Redemption with Jayden: Herod’s Post-Nativity Resetti Plot
Join Jayden for an exciting semi-final top cut matchup with Seth M. in the current Lackey Grand Prix.
We made it to the final four in Top Cut of Lackey Grand Prix #5 and this week I got paired up against Seth “bingaling4243” Morlan who piloted a really neat 100-card stack of angels, disciples, herods, Sadducees, and more. Great to see some bigger decks shakin’ up the meta a bit. For my side, I took some inspiration from “agurthewise” and his discovery of a fun interaction with High Priest’s Plot and A New Beginning where HPP protects your evil cards from the reset. Feels a little like the way the LaFS and Pigs interaction worked except this isn’t quite as broken… Still pretty decent though. I incorporated it into a Resetti build but got a little creative with the offensive approach by mixing a new powerful theme with my favorite existing theme so check out the video to see how it all came together!

Jayden started playing Redemption around 2004 when his brothers taught him to play and he attended his first National Tournament in 2005. Since then, he has become a competitive (mostly Type 2) player with a few National titles and, more importantly, has acquired many great friends and mentors through the game. However, in the years leading up to 2020, there has been a downward trend in attendance at some of the big tournaments, Nationals included. As a result, Jayden wanted to start doing something that would help pique and maintain interest in Redemption and he decided to do so in the form of a YouTube channel called Redemption with Jayden, which he started in June 2020 shortly after graduating college. He loves being able to share decks, games, and strategies, and hopes that the channel can be a useful resource for players at every level of the game.
