Why Herod 1? I think Herodian would be a better fit.

Hmm, I suppose you are correct. Is Herodian considered a "herod" for card's like Rash Oath and Herod's Treachery?

it doesn't say that, but I'd assume so since he has herod in the title and he can do something related to herods. as much of a herod as Herodias is, at least.

Herodian is NOT a Herod to my knowledge. I can be wrong but I believe he was a helper to herod.

I'm pretty sure the herodians were just people who supported the herods politically, kind of like Republicans and Democrats. Herodian is not a Herod, nor does he have Herod in the title (according to the REG at least) so he can't even band to another copy of himself.

Herodias also doesn't have Herod in the title according to the REG, and I don't believe she would be considered a Herod either. Especially since Salome's ability differentiates between the two.

I was responding to this.
