Found this old suggestion for my Teal-Green/Babs deck in the archives of the deck section and it looked interesting (though obviously not updated for Dom Cap). Is it worth editing this deck for T1 MP or would this theme just not hold up?
If MP doesn't work would it be effective in T1 2P?

Maybe not mulit. but in think that it still could be a good deck.

Fair enough. Any suggestions for what to exchange the extra dominants for, or any other changes to make?

Here are my suggestions:
1. Out Shuffler, Shut Door and Shame for Fool, Resurrect, and Rejoice
2. Out Falling Away, DoN, and Harvest Time for Vain Philosophy
3. Out Riblah (No need for protection in my opinion...most decks don't have protection anyway).
4. Add Ahimaaz
5. Add Phinehas' Spear to equip Ahimaaz
6. Out Nebushasban and Chaldeans for The Winged Lion and King Merodach Baladan
7. Add Head of Gold, Carried into Exile, and Desecrate the Temple for Nerg's Swift Horses interrupt draw and cbn removal of SoG from opponent's deck.
8. Possibly add Suicidal Swine Stampede to play on Lion?
That is basically how I have mine set up except I play Purple Kings offense with it. Those suggestions would have you at 53 cards. But it's your deck...:)

Not enough Heroes for MP, but really if you just cut 3 dominants and added 3 heroes, I bet it would do okay in MP. First Fruits is a gamble with both RBD and Golden Cherubim seeing a lot of use.
Hosea, Joshua HP and maybe Seraph?
I would cut First Fruits for Eli's Sound Advice.
I would cut Chariot for Spiritual Warfare.

I have updated the deck including suggestions already given as well as some further thoughts that I had (as well as physical card availability, in the case of swapping Grapes out for Mayhem, haha).
Any further thoughts/ideas/suggestions?

I would swap Zechariah for Benaiah (WA). Zechariah can't use the Spiritual Warfare/Burning Incense off Hidden Treasures combos, and Benaiah will stop chump blocks and still be able to use Forest Fire and Drawn Sword.

That actually works because I find myself without even a single copy of Zechariah, haha.
