What makes a good Brigade?

I want to compile a list of what makes a Brigade desirable. Here is what I can think of:

For Good:
-CBN banding
-FbtN Hero
-CTB Hero
-Recursion Hero
-Play-first
-Pre-block Ignore
-CBN battle-winner
-*/1 Hero
-Territory Destruction
-Big Hero with some sort of Protection
-Plenty of drawing

For Evil:
-FbtN EC
-Play-first
-Wide-scope Immune or Protected EC
-Recursion
-CBN Battle-winner
-1/1 EC
-CBN banding
-An EC safe from AotL/Grapes
-Thad counter (citation needed)
-Way to stop CBN bands.
-Chump Blockers


Anything else?

I would consider cards that easily transition to other strong brigades as well.

I'm not for the purposes of this list. I'd like to identify specifically what makes people say "Red/Silver is weak" or "Teal is strong."

Deck stacking and draw. Maybe FBTN.

I enjoy fun combos that annoy people. :P I think it has a lot to do with support cards, like DaA or Hidden Treasures or Judges Seat. Just boosters to the base color.

For evil cards, evil characters that can end battles all by themselves (Entrapping Pharisee, Egyptian Warden, King Zimri, etc.) is a big plus in my mind.

Also consider neutral cards that go well with a brigade, such as Herod's Dungeon with Herods.

I disagree with this thread as the game is no longer about what brigade you use and more about what theme or sub theme you are using.
