to make that happen for future videos. Any other ideas?

jesse · « **Reply #167 on:** August 27, 2015, 11:01:38 PM »

Great video! I loved to hear your commentary throughout and to keep up with what you guys were drawing. Really fun and I'm looking forward to more videos!

Prof Underwood · « **Reply #168 on:** August 29, 2015, 01:55:03 AM »

I also enjoyed watching the video. I admit that I fast-forwarded a bit through the deck overview parts, which seemed just a tad long. Maybe you could just skip the obvious cards (SoG/NJ, individual NT LSs, etc.) and only mention the cards that were more unusual to include in a deck but were great for these particular decks.

The game itself went at a great pace though, and was very clear to follow along. Great job overall, and thanks for contributing this resource for the community.

It might be good to start the title with "Redemption CCG" (or TCG). I know that makes it longer, but it might be good for exposure.
Thanks!

Thank you for the feedback! We will use those suggestions to improve our next HLP video.

This week on Land of Redemption:

Monday: Two Important Announcements!
Tuesday: Do You Want to Build a T2?
Wednesday: Got a Counter? Toss
Thursday: Still open
Friday: Pocket Devos

I would like to congratulate Scott Bowen (Browa) on his new Co-Editor role!

As a new player, LoR has been a huge help to me. I certainly appreciate all the effort that you guys are putting into the site. Once I become more knowledgeable of the game and get some experience under my belt, I would love to help out in whatever way I can.

kariusvega · « **Reply #172 on:** August 31, 2015, 02:35:44 PM »

totally looking forward to more engaging videos! loved the one yall posted up of the persecuted church game!

do you think you could maybe post up a video that could be permanently on the front page of land of redemption kind of giving a quick overview of the game and how it ties directly to ministry? this might be useful for people like me who want to share the game with others and something to send them to spark their interest and hopefully subscribe to land of redemption and begin playing all together! maybe even if it is a short video like 30 seconds or a minute that just says how we are to rescue lost souls and it's a great way to learn about the heroes of the bible, the holy spirit with the fruits of the spirit, and the armor of god you know?

Thanks so much! I'm super excited to be able to help Land of Redemption in this capacity.

If there's ever something you'd like to see, or to write about, please feel free to contact myself or Gabe.

This is a great idea, JD! I'll make this part of the introductory videos I'm working on.
