Peter Rophail's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: The Quiet Achiever 2013
Created By: Peter Rophail
Description: A 2013 incarnation of the deck I used to 
win the 2005 Australian Championships.  This deck never 
seems to do much, but is very effective. Table play is 
critical, especially early on. Most VP's scored by "lunging" 
(with Pentex Subversion) or by combat late in the game. Very 
difficult to oust, especially if allowed to set up. The absolute 
key is to use Magic of the Smith to bring out the Heart as 
early in the game as possible. From there you have most tables 
covered.

Patrick Benoit's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Mozambiqué
Author: Patrick Benoit
Description:
I'm not sure that's the shilmulo tarot is usefull. It could be 
replaced by a last stand, but I'm not sure it won't create flow 
problems.  The rumors is here to get a better flow and also to 
play something like a pentex subversion before playing Week of 
Nigthmares.  Consanguinous condemnation is here to tap some minions 
your prey keeps untapped to block but also and firstly to deflect.
It could also be defensive by calling it just before a consanguinous 
boon if you know that's someone is keeping an untapped vampire to 
play delaying tactics.  And it's also good to call a domain challenge 
just after.  If everything is ok, you should be able to put week of

Petteri Teerikangas' Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Unnamed cruising at Baltic Sea
Created By: Petteri Teerikangas
Description: Unnamed deck using maleficia; greater curses for 
gaining more pool and slowing down combat decks, evil eyes 
canceling and psalms to get bleeds in right address. Deck needs 
some slimming down and maybe some villeins as vampires where in 
near full capacity in many games I played in boat and EC. Thanks 
for building tips (and few borrowed cards) for Toni Karjalainen.

Simone Zanni's Tournament Winning Deck with 3 VPs in the Finals

Deck Name: Guillaume for rent
Author: Simone Zanni
Created By: thelonius_reloaded
Description: It's a toolbox recursive deck, with some situational strong 
defense and a light necrobleed module to oust.  Extremely valuable had been 
the 2 Trochomancy to take care of other recursive decks, and the combo 
Revelations/Precision to get rid of a double Deflection in my prey's hand.
Sacre Coeur never been much useful due to the lack of ally deck, but I will 
keep it.  Nicomedes is AMAZING when you have 11/12 cards in hand, and 
Sennadurek skill has often been underestimated, giving me full acces to 
almost all table's hand.

Marcin Szybkowski's Tournament Winning Deck with 5 VPs in the Finals

Deck Name : Guedado Ghouls
Author : Marcin "Dude" Szybkowski
Description : This deck is designed to bring out War Ghouls at extra 
speed - cutting the deck size to 50 and using D'habi revenants does 
the trick nicely, plus the revenants make perfect "meat" for corrupt 
constructs later on. Ideally you should have 3-4 minions on turn 3, 
which is not uncommon. Guedado is a true star here, giving you access 
to the Powerbase, Forgotten Labyrinths and of course the Strange day, 
which literally saved the day many times.  Some credit goes to Szewski 
for his advices before playing my 1st tournament with this deck. Thanks mate.

Adam Hulse's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Mata Hari Is the Founder
Authors : Adam Hulse and Sonam Adinolf
Description : A Mata Hari + kholo deck (created by Adam Hulse and 
Sonam Adinolf).  Sonam tried a version of this deck in 2012 Origins 
and  it was determined that there was not enough payload. So I made 
the deck 90 cards and upped the KRC by a lot.  The Mask of 1000 Faces 
are in there to get around no stealth for the weenie Laibon. Mata masks 
and then plays faceless. I didn't make it work so well so that combo 
needs some more play to see if worth it.

Janne Hägglund's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Imbued nerds no longer worship Satan
Author: HG (Janne Hägglund)
Description:
I've been playing variations of this same deck 
since my 2007 "Twist with Conviction".

Tournaments are Serious Business, so my Imbued have ditched 
their wacky infernal friends (with their Maleficia/Evil Eye 
or Striga/Scobax module).  They still love to hack computers 
though, since that seriously speeds up their stealth bleeding.

Things I would change:
- Remove all but one On the Qui Vive.
- Wendell Delburton was useless. I forgot to take him out 
after reducing the number of Weighted Walking Sticks by a lot.
- Suddens or Washes would be nice.

