Join Jayden this week for a game featuring a deck based on a Colossae offense emphasizing cannot be negated enhancement plays on offense and a Romans defense featuring toss effects.
This week on Redemption with Jayden, we’re trying out another theme that didn’t lose much, if anything, to rotation–Colossae, and a little bit of Martyrs on the side. We’re still on our quest to play some unstoppable Enhancements in rotation so we’re running both Stephen and Peter to make Acts Enhancements CBN as well as Scroll of Isaiah for a little CBN convert action. The Colossae theme helps keep the deck moving along so we can get to the more powerful plays while hopefully picking up a Lost Soul or two early on just by fishing out some Heroes early and banding with Epaphras and Claudia. The Roman defense is a little smaller for 57 (58 in this particular case), but the value is there in that you’re usually costing your opponent more cards of offense for each of the blocking options. The game I played here was against Rob Smith who used a very solid, counter-heavy Prophets/Demons deck. We actually played a game before this one too that was really good, but like an amateur I forgot to actually record it. So we got this one which wasn’t quite as exciting, but still showed what both of our decks are about and the importance of using Soul gen… Enjoy!

Jayden started playing Redemption around 2004 and attended his first National Tournament in 2005. Over the years, he has since become a competitive player with National titles across several categories and, more importantly, has acquired many great friends and mentors through the game. Inspired by video content creators from other games, Jayden endeavored to begin the "Redemption with Jayden" YouTube channel in June 2020 to help promote the game during a time where tournament attendance was low and many games were being played online. While the majority of his content is online gameplay, Jayden now enjoys doing live tournament streaming, box openings, deck breakdowns, and much more in hopes that the channel can be a useful resource for players at every level of the game.
