The obvious goal here is to discard any protect forts/sites to be able to wipe out my opponents whole defense in one fell swoop, with Angel of the Lord in to clean up a possible straggler. In case my Paul DOES get taken out, I have two others waiting in the wings, with AoCp at the ready again. On defense, the goal is to take out Chariot of Fire as quickly as possible, then bombard his territory with Samarias to take out the offense. The only thing I'm not happy about is the pale green enhancements. I ran out of room, and I'm trying something new with a High Places strategy, which I'm eager to test out (we'll see how it goes).

GoS and GoJ won't protect against your own AoCP, and a smart player will keep a hero in hand after they realize what you're doing.

Played a few games with it today. The main problem so far is that it's slow to get set up. Unless my draw is decent, it's pretty easy for my opponent to walk in early to grab a few souls. However, once I get set up, I almost never have to give a soul up. Between good ol' Samaria discarding and 2K Horses or Jezebel/Ahab banding, my opponent almost never gets a chance to do any real damage. I'm going to look at streamlining this down to 100, but right now I'm more concerned with getting rid of fluff and replacing it with better options.

Laver, and possibly Unknown Nation.

I already have Unknown Nation.

I took out the Kings of Judah (along with Gates) to add A Slave, Bronze Lever x3, Plagued with Diseases x2, Unholy Writ, and currently working on the other four card slots. King Manny stays though.

Wickedness Abounds x2-3. That card is incredibly useful in my 154 GoS deck. Then 1-2 Shimei's Malicious Curse or Wickedness of the Tenants.
