No Idea How to Build a Deck - Help with my Jericho?

**alexmf** · 07-07-2014, 11:17 PM

My Jericho

deck is literally all over the place and I have no idea what cards to take out and how to focus it etc. Almost every card that I want in my deck at all, I have 4 copies of. This is because I just started playing after a while and I have no idea how much of each card I need to get it when I want. I could really use some help, as you'll see when you look at this 65 card (lol) deck.

***HERO***
Jericho Spellbane

***Allies (16)***
4x Mystic of the Vale

4x Radiant Wisp

3x Knight of the Golden Dawn

3x Zailen Crusader

2x Justicar Alysia

***Abilities (36)***
4x Focused Prayer

4x Smite

4x Sacred Fire Walker

4x Divine Connection

4x Blessed Protection

4x For Unaxio!

4x Wizent's Shimmercloak

4x Zail's Hymn

4x Confluence of Fate

***Items (12)***
4x Incense of Atonement

4x Tome of Blessings

4x Scriptures of the Righteous

TOTAL: 64 cards + Hero

What I'm trying to do is an attachment based Jericho

, making huge Allies that can pretty much never be killed with Radiant Wisp and Knight of the Golden Dawn. Those two combined with Wizent's Shimmercloak, Tome of Blessings, Blessed Protection, Sacred Fire Walker and For Unaxio! make extremely powerful fatties that can pretty much only be killed by spells that instakill (Mind Control, Now You're Mine

).

Here's where it starts to go all over the place. Along with those huge allies, I also have Zail's Hymn

and Mystic of the Vale

because Zail's Hymn just seems way too good to pass up (I had Disrupt Aura

too but I took it out because I thought the Mystic would be enough). I had Embers of the Just

with Severed Ties as well, but I took them out because I thought they weren't worth it and I also already had enough CC with Zail's Hymn

.

Along with these, I have Scriptures of the Righteous

and Confluence of Fate for draw, and the Incense of Atonement

and Justicar Alysia combo. Divine Connection and Zailen Crusader for super cheap recycling Attachments. Smite

for extra damage (thinking this might be a good one to get rid of) and Focused Prayer because I have nothing else to deal with what it deals with. I'd also REALLY like to figure out a way to fit in Healing Touch

both because I have no way to heal and also because of Knight of the Golden Dawn's awesome passive. Another option would maybe be switching Jericho

with Zhanna

? I have no idea.

I've also never played this deck so it probably gets absolutely merked by Rushes.

You need to eliminate a lot of cards you have way too many...I can't tell you what to add or take out but I can say take a look on the forums for the Jericho

builds, also try to keep your deck at a minimum of 42 cards.

This REALLY depends on if you favor your gameplay, or your winning rate...
If you value the style of "Attachment Jericho

", definately take out Alysia, and take out Incense of Atonement. Along with that, take out one Knight of the Golden Dawn; you usually do not need 3 in your deck. Radiant Wisp pretty much has the same role, and Knight is actually much suited for Zhanna

, so...(his ability's literally made for her)

Having said that, take out Smite

, which wouldn't be as useful as before without Alysia.

If you're still worried about deck size after this, make every friendly attachment you have 3 instead of 4 EXCEPT Divine Connection

. With DC, I really find that 4 attachment each is not needed...you don't need too many attachments, because 2 SUCCESFULLY ACTIVE fatties will usually be enough to end the game.
