Hi everyone, I wabt to ask you for advice. I havent been playing magic for few years so my knowledge is kinda outdated. I want to ask for your opinion about this deck. What it lacks, what shoud I change? Is there any must "have cards" for red/black vampire deck? Any advice would be appreciated.

Well first, I'd like to welcome you back to Magic: The Gathering! About your deck, though:First, I'd say swap out the Guild Gates for 4x Dragonskull Summits. Same thing, a land that taps for R or B, but it only comes in tapped if you don't have a swamp or mountain, so you can actually use it the turn its played. Necropolis Regent is stupidly wonderful in a deck like this, and so is Olivia Voldaren. However, I've always been of the mind that it's better to have 3 of one card, than to have 2 and 1. 1-of's are fine, but 2-of's just take up space that could be better used to increase the odds of finding your 1-of. I would recommend either 3 regents or 3 olivia's, but not a 2/1 split.Falkenrath Marauders is a powerful vampire card. I would recommend swapping him for the Nighthawks. Nighthawks are powerful, but they don't synergize with the vampiric mechanic of your other vamps. In case you don't know him, Marauders is a 3RR, 2/2 flyer with haste. every time he damages an opponent, he gets Two +1/+1 counters. Stacked with rakish heirs and necropolis Regents, they quickly get insane.Curse of Stalked prey. Oh, I cannot put into words how much I love this card. That is all.Curse of the Bleeding heart might be of use to you. It saw use in all of my vampire decks. The card makes your opponent lose one life every turn. One is a nuisance. Two is a threat. Three or four is cataclysmic. Havengul Vampire is a 4 mana 2/2 that gets a +1/+1 counter when he hits an opponent. Pretty old hat, right? But he also gets a counter whenever something dies. Anything. At all. So that's something to think about.Heirs of Stromkirk continue the powerful vampiric mechanic you're seeing, with the added bonus of Intimidate.Markov Blademaster. Vampire, 1RR, 1/1. Gets a counter whenever she hits someone. And she's got Double Strike. I think you know where I'm going with this. Can you say +2/+2 per round~? goes in as a 1/1, hits for 3. Goes in as a 3/3, hits for 7. 4/4, hits for 9. Simply beautiful.That's about all the advice I've got concerning Vampires. Whether you take it or not, I hope it helps you in some way, shape or form. You were playing 7 years ago, I just started about 2 years ago, so I'm certainly no expert, I'm just sharing what I know works for me. I hope my advice was helpful, and no matter what, I hope you have fun playing again!-Typewryter
