Black and blue Handsomites

Need some insight for my nizzam and Karif quiet black hand animal deck.. I'm not sure about the numbers of scorpion sting and disease and song of serenity... I got a couple of slots left would like to up the combat cards a bit.. I like the multi act killing capabilities, weakness is fortitude of course, but can't cover everything.

Pretty certain the answer is zero.

first question is why do want animalism in this deck at all? With new cards QUI has great tools for combat. Adding out of clan discipline, master dyscipline cards, etc makes a deck a LOT worse.

Native (nizzam) and the carrion + dam the heart river combo can have a sense. But then, one should use the other vampires like Olugbenga or Amavarati, or Gracetius.

If the focus is supposed to be black hand assamite, then animalism certainly have to be out. If the focus is only Nizzam, then one need a decent amount of anti-Pentex techniques, and Mind Rape is a problem too.
