Looks fast. Only thing I would do is take out some of the "not as needed" EC's (Warden, Jannes, Pot's Wife) for stand alone, or Gomer or Uzzah. The defense looks fast, but could use some autoblocks I think.

You have too many enhancements on both sides.

I think your enhancements are fine actually. I see this deck needing some kind of win condition... you'll run into trouble with a fast deck.

win condition? what stand alones would work well other than uzzah? i already have kot

Like a Saul/Paul heroless gets out Paul. A TGT deck has TGT. You don't have any card or cards that you can rely on to almost always win... I feel like a fast or defense-heavy deck could beat you.

there is recurrable cannot be negated kill cards on joseoh and benjamin, doesnt thant count?

sepjazzwarrior · « **Reply #9 on:** August 18, 2011, 04:48:55 PM »

edit=uzzah for potphers wife

sepjazzwarrior · « **Reply #10 on:** August 25, 2011, 09:20:54 AM »

edit=rain becomes dust and unholy writ for jannis and magic charms

I dont like magician snakes here. I havent played with it much but it just doesnt seem good to me. Maybe take it out for Golgotha. Seems like any deck I use Abes Kid in I use Golgotha for EE recursion.

Wall of Protection will kill you if they have Goliath.

I played against someone who played Creation of the World against me on Joseph and it was pure card advantage but I dont know if its worth it.

CotW is most definitely worth it especially if you add Abel.

Geneptions decks are alot better at 50 cards.

Take out
KoT
RBD
Magician Snakes
WoP
Burial
Abes Servant to Ur
Escape to Egypt
Uzzah could almost come out being you only have 2 arts left.

Add
Abel
CotW

why able? he seems an odd choice, why not habakkuk or hosea, or hur and gifts? the green hero wouldnt have to be genesis if you are jsut adding him to play CotW

Townsend · « **Reply #14 on:** August 25, 2011, 11:58:51 AM »

He is another character for Eve and adding a random green hero stops your Benjamin and Zebby.

RTSmaniac · « **Reply #15 on:** August 25, 2011, 06:43:24 PM »

good point. Listen to the master.

sepjazzwarrior · « **Reply #16 on:** August 25, 2011, 09:27:16 PM »

i kinda want to playtest this deck before making big changes like that, but i will keep that advice in mind once i get my pre-order set (anyone know when those will start shipping out from threelions?)

Chronic Apathy · « **Reply #17 on:** August 27, 2011, 09:23:17 PM »

Your defense is way too huge. Egyptians aren't good as a large defense really. If you're committed to playing a big defense, only add Dreaming Pharaoh, Cupbearer, the Egyptian magicians, and Baker, and then make the rest standalone.

sepjazzwarrior · « **Reply #18 on:** August 28, 2011, 12:49:19 AM »

what qualifies as a stand alone? i have kot and uzzah, idk what people really mean by stand alones other than those guys really

lightningninja · « **Reply #19 on:** August 28, 2011, 12:51:02 AM »

Philistine Garrison, Prince of this World, The Twelve Fingered Giant, Red Dragon, etc.

sepjazzwarrior · « **Reply #20 on:** August 28, 2011, 01:20:34 AM »

with all the interrupts out there immunity still counts as a stand alone? i thought immunity was dead

Standalone, as it used to be, is dead in a way. But as a first turn block, it can still be effective.

edit=creation of the world and beheaded in for rain becomes dust and escape to egypt

finally got to playtest the deck. I would like to get it down to 50 but idk what 6 to take out. maybe wall of protection, burial, moses kills egyptian, egyptian snakes, maybe egyptian warden, but idk what else

Gabe · « **Reply #23 on:** September 09, 2011, 02:39:24 PM »

To get to 50:

In - Hopper LS, Burial

Out - Pharaoh's Throne Room, Wall of Protection, Storehouse, Creation of the World, Egyptian Warden, Egyptian Horses, Moses Kills Egyptian, Magician's Snakes

Feast of Plenty = 7 Years of Plenty?

Chronic Apathy · « **Reply #24 on:** September 09, 2011, 02:45:09 PM »

If he takes out Storehouse he may as well take out Dreaming Pharaoh as well.
