I'm guessing you're trying to build a deck around both AoC and WoS?

Good luck getting initiative after playing Babel.

Just think - You have a 1/3 Pharisee that will almost definitely have initiative; you block and play Babel to band in all your opp's EC's; hopefully, preferably, one of those EC's will have a ITB, play next enhancement on him (or maybe Jeering Youths would work), and so you can use it to play a battle-winner; your opponent will want to negate, and when he does, you can use JiP to not only win the battle, but completely eliminate your opp's defense.

and leaving my defenses intact!

YES!

ftw

But if, for some reason, they have a backup plan, you need one too. So, having a devourer would help. If they try to negate JiP, you just play it. It interrupts and discards it, which is basically the same as negating and discarding it; it can't reactivate from the discard pile.

Placing breastplate of righteous on saint of virtue; it's like having 2 ET's in your deck, and you're immune to crimson right away. It helps in case you run into a crimson deck.

BubbleBoy · « **Reply #11 on:** January 18, 2009, 10:25:58 PM »

I thought of that combo all by myself!

Although...just having ET is a better idea. $:-\$

woah, never thought of that... bwahaha!!!!

amelo · « **Reply #13 on:** January 19, 2009, 11:03:01 AM »

Or you could set aside Saint of Virtue with Training In Righteousness and place Spiritual Warfare on him.

BubbleBoy · « **Reply #14 on:** January 19, 2009, 11:13:05 AM »

Wait...do you have to use TiR to do that?

Spiritual Warfare is silver/green. Saint of Virtue is purple. You have to find some way to let him use enhancements from one of those 2 brigades.

BubbleBoy · « **Reply #16 on:** January 19, 2009, 11:16:31 AM »

Well, it's just that...oh, nevermind.

I used that in a 'destruction before the block' deck I built for quad. Mass territory destruction before anyone could block.

BubbleBoy · « **Reply #18 on:** January 19, 2009, 02:40:28 PM »

Did you also use Hidden Treasures and company?

TheKarazyvicePresidentRR · « **Reply #19 on:** January 19, 2009, 03:09:38 PM »

This was pre foof. Pre priests if memory serves.

BubbleBoy · « **Reply #20 on:** January 19, 2009, 06:41:38 PM »

Well, I can't imagine what cards you would use. $:-\$ Almost all the good pre-battle player cards are post-Priest, like Hidden Treasures, Jacob, etc. So what for example did you use in this deck?

E.t., The combo you said, Ctb to do territory destruction, etc.

It was probably pretty good. Back then people probably weren't expecting it as much and there certainly wasn't as much protection. Now days every good deck is prepared for it.

destruction isn't always discarding, capture, and converstion... as I found out last saturday.
