Hey, I have been trying this in one of my decks, so I want to make sure it works:
I attack with a Genesis hero and then I decide to activate Golgotha on my turn and pull an EE from discard pile. Regardless, of battle outcome...I ultimately play Abraham's descendant. I decide to pick up the EE that I put on Golgotha.
This combo works correct?
Abraham's Descendant (Di)
Type: Hero Enh. • Brigade: Blue • Ability: 3 / 3 • Class: Territory • Special Ability: Interrupt a Curse or evil Enhancement in play and add it to your hand. Search each discard pile for a good Enhancement and place them beneath owners' decks. • Play As: Interrupt a Curse or evil Enhancement in play and place in hand. Search each discard pile for a good Enhancement and place them beneath owners' decks.
Golgotha (Di)
Type: Site • Brigade: White • Ability: None • Class: None • Special Ability: Anytime during battle, you may place a skull icon card from hand or discard pile on Golgotha: N.T. characters of that brigade cannot be ignored. Return that card to its previous location at end of turn. • Identifiers: Jew, Holds one skull icon card

I see nothing wrong with it. You can also shuffle it back into your deck via Threatened Lives.

Very much works.

wow, a nice genesis deck in type 2 that also abuses DoU or other shufflers could really be strong.

Be sure to choose your other Abraham's Descendant as the GE to place under your deck so that you can continue to recur your EE until Christ returns.

I actually discovered this mid-game after my deck was built, and I was in tournament play. It became a necessity out of desperation than seeking a combo to manipulate. However, as an extra game note, Asher kept bringing A.D. back. Forgotten History was my recurred ability, since I was decked out D.O.U would only weaken me and not keep me strong.
More extra game notes: My opponent would not draw lost souls, so I had decked and was waiting for them.
Statistical fact from that game: my opponent drew 3 lost souls throughout his first 59 cards. His "defense" was unstoppable.
I just wanted to be sure that I played Golgotha right. I could activate it so my opponent's NT ECs were protected from ignore if I did it on my turn. Glad to see that I did do that right.

I used two copies of Golgotha in my Job deck with a brown defense (Judah/Persians). The anti-ignore part never helped, but the recursion was epic.

I use x5 in my Job deck and I shot myself in the foot when I traded my first one to RDT and he used it against me with a Claudia+ET Pentecost come back Abe's Kid Pentecost Claudia+ET Great Faith Pentecost combo :)
