7/12 have dom, 6/12 have THA, 6/12 have tha

Library: 80

Master: 17
1x Arcane Library
3x Society of Leopold
4x Thaumaturgy
1x The Rumor Mill, Tabloid Newspaper
5x Vessel
1x Wall Street Night, Financial Newspaper
1x Wasserschloss Anif, Austria
1x WMRH Talk Radio

Drop all but maybe one skill card. Turn Vessels into Blood Dolls (Sudden will do a better job of killing blood dolls for you). Drop Wall Street, Wasserschloss and WMRH. I like the Rumor mill. You might have too much Society of Leopold. How about Strained Vitae Supply? Fear of Mekhet? Now you have room for a few Sudden Reversal for your generic "that sucks for my game, so forget it" play. Dreams and Barrens could go here in case you choke on the wrong cards. Bureaucratic Overload?

Action: 20
20x Cryptic Mission

Solid

Action Modifier: 7
7x Conditioning

Don't need so many, maybe 4? Swarm bleeding is best with the occasional boost. More cards to steal blood this way.

Ally: 7
1x Carlton Van Wyk
1x Gregory Winter
4x Neighborhood Watch Commander
1x Young Bloods

Neighbor hood watch commanders are actions probably better spent bleeding or stealing blood.

Combat: 18
8x Movement of the Mind
6x Theft of Vitae
4x Weather Control

I bet that you could go Theft, Rigo Motus with a couple Weather control like you did there. Good finisher.

Reaction: 9
5x Deflection
4x On the Qui Vive

You may have room for a little more bounce. Don't forget anti vote tech, too.

Retainer: 2
2x Charnas the Imp

If you have card cyling tech, I guess he is good enough to have two.

Options to consider that are a little silly: Rafastio Ghoul and Talaq, The Immortal. If you get more allies in play, it might not hurt to use some computer hacking.

Be careful when you fight the monsters, lest you become one.

I would add 1 or 2 perfectionists to grab some extra juice.

This would be my modifications

-5x Vessel
+4x Tribute to the Master
+1x Gird Minions

Tribute craps all over Vessel in this deck. You're looking to be grabbing blood from Cryptics and it doesn't cripple you if you hunt sometimes. If something tragic happens and you're globally short on blood, then Gird Minions will get you out of a tight spot if you have the pool.

-2x Thaumaturgy
+2x Sudden Reversal OR +1 SR & +1 DI

"No Giant's Blood for you. No Papillon for you! Certainly no Voter Cap for you!!!"

-1x Wall Street
-1x Rumor Mill
+2x Archon Investigation

Why block the bleed when you can tempt them into over-reaching and punishing them horribly for it?

-4x Neighbourhood Watch Commander
+1x Aranthebes
+2x Impundulu
+1x Gregory Winter or Thadius Zho

Impundulus are actually very durable. 3 Blood gets you a Saturday Night Special with a built in Cryptic @ :THA:. I think that's 3 blood well spent! I'd keep around a Thadius (or maybe Outcast) because a .44 magnum with a built in bleed is also nice in this kind of deck (constant pressure on prey's pool on top of blood pressure).

If you've got a handful of allies around then the Unmasking MIGHT be an option to include. But be willing to shed it faster than cats hair in Spring if you've got a prey sporting anything more dangerous than Mylan.

In my opinion, Vessel is worth a try. I would drop all Intercept-locations but the Rumor Mill. Same with the skill-cards. I would add (as mentioned by others already) some Wash (and Direct Intervention). One Society (being unique) should be Vampiric Disease.
Some Mirror Walk might be fine. Ponticulus would help you protect your minions.
Neighborhood W. C. is a nice idea, but I would drop at least 2 of them.
Less combat, more reaction (especially more "wakes" and more bounce, even 2 Delaying Tactics or maybe poison pill).

Nevertheless: Have fun with this deck! ;)

Crypt:
1x Heinrick Schlempt
1x Magdelena Schaefer
1x Roreca Quaid
1x Blythe Candeleria
1x Brooke
1x Dr. John Casey
1x Jing Wei
1x Ignatius
1x Sarah Cobbler
1x Aisling Sturbridge
1x Hannigan
1x Merrill Molitor

- Looks fast and solid.

Library: 80

Master: 17
1x Arcane Library
3x Society of Leopold
4x Thaumaturgy
1x The Rumor Mill, Tabloid Newspaper
5x Vessel
1x Wall Street Night, Financial Newspaper
1x Wasserschloss Anif, Austria
1x WMRH Talk Radio

- add Chantry + Tremere Convocation or two. 2 Societys should do. Maybe even Humanitas

Action: 20
20x Cryptic Mission

- Maybe even 25 CM

Action Modifier: 7
7x Conditioning

- May stack. With such a horde 5 could be enough?

Ally: 7
1x Carlton Van Wyk
1x Gregory Winter
4x Neighborhood Watch Commander
1x Young Bloods

- Impundulu and Ponticulus are very good for this.

Combat: 18
8x Movement of the Mind
6x Theft of Vitae
4x Weather Control

- Now this is the tricky part. How many combat cards is enough? i'd go for 10-15. On the other hand, you could change some combat to Mirror Walks

Reaction: 9
5x Deflection
4x On the Qui Vive

- Reasonable.
