I call this "Servant TGT" due to the lack of purple in this Garden Tomb deck (purple=royalty).  I am really enjoying using Ehud in different decks.  He's my favorite hero right now.  I use Jael in this deck, too.  It's been fun to play!

Your deck looks really cool, Scott.  Many of the Garden Tomb basics will a few "new" fun ideas like side battles and Sampson's Sac pwnage! 

Do you feel that Brass Serpent is better than Chariot of Fire?

No Falling Away?  To make The Garden Tomb work you have to give up a Lost Soul so you're bound to have a use for it.

It seems like Uzzah would be a shoe in with all the Artifact/Covenent/Curse in the deck.  He'd give you another character to play DoM and HP on since King Zed often gets the ol' AotL.

I really like 'He is Risen' with the "Garden Girls" because it provides territory removal that gets around almost all of the protection Forts.  Then again, you've got a lot of territory removal already.

Way to be trendy and unique at the same time!  ;)

I'd recommend... I am (? the one that makes it so that if your rescue wasn't successful you can convert a non-wc evil character). You attack with Ahimaaz, then retreat. You can do it as many times as you want to convert their entire army. :D
As a national champion, I support ReyZen deck pouches.

I initially had Chariot of Fire, but found that I was using my other arts so much I had a better chance of holding Brass Serpent in my hand than using CoF.  On the other hand, I have used Brass Serpent in one game where I later regretted it.

I stopped using Falling Away a long time ago.  Although the Law of Averages should even out its usage, I never seem to get any opportunities.  Murphy trumps.

I've gone back and forth on Uzzah, mostly because I just know that I'll need the artifact I discard with him.  (Suspicious of Murphy...)

'He is Risen' is one of a few cards I have in my alternate list.  Most decks I build I keep cards that may or may not get added to the final product, but I keep them around just in case.

To be quite honest, when I started building this type of TGT deck I completely forgot about I Am Patience.  In my earlier versions (pre-2007) of what I call EC-annhilation decks, I used I Am Patience.  During 2007 and after I started drifting away from it.  I'll have to consider how I would add it in.

Thanks for your comments!
