This needs help. Probably to many cards. I meddled the old finnish Dr Julius Dental Care-deck (love it!) and smashed in Temptations and stealth. Needs more focus, on anything. Please try it, rebuild it, post your thoughts.

How do you intend to oust?

How do you intend to keep from being ousted?

What do you want your ready region to look like (ie, how many guys are you planning on getting out)?

What do you want your average turn to look like?

What's your metagame like? How do your opponents play?

What problems have you observed with the deck in play?

I'd say the biggest functional problem is how you avoid getting ousted. The biggest conceptual problem is that it's a cool idea to use Horseshoes with Temptation, but this deck is really not that deck so much as it's a rush deck with those cards.

I'd much rather ditch all of the rush and most of the combat and find some sort of pool defense/bloat angle to go with a core strategy built around the two actions (plus Form of Corruption).

you have to invest so many cards to combat and stealth, i'm not sure you'll be able to make the most of the target vampires once you tempt them to your side.

have you considered shoeing them in torpor then graverobbing? dominate covers a lot of bases of course, but you'll also be able to field a more consistent crypt than :POT: :SER: . Lasombra seems like an obvious choice, and group 4-5 Nosferatu has all that dominate. plus, both clans have those permanent stealth locations to get all those actions thru.

Tarbaby Jack has :dom: but also :ser: so he can play Form of Corruption, hrm....

Sorry, I don´t have the time to write an essay on the deck. Draw your own conclusions, or don´t do it. Thanks anyway.

Yes, in both the original Julius Dental Care and my own fantastic ani-dom-weenie we have Deflection, a very good way to keep from getting ousted. This lacks it. Not good.

I wonder what bloat would fit in.

Maybe someone else tried the pot-setites? (Not counting those Typhonic Beast-decks, I don´t believe in them.)
