Band and Choke

The offense in this deck is almost entirely the same from my "Band and Babble On" deck. I just wanted to try something different with the defense.

Deck Size: 50 cards.

Dominants:
SoG
NK
AoTL
Grapes
CM
DoN
Vain Philosophy

Lost Souls:
Revealer
Women Only
NT Only
Shuffler
Rejoice
Resurrection
Lost Souls (possibly replace this with the new Early Church Lost Soul)

Artifacts:
Chariot of Fire
Shrine To Artemis

Site:
Dragon Raid (currently only has Wa, might get the promo version)

Fortress:
Areopagus

Neutral Enhancement:
Foreign Sword

Heroes:
David (Ki, Red)
Heldai
Ishmaiah the Gibeonite
Ashahel
Helez (Ki)
Ira (Ki)
Benaniah (Ki)
Abishai
Uriah The Hittite
Ahimilek the Hittite
Jepthah (Pa)

Good Enhancements:
Warrior's Spear
Mustering For War
Centurion's Proclamation
Freedom!
Bravery of David
A Soldier's Prayer

Evil Characters:
The Goat With Horn
The Winged Leopard
Epicurean Philosophers
Stoic Philosophers
The Priest of Zeus
Demetrius the Silversmith
Hellenistic Jews
Anthiochus IV Epiphanes

Evil Enhancements:
Pride of Simon
Wickedness of Delilah
Abandonment
Adjourn
Worldly Wisdom
Abomination of Desolation

I feel comfortable with the offense, as its primary function is banding, but I feel the defense needs a bit of work. What could I do to tweak it?

Swap Wickedness of Delilah for Seized by Rioters, or just add Seized by Rioters. I've found balanced decks like this one to be more successful when running 51/52 cards so you have that extra battle winner.

I would use David's Triumph instead of Freedom!

I actually like the use of Freedom! instead of DT...you already have two interrupt/battler winners so personally I think it's better to have a more diverse selection of abilities. A defense utilizing Herod's Temple for example would make Bravery and Triumph much less effective.

Counsel of Abigail might even be better than both to be honest.

I wouldn't play a black defense without Joseph in Prison.

I agree with this. Since you only have 2 ECs that can use it effectively, Worldly Wisdom might not be worth the spot.
