Pale Green EE recursion? Will this be allowed?
expect an errata on this card...

Golgatha was designed to make it difficult but not impossible to recur the "skull icon" that is placed on it.

The wording "During battle" was used so that it won't work with Nathan unless you band him into battle.  It's not considered "during battle" until a Hero has been presented and their special ability has completed.  At that point it's too late for Nathan to shuffle a "skull icon" on Golgatha.

I don't see any reason that the DoU combo won't work.  It probably won't be used much in T1.  It's a fun combo in T2 but I haven't seen very many people playing DoU since a lot of decks use the Thorns LS.  There are other good counters coming this year too.

actually you could do it more then 10 times. Shuffle multiple golgotha's in with a single DoU.

In theory it only takes 2 DoU + Golgatha to do this infinitely.

wow. apparently loads of people missed my combo a few weeks back.
there's an easier way to do it guys...

from the wording yes, and with angel at warning and/or well reopened you can pull golgotha right back out...

and dont forget about emptying your hand of EE if that matters? holy unto the lord maybe?
