Why no flames of the netherworld? Ankara citadel? There are good tremere cards you arent using .ponticulous?

Anyway, less spirits touch, more second trad or stsw.
James Messer eon a tournament with a similar crypted deck, you may look at his.

Flame of the netherworld have the very useful ability to allow to burn vampire that have one blood when combined with a Carrion Crow.

Spirit touch seem a good idea because of the maneuver. I would also add one IR google, so that Magic can also fetch a permanent maneuver, because potence combat and Hektor are relatively often seen where I play, and a maneuver can help a lot against thoses. Something say me you mainly see celegun however.

Lastly, I am a bit septical about Wasserchloss and Salt of Thoth. It seem a lot of effort for few effect.

I have a very similar deck, and I love it dearly, but I don't think it would work without the four Villeins I'm running. If you don't have Villeins, use Grooming instead. And for the love of God replace those Vessels with Blood Dolls (and cut down on the number): you only have 14 master cards, so it's not like you need the trifle.

I was actually thinking of making it 2 Villein, 3 Blood Doll and The Rack in place of the 6 Vessel. So thank you for spurring me on.

how about a couple of anathemas? Also you have way too many actions for a wallish deck, I'd cut the MoTS and equipment angle to make room to some drawing out the beast and/or terror frenzy who are top notch in ANI THA combat, specially if you are running anathemas and more presses (mob connections in favor of wasserchloss? some traps?)
