Quote from: lp670sv on March 19, 2012, 02:44:00 PMIt would be unwise to play AOCP off of ET. If your opponent has an EC in hand it takes away the free soul aspect of it.AoCp off of ET remains one of the best plays in the game, especially in T2.

Everyone is using protect forts and it's difficult to get by DD/CWD. Even then, 90% of people are playing with Assyrians and are smart enough to not set down a lot of characters in fear of PoJ.It's good when it works, but so was COMBO COMBO COMBO COMBO CONGO, and that was one of the worst strategies in the game.
Gloria in Excelsis Deo does a tough enough job at shutting down weapons it seems like though, especially because there are two solid ways to recur it and you can have two copies now. I used KOTW in my deck to protect my dude with Charms (and it also helps vs TGT and CTB), but I'm not sure if anyone else ever does that. I don't think I saw a single copy of Captured Ark, and I only saw one copy of Naz.Dunno. This is just from my limited experience vs ET in t2. He's only really hurt me with Reach before. CWD is pretty easy to kill with Two Bears, but that's about it. I don't know how many people were using DD. I was using it as tech vs SWJ, but I think I'll probably take it considering I only have one of each unique hero except for like Isaiah, Seraph with Live Coal, and AUTO.
I love Gloria in Excelsis Deo especially with Gabriel. Only problem with it compared to Passover Hymn is with Gloria you must discard x which includes your own weapons if it come to that since it doesn't say up too x. But I really never use assyrians w/ TGT. The added negation of human evil character is amazing though. Lifting the curse is great for CWD as well. And it is usually easy to get out before CWD (with Lilies to pull it). First turn CWD's can be annoying though. Especially with an early Nazareth.

Usually it's only Gabriel.
