This is a wall deck starring {{ goratrix }}. Its superior {{ ANI }} allows him to use {{ sense_the_savage_way }}, a powerful addition to the {{ AUS }} intercept module.
{{ goratrix }} combat ability is very good: as {{ theft_of_vitae }}, its damage can not be prevented. The use of {{ carrion_crows }} for additional damage and {{ canine_horde }} against weapons makes for a powerful but slim combat module.
{{ magic_of_the_smith }} is used to fetch powerful equipments adapted to the table context. {{ heart_of_nizchetus }} is always good, {{ bowl_of_convergence }} adds additional intercept, {{ ivory_bow }}, {{ kevlar_vest }} and {{ ruins_of_ceoris }} are great additions for combat.
The intercept module is very heavy, with 20 wakes not counting the {{ cats_guidance }}, 9 bleed bounces to help deliver pool damage to the prey, and a total of 45 bonus intercept available accross 45 reaction cards.
Pool damage is done using {{ anarch_revolt }}, {{ army_of_rats }} and {{ smiling_jack_the_anarch }}, with the addition of {{ enkil_cog }} at some point to have {{ goratrix }} bleed for 3 at the end of its predator's turn if he is still unlocked.
{{ anarch_revolt }} is ineffective if the prey gets Anarch vampires into play, but {{ eagle_s_sight }} can be used to intercept these Anarchs whatever they do and dispose of them quickly.
The sidekicks in the crypt also have the {{ AUS }}{{ ANI }} disciplines combination to help with intercept in case a {{ pentex_subversion }} is played.
{{ rutor_s_hand }} and {{ mylan_horseed }} are used to enable {{ goratrix }} to act and still stay unlocked.
{{ villein }} and {{ vessel }} are used to bloat a bit from {{ goratrix }}, as its combat ability should ensure he never runs out of blood.
Given the disciplines span available to {{ goratrix }}, {{ the_erciyes_fragments }} becomes very versatile. It can provide additional wakes and bounces but also bleed enhancers.
There are not many variants in this archetype. {{ read_the_winds }} is often included in the intercept module, and surprise aggravated damage from {{ vic }} can be added, like {{ breath_of_the_dragon }} or {{ chiropteran_marauder }}.
It is possible to build a non-anarch version of this archetype. It looses the damages from {{ anarch_revolt }}, but gains access to {{ abbot }} and {{ powerbase_barranquilla }}, like in {{ jakub_baranowski_s_deck }} from the 2013 Polish NC.
