That's a bit of a problem. If I ever come home and see a worn-out Nebuchadnezzar by your pillow, we'll have to have a serious chat.

a 12FG, KoT, and/or Prince shuts this deck down cold.

you can AoTL them once, Sword of the Spirit them once, but your other rescues will be completely shot down

The only way KoT and PotW can shut this deck down is if the opponent is using Golden Calf/Confusion of Mind/The Trap of the Devil/Punisher LS.  Otherwise their abilities will always be prevented by Ira/Benaiah/Captain at the end of a band.  Decks like this need art destruction.  DoN and Lying Unto God at a minimum.  Maybe Captured Ark.

12FG is a legitimate concern.  I would find a way to fit in Asahel (who should be in a deck like this anyways), David's Mighty Men, and A Soldier's Prayer.  As long as you start your band with a red hero, if they block with 12FG, you have initiative with a CBN battle winner.  And DMM isn't useless if the opponent doesn't have 12FG - it could score a rescue against Assyrians, Babs, Egyptians, Romans, Syrians, and some other characters.

Grapes would also be a great add to deal with difficult ECs
