Remove botrock for Windows, and satan's seat. Add anti B or womans
-
Windows! Good call. I was planning on dropping Satan's Seat for something in the end, so that soiunds good.
-
what samsons the 6/6 one or 12/6
-
what samsons the 6/6 one or 12/6
6/6!
-
........I have to say this deck is very diffrent idk what to say lol
-
Needs moar delilah ;)
-
need a 12/6 samson
-
need a 12/6 samson
No then you only have one hero instead of 3 eh eh?
-
a 12/6 and 3 6/6
-
a 12/6 and 3 6/6
you cant have a double of a special ability card
-
Maximum of 1 of each per 50 cards in a deck:
• Card that has a special ability (text over the picture). Example: A fifty-six (56) card deck may contain only one Authority of Christ, one Repentance, etc. A one-hundred (100) card deck may contain no more than two Authority of Christ, two Repentance cards, etc. A one-hundred fifty (150) card deck may contain no more than three of any individual special ability card.
Maximum of 3 of each in a deck:
• Single-colored Heroes, Evil Characters and enhance ments that do not have a special ability.
Looks to me like you should be able to have one 12/6 Samson and either two or three 6/6 Samsons in the same deck. I'm not sure, but it looks like that would be within the rules.
-
Edited some stuff. Any more input?
-
Samson's Strength - for Plauge of hail
Raiders' Camp - For Bow and arrow (gold of course)
-
Why do you like negates so much here? Battlewinners would seem to be more useful.
-
What do you do if your opponent plays Journey to Egypt? To help guard against this I would swap out
- One non-KoT EC (your choice) for King Elah
- One enhancement (your choice) for Rizpah's Sack Cloth
- One of something (your choice) for Unknown Nations
I would probably also swap out a second evil character in favor of Jannes, to help ensure you get PTR early. Otherwise you'll might face trouble if your opponent plays either Miriam or Jochabed.
I admit I tend to be overly paranoid about single cards that destroy my entire defense.
-
Yeah. I havent seen anyone play any of those in awhile. Surprisingly. Jannes/Jambres would both be put in if I add Jannes probably. I'm going to wait on that. Unknown Nation is probably a good idea.
-
Apparently I'm the only person in the whole Redemption universe that plays Journey to Egypt on any kind of regular basis. Miriam, however, has become somewhat more popular recently as a female green-brigade prophet.
-

Because 6/6 gives init semi easily.
-
I play it too MJB, but I don't consider myself a good showing of what Redemptia will play.
I see your point RR, but I haven't had a problem with that yet, so I'll wait before I change anything like that.
-
I have never once seen Journey to Egypt in all my time playing Redemption in real life and online, but I have seen several Miriams recently. :dunno:

Blue decks usually have journeys they are annoying
-
He does have Banks of the Nile that will eventually help take care of the ignore, but isn't there a Lost Soul from RoA that stops the ignore, too?
Confusion of Mind and Golden Calf can also take care of the ignore.
-
JTE is CBN which means nothing will stop it.

Oops! Forgot about that tiny detail.
Then I guess he will have to hope the Huge Egyptian or his spear finds it first.... ;)

And that his opponent doesn't have one of 87 blue cards* that let you get Genesis enhancements out of the discard pile. ;)
*Slight exaggeration here.

Haha, my Blue deck doesn't (and never has) have Journey to Egypt. ;)

Proud to be behind the curve? ;)
-
Haha, touché. However, since my Blue deck is defended by Egyptians (plus Elah and KoT), I'd be a little worried about people banding to my Journey'd hero to ignore my defense. Maybe I'm just weird. :P
