DeSalle Spoiled the Punch: Show of Force Bruise Bleed

Thanks, I will probably put 1 or 2 in for this week's games.

I don't see the benefit of Tangle Atropos' Hand: if I get blocked, don't I want to play combat cards instead?

Tangle is against bounce so you can untap, without tapping your grandpreys blocker, and bleed again.

Yeah, that was what I thought.

After a couple of games I can say that I don't want to take out any Shows of Force. You really need to play one on every action to keep pressure on your prey.

Yup, that's a good reasoning.

An emergency Majesty seems like a good idea.

Waste Management Operation is a bad card in a normal (non-twister) deck. In the best case, I get it out on turn 2 and use it every turn. And for a pool and a MPA I might get 10 cards put down at the bottom of my deck by the end of the game. Not a great investment when I can increase the deck size by 10 cards and include a master that promotes card flow, like Dreams of the Sphinx.

Now, that's a good reasoning! Thanks!

People stopped blocking me and made me choke on cards. So now I gain pool on almost every action and bleed for 5 often. Tangle Atropos' Hand for the inevitable bounce.

Description:
Bruise-bleed deck based on Show of Force. Bleed for 2-3, hands for 2-3 on every action. The +1 strength from Show of Force has good synergy with the presses from Mighty Grapple. Stay in the game by gaining pool with Blood Doll and Spoils of War. Recoup blood with Spoils of War and Taste of Vitae.

Wow, this deck is super focused!

I would add a second narrow minds, or inconnu tutelage. Replace wider view with information highway if you choose inconnu tutelage.

Are 3 Taste of Vitaes necessary? you don't actually use much blood, so you could remove all but one. Then, you could add Giant's Blood (for thwarting other players' GB and for extra blood for yourself). You have slots in your master module.

perhaps a surprise Frontal Assault or Tribute to the Master? Or just plain Villein for emptying a vampire when you need to.

If you are running this low amount of cards in Brujah Antitribu, some WMO comes handy.

WMO is bad. See discussion earlier in the thread.
