Deck Updated

I replaced Reach with Zerubbabel (himself).
Use the Mad Bomber to rescue his Province.

I would take out Reach and Grain Offering.

I would add Provisions and Go into Captivity.

If I took out Joiada and Grain Offering, could I add Provisions and Go into Captivity? (I already took out Reach, and Joiada would be relatively worthless without Grain Offering.)

If you really want an extra lost soul to dump in their territory, Hopper is a way better choice.
Wow, Hopper is nowhere near as good as Slave. First of all, Slave lets you bring out a human EC of your choice. Also, Slave can't be HT'd (and I can't tell you how many times I've had that problem with Hopper). True, Hopper works as soon as you draw it (and lets you draw another card), and Slave is just extra space until you use it, but that doesn't really make a difference, at least to me.

OK. Personally, i think slave stinks, unless you have a brown or gold deck.  Yeah, he becomes a lost soul and lets you draw an ec, but it can be countered in many ways:
1. btn on first turn (it has happened to me before, but not w/ slave)
2. btn choose the blocker
3. choose the blocker w/ joel, negates specail ability, he gets initiative to kill you
4. rain becomes dust
I'd say put in the hopper :)
Not to mention hezekiah's signet ring. And yes, I agree, no slave. Put in something better.
