I’m only seeing 11 doms. Is this due to limited access? Namely, Chronicles of the King would be worthwhile, especially with a big Marriage Covenant band.

I think Elimilech is good enough to run multiple copies of to access whoever you need and generate additional speed. Same for Land of Moab.

Devotion of Ruth would be good in the reserve IMO (or moving one of your Naomi’s blessings). Shared Meal off of Ruth to withdraw all ECs CBN is solid.

I would add a 2nd David and/or try to build in more ways to reset him to non-meek.

I agree that multiple copies of Elimilech seems necessary for both speed and consistency. I'd probably also want to see multiple copies of Love Righteousness. That becomes any Hero you need. With so many single copies of Heroes those two cards are going to be extremely important for your offense to function well.

Lying Prophet is good enough to have two copies. Even though they aren't Moabites, the King Rezen > Damascus > Commander of the Chariots > Gold Shield package feels worth including. You could also up The Deceiver copies to help ensure you have the character(s) you need on defense.

Yeah, I think I would probably use three copies of Elimelech to make sure you have the Heroes you want as early as possible. Similar reasoning for adding a second copy of Land of Moab, especially because it also grabs you defense. Since you have Music Leader I think Gabe's right about using at least one copy of Love Righteousness. Since you have a Ruth Meets Boaz then you probably don't need more than one. I'd probably try to find a slot for another copy of Marriage Covenant as well.

Burial might be okay with Sheol, but without meek LSs it's not all that great with the new change to Rescuer's Choice. In case you missed it, the LS is now chosen at the end of battle so Burial doesn't block unless it removes all available LSs. Doubt, Falling Away, Mayhem, and even Rubble and Dust would be decent options to replace Burial and/or just add them if you want since you have 3 Dom slots left. Like Kye said, Chronicles would be a good add too.

I think Covenant Breakers LS is a bit too slow. It kinda works with Preparing to Return, but I'd still rather see Exiles and/or Remnant in those slots.

I don't currently have Remnant or Exile Lost Souls
Lost Soul selection is currently OT for Covet LS and Moabite protection (Balak, King Mesha) but it limits some of my options. I would rather cut the covenant breakers and have Lawless or Dull.

Ruth Meets Boaz (J)
