Judgment at Kishon
Baal’s Defeat is a Rare Event from the Israel Age, costing 4 faith and unleashing a powerful area-of-effect attack: it deals damage to all enemy beings and their player equal to a die roll (D6). This card introduces strategic volatility, capable of serving as a single-turn board wipe or delivering unexpected burst damage.
This card's verse is 1 Kings 18:40:
"And Elijah said unto them, Take the prophets of Baal; let not one of them escape. And they took them: and Elijah brought them down to the brook Kishon, and slew them there."
Strategic Use In Gameplay
Baal’s Defeat is a dynamic tool designed for high-risk, high-reward moments. It can completely overturn board states or apply lethal damage to key threats, but the outcome depends on the roll. With the potential to clear large boards and swing momentum, it’s best used in decks that excel at tempo control, managing risk, or maximizing variance.
Synergies and Plays:
RNG Board Clear: Ideal for clearing enemy-wide threats in one turn, resetting the board when you’re behind or looking to maintain dominance.
Game-Swing Potential: A high roll can decisively end the match; even moderate rolls pressure midrange enemies and reduce healing requirements.
Control Synergy: Integrates seamlessly with control decks that need efficient board reset tools.
