I'm just trying to make it clear that, if Sam should lose this vote, the only spread offenses that people are allowed to complain about are those with Moses in them.  ;)

I agree. I don't get this community. You whine and moan about how broken Samuel is, and then you don't even vote him to be the best hero in his brigade, let alone in the game. If I hear one more complaint about a Samuel deck after this vote (if Sam loses), I'm going to flip.

People are just voting against Sam because they don't like him.

Moses is FbtN with a Hero that can band to him CBI. Quite good.

Sam can chain to FbtN, has CBN banding, good initiative in a great Brigade to have initiative in, the best identifier in the game, searches for someone he can band to in addition to drawing 2, negates Horses, and is more easily tutorable and recurrable than any other card in the game (along with the other Judges). Amazing!

The only way amazing is loosing to quite good is that everyone's playing amazing and haters gonna hate.
I am not talking about T2 unless I am explicitly talking about T2. Also Mayhem is fine now somehow!

The Fact that Sam is a prophet doesn't help him since he can't use Hidden Treasures, unless you were referring to his Judge identifier, which I don't think you were.

The deeper Moses gets into the rounds, the longer it will take to get a Gold/Green version of him.  ;)

I think he was. Judge is definitely the best identifier in the game.

Alternatively, Obadiah's Caves makes Sam's Prophetness somewhat helpful.
Press 1 for more options.

Plus he can still use Hidden Treasures, he just has to use the discard part of it.

This thread is .....



How Moses is winning is beyond me.  Samuel is the linchpin of the strongest T1 deck in the game (guess debatable now with the rule changes), and arguable the strongest offense T2.  Moses is a key part of the teal/green/gold version of a Samuel deck, but its still that a Samuel deck.  Guess there will be no more Sammy complaints in the future.  I seriously doubt between T1 and T2 Moses has rescue more souls this year than Samuel.

I think it makes sense.  Samuel is great, and I voted for him in previous rounds.  But Moses has been one of the best heroes for a long time, and it seems like even when new cards come out he stays great (ie. fitting into a Sam deck, or any deck with Aaron).  Samuel seems great now, but will he be next year?  Suzanna was the flavor of the year last year, and this year she went down in the first round.  Samuel could be the same way.  Only time will tell.

Moses has proved himself year after year.  He deserves to win this matchup.
