Join Jayden for a deck and game featuring the new Thieves defense from GoC phase 2.
“They’re Thieves!” This week on Redemption with Jayden we’re checking out a brand new defense from Gospel of Christ phase 2 that tries to use your opponent’s deck against them, which probably isn’t the strongest theme from GoC but I’d definitely say it’s the most fun. To maximize on the fun, I’ve paired it with (mostly) NT Gold, which is also quite fun to play. All together this is actually an upgraded version of the Contender deck from YourTurnGames that is comprised of the same themes and will be available within a short time from the release of this video. The defense is nearly identical, but the offense takes some liberties with adding a few PostEs for hand control, a Gabriel because he’s awesome, and Rob’s New Covenant+Resurrection+Noah combo just for funsies. The game this week is the Lackey Grand Prix #5 game against Jared “Hymn” Strauss, who brought an updated Resetti deck as well as some interesting discussion following the game so be sure to stick around ’til the end!

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.
