I'm using an A-bom deck but I can't seem to get through with my heros to rescue lost souls, I was wondering what card should I have for my offence?
-
I am assuming you are using gold luke/john heroes. Your first offensive strategy is to abom all their evil characters. If that does not work use Judges seat and Eli the Priest to get rid of their */5 and above evil characters. If all that fails make sure to include Repentance and Restitution, Meeting the Messiah and Convincing Miracle. Also, include three nails or some other way to take out demons since gold is weak in this area. Most abom decks also splash in teal which has a great battle winner, Zeal for the Lord, and Z's Temple.

nononono, abom their evil characters and use garden tomb offense.
-
Is House in Bethany a good card to have in an A-bom deck? I would think so.

Take out Saph and T12FG and replace Dragon Raid with Ends of the Earth. Take out House of Bethany and put Hopper in there. DoN is a must too.

Disagree.
He has 7 EC's in an A-bomb deck and you are suggesting to take out EC's!?! He needs to add more EC's instead. He does not really need access, he can A-bomb their sites. He also does not need a Hopper, as he is playing with gold and they pull lost souls out like no other. DoN is a must, but he probably doesn't have one.

He should at least take out Saph. Btw, 7 Ec's are not few in an abom deck. For a very well-built Abom deck, see http://www.cactusgamedesign.com/message_boards/index.php?topic=20293.0 (http://www.cactusgamedesign.com/message_boards/index.php?topic=20293.0)

EoTE is much more practical than DR. I would never use up aboms on sites just because I would rather use DR.
He also does not need a Hopper, as he is playing with gold and they pull lost souls out like no other.
It's still very helpful. I use it in all of my Abom decks.
