Highlights

This is a breed & boon deck starring {{ anson }} and using {{ PRE }} as the discipline to push votes. The purpose is to have him out as fast as possible to use {{ political_actions }} to kill the prey.

Tips & Tricks

{{ grooming_the_protege }} costs quite an amount of blood and it is necessary to replenish the vampires from time to time. Using {{ voter_cap }} to replenish the vampires helps playing as many offensive actions as possible opposed to hunt actions. Another way to {{ bloat }} is {{ parity_shift }}.

{{ parity_shift }} can only be called by Princes and Justicars. In this deck, only {{ anson }} and {{ tatiana_romanov }} can call for it without any prior action. {{ toreador_justicar }} will help have more vampires able to.

{{ toreador_grand_ball }} is of great help against a prey and/or a predator with a good block capacity as a low capacity vampire can be chosen to make all votes from {{ anson }} unblockable. This same low cap vampire can be chosen again to help another vampire with another {{ toreador_grand_ball }}.

It is possible to negociate with the great predator how to assign damage if their votes are necessary. It is important to still deal more damage to the prey than to the predator. Otherwise, it will only help the great predator oust their prey and become the predator more quickly.

It is a good idea when the grand-prey deck has good block capacity to also deal some damage to them. Indeed, they do not get the chance to block the undirected vote actions until they are either the prey or the predator.

Tournament Version

{{ inaki_jimenez_deck }} is the only tournament version of this deck.
