Well, start by replacing 1 Burial with a LS. ;)

I'd take out:
Worse than the First
Jericho
Prison
Bab Banquet Hall
Samaria
Tartaros

And put in a Magician defense.
(I'm not very good at it so someone else can give you the details)

Well the first thing i asked myself when i looked at this decklist is...what is laughter? gen enh immune to all except gold/pg. could work maybe. would be better if we had sideboards.

I like the sites, but any smart player can handle sites quicker in todays meta of protect sites so im not sure how much of a stall these cards would supply.

worse than the first screams to be broken

any blue offence deserves, no- begs to be given Abraham's Descendant. this should also include Golgotha to get back an EE as well. Another great card would be Forgotten History to make sure opponent doesnt get anything back for Abe's kid.

This deck is nowhere near powerful enough to break through in 3-5 turns, and having very little defense means it will lose almost always.

If you want to use a light defense then your offense should be something that draws fast or uses power cards like Disciples or TGT. Also every light defense needs an uzzah.

i tested. not enough heros. defense to light. needs more draw.
