Perhaps some Ahrimanes deck that is not so good at blocking?
What IS that?You need to add "Toolbox without bounce"! That's the devil's work.

Another write-in for dedicated [AUS] Walls.
"Nope, I block. Hands for one."
"Nope, I block that too. Walking Stick for 2."
"Nope, I untap and block that."
"Oh, my turn? I untap my minions and will be ready for you Mr. Predator. I didn't get Smiling Jack, so no Masters to play. I bleed for 1, I know I'll know I'll get blocked, so expect Walking Stick for 2. I move one to an uncontrolled with Montreal, your turn Mr Prey. Please don't oust 3 people, m'kay?"
Intercept-bleed (Stickmen) or Intercept-combat (ANI, Tzimice) are ok......but decks which do nothing but beg to be blsed for 5 at 2 stealth (cause they generate no independent offense) annoy me.

I stopped hating in 2004, before I even knew of vtes, so I didn't vote here.
Decks I dislike to see in tournaments are the ones for which the player keeps rambling for 2 hours how aggravatedly they will put you in torpor with a Darth Vader like voice, but otherwise bleed only for 1. Meh

@ Kiddo and Ashur. Both of your examples are valid examples. But I might call stuff that plays 4 bounces in 90 cards for "toolbox without bounce" as well, since it's essentially with it.
But Toolboxes without bounce includ but are not limited to: Gangrel, !gangrel, akunanse, nos, !nos, brujah, !brujah, etc etc. The lists goes on. Point being; I really hate facing crappy decks that don't have any place in a tournament enviorment. Typiclly thay end up blocking a few actions, rush once or twice (probably backwards) and then gives its prey to much room to build up. Leading to that players prey likey to win.
That's real frustration for me. Good player playing sleazy tried and true decks - that's what I really like (though sleazy but innovative decks is just as fine).

To be honest, I have grown very tired of the idea that bringing almost any deck without you're at best bringing a crossbow to a gunfight and at worst a bread-knife to a gunfight. I know they're coming, but it doesn't mean I like that they are a major component of the Australian (and I'm assuming worldwide) Meta.
Multi-MPA isn't a big issue in Australia.

I voted for combat decks. Essentially because i play a lot of ally combat decks of various type (vozhd, nephandus, rock cats) that really suck against bruise bleed or a more dedicated combat.
