There appear to be a few rush guys in G3-4...

Remove the Codex.

Certainly not!
After you've torporized everyone bleeding for one isnät an option when prey has plentiful pool.

OK, then it's metagame.
I wouldn't dare launch a bleed for 4. It might cost me my vampire and my ousting card.

I agree with previous poster about your lack of maneuvers, for this reason I think Claws of the Dead would be a better choice than Bone Spur.
A couple of camera phones would be better than a single Codex. In another deck, you can afford to risk losing a vampire to AI, but your guys are all too high capacity.
Monster is an ideal card for this deck.
If you add Monster, than a couple of Deep Songs for either multi-rush or extra bleeding would be useful.

Mh, yeah, let's rather have Claws. But about that maneuver thing, Enkidu and Black Annis can use Swallowed for maneuver, and generally this deck deals five damage from long range. Thrown Sever Lid is a choice that stems from from the experience that no amount of maneuvers will be enough. Think about Sniper Rifle, Cailean, why not even Assamites...

I don't know what's a half-decent predator in your books, if the metagame would be full of weenie S&B then sure, but from my last experiences with Enkidu/Black Annis deck I think the concept is viable. My perception of the metagame (local or tournament) is that it's so fatty heavy I don't worry about weenie decks.

I can't worry about AI of all things

A lot of times I have found that I don't want Slam in my hand, but Thrown Sever Lid.

I can't focus more on Karsh, he can't rush most of the best minions in the game

Hm. Could you do such a deck based around multiple monsters? Multirush that has to draw an archetype to work, hm.
