Nope. 3/4 Gold card from G/h. Shuffle all wc ecs. Since 99% of philies are wc it works quite well. As does Judge's seat + hez sig.

No but it does stop PO which means you can't pull your PAB back from deck/discard.

Still, I would only say like 80%, since I use Philly Priests in every Philly deck I make (which is admittedly few). I personally don't use Goliath, but I know a lot of people that do, so I might even make that like 60%.

The Guardian · « **Reply #8 on:** March 12, 2010, 01:21:26 PM »

I used Delilah and Philistine Priests in my T1 Philistine deck.

Sadly Goliath got replaced by the much more versatile Sisera...

good luck getting inish against Teal. they'll Scapegoat you're horses

fallen warrior 2/2 easily put in with outpost or pab

Warrior_Monk · « **Reply #12 on:** April 04, 2010, 08:49:39 AM »

and Scapegoat or Zeal will still shut you down. also, have fun TRYING to discard him. your opponent will probably have Covenant of Phineas active, and if they don't, they'll probably have Scapegoat, Zeal, Jordan Interrupted + T Blast...

3-Liner And Bags Of Chips · « **Reply #13 on:** April 04, 2010, 09:32:54 AM »

I have played a number of teal offenses with my philistine defense and every time, I have never had a single problem just abusing them against my will. IDK if it is because either the player didn't know how to use them properly or the fact that they didn't have everything they needed.

Warrior_Monk · « **Reply #14 on:** April 04, 2010, 09:57:28 AM »

12 Fingered hurts Teal. with a Hezzy's Sig, they shouldn't have too much problem beating Philly's.

Well, may i remind you philistines have alot of negates. unless you plan to RA with phineas, i would rather block with fallen warrior or philistine garrison, then you can't do anything, i ignore you, and my numbers are lower. enhancment.

And if you happen to have hezzikiahs ring, i play DoN.

Teal uses lampstand. I prefer the unkillable Joshua the HP route. Lampstand, ZT, sites down to stop land dispute, book of cov with cov with levi and phinehas. CBN enh, can't be d/c'd captured converted removed. Good luck sucker.

I would usually agree with this (basically ALL the cards you listed are in every Teal deck I've ever built...), but in the case of Philistine's, I'd have to sacrifice the Book of the Covenant for Hezzy's Sig when I rescue with Josh. I might need to switch the arts every now and then, but for the most part, I can interrupt their discards.

Then Philly Priests Negate and Deactivate your Covenant of Phinehas, and CM smacks your Joshua upside the head. Then Next turn we negate and Deactivate LotS and cause you mischief

. I love Philistines because they have a lot of defensive options to stop the annoying teal support arts.

TheKarazyvicePresidentRR · « **Reply #18 on:** April 05, 2010, 10:34:47 AM »

You could do that, cept cov with phin would be back up.

They can but then my lampstand is still up. I'm not saying philistines CAN'T deal with them, they are just hard to deal with.

True, then i deactivate your lampstand and DoN Cov with Phineas.

which will do what? I still have 3 interrupts that will stop Wrath.

And don't forgot the philistines are mighty good at negates them selves. Throw a lying unto god in there for fun and teal faces a real challenge in Philistines. It won't be easy to stop teal, but I believe Philistines are the best equipped to stop them out of all the brigades except for maybe Crimson. Those Babylonians are always making a mess of temples

OH! no, philistines can get rid of temples too with their land dispute.

IF they don't have a site. Babs have both Axe and Desecrate the Temple, each of which can get rid of ZTemple no matter what. Brown has Crucify Him also...

Philistine priests does this. And then i play DoN. >.>

I realize what Philli priest does, but what will that accomplish? I can still stop Wrath with a number of things.

they do, but in an FBTN battle between Phineas or Josh against a Philistine, Phineas/Josh will probably win.
oh, and I think Brown is best equipped...
