Nameless

your deck is a tad offbalanced

switch out 3 liner for 2 liner
antiburial for wanderer

and i think you have 1 too many good brigades

you'll need to shrink it down to 2 and plus net can backfire on ya if your not careful
and your deck needs pride of simon

No, keep Jephthah. Take out JT, you don't need it.

what's better about the 2 liner ???

Title: Re: the average deck
Post by: drb1200 on August 28, 2010, 06:02:58 PM

Nothing. The 3-liner is better.

that what i thought

Actually, the 2-liner is better in some situations.  If your opponent has half of a 2-liner and you have a higher score, in some cases you might want to rescue the other half with SoG/NJ.  You can't do that with the 3-liner.

That is true, but in multi player 3-liner is awesome.

i think adding another samaritan would help the samaritan water jar a bit for chance in drawing a samaritan

I agree with most of 3-Liner's changes. I would still not use JT; philistine outpost would be a most welcome boost to the defense I think. I also think Good Samaritan would be a better choice than Lazarus, because he can recur Kindness and is a Samaritan for the Jar. I would also try to fit in Words O' Encouragement and either John or Elijah(for TGT support, Transfig, and a purple character for AOC). 

I don't think that you need john or elijah since you have lydia. But philly outpost was supposed to be in but I just forgot to add it. my bad.
