I really wanted Widow to move on too. Bad matchup.

Most certainly...Widow is clearly the best OT Purple Hero so it doesn't feel like she should be out in the first round.

Widow > King David, King Lemuel, King Jotham, Misheboleth?

OT Female purple maybe, but I like alot of OT Purples alot more than I like her.

Want to know what's disgusting? Melchizedek didn't make top 8. I don't know how I forgot him when I made my list.

I'll take Widow over all of them every day of the week and twice on the weekends.

Of those, only King David has any legit shot at a freebie LS and he doesn't have initiative to drop AoCP. Widow has both.

What surprises me is how much love Zaccheus got, and then Solomon, who actually puts the forts in play, didn't make the top 8 for purple.

Sure, he doesn't get the NT forts out, but he looks at hand and benefits from The Throne of David.  He's pretty helpful in my opinion - at least as much as Zaccheus.  Maybe when purple gets more support for Royalty...

I think that speaks more to Gold's shortage of awesome Heroes when compared to Purple.

Of course, that could change with the new set.
Just think about J...oh wait...never mind... ::)

Zacc can get init more than once a year, is NT, and the best forts are NT. Throne of David kind of pays off for the init, but if you're including that you've got bigger problems with your deck.

 Zach can get Gates.  :-*

Gold has some of the best heroes. Moses versus Gen Widow is going to be the deciding match up...until Thad comes along. Women at the Well shouldn't have beat Ehud, but both of those are terrific. Zaccheus is better than Watchful Servant, as Watchful Servant is ignore and can only be used end game. His other ability is meh. Those 6 heroes are better than most of red (Asahel and Jepthah are better than Zacc, WatW, and WS.) and all of blue (except maybe Jacob).
