file Helena and the Hunters

Helena and the Hunters was created by Ashur
I built this as a joke, around Helena being immune to the Abyssal Hunter damage. Also the Villein-Lilith-combo and the Catatonic Fear-Target Vitals-combo (Vitals also works great with Hunters, striking for 5)

1. How do you intend to oust?
With Fame of by bleeding.

2. How do you intend to keep from being ousted?
Deflection, blocking.

3. What do you want your ready region to look like (ie, how many guys are you planning on getting out)?
Helena merged, a Las-weenie and some Abyssal Hunters.

4. What do you want your average turn to look like?
Villein-Liliths-trick. Hunters pinging vamps. Las-weenie puts Hunter into play. Helena blocking/bouncing.

5. What's your metagame like? How do your opponents play?
In casual games, very violent. In tournaments less violent.

6. What problems have you observed with the deck in play?
None really, but I guess I´ve been lucky so far. I would like help with the proportions of the cards, they are rather

random now.

Sorry, no ARDB on this computor.

First thought:

You need Wider Views. Probably 2 or 3. You do NOT want to be stuck with 3 Helena and no Helena ADV or worse, all Helena and nothing else. You have 8 Helena's in this crypt.
Epiphany should be out...

I like the idea, but not a fan of parts of the deck, first Tension plus allies and winnes often leads to pain for you, even thou the hunters are some what sturdy, I wonder just how often they might get popped (any deck with agg strikes well take the hit 3 to kill them).

also not a huge fan of cat fear and target vitals. It's not a bad combo, but is it enough to torp the right vamp at the right time?

WMRH should be KRCG, a Lost in Crowds and your burning pool. The Unmasking would be nice, I would also run Mr. Winthrop and the two named bleed retainers.

Just my two cents

I am afraid the hunters don't cut it anymore.

Gregory Winter steals blood at +1 stealth
Impundulu steals blood at +1 stealth
The Young Bloods burn 2 blood at +1 stealth
Ossian rushes at +1 stealth, usually burning 2 blood

For removing blood from vampires, these are all better choices than the hunters, even in your deck.

Tension is ok. Just not drop it if you don´t like the seating :)

Well, the cat feat-target vitals combo is not ideal in this deck, when no vamp has superior PRE from start. But I like it, for fun, cause target vitals is nice with the hunters.

OK for KRCG. Mr W, JS and Tasha can go in. But Unmasking... I don´t know. I am not sure I will profit more than others on it in my enviroment. But I guess I can choose not to drop it if in a bad spot.

Thanks for the tips.