Boris Mailhé's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: DOM, +1 stealth, what else?
Author: Boris Mailhé
Description:
An old deck slightly tweaked after looking at Kakarot and Lönkka's TWDs. 
DOM and permanent +1 Stealth is amazing, and an early Heart of Nizchetus 
allows to run a huge Wash + reactions package without sacrificing the 
offensive cardflow. So you can afford to take it slowly, Govern your 
whole uncontrolled region out, tool up and wait for the opening.

Péter Botos' Tournament Winning Deck 

Deck Name: Cybele's Curse v2
Author: Botos Peter
Description:
Inspired by "Snakes on the Plane" by Ivan Marin-Rivas. 
This deck, however, relies more on Maleficia for defensive 
purpuses as well. Rather slow to build up but can be very 
effective with time. What I discovered during the games that 
putting one Barrenness on one or two key vampires can very 
much slow down other decks by limiting their capability to 
Govern out company, play Enkil Cog, etc.
Went up to 90 library cards to include two copies of sense the 
sin for solid ousting power and three dreams for better cards 
flow. Both turned out to be a good idea - thanx to Martin Major.

Steve Van Nus' Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Brujah Mass Debate
Author : Steve Van Nus
Description : Deck designed to get weenies princes out quick, parity’s for 
pool damage/gain which also gives strong deal making power. Brujah Debates 
for defence/offence, hopefully making prey/predator thinking twice before 
blocking. Has a some combat so you hopefully don’t get totally pole-axed 
when table starts working together to remove Debates (which happens). 
Immortal Grapples are there to keep other decks that pack strike combat/dodge 
decks (and no prevention) nervous about blocking, & blood dolls in there to 
reduce your pool if prey is staying under parity shift range, and for 
blood/pool management. Carthage Remembered + computer hacking worked well 
in one game. Second Tradition for block defence worked well.

Card’s I’d take out: Well-Aimed Car (placed in there for shits & giggles, 
never got to use), would replace for stunt cycle or sew lid. Would take out 
1 pulled fang and replace with 1 disarm (grappled and disarmed Anneke after 
she blocked cross table as she kept voted down most of what I did-which 
is understandable).

Possible additions:- Another Dreams of the Sphinx , Smiling Jack, 
Specialization, Parthenon (I could not find any I owned otherwise 
on the day I would have had 3-4 in deck).

Andreas Nusser's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : "Tai Chi Walking Stick Form" by Miller & his students
Author : Andreas Nusser
Description :
Winner of the German ECQ 2013. So far I have played this deck for 6 games. 
3 Game Wins and some VPs in the other games. Seems pretty solid deck 
construction to me and the cards are very balanced. Miller is important 
but not a key vampire that you have to rely uopn.

Fleetness are great in combination with Palla Grande. Always had enough 
forward pressure. Art Scams were extremelly important for blood gain and 
saved me a lot of times.

Description : I got the original idea from Anders Löf. He was running it 
with Nana and Ashur rush combat without reaction cards. I decided that I 
wanted to run it with Aksinya with reactions instead. The decks are quite 
different but the idea with high amount of Pentex(TM) works kinda the same.

Description: New York City Qualifier Tournament Deck Winner 2013
A Tzimisce Vote deck. A nice thing is that when going against them, 
you never know what you are facing. Bounce? Combat? Bleed? I knew 
that i would be seeing some Cam vote decks in there so Private 
Audience and Fear of Mekket were a must. Purchase Pact barely 
made the cut but I figured with Radu I should try it. It even 
works in torpor! And instead of a variety of combat, I went back 
to good ole' agg + Rotschreck.

Robert Goudie's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Nike Cult
Author: Robert Goudie
The cool trick of the deck is to use the play of a Heaven's Gate 
to reset the Trap counters and continue the combat (the minions 
in combat do not need to be the ones playing cards to reset a trap).

Robert Goudie's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Draba Jack
Author: Robert Goudie
Description:
Based on Ference Vasadi's Ravnos Deck
Resilient Deck that just refused to die. In the finals I 
had to play the Week of Nightmares much earlier than I would 
have liked. Ousted my prey but within a few turns the Week 
of Nightmares counters would all expire and slam my vamps. 
Took the opportunity to rearrange my blood a bit via Vessel 
and then blew up the Week on my own turn so that I could 
control things a bit. By ordering those effects I saved one 
vamp and was able to hold on for the victory.

