I'd also like to mention Blood of the Sabbat.
Works like Perfectionist, but the

I've sometimes even used Zoning Board in decks just to get rid of locations. I don't care if they get the pool cost back; it will slow down those decks heavily.
my recent underrated card I've been looking at is Behind You(!). with superior OBF, I think it's better than the majority of Celerity combat cards. not a single celerity card gives you the option of maneuver/dodge, which is so versatile for both offense and defense.
one time I handed a brand-new player a malkavian deck to play his first game. it was standard stealth bleed, but just for a little fun I added some wacky combat defense. Disguised Weapon + Improvised Flamethrower, Dodge, Behind You. Even though he was sitting between TWO long-range combat decks, thanks to the use of Behind You he never once got the flamethrower exploded. I was very impressed by this overlooked obfuscate card.

totally agreed. It's funny how often I see decks that rely too much on having some special location in play, like Ankara Citadel or Parthenon or Monastery of Shadows. poof!Arson - It's free, and the all-purpose, non-limited usage is incredibly powerful, especially if a particular location is going to be a bother to your deck.

My favorite part about this ally is that it's practically impossible to steal. I don't see these doggies enough in animalism decks.Underbridge Stray - It's a cheap ally that can block, it provides a permanent untap(!), and similarly to Police Department, it provides a press (either way), which can often save you, or help kill your enemies.

I agree, I like blood of sabbat too.
Crypt card: Gravitnir, I haven't seen him played alot. His special can single handedly stop many vote decks. not all but many.

In my weenie Presence voter I also use some Celerity (Brujahs and Toreadors) which enables me to use Scalpel Tongues which function like Gravitnir. Great for swinging the vote to your favour.Crypt card: Gravitnir, I haven't seen him played alot. His special can single handedly stop many vote decks. not all but many.
Just in yesterday's tournaments sidegame (during the finals) it worked very well.

I vote for Pentex Subversion. It is obviously underrated if it is still not banned.

This vampire is a single-minion Wall just about. Inferior dominate is her only drawback. Untap a minion, look at people's hands and all because other people want the edge??? She flicks, she blocks, she has
for all of the dead-people shennanigans, she fits in well pretty well with Tremere and Harbringers... a little Fortitude or Thaumaturgy and she's all ready to be a powerhouse. This vampire seriously does not see enough play.
