I really like this deck idea, because instead of the usual site decks which use multiple site colors, this deck uses only one - purple - and has lots of different ways to combat that color specifically. It still needs some work, though, especially on offense.

Cards in deck: 70
Lost Souls: 9
   Lost Soul (anti-ignore)
   Lost Soul (Color Guard)
   Lost Soul (Female Only)
   Lost Soul (N.T. only)
   Lost Soul (site doubler)
   Lost Soul (site guard)
   Lost Soul (Speed Bump)
   Lost Soul (Thorns)
   Lost Souls (2-line)

   New Jerusalem
   Son of God

Nope, you can have unlimited sites

Maximum of 3 of each in a deck:
Single-colored Heroes, Evil Characters and enhancements that do not have a special ability.

Another Sitelock poops on this deck. I'd also recommend making it faster somehow or going to 63.

I've contemplated making a brown/black site lock defense before.  One thing that I think you should consider is what if your opponent is using a chiefly purple offense?  While destruction of Athaliah is good, it can only be used a couple of times.  I would recommend going with red sites rather than purple.  Then you could throw in Bear and/or Sisera to help out.

Just my .


EDIT:  Actually, Black does have Demon in Armor, so maybe you could just throw that in there and stick with the purple sites.  There might be other anti-purple brown or black characters that I'm not aware of as well.

Interesting...I never thought that adding cards could make a deck smaller, but you may have something there!

My question is: Which negative cards should I "add"?

The only other card that I'm not so sure about is Destruction of Athaliah.  It does nuke purple heroes, but if you opponent isn't playing purple it's pretty much useless.  If you decide to shrink the deck some, that one might be a candidate for removal.

If my opponent doesn't use purple, I'm home-free! I just have to steal all their access sites (which I can do up to four times) and lock them out. Plus, I still have Wrath of Satan and Face of Death, and Overwhelmed by Philistines would still work even if it wasn't CBN.

jusst do jacob with jakes dream and then you can juse asher to recurr it.
thats what briangabe taught me about sitelockign

2cents.