Ke Carlton's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Eternal Abuse
Created by: Ke @ vtes-consumed.blogspot.com
Description: Switched Legal's to Intimidation for blood management, 
also added 1x covern and jake - reduced Lilyth's to 1x copy as not 
really needed now. Deck is quite low on stealth, but permastealth 
and corruption counters offset that. Cagliostro is awesome when paired 
with Nakhhorheb and the extra discard phase is great to avoid hand jams. 
Minimal bounce, but having Keith untapped generally discourages big bleeds. 
Added extra Majesties and Mental Mazes for UK meta. Could do with 1x Golconda.

David Litwin's Tournament Winning Deck with 5 VPs in the final.

Deck Name : All of a Sudden
Author : Pagan
Description : After getting obliterated in the first tournament by 
voting decks I broke out one of mine I had been trying on JOL with 
on and off success. After a fair showing in R1&2 the deck took 
advantage of a great series of turns late in the final. Early on 
it got rushed into the ground by Deep Song and spent midgame rescuing 
and hunting, while taking a shot at its prey when able. After the ANI 
rush had to go upstream the deck got a turn and ousted the next 3 preys 
with 3 consecutive KRCs, with the ANI not able to dunk enough vampires 
in the all but meaningless last few turns. The deck has trouble with 
any real intercept and the Sacrifice was used twice by Kyle Strathcona 
to kill a Neighbor John.

Dan Apholz's Tournament Winning Deck with 4 VPs in the Final

Deck Name : Mr Clean
Author : Dan Apholz feat Pagan
Description :
Modified from an early deck borrowed from David it provides 
enough stealth to beat light intercept and voting power to 
get votes though. During each round the deck ran into little 
in the way of strong intercept or opposing voters. Each game 
the initial prey and predator were unable to produce enough 
intercept and opposing voters too few to overcome votes or 
handle Scalpel Tongues or vote push. Would reconsider adding 
Klaus back in as a 4th minion as the deck can easily get a 
4th minion into play if given the time.

Petrus Makkonen's Tournament Winning Deck with 4 VPs in the Finals

Deck Name: Goodbye Lilith's Blessings
Author: Petrus Makkonen
Description:
Basically, I just wanted to abuse Lilith's Blessing before it 
got banned in VEKN sanctioned tournaments. Also, G2-3 Ventrue 
are really really cool and I had never played them before.
I'd rather have a second Arika instead of a third Marcus Vitel, 
but I didn't own any.

Tomasz Kliszewski's Tournament Winning Deck with 2.5 VPs in the Finals

Deck Name: Piper Ghoul
Author: Lukasz Saczek
Description:
A deck put up two years ago by Lukasz Saczek for my appearence in Lublin as well. 
Since that very event, I had the opportunity to play with it on several occasions. 
I decided to use it again for the lack of time required to come up with a new 
construction. Personally, I find it mediocre. Or, what is more probable, I simply 
cannot drive it the way proper. It was like the fifth tourney I tried War Ghouls, 
and this one yielded their very first Game Win. Luckily, in the momentum prim.

Kym Alishahi's Tournament Winning Deck 

Deck Name : Cock Robin Espionage Network
Author : Kym Alisashi
Description :
(Special thanks to Drace Zhan for introducing me to Alonzo 
Guillen as an addition to the crypt)
The purpose of this Cock Robin/Deep Song/Enkil Cog iteration is 
to greatly boost that deck archetype's versatility by taking 
advantage of the powerful support abilities of Shahid and Alonzo 
Guillen. Extra hand size/hand building combined with being able 
to see predator/prey hands is the reason I call it the espionage 
network because like good secret service networks in the world the 
deck can see exactly what its target is doing and act accordingly. 
It can be played in a variety of ways depending on the table.

