You could use Mask of Self -glorification for an Artifact killer and it would be unnegatable with Carcasses up. Or you could include a couple Ashdods and play any color artifact killer you want on a Philistine.

I would use btn enhs on your defense. BTN enhs/JiP/Wrath is mean. But 5 Wrath is overkill. Also I do not like Grain Offering I would switch that out for Zeal or something. That or go teal/blue. Playing RTC with Jacob and Burning Incense with your offering is nice.

I agree that I have to many Wraths.  I'll probably drop a couple Wraths/Hungers for a couple Mask of Self-glorification even though I hate the fact it doesn't negate the art, or possibly a couple more Bringing Fear (more FBTN madness).  I might drop out the grain belt stuff possibly I liked the fact that it adds immunity for my terr, and gives my characters immunity to go along w/ Z-temple protection.  Though it may be overkill, and leave me even more open to site decks owning me.  If I drop the 5 Grain Offering, I'll drop the Alter of Burnt offerings for some Priestly Crowns.  I dunno what I'd replace them w/ though.  Maybe a couple Jacobs, and 3 x RTC, or other teal stuff.  I like the Ashadod idea as it gives me some better art killers, and something to d/c for trumpet blast in the rare situation an opponent doesn't have an evil fort or sites in play.

I've used a teal offense for a while in T2 and grain offerings and Altar of Burnt Offerings can actually be a nice combo.  But looking at the black defense I use black for T2 multiplayer because its fun to wipe out everyones offense with Wrath of Satans. Not sure how well it works in 2 player but for multiplayer it can be a really nice defense to slow people down, but you would need the teal covenant that protects the house of Eleazar
I never want to grow up, hmmm maybe thats why I'm a youth pastor.

I was thinking about adding in some purple and take advantage of the OT placement.  Maybe substituting in 3/4 of King Josiah, Melchizedek, King Jotham, and King Hiram with some Peace Treaties.  Hiram would give me another way to get out Z-Temple faster, as well as could pull Storehouses and could replace Zacc.

Try it out and see if it works. Teal purple is strong without place enhs though to be honest, all that interrupt and CBN scares most defenses.
