And I bet that radiation cloud is smart enough to stay within the borders, just like cigarette smoke is smart enough to stay in the "Smoking" section of a restaurant/bar.

 ;)

Similar to when a little kid isn't potty trained and they leak in the swimming pool.  It all stays in the shallow end...

...but what does this have to do with Genesis?  That offense is getting everywhere!  At the district tournament I held this month, five out of fourteen people were using some form of Genesis for T1-2P.

Bow and Arrow (Red): 2 versions (A/blue pack [2/1] and C [3/1])
Bow and Arrow (Gold): 2 versions (Warriors [interrupt & prevent] and Kings [negate])
Bow and Arrow (Gray): 3 versions (A/blue pack [2/1], Warriors/C [3/4], Kings [3/2])
Bow and Arrow (total): 7 versions, 10 instances

Shoes of Peace: promo/A/C/D [3/3], F [3/4] - 2 versions, 5 instances
I don't consider the good and the evil Bow and Arrows the same, especially since they have different verses. But if you consider them the same because they have the same name, then yes, they win by a lot.

Also, I don't consider A and Unlimited different versions, mainly because...well, you can't really tell the two versions apart. :P But I suppose they are different printings, in which case I would call it a tie.

A Thomas/Ehud/Ira deck will not get you very far at a Local.

That sounds like a challenge to those who are great at deck building :).

It was.  ;)

I would love to see a return to old-school themeless decks.

My advice is do not do it. I tried it last year. Blue is terrible without Genesis simply because half of the best enhancements are tailormade for Genesis. Without the heroes, they just don't work.

yeah, blue is pretty lackluster without its genesis theme. you have jacob/cap, thats about it...but even that requires a different brigade hero, and jacob himself is still genesis... :P

I wouldn't call Jacob "Genesis" for this since he was around long before the genesis theme.

But what if they use the new one that can play a Genesis enhancement? ::)

I prefer the other one, since there's a giant target on him, because people always assume that to use Jacob you HAVE to use RTC or OoN.

The next set is in development.  Now is the time to voice concerns about cards that are tough to beat with the available card pool.  In my opinion, nothing is broken in Redemption right now.  But there are some powerful cards and combos, to be sure.

In your opinion, what needs more counters?

Already on the list are some powerful counters to pre-block ignore.  Is there anything else that needs addressing?  Speak now, or hold your peace until this time next year.  :)
needs mire things like Kings Sword, To Stop Immunity

Also there needs to be more cards to hurt White brigade, ang TGT, both I personly think have grown to Powerful!

immunity is quite easy to defeat.  Any interrupt the battle card will work as well as King's sword.

more counters against TGT or something to encourage a multiple brigade defense. Sometimes it is fun to have characters all over, like with the Phillistine bros, or pairing persians with something else because there are not enough cards, but if you do these and run into a G tomb deck than it could get ugly.