Kevin Mullen's Tournament Winning Deck with 3 VPs in the Finals

Deck Name : Miller Time
Author : Kevin Mullen
Description :
This is one of the first decks I made. It was very rewarding to finally 
win a tournament with it. As the Boston VTES group will tell you, I'm 
the Miller guy. This deck has undergone an evolution from a committed 
intercept combat deck, to a bleed deck emphasizing Palla Grande and a 
combat package to discourage blocking. Focus on high efficiency permanents 
allows the deck to mostly focus on reactions and combat. If you replicate 
this deck make sure to spread the damage masters and bow amongst your 
minions so other players don't want to block them. Punching with Miller 
for 4 is fun, but doesn't get you GWs.

Aaron Clark's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Angelica Ascendant
Created By: Aaron Clark
Description: It won a tournament, but can it win a game? 
Angelica's special means that Ascendances can be used for 
intercept as well as pool gain. She gets Eternal Vigilance 
and a .44 Magnum and blocks. Anson provides support, cycling
masters faster and providing Angelica with blood from the 
Fifth Tradition. Fish for weenies, stealth bleed or bruise 
bleed for the VP.

I felt perpetually short on bleed during the tournament, 
and after having written out the decklist, I see that I 
had fewer bleed cards than I thought. At minimum, one 
Shroud of Night should be switched for a Threats. One of 
the Ascendances probably should be changed to a Pentex 
Subversion for contesting or lunging, but Pentex is less 
prevalent in L.A. than in other places.

Dennis Lien's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : The 7th Tradition: Parity Shift
Author : Dennis Lien
Description :
This was one hairy final.  I was down to 1 pool like 3 times.  
I ended up killing my prey with a shift and finished off my grand 
prey by Justicar Retributioning his main vamp.  If I ran this 
again, I'd definitely run 4 shifts and 4 boons instead.  
Keep on bleedin.
Peace

I got 1 GW 7 VPs in the preliminary rounds and 3 VPs 
in the final. The key to the final was to sit away 
from the aus-weenies and to start moving forwards at 
the right moment, ie. when I could oust my prey and 
the aus-weenies in one turn.
I've had this deck assembled since Twilight Rebellion 
came out. It's been tweaked and played every once in 
a while, and at the moment I'm pretty happy with it.

Tiago Brum's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Better Gents, Same Sticks, No Parity Shifts. Ever.
Author: Tiago Brum
Description: Govern Superior as much as possible.
Most times, people don't see this deck as the table threat, even after 4 minions.
I think it's because players have irrational fears of stealth, big cap vampires, 
players with vote lock, pure rush, walls...
I'm happy with list. Almost the same list that I took to the Final of EC 2012.

Matias Frosterus' Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : This Isn't That Kind of a Deck, Honest!
Author : Matias Frosterus
Description :
No Mytherceria other than the 5 Gremlins this deck relies on simply
Obtenebration and Dominate. No way of taking blood off of Vampires
since they tend to use it for playing the cards. Nocturns help against
rush and allowed for a high amount of On the Qui Vive and therefore
Redirections compared to Deflections. The name comes from me when
people expected the deck to be full of mytherceria cards.

Dennis Lien's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Extremely Silent and Incredibly Far Away
Author : Dennis Lien
Description :
This is a modification of an old deck idea where I tried to have 
Tariq "atone" and block everything.  This version is much more 
balanced and simply tries to use Tariq's abilities with the possiblity 
of an Atonement.  I can already see a few flaws in the design.  
I think I'll dump the Necromancy and Anima Gathering angles and 
just put in more reactions and action mods.

I was very fortunate to win the tourney.  It was a really fun final 
and very competitive.  David Anderson as my prey looked like he had 
it until Brett "archoned" his Mu-aziz.  I lost Tariq to Brett's Carlton 
but was able to bleed out David with what I had left and hold on until 
the game timed out.

Martin Schumacher's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Gehenna is a Hoax: Triple B (Bleed, Bruise, Block)
Author: Martin Schumacher
Description: 2 GW, 8,5 VP in the Preliminary Rounds, Won the Finals 
as Top Seed with 1,5 VP with 4 Players remaining.

Latest additions are Haven Uncovered, which is gold as the action to 
remove the haven is basically another rush. Finally replaced Walk of 
Flame with Flames of the Netherworld, which is also a good thing. 
And yes, you do need 2 Hearts, because if u draw it and can't use 
Magic, it will almost certainly get blocked.

