W/B
westvale abbey and br vampire mix was exactly what I was going for -
call the bloodline is sideboarded already, I've found that it gets run over by things like
Declaration in Stone too easily to mainboard, but it's too good to leave out completely.
The main strategies I'm going for are pressure and flexibility, nobody expects a
Sin Prodder to come down a 4/3 menace because of an
Olivia, Mobilized for War trigger that discards
Fiery Temper for madness and then the following turn a
Goblin Dark-Dwellers re-casting that
Fiery Temper.
The deck's main goal is to be just barely pressuring and aggro enough that it forces the opponent to do something, and do something fast, but the deck doesn't plan on saving all of the lower tier creatures to create that pressure, instead the goal is actually to sacrifice as much as possible to
Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet, Ormendahl and Profaned Prince. The deck plans to switch gears once the opponent has found an answer to the vampire spammy shenanigans by going big instead of going wide -
Elusive Tormentor is my natural pivot for this strategy because it's so difficult to take it out but blocks so well that it can generally shift the game pace single handedly.
I've found that
Archangel Avacyn //
Avacyn, the Purifier's main purpose is that if my opponent survives the vampire rush, she can nuke the whole board once they've launched a counter-attack and start fighting in the air, it destroys strategies like G/W tokens fairly effectively I've found.
That's what's going on in my head at least, hopefully that helps clear it up a little bit, what would you suggest with this strategy in mind? I know kourinick had mentioned how much more efficient
shambling vent is but moving around
needle spires has sorta screwed me in my playtesting so far, do you have any different suggestions there as well?
Thanks for the suggestions all it helps so much
