I departed the sites/abom defense.  Has anyone added Abom with Garden Tomb heroes?  I wondered if it would work to force players to put their ECs into play, where they could then be Abom'd?  Would this work?

30 pieces of silver

1 Curse:

Captured Ark

2 Sites:

2 GOOD DOMINANTS:

4 EVIL DOMINANTS:

9 HEROES:

Any good offense will plow through that defense.
I am not talking about T2 unless I am explicitly talking about T2. Also Mayhem is fine now somehow!

+1  You don't need that many greeks.  I've always used just 2; increase the defense in other ways.

Any offense will need site access, right?  This CASUAL deck is designed to stall with sites long enough to let Abom do its dirty work and then rescue 5 lost souls.  It has 3 ways to remove site access artifacts (and I may add Lying unto God for a 4th), 5 ways to deal with heroes with "Access to any site", and 5 ways to deal with access sites (and all of this assuming I don't get lucky with Samaritan Water Jar).  It has ways to negate the special abilities on heroes an opponent may have.

What is the weakness with "site stall" as a defensive tactic?  Exactly how much site access do most of you put in your decks?  Thanks for offering more detail.

Edit:  Just added Satan's Seat and Lying unto God.  Moving more toward Site lockout.

But you don't have any way to search for sites. In addition, even site lockouts need to be able to stand on their own two legs. Woman at the Well, Hopper, SWJ, Hur, TAS, and Mayhem can all create LS's outside of Sites during your opponents turn, and you have no way of blocking those RA's unless you get lucky with JiP or 2PBD not being Negated (provided you have a chance to play them before the CBN battle-winner most of your EC's will give them initiative to play).

Good point about those cards that can produce un-shielded lost souls.  Burial and Son of God could help with those a little too.  Please note that Angel of Warning is in there to get the sites I want (or perhaps you mean search for a site and fill it during opponent's battle).  Thanks for being more specific.

I changed this deck.  Please advise if Garden Tomb + Abom is a good combo.

I've found Priests and Judges to fill the slots better than TGT, but lmk if it works out.
