I dislike the prayer Legendary Vampire, as it's nearly always a discard, but other than that, I really enjoy this build-out of an Orlando deck.

You're free to dislike it, but in my experience it is never discarded without a specific intent to Tablet it back. It's both exceedingly strong and self-protecting with Orlando in play.

This Orlando variant tends to create a new minion every time a Villein flows into hand. The result is that fresh minions pop into play at seemingly odd times, which preserves the value of a mid-game Legendary. So where you see a discard, I see opportunity.

In other decks like this which are more Banish-focused, I have self-Banished a tapped, nearly full minion because a Legendary flowed into hand during an active turn - it was worth that much to me.

Ultimately, I believe it's too good to omit from a deck with a reasonable probability of seeing Orlando.

I have to agree, Legendary Vampire does not have to be played as a prayer card. If you plan to bring 7+ vamps mid-to-late game, you would probably have it by then and it would be stronger than any average card you would cycle through. The card is tricky to play, but great when you know what you are doing.

!malk! :OBF: :DEM: :cel: :cap6: Sabbat. If this vampire's bleed is successful, he laughs manicly and untaps.

Regardless of hypothetical analysis, Darby won a 25 person tournament with the deck including it, so it seems reasonable that its an ok card in the deck if he doesnt add some annotation about removing it.

It does pop up in twds though, so i suppose its ok. Ige seen it in lots of Tzimitze stuff. Its runnable in ANYTHING with DOM simce Govern get you minions whenever ( pool fom oust plus govern is plenty to buy a new vamp)
Ventrue fould alwqys use it mid to lategame, but access to presence seems to make it less stategically needed. Related note, Ephor is good for current ventrue builds, since Hugh made everyone notice they block good (not a secret before, but he kept winnning)

Yes, we have this Archon. However we have not been able to upload it to vekn.net via the event calendar. I believe the problem that is dooming the upload comes from an error on the Tournament Info page of the spreadsheet. In the field asking for number of rounds (including final), instead of being able to enter 4, I am presented with the same drop-down menu of selections that was available two cells above this question for the field "level". Is this entire spreadsheet corrupted, or can I find a way to get rid of those (impertinent) drop down options so that I may simply enter the number 4 in the "Number of Rounds" field?
