Personally, I'd add Nadab, Abihu, Priestly Crown and Holy Unto the Lord

As for the Lost soul, either Revealer or Site Doubler

why site guard RR?  I only have a blue site.

Also, what about adding site doubler and revealer?  What LS could go?  Maybe the 1st rounder?

ooo i definitely would say women as snares or king jehoiakin for defense - you need at least one more pg ec to play enh on.  Otherwise, you either get to use Hophni+Phineas OR confusion+DoU.

Hophni + Phin is only for emergencies.  I really try to use Confusion & DoU.

I don't think I need another PG EC; 2 has worked fine.  Woman as Snares would be fun, but Sabbath Breaker helps my off more....
