I have played it only once so far. It scored a GW 2.5 on a terrible table: my predator was Mistress Fanchon/Orlando Oriundus and my prey Ayo Igoli, so I was completely outvoted and could not play Obedience.
Temptation of Greater Power on Ayo Igoli let me steal a first VP (best card ever...) then I just grinded the second prey (a setite vote) until drawing a Network. Far Mastery on Ponticulus opened the way for my rushing grand-predator.

If it's not the first action you block, you can have untapped from the previous Second Trad/Obedience. You can also stay untapped: Greger cannot play superior Obedience anyway, so he won't multiact. They are also here for the inferior: Second Tradition is so good that people expect no other reactions in the deck, so the third intercept can surprise.I especially like the Eagle sight ad-on, i guess it ads a dimension of table-control, though it does not mash well with second traditions (as you have to be untapped to play eagle sight, since you are not Anneke). But great idea, nevertheless.
With mostly +1 stealth undirected actions and 2 permanent stealth cards, I feel it's enough. There are bondings to help when bleeding. That's probably the difference with your approach: I don't really do stealth-bleed, I only bleed seriously once I can swarm with the Network. Monastery of Shadows might be better than the Forest, but I don't have any.How has Forest of shadows served you? I have it, but it rarely makes the cut? You seem a little thin on the stealth part, also? Do you get blocked much?
They did their job, but they will likely make room for Banishment.How about Jugment: camarilla segregation? Whenever i seem to put this card in a deck, my prey is camarilla, but cross-table are sabbat
I like Montrel here because I can defend it and it's a crypt accelerator if drawn early. It is mostly here to influence new vampires, I don't expect to transfer back too much. But then again, I play 12 Second Trad/ Obedience, you play 7, so it's not really the same deck.Why Montreal? It should be counter-intuitive with parity shift?

I played today 3 more games, scoring 2 gw with 6 vp's.
I added one spying mission (which proved invaluable), and substituted Wider view for Giant's blood (which never came).
I was really surprised how effective the deck turned out to be, with smooth flow of cards [and some serious topdecking goodnes
]. The dreams were invaluable. I also think that maybe adding more mental maze would be excellent, as one of them saved me from the evil garou rush. I think i am on to something here B) .
The only game i didn't get a game win was when i was predator to the anarch AUS weenies, who managed to pull 3 anarch revolts and a jack in first 4 turns ( starting with a convert), an in my crypt draw there was nobody who could try to go anarch
. Still, i managed to nearly kill him before i died, leaving him on only 2 pool, for my predator to sweep the table. Alas, you cannot have everything ![:-D :-D](/media/kunena/emoticons/laughing.png)
Blood management is still an issue, but somehow, the game seem to end (one way or the other, before i run completely dry. Though, couple of times i used my network actions to hunt. Will keep you posted wiht more experiences...
