Does JT protect from forced draw? I know this has been discussed before but I don't remember a resolution.
Jerusalem Tower (Pa)
Type: Fortress • Brigade: None • Ability: None • Class: None • Special Ability: No opponent may remove a card from holder's draw pile. Draw pile may still be searched and/or shuffled. • Play As: Restrict opponents' from removing cards from holder’s deck. Deck may still be searched, revealed, and/or shuffled. • Identifiers: Play to territory. • Verse: Nehemiah 12:38 • Availability: Patriarchs booster packs (Rare)

I would say no, based on the REG's definition of draw. You're forcing the other player to draw, not targeting the deck.

I agree. Your opponent isn't removing the cards from your deck - you are.

I believe that was the rationale for that ruling as well. I am fairly certain it was ruled that a forced draw isn't protected by JT, because otherwise Mayhem would make JT unplayable.

As opposed to now, when it's so playable?

I've actually considered starting to use it in T2 decks, since it seems every other T2 game I play one player has to live without SoG, thanks to Assyrian Survivor+confusion.

Florida uses JT.

I'm seriously considering adding it as well in my T2 decks.

Especially since Egyptians never seem to completely die out in our meta. ::)

I can't tell if you mean the whole meta or just our own little PA/MD meta. If the latter, I'm quite looking forward to dipping my toes into the MD/PA T2 scene next time I make it to a tournament. If the former, last nationals I played Ken who had a 154 card Egyptian deck, in T1 Teams no less. Good times.

He still uses that deck. XD

Given his current trade thread, it looks like he's aiming for GoS this year. That would be an interesting deck.
JT would have been a GREAT card for T2-MP at PA States.
