If you changed the defense, this could be an A-bomb deck.  When I looked at the offense, that is what I thought it was.  So much drawing for the opponent.

Luke/Greek is an awesome combo that could be quite effective is used correctly. Especially with new Greek charecters itll be even better.

The reason I was thinking pharisees was because I already have a lot of the cards for it. I don't have a lot of cards, so I'm kind of limited to making a deck with cards that I have or can get easily. But I'll look into greeks. I've never used them, but maybe I could get enough to do it.

I switched it around to Greeks and Pharisees. Opinions on both offence and defense much appreciated.

Since Priest of Zeus is unique, I would consider dropping one of him and adding an Antiochus.

I would also drop the Generous Givings since that is an optional draw for the opponent. Maybe add some Elymas Struck Blind for those.

Drop one Simon Tanner for a Martha.

Covenant with Death doesn't really seem to fit too well. Sure, it's nice with Paul on offense but it really cripples your defense. Your territory-class characters suffer, and your Pretensions and even Meeting the Messiahs aren't quite as effective. Your Proud Pharisees are very important to your speed and CwD doesn't seem to for all that well anyways. I'd take that out for The Entrapping Pharisees.

Ah yes. I originally had added it to protect the Aboms. But it would counteract the protection they would get from the stoic philosophers. So it's a bit redundant. Removed.

Darius' Decree is a good way to protect Aboms. That's what I used in my pre-TEC Abom deck.

I would probably have it, but I don't have one at the moment. If I can get my hands on one, I would put it in.

Wow, I thin if I make it, I will at least partially take you up. I'm going to another tournament at the end of this month though, so I'd like to have most of them for that. But there's a few cards I'd add if I could have them, so if I'm there is certainly love of I can borrow a few.

Do you have a trade page? Because I have almost every TEC card available!

Haha no. I don't have enough cards to trade, unfortunately. Essentially all of my good cards are in my deck.

What I did to really boost my collection at the beginning was I bought a complete set of Warriors, Women, Original and Prophets. This gave me lots of "new" cards to work with and trade. However I don't think Cactus still sells those anymore. :(

I've been playing for 6-7 years now, I just don't play often enough to justify spending the money to bolster my collection that much.

I have been playing for a little over a year now, my whole family loves the game! We started a playgroup over here in the Windy City!

I would take out The Holy Spirit, you don't have a lot of Fruits of the Spirit GE's.

Hmm. Maybe. It's nice for recurring and searching for kindness.

For your defense why not add Seized by Rioters?

This is T2, there's no need to worry about dom slots since he can have 14 dominants if he wanted...

Agreed, but is it worth it just for Kindness?  If I'm adding THS, there better be more than 2 cards to pull out, even if I can recur them.  And there are some great fruits you can add (if Paul is going to be big in this deck, even Love is a good add).

Also, on dominants, is the lack of them due to card ownership or planning to leave them out?

Lastly, fun fact, a 100-105 T2 deck finally has to deal with the horrors of dom cap ;)  5 more dominants from I/J on now leaves us at 18, and most of them are good adds to some deck or other.
