I like the concept, but I think it would be better executed with just Reg and NEC mid-caps. Le Dihn Tho, Rudolpho Giovanni and Isabell all have superior NEC for less than 6 pool. They also bring dominate to the table, which I hear is good for defense and ally management.

Or, in the lack of Le Din Tho and Isabella, I could go with G2 Harbingers. With shared AUS I'd have an option for bounce, as well as extra blocking capabilities to deal with votes and far mastery. Giovanni aren't too bad an option either, but my selection of them is a bit limited.

Oh, oh! If I decide to try it out with Giovanni, obviously I'll need to add that unique equipment which slowly builds me levels of dominate and fortitude, and obviously the +1 bleed! I can't remember the name of the card though.

So with this you got deflection and you got allies with mean equipment. What you need next is ways to pay for thoses allies and equipment without ousting yourself. Obviously Little Mountain Cemetery don't work here, and villeins/vessel are counterproductive as bloat in a shambling deck.

Yes, good points - both of which I think skimmed through my mind but I didn't stop and dwell on the issues.

With all that said and done, I'd go with, surprise surprise, dominate bloat. Add some dominate masters and maybe gloria giovanni and swap all your LMC for GtU, which you use primaraly as bloat and not bleed.

I'll draft a version of my own so you can see what you think about it.

Cheers! I'll be curious to see what you'll conjure up. I'm hoping to play a version of my own next week. Too bad I have a crucial problem: I don't own Carlton of my own, so I'll need to survive with the rest of the allies.

Ok, so here is my draft of your idea... of course it heavily depends on having that awesome g2 giovanni crypt. I really liked the tupdog angle, so I added it too.

Deck Name: Driscoll does the Shopping

Description: Giovannis call shamblings and other nasty allies, reg equips them. Dominate for deflection as well as bloat, which coupled with ally block should be pretty solid defense.
