Redemption with Jayden: On the Night He Was Betrayed
Join Jayden for a themed deck focused on the important time at hand of remembering the great sacrifice of Jesus specifically the night He was betrayed.
This week is Holy Week or Passion Week, which means that today (Thursday) is Maundy Thursday or Holy Supper, which is the day we remember the Last Supper where Jesus ate the Passover meal with His disciples on the night that He was betrayed. So, naturally, the deck I built for this week focused on the theme of that night, incorporating most, if not all, of the Rotation-legal cards with references from Matthew 26:17-75, Mark 14:12-72, Luke 22:1-65, 1 Corinthians 11:17-34, John 18:1-27, a few from John 13, and lastly a few select cards that fit the theme from other places in the Bible. Putting the deck together was a fun challenge and it ended up being pretty splashy, but I think it can at least hold its own. I played the deck against Jared S (Hymn), who matched the non-competitive nature of my deck with a budget-friendly version of his Patriarchs/Edomals build. It was a very fun game to play and I hope it’s just as much fun to watch!

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.
