With your advice I can see the potential and the mechanics in both play styles with more clarity. I think I will continue to play with both decks (I play at two shops and alternate every other Friday) and see how they do, however I think the vampire deck will be the one I like better. I'm hoping I can get it to play fast, hold board advantage by summoning lots of cheap creatures, and pack a punch by buffing with other spells before my opponents can offer much
retaliation. I purchased two copies of
Call the Bloodline and I need to grab
Fiery Temper, but I think those suggestions will be great for playing to the discard properties.
My original thought on the werewolf deck was pretty close to what you just explained; that relying on the transformation properties of the cards would leave me vulnerable unless I was ready to play them as regular humans as well. So I'm glad that I wasn't completely off the mark with that. I purchased
Wolf of Devil's Breach and
Titanic Growth to add into that deck as well.
I have been playing for about two months now and I'm just starting to get the rules, etiquette, strategy, and mechanics really nailed down. I just lack the experience that will eventually come with playing. I'm really trying to build a deck myself rather than purchasing a net deck that has already been tried and tested by others, so I appreciate all the help and
insight.
