"Beginner" T2 deck

This is a deck I put together using all cards that are pretty easy to acquire, but I still think can be competitive particularly in T2 MP. I wanted to have an extra T2 MP deck on hand to lend someone in case there weren't enough people with T2 decks to play T2 MP at smaller local tournaments.

Cards in deck: 105
Lost Souls: 14
   Lost Soul (*/4)

The Searches are from the C/D starter as acquiring 5 of the FooF Searches isn't easy and I don't have that many. The */4 LSs aren't necessary, it's just what I had on hand. Other than those and maybe Zeal x3, the rest of the deck shouldn't be too hard for even a newer player to acquire as most of the duplicated cards are common, uncommon or starter deck cards. A player could also invest in some of the newer and stronger Prophets if they wanted and could easily add New Jerusalem and Hidden Treasures to improve the deck, but I do not have extras of those right now.

Have you checked the REG?
Have you looked it up in ORCID?

For an Egyptian Defense, you definitely need the Anti-Ignore Lost Souls instead of the */4.
Also, I would take out Potiphar for Potiphera. He's awesomer.
I don't like only 3 Egypts, even with the 1 Building Egypt. You might wanna try and fit in one Banks of the Nile/Pharaoh's Court too.
Also, a random King of Tyrus (I know they aren't the easiest to get) is always good. KoT + CBN Enslaved by Egypt or CBN Wonders Forgotten is always fun.

As for the offense, I would take out a Search and Plague of Frogs for 2x Two Bears.
And like you said, I would add Micah and try and find a place for Midwives.

Other than that, looks pretty good.

Enslaved by Egypt has to be used by a Egyptian though in order to capture, so its not much use of KoT (unless we're going to attempt to prove that Tyre was in Egypt.....)

My bad, I didn't have the card in front of me. But ya, KoT + Wonders Forgotten is still nice.
