Here's the deck basics, 61 total - 8 events, 31 creatures, 14 spells, 7 fortunes and a Cassandra in a pear tree (Merry Xmas BTW)

Hero: Cassandra

I don't "think" listing my deck is pertinent to the question(s) but if you guys think it'll be worth doing I'll do it just let me know.

EDIT!!! I registered to MMDOCKING and built my current deck

Feel free to provide critique, I have a tough skin so if the deck is worth cursing over I can dig that.

I cannot figure out how to make Praetorians/Sentinels work well (as in they are noticeable) because they both have jack squat for damage AND even with their Melee Guard they seem to drop in two turns after deploy (Sentinels are weaker I know but even the Praetorians don't really...work after 10 turns) unless I'm missing something that's supposed to synergize with them. That and they're extremely open to removal from a lot of spells I feel like I'm missing the point of them. I have mostly the stock Haven deck so no Wolf Commanders or fancy tricks. I have one Warrior Seraph (have three) and most opinions are against her but I find her to strike a great balance in the game especially with a bless up on her. I don't use Devoted Sisters or Vestal mostly because I want to get as close to 59 cards as possible. I have two Champions of Elrath which are my game saving blockers sometimes. But I don't see these actually meshing well with the Praetorians or Sentinels, or even the Elite Squire. I carry 4 Bless cards but the damage is still so low that having them run the melee column and bloat it up (especially when I need my Tithes) seems to be counterproductive.

Alright that was a bit of a ramble. Basically I am not sure I understand the "ethos" of the standard Haven deck and since I'm BRAND spanking new I don't have options yet. I am working on a Necro deck because I got Nurgle somehow...
