Suggestion: Convert your hero to rescue with after your opponent has decked out. This ensures they only have 8 (10 with tables of the law) at most to block with.
Site Lockout defense.
Basic Idea: Use sites, Site discard/steal cards, Discard/remove all cards in battle cards, and site special abilities to keep your lost souls safe within your own sites. Choosing colors not often used will help with this. I suggest three of one color site and three of another just in case you play a deck that uses one of them. Cards suggested to go in any defense like this: Peraguam, King Zimri, torment, and Self.
Hero Destruction
Basic
Idea: KILL ALL HUMANS...And Heroes. Just destroy all heroes,
Use an artifact destroyer to kill their hero recursion artifacts, and
watch them have their own version of 'Heroless'. Suggested cards: Great
image, Wrath of Satan, Destruction of Nehushtan, Pride of Simon, Imitating evil and Lying unto God.Enhancement/Evil character lock out
Basic Idea: Use A mix of immunity, fight by the numbers, recur, banding and other character abilities mixed with can't be negated battle enders/winners and artifacts to make it so your opponent either runs out of heroes or just can't bi-pass your defense.
Egyptian capture
Basic Idea: Capture opponent's heroes. I used Egyptians because they are very good at it and have a protection fort for when I use Authority of Christ to discard all evil characters. With all their heroes as lost souls they can't make any rescues. Cards suggested: Egypt,Pharaoh's throne room, Egyptian warden, Going into captivity, and other Egyptians/captures. See a sample of this defense on the sample deck page.

Offense!
Suggestion: Use Lampstand of the Sanctuary and tabernacle with Holy grail to keep it from being destroyed.Saul/Paul Abuse:
(Most Popular)
Basic idea: Convert Saul to Paul. Then use built on the rock to make it so he can't be captured, converted, or removed. Since most discards can be negated use interrupt the battle cards and battle winners. Save Angel of the Lord for Simon the magician when playing against a black defense.
Wear 'um down offense
Basic
Idea: Use I am patience and negate and
Interrupt cards to make your opponent run out of
enhancements to play. Weakness: Cards that recur
enhancements and immunity.Multi attack offense
Basic Idea: Use a small evil character as your hero and use enhancements for them that can win in any situation. Only weakness is fighting the same kind of blocker three times in a row. Example: Rescue one blocked by King Saul, use repentance then they Christian martyr you. Rescue two Blocked by Esau use plague of frogs to shuffle Esau back in. One lost soul for you! Rescue attempt three blocked with Abner. Uhoh!
Play first offense
(Suggested but not tested. If you have any results with this offense email them to me.)
Convert Paul or An evil prophet to green and use Hidden Treasures to play the first enhancement. Or Convert an evil character with an enhancement attached that lets them play first (E.G. The Rabshekah and two thousand horses.)
