The Diwas

Deck Name : Diva (di-wa)
Author : Jonas Sjödahl
Description :

> How do you intend to oust?
Use the special abilities of the divas Gabrielle and Kamiri to send everything and everyone to torpor. Win by using fame, Dragonbound, Tension in the Ranks and possibly bleed with graverobbed victims.

Only bleed if you have a spare action and your prey has the edge. Concentrate on using the built-in actions.

> How do you intend to keep from being ousted?

Extremely weak against non-bleed predators especially vote decks so seriously consider crippling those.
Use Guard Dogs and Deflection to deflect bleeds. Obedience is there to make sure predator use stealth before you deflect or stop a non-stealth combat rush.

> What do you want your ready region to look like (ie, how many guys are you planning on getting out)?

2.
If you get Mapatano Utando or Mbare Market on start hand. Start with Kamiri otherwise build on Gabrielle.

> What do you want your average turn to look like?

Gabrielle steal blood. Untap with Rutors and perform another action (such as Graverobbing/rescue famed vampire). Gabrielle Later untap with Guard Dogs and deflect a bleed. Kamiri deal damage and hopefully send someone to torpor. Triggering Fame and Tension.

Dragonbound has poor synergy with Graverobbing so it might be beneficial to discard it depending on scenario.

> What's your metagame like? How do your opponents play?

S/B. Bruise & Bleed. Rush decks. One trick ponies. Dedicated vote decks are rare.

> What problems have you observed with the deck in play?

0 combat cards will spell trouble against a quick rush. Weenie/midcap predator that bleed multiple times per round can cripple the deck before it even starts. Votes.

The deck's premise is interesting, though there are some improvements that can be made, IMO.

1) Your stealth package is not diverse enough. I suggest:
+3 Spying Mission
-2 Lost in Crowds
-2 Cloak the Gathering
+1 Forgotten Labyrinth

2) You will spend pool like crazy the first few turns without any sort of defense. Consider Zillah's Valleys. and more Villein, like 3 more.

3) Relying solely on Guard Dogs will leave you helpless against Sleeping Mind. Diversify with some On the Qui Vive.

4) Consider some weenies to let you deflect early on, and also Graverob if there's no one else to block them.

5) Not having any combat save for 3 Obediences is ... scary. Not sure what to recommend, though you can accommodate some Aid from Bats.


I'm looking forward to hearing from others on this one.

Good luck.

Thanks for the link. I edited my post to reflect that.

1. The stealth Package is possibly too big also but I always aim to have more than necessary than the other way around. I removed one Lost and Cloak for Faceless Night which probably has more use than Spying Mission (deck doesn't oust by bleed).

2. Yes, the first few turns are critical. I removed one Secret Passage in favor of a second Dreams. The extra transfers might give give a headstart.

3. I agree. -3 Guard dogs. +3 On the Qui Vive.

4. g4,g5 doesn't have many dom weenies but I added Jackson Asher atleast.

5. With the loss of Secret Passage, Secure Haven is not enough. I added 3 Flesh Bond for S:CE making it a 83 card deck.
