Deck - There is bleed beyond death

I've seen this done with Lady Constancia. The recursion special really seems to help and I hear Dominate has bleed cards.

That would be my version of the same idea, using g3-4 vampires.
Ignazio Giovanni, 9 rush special
Lady Constancia, 10 2 votes, recursion special
Luca Italicus, 10 archbishop can strike for 2r

This trio gives you discipline combination
add a few masters and you have some stealth and can use the Soul Gem combo.

My version had a relatively few force of the will's and only three blessed resiliences. The idea was to work more as traditional bleed and bloat deck, and only burn yourself once you had perfect hand for your comeback. As fourth vampire my version had Blackhorse Tanner. I find his card recycling special to be golden, but the deck would probably work even better with weenies or even Tupdogs as crypt filler.

Good Call. I'll drop Kiss of Ra and add an Information Highway instead. Although I am also tempted to add a House of Sorrows, which would allow me to use the Parthenon twice in a given turn.

I think House of Sorrow does not work on The Parthenon.
You can untap Parthenon with HoS, but you can't tap the Parhtenon again for an aditional mpa in that same turn.

[20:22:45] <D-> hm, you can't use house of sorrow on parthenon, right?
[20:22:58] <@Jozxyqk> that's a trick question
[20:22:59] <extrala> why not?
[20:23:08] <@Jozxyqk> you can use house of sorrow to untap parthenon
[20:23:14] <@Jozxyqk> but you can't tap parthenon again during the same master phase
[20:23:22] <@Jozxyqk> because it says "during"
[20:23:24] <D-> that's what I wanted to say
[20:23:32] <extrala> then i cheated last wednesday

Why not use the other groupings? And honestly, I'm stunned not to see one or two Slaughterhouses in here...

Why on earth would you put "one or two Slaughterhouses" in a deck, like ever? Unless the deck is a dedicated mill, then discarding a few cards from the prey's deck is absolutely useless 98% of the time.

A couple of Slaughterhouses are almost essential if you're running Trochomancy. They really help if your prey is playing a fairly slow deck or a permanent heavy deck that doesn't fill the ash heap quickly.

Ah, makes sense! I was kinda sure that there was some point to the idea (as Jugg is rather experienced) but wasn't seeing it. Not sure I would pay pool for them with this deck, but it's a valid option.

Thank you!
