Al-Munthatir reCurses you

This is version 20 of Al and his pals

Early game, summon Undele and Dmitra ASAP. Next get sargons. Now stay alive through judicious use of allies and votes till you have abou 4-6 big vamps out. Time for Political Stranglehold. Once Lutz is out, Dmitra + Undele + Bernard + Benjamin allows you to do 4 pool damage while setting your hand.


Deck is fragile early on, but if not hit with a sledgehammer early, will roll over most other decks once set up.

Interesting concept. A quick glance makes the deck look like a collection of all your favorate cards, but it should have the consistant ability to get an ally or two of choice fairly early. And keep the high value assets safe.

I think a good Stealth/Bleed or computer hacking low bloods would have you number though.

TO be honest, it handles those pretty well, as long as i can get soem early vamps out.

Absoluetly optimum start is goign 4th or 5th, with at least 1 summon in hand and more quickly
If this deck can get a SH in turn 3 and 4, with al out, by turn 5 i have 3 8+ caps, usually undele and dmitra. This allows for some pretty funky recursion and blood control. This is where the toolbox aspect of the deck comes out to shine.

Regarding consistently bringing out an ally early, that's what SH is for.

This deck is capable of generating an enormous amount of pool in a fairly short space of time. Iam currently in a game on jol where i have a total lock, deck flowed perfectly, and opponents where not exactly pushovers.
