i have a decent fbtn deck, but cant find a good defense to go with it. i currently use egyptians, and like the deck discard, but it just doesnt work that well. What goes well with fbtn?
keep in mind that i dont have much grey at all, and not much brown

Last year's National tournament winner used a Pharisee defense with his FBTNB deck. It is a compact, speedy defense that won't win the long game, but has enough decent blocks to stall while your offense wins in the short game. Note, FBTNB is usually the way to go nowadays, because it allows you to use Weapons and WC abilities. I haven't seen anyone use a straight up FBTN deck in quite a while, as there are significantly more CBN/CBP cards that can stop one FBTN Hero at a time.

Actually, my deck is fbtnb, I just listed it wrong, didn't know the difference

I actually had a chance to play the national champion at the iowa state tournament. Martin? is that his name? I had a different deck then, and didnt do very well. But i saw his offense and that inspired me to look at a fbtnb offense.
