Malk Flurry of Action Wall

Deck Name: Malk Flurry of Action Wall
Author: Brandon Haas
Description: Your basic malk wall featuring Victoria for pool gain. This time, capitalize on celerity to bleed and untap (to defend or bleed again). Celerity gives combat more of a punch, too. Master section is intentionally small to avoid hand jam. I also don't want to have to defend a ton of stuff from the entire table.

How do you intend to oust?
Attrition. Smiling Jack, Constant Revolution, Anarch Revolt, some bleeds.

How do you intend to survive?
Block threatening/pool gain actions to keep the upper hand. Gain pool from the edge.

What do you expect your ready region to look like?
3-4 guys, depending on how my pool is holding up.

What should your average turn look like?
Bleed a little, tool-up, and leave one or two guys untapped to defend. Bleed on my predator's turn to gain 1-3 pool.

What's your meta like?
Some very forward-focused decks, a lot of toolboxes.

I tried this deck years ago and concluded it was better just as an aus wall without the gimmick. slow bleeding before your turn, then untapping , gaining 3-4 pool, and passing was better than hoping for the gimmick

butyou may have better luck.

edit: also, border skirmish is funny.

Without trying to be to harsh but... the deck has a big. big issue. To work your idea vampires needs superior celerity to work and none of your crypt show this trait.

If your idea is to mix a little celerity to give the deck a bit of flawour, rather than to stick to flurry bleed, I will gladly give you some advice.

...there are three skill cards and Drum of Xipe Totec, so I expect to get superior celerity before too long. In the meantime, I can cycle some cards with Flurry at inferior if I want to. The inferior celerity is still useful to keep at long range and/or dodge.

You can use four slots to give superior celerity to your vampires, but that would result in an inefficient deck, imho.
I would rather stick to inferior celerity, which can also be useful without using flurry bleed. You can use diversion thanks the anarch trait to win additional strike, mixed with disguised guns cound do a pretty decent combat. Rather than using flurries to rotate hand you can use aura reading.

the old Madness Network Homunculus trick is more efficient, because you only need basic protean for it to start working, and it's permanent. plus it gives you brand new combat options, such as Flesh of Marble, Earth Meld, Claws, or Form of Mist.

I think this idea has too many moving parts. you need to get the skill cards first, stealth the bleed through so you can untap, play reactions to defend, play combat cards when you block. it's too much of everything at once.
