It looks pretty nice deck, but in the end it's way too vulnerable to Pentex for my taste. Cailean gets a Pentex and you're basically fucked. I also feel it pretty slow having to bring out multiple fatties without acceleration and forward motion consisting of bleeds for 2 or the occasional Fame dunk.
sate for small Crows.

Well there is 4x Dreams, Nosferatu Kingdom and the special from Tarbaby. So not a whole LOT of acceleration but also not none. I am considering dropping the two Monster against an Info Highway and Pentex. Or go with 2x Wash.

I wouldn't add Wash. It is too prayerish against Pentex and will just stay in your hand and make deck flow worse. Carlton and Mylan are ok against Pentex if your metagame has not become more combat happy also. With that kind of crypt I feel you have to just accept to get Pentexed some time.

I would just play more with the deck and see what is important to change. If you feel the deck doesn't flow good enough I would cut it to 80 cards and keep all Dreams. Dreams or Nosferatu Kingdom in starting hand is very good because you are sure to get vampire out in two turns. Another thing to think is add some Conditioning to get some more lunge potential. Cards I would think replacing are 2x Heroic Might, 2x Monster, 2x Fists of Death, 1x Smiling Jack, The Anarch.

i like all deck, very good. only i change 2 monster and anarch by 1 info highway, a carver and Mark V for Cailen.

I would appreciate some suggestion on what to use instead of Monster. Preferrably cards without pool cost, or one maximum.

Carver's / Scourge ?
Pentex is a strong choice .
Uncoiling is fun too

also, a totally lunatic idea, but perhaps a copy of two of Honor the elders? It usually passes...

You might also want to consider Shane Grimald in the deck in place of one of the support guys, he is really cheap at only 4 pool and has ani/dom/pot
