I was too busy going into shock that Daclock isn't playing speed to notice anything for advice ;)

You might want to consider at least playtesting a marketplace. Marketplace and Creeping Deciever has some potential that  I think is worth considering early on in the deck. I'd also switch something, maybe a hero or Axe for Torment. Some more healing might help you keep WISC in play for the ignore ability, or give Creeping Deciever/False Teacher/Philetus 3 lives.

I like judas plot here.
I would like to see more utility on evil that can be used in all those side battles. (wages of sin?great image recursion?)
I would like to see Darius Decree here as well and maybe this card Polarius keeps talking about-Christian Suing Another (Ap)?

Hur?
This is the way Lackey gave it to me. All hail the power of Lackey!

I think the biggest thing is it needs to be cut to 56. At 63, this deck seems way too slow imo. I would cut these:

Lost Soul
Captured Ark
The Master's Table
Axe
Large Tree
Chorazin
The Woman at the Well

I would then change one of your ECs out for another EE (battle winner).
My Teams: Atlanta Braves, NY Giants, Miami Hurricanes Football, Duke Basketball, Cleveland Cavs

Edited.

*56 Now
*Added Imitating Evil for Recursion
*Switched Chorazin for Marketplace
*Considerably weakened artifact control (removed Captured Ark and Chaldeans)

The defense has too much foliage and canines and not enough battle-winning imo.
I am not talking about T2 unless I am explicitly talking about T2. Also Mayhem is fine now somehow!

More specifically, you only have 2 battle-winners and some recursion (although one of the battle-winners makes itself un-recurable for 6 turns).

Does a defense like this need a lot of battle winners? The Heretics all can make successful blocks. Sites can save me in certain situations as well.

When I get a chance to play the deck a few times I'll feel better answering those questions myself.

CJSports - Who would you put Simeon in for and why?

This kind of defense doesn't rely on battle winners, but having only 2 is a bit cocksure.

I'd swap Large Tree for Belshazar's Banquet. Torment is also a must for Heretic stall defenses.

I also don't see your offense being able to break through a stacked Herods or Brown defense.

Have you checked the REG?
Have you looked it up in ORCID?
