Looks much better. I'd say you're a little lop-sided with GE's now (I didn't expect you to add all 4 Enhancements). Take out one of the GE's, and you may also think about switching David's Win with Walking on Water (I always seem to forget that card). Not definitively recommending it, just suggesting you give it some thought.
I am not talking about T2 unless I am explicitly talking about T2. Also Mayhem is fine now somehow!

Well, I don't think I'll be able to get my hands on a Nat promo very easily, lol, so maybe I'll just take out Cent's Proc and leave David's Win until if/when I can get a copy of Walking.

EDIT: I'm at 55 right now, would it be worth adding Dragon Raid like dotson suggested, or perhaps WoP?

IMO Proc>Win.

Turns out I actually only have 54, so maybe I'll put Proc back in. Is it terribly bad to have 10 enhancements?

It's not that it's bad to have 10 Enhancements, but in this kind of deck you're better off cutting 1 or 2 and gaining that extra bit of speed.

I replaced Win with Proc, should I just leave it at 54 then?

i was more skeptical of having only 4 ec's in a 55 carder, 5 if you count outpost.

I'm skeptical about even having a defense of 10 cards in this deck that is attempting to block the opponent.

seems like it would fit better in a 50 carder. but hopefully it will come out quick with all the mass drawing or an early outpost.

I'd think about taking out 1 EE for another EC. If your PO is late in the game. Only 4 ECs could cost you the game. Also, the EE you pull out might be JiP, because using it removes one of your 4 ECs out of the game.

Since you're at 54, I'll make a suggestion for the final 2 slots.
Simon the Magician is just too good not to add in a black defense, especially when you have Herod's Temple.
The Garden Tomb--with both Peter and John, I think this would be a sneaky card to use.

If you want to keep it at 54, then I would take out Chariot of Fire and one of your good enhancements.

Have you checked the REG?

simon is counter-productive since he can only use jip and foolish. the deck also has peter, which negates any effectiveness he could have had.

I'd still use Simon simply because he is such a threat to NT offenses. Your opponent can't be sure you aren't waiting with Simon/Wrath. Peter isn't much of a problem since he'll likely be set-aside in Boat most of the time. Come to think of it, adding Wrath would be nice as well since you can set-aside your Disciples whenever you like.

looks very solid now. wrath was an excellent add, as a philly + bringing fear + wrath will usually go off too.

I liked it, too, but I'm not sure what I can afford to take out for it.
