So I went to random.org and typed in 1-2253 to determine which cards I had to use. I'm not sure if there are 2253 cards in Redemption, but I don't have a excel files of all the cards, so I improvised. I looked in my RTS files and just counted the number of lines in the text file. So I'm sure I'm missing cards and I'm too lazy to check if I have the newest set. So whatever number it shot out was the card I used.
After doing that for about 10 cards, I started to realize how tedious it was to do without an excel file, so I randomly started selecting cards (I'd scroll up and down and move my cursor all around then randomly stop.) I ended up with quite a powerful deck. It's not quite legal, but I feel like there's some synergy going on (will be mentioned at the end.) Anyway, here's the deck.

Thievery of Judas
It is clear that the strongest point of this deck is Timon. Timon is a great card because he allows you to draw two cards if you have fewer redeemed souls than your opponent, but is rarely used at the highest level currently because Redemption players get too greedy and don't think ahead. This deck solves this issue in a simple way: it cannot rescue souls, so you don't have a choice but to be behind. This allows the true strength of Timon to shine.
Thievery of Judas and Eleazar the Guard have nice synergy because after your opponent gives you Table of the Law, you can make sure it doesn't get DON'd while he's in battle. He's essentially like a Lampstand of the Sanctuary that can also make rescue attempts.
It may also be of interest I got both John and Paul, but I did not get George of Ringo. Which is unfortunate, because they were the talented half anyway.
You may notice there's only 49 cards. That's because I accidentally deleted one while formatting the list and I don't remember which one it was.
Well, that was fun. This is what I did instead of writing my paper about the exciting process of OXIDE MOLECULAR BEAM EPITAXY. So extreme.
