Hey guys, I havent really played in awhile (since about Priests, and my deck only contains a few cards from it) and i was wondering what I should do to update it.
The deck i had was a Red (CotH splash) & Pale Green deck.
Whats been going on with them lately?

Well, you should probably pick up the Faith of Our Fathers tin that contains red (I forget exactly which tin it is). But it contains Caleb, Men of Judah, and Army of Simeonites. Basically, Men of Judah is 11/11, and Army of Simeonites is 12/12, and each has the special ability that when they are about to be discarded, they are instead returned to your territory with abilities reduced 3/3. On top of that, Caleb bands to Men of Judah, and Men of Judah bands to Army of Simeonites. That's a whole lot of beatdown, and I have a friend who plays with those three heroes.

Is there two FoOF that contains Red? Cause I bought one but it didn't have Those Cards. It had the Red Version of Gabriel along with Grey for Defense

Hiding deep within these boards is a very successful Red/Pale Green deck (http://cactusgamedesign.com/message_boards/index.php?topic=12788.msg201493#msg201493) deck from this tournament season. Check it out and takes some notes.

Yep, there's two, you bought the one that I like better. ;)
Basically red isn't ALL that great... although prof underwood made a red and pale green deck that worked VERY well. So it can be done, although pale green is the main reason why. Confusion and a lot of good blocks can help you win no matter what offense you choose to have. :)

Thanks for the shout out guys. That "Christmas Deck" was probably the most fun deck that I have played all year. I would probably make a few changes to it now, and it would still struggle against the very top competition. But as far as a fun game to play with or against, it would be hard to find anything better.

No offense, but after a brief look... I really didnt like it.
I do more of a CBTNB thing... kind of... im not entirely sure cause i havent seen my deck for awhile.

After a little bit of digging (I checked the card index in the online REG), and apparently Caleb, Men of Judah, and Army of Simeonites were in Faith of Our Fathers Tin I (1). It also comes with the Red Weapon-Class Enhancement Caleb's Sword, which allows you to discard an evil Weapon-Class Enhancement.

that sounds like something i would put in

Ok, so Im gonna call up the people that have my deck in storage, tell them im looking for a little black box with cards in golden sleeves along with my guitar and pick them up after "work", go back to "work" and i really didnt need to go that far.... but i'll see what i can do about getting my old deck up onto here and asking for updates to it.
Thanks
