Samson, Wild Honey – Base Art – Common Israel Soldier – AlephTau Set – Bible TCG

Strength Born from Surprise

Samson, Wild Honey is a Common Soldier Being from the Israel Age, costing 6 faith with 4 strength and 7 hope. His Prophecy ability activates when he’s created, granting adjacent beings +1 strength, a potent board-building tool that rewards proper positioning and enables synergistic plays in Soldier tribal builds.

This card's verse is Judges 14:9:

"And he took thereof in his hands, and went on eating, and came to his father and mother, and he gave them, and they did eat: but he told not them that he had taken the honey out of the carcase of the lion."

Strategic Use In Gameplay

Samson brings both board presence and support utility in one package. His sturdy 4/7 body grants resilience, while his adjacent buffs ensure your lineup enters combat stronger. As a Soldier, he fits into decks that value fellow soldiers, and his creation effect plays nicely with event sequencing or board setup strategies, offering both tempo and synergy.

Synergies and Plays:

Adjacent Buffing: Prophecy gives +1 strength to both adjacent units, place Samson where he can maximize the impact across your board.
Positioning Payoff: Combining Samson with lower-cost Soldiers ahead of his turn ensures your creatures hit harder as soon as he is summoned.
Soldier Synergy: Complements decks built around Soldier tribal themes, think buff lines, teamwork setups, and midrange value tactics.
