Deck Description

Just a more streamlined vampire deck that took me to top four at a recent FNM and won out against BUG/RUG and gave Caw Blade a run for its money.

Side board Vampire Hexmage. With the new mirrodin block that is out now counters will be a big problem on your creatures -1/-1. With the new ability poliferate that means planeswalkers and other levelers can go up quick.

Vampire Nighthawk for the life gain and the death touch Lacerator is cool but against a white life gain deck then he is pointless cause there gonna keep gaining while you start loosing life. Nighthawk will help the balance a little.

The Nighthawks are too high for the curve; I love them, they serve a huge utility role, but they are just too expensive for a deck of this speed.

Standard lifegain doesn't work out THAT well, especially with my removal aspect. If I go up a proliferating, infect, lifegain white with a heavy planeswalker base and artifact ramp, I'll let you know how it fares, but I've stomped on slower decks(considering that many planeswalkers are 4+ mana) by turn 4. The idea is to strictly overwhelm with creatures, and one of the main mechanics is sacing the Bloodghasts to Viscera Seer while a Highborn is out for my lifegain and more damage. If I'm up against something that has that many counter-producing cards for monsters, that's what the flampler is for. This deck is competitive, and every deck has match issues. The balance is the weenie aspect and the speed. A 3 mana creature in my opening hand severely lessens my massive drop potential.

Thanks for the comment, though!

Just updated with what I ran at FNM. I love the Ascension, because it's like having two other Highborns on the field.
