Again, I know it's 63 cards. I like it that way.

More Isaiah Angels? That's all I can think of.

With this many Assyrians, I really wonder why you don't run Protection of Jerusalem.

I agree, and as a side note, would it almost be worth to, at the very least, bump up a Prophets/Assyrian deck to 56 with extra Assyrians to use PoJ on? I've been skeptical of it, and haven't had it in my offense-heavy Prophets/Assyrians so far, but with a slightly larger deck size, the payoff might be worth it.

My Prophessyrian deck is 56 with PoJ, just for reference.

I think I'd like to get an Elder's opinion on this one, you know, someone with authority.

Disclaimer: KIDDING. What kind of record do you have on that brow? (I am, for the first time, realizing there's no "N" in your name.)

I prefer a mix of Assyrians and Magicians over straight Assyrians.

Ok, so what's good for Magicians? I might start looking for those.

I THOUGHT THAT I BROUGHT THAT DECK DOWN TO 56!

See 2nd paragraph and last sentence of the first post.

I've been going back and forth over PoJ, and the main reason it isn't there is because I don't have room. I had to take out some stuff that I liked to fit in the Micah tin stuff I got on Saturday. Suggestions on how to fit it in? And maybe also my Harvest Time (since my bro never draws souls? )

But you never trided it that way
