Toreador block/combat

Greetings, I'm new to the forum and relatively new to the game. Thought I'd post my current deck for you to check out and hopefully post your opinion. Thanks!

Deck Name: Toreador block/combat

Replace Noses with more legals/public trusts, or at least replace some of them to get more bleed for the actual oust (or include fame? if you want them).

I don't think you need all those intercept locations, rather something to discard leftover conceal/magnums. I prefer Aura Reading, infernal pursuit is not bad either.

Not including Art Museum sounds odd, just as not including the Rack/PB: Montreal and Smiling Jack.

Thanks for the input. I removed the Art Museum since I have too much non-toreadors in my crypt. I might try out Smiling Jack and the Rack though actually. I should be able to defend them.

Honestly, I think you should dump the Giant's Blood & Pentex to put in 2x Fame.
I'd be tempted to remove Villeins or Blood Dolls and replace them with 2x Art Museum, 1x Smiling Jack. And take out the Dreams to get another Smiling Jack (just to speed up the chances of you getting them).

You could easily go for the slightly larger G1-2 Crypt as well and include Anneke and Masika. Both of them are highly valuable in these sorts of decks.

So your Masters would then become:

No Villeins version
Master (14)
2x Art Museum
3x Blood Doll
1x Direct Intervention
2x Fame
1x KRCG News Radio
1x Rumor Mill, Tabloid Newspaper, The
2x Smiling Jack, the Anarch
1x Sudden Reversal
1x WMRH Talk Radio

No Blood Dolls version
Master (14)
2x Art Museum
1x Direct Intervention
2x Fame
1x KRCG News Radio
1x Rumor Mill, Tabloid Newspaper, The
2x Smiling Jack, the Anarch
1x Sudden Reversal
3x Villein
1x WMRH Talk Radio

I think the hardest part for a block deck is to prevent your prey from getting VPs. You wont likely put a lot of pressure on him if he goes straight foreward. A few Eagle Sights are good to have, but as you play G1/2 you might consider taking Anneke in your crypt too.

You really want those Magnums on your vamps. So I would go for 1 more each of Magnum and Concealed weapon. Ditching WRMH and Rumor Mill (you have quite much intercept anyway).

Also only half your crypt have CEL, so I would swap 1-2 Pursuit for Blur.
Otherwise it looks fine. test it on Wednesday!
