Deck Description

This is a variant of my current deck, the idea is to tax players for doing anything while taking their creatures and destroying problems they play.

*I'm aware its light on land, I personally run light and have had minimum issue due to lower mana costs. honestly 18 land is almost the most I ever put in decks.

How to Play

this deck uses accouple mechanics that (in my experience) get you targeted early, so pick your battles and be willing to take a hit. show them fake weakness to appease their hate.

Early game:
get your tax collectors out fast (Blood Seeker, Blood artist and mind crank) to early game weaken your citizens (opponents) while keeping their numbers down with kill spells or creatures.

Mid Game
this alone isn't how you win though, the key is 'captivating vampire' paired with the token generation assuming your being targeted for the annoying minor health pings or milling. this allows you to steal their mid game or key creatures. around this time you should invest in Anowon soon to help keep them down.

Mid to late game:
at this point you should have a small army of tokens, stolen creatures and enough hatred from the surviving players to win. your key creatures are aerialist and nighthawk paired with Indulgent Aristocrat to really boost them. you didn't steal others creatures for nothing after all...
