working on turning the type 1 deck into a type 2 if you would like to help with a decklist. I would love x5 words of discouragement and x5 fearfulness with high places. maybe casting lots with pigs ls as well...

cons:large bands on both offence and defense as well as speed. I usually play with rain becomes dust and pigs ls but pigs ls hurts me as well on defence

job hasnt been winning for me lately

i have noticed hand control needs speed to keep the pressure on even though Jobs Faith is devistating. The only thing is you have to be able to play it

If you're going to build a Job deck, Job better be winning for you. As far as speed goes, you're going to have to rely on the defense. Silver and Blue don't have much good speed. Book of Hozai is okay, but with Job it's only decent at best.

If I were you, I'd change the offense a bit. Use some heroes like Simeon, Dan, Tribal Elder for blue and throw in The Generous Widow, Martha, and splash in Hur.

Then, use some enhancements such as Buying Grain, Dove, Burning up the Chaff, Shoes of Peace, Book of Jashar, Hospitality of martha, water from a rock, and kindness.

The reason you want some mutual card draw is to fill up your opponent's hand while you attack so you have cards to make them discard while you block. Not to mention to also draw and replenish your discarding enhancements.

Why not throw in Death & Hades for the Defense? You should consider running Murmuring and/or Burning up the Chaff to remove any recurison cards your opponent may have to counter your hand control.

with all those heros around you cant play Jobs Faith.

disciple_drew · « **Reply #7 on:** May 17, 2011, 04:59:10 PM »

Personally I believe, the number of cards combined as a theme outwiegh the need for a single card. Putting those cards all together in a deck would make it run more effectively especially with characters where their abilities keep activating when they enter battle compared to a one time use enhancement. Just my thought and I thought it would help your deck.

The problem is that that "one time enhancement" can discard every evil card in their hand and wins battles surprisingly often. If you are not using Job's Faith to its fullest, then you shouldn't use it at all.

That instant -3 to their hand can be huge, especially when you hit them again on defense. If you can continue to hammer them turn after turn with Job's Faith early into a game, their defense has a VERY hard time getting set up.

How would you recur the Job's Faith? Besides, it's a blue enhancement it could still be used with the cards I've stated above. By the way the card only makes the opponent discard 3 not their entire hand.

Jubilee and Abraham's Descendant.

It doesn't work with other blue heroes because Job has to be the only human you have in play.

As already stated, Jubilee + Abrahams Descendant. Also, Its quite lame when played on any other hero. Also, i said can. Considering they probably have no more than 8 cards in their hand at that time, so unless 50% or more of their hand is evil, then you're likely to discard every evil card they have.

you can also search up Coat of Many Colors with Attending Angel and play it or Sent to Serve and place it on your Job for pre block effect
