I love this deck! I have to trade for some of the cards but I REALLY want to run this defense! It looks near invincible in today's meta!

First, if you get rid of one lost soul, your deck would still be legal, 7 lost souls = 56 cards, right now you have 8 in a 57 card deck.
LOL, sorry
With your offence, I will first try and keep the blue. Instead of Jubilee, add pillar at bethel (art), can be used twice, and abrahams decendant is very good also, so you could have niether of them. I also would add chariot of fire, since you have very little recursion. I personally would make your deck a TGT deck, change your offence to NT White, or disciples and then Herods temple would help those also. Another interesting concept is making your offence recurable for a very long time, or indefinatly, and having a huge defence, I currently have a judges deck where the offence is 8 cards, but recurable indefinatly, including enhancements, and a 28 card defense that delays the game, and destroys my opponants deck, even without blocking. If you would like to create a judges deck, the 8 cards I have are Gabriel (I&J), Angel Under the Oak, Gideon, Jair, Judges seat, Chamber of Angels, Eaten By worms, The Fifth Seal. You can use this with a huge defence, I have Demons/Persians/cannanites. Great defence though!!

Just a few thoughts!

Cut down your artifacts to 3 or 4. Also, I prefer the gray sadducees over emperors so Herod Agrippa II can band to them, which can be really tricky for some offenses to deal with, especially with Herod's Temple. Also, Herod's Treachery is too good not to use. I may drop Balaam's. If you stick with blue, you should definitely use Golgotha, it's a great way to get back Herod's Treachery with Abraham's Descendants.

What do you think Westy? I switched it up with the Sadducees, and got some more Gold in there; I like the looks of it, still might switch the offense, but this should play out well as is.

Looks better, though I'd use Arrest in Gethsemane over Questioning Christ. It's a great stall tactic against SoG/NJ.

Also, I still think you could drop one artifact (probably HHI since you have HtG and Archeleus), and I'd potentially say go down to 56. With a slower deck like this, drawing less souls is pretty crucial.

Also, Moses Kills the Egyptian seems good.

Westy, you're brilliant I'm keeping you around! I didn't even know what arrest in gethsemane was haha

I love that card.

I think this has great potential, I'm still considering a switch to judges or a gen/judges combo I don't quite know yet.