Heikki Palomäki's Tournament Winning Deck with 5 VPs in the Finals

Deck Name: Heavy duty
Created By: Heikki Palomäki
Description: Shameless obf dom S&B.; A lot of titles for table control 
and vote protection. There is also a sizable reaction package for bleed 
defence. Using murmur of the false will as main defence gives this deck 
a great advantage, not only because it can be used for bleeding and 
bouncing, but because it is free. Vampires can be villeined to very 
little blood as governs are almost only ways of losing blood. 
This deck is obviously very vulnerable to rushes but votes work pretty 
well as protection against diableries as well. Secure Haven, Golconda, 
Reins of Power and Obediences would be great additions to this deck but 
it would require taking something else out.

Vincent Ripoll's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Enkidu PRO CEL
Author : Vincent Ripoll
Description :
I got some inspiration from Aleksi Nuora's TWD to build this one. 
Protean and Celerity are great costless polyvalent combat disciplines 
(there are only 3 Claws that cost blood amongst the 60 combat cards). 
I playtested and tweaked it lots of time during our weekly session 
(thanks to my patient victims) and I'm quite happy about it.

Crypt [13 vampires] Capacity min: 1 max: 11 average: 6.30769
------------------------------------------------------------
 6x Enkidu, The Noah 	11 ANI CEL OBF POT PRO for 	!Gangrel:4
 2x Andre LeRoux 	 3 aus 				Toreador:5
 1x T.J. 		 3 cel for 			Gangrel:4
 1x Clifton Derrik 	 2 cel 				Brujah:4
 1x Leo Washington 	 2 cel pro 			!Gangrel:4
 1x Sean Andrews 	 2 cel 				Toreador:4
 1x Iris Bennett 	 1 pro 				Caitiff:5

Enkidu in 5 copies sometimes didn't show up. 
I added one copy (with a 13-crypt card to draw more side-kicks)

Library [90 cards]
------------------------------------------------------------
Action [8]
 1x Aranthebes, The Immortal -> as always, to contest or to give me some 
	protection against weenie decks (or even intercept... it's a great card)
 1x Bum's Rush
 1x Deep Song
 1x Heroic Might -> makes some combat easier, but is not vital
 2x Rumble
 1x Sense Death
 1x Taunt the Caged Beast

Action Modifier [2]
 2x Enkil Cog -> allows permanent multirush and can give the edge 
	during's your predator's turn. The +1 bleed is great also. 
	Really a key card.

Combat [59]
 3x Canine Horde -> why play Drawing when you can get rid of that 
	Ivory Bow/.44 Magnum or Heart of Nizchetus?
 3x Claws of the Dead -> should always be used to burn vampires. 
	Can get rid of Ponticulus/Tye/Ambrosius
 9x Earth Meld -> defensive, untap, works well with Psyche! and 
	is free. Can't ask more
 2x Flesh of Marble -> cycles easily, handles War Ghoul/Carrion/.44 
	blur etc.
16x Psyche! -> key card, even 16 are sometimes not enough
11x Pursuit
 2x Skin of Steel
 4x Stutter-Step -> saves slots, can be used by the sidekicks to dodge
 9x Taste of Vitae

Equipment [1]
 1x Gran Madre di Dio, Italy -> against Tupdogs, Nocturns...

Master [12]
 4x Blood Doll -> slow pool gain and blood management to feed Enkidu.
 1x Guardian Angel -> the permanent "prevent 1" is a real life saver.
 1x Monster -> permanent untap
 1x Pentex(TM) Subversion -> for contest or to lock an annoying minion 
	(Ponticulus or the guy with the gun). Can also 	slow down your 
	predator when you don't have Enkidu yet)
 2x Sudden Reversal -> To be kept against Pentex, Temptation of Greater Power etc.
 3x Wider View

Master come quite quickly because you cycle lots of cards. You can even 
jam with master even there are only 12 of them, but it's quite rare.

Reaction [6]
 6x Sense the Savage Way -> to block of course, but protects also 
	against Rötschreck/Mind Numb/Sensory Deprivation

Retainer [2]
 1x Homunculus -> not vital, but useful once you have Enkil Cog
 1x Raven Spy -> helpful, but not vital.

Pascal Bertrand's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : True Brujah Wall
Author : Pascal "floppyzedolfin" Bertrand
Description :
The deck is fairly resilient. It's some kind of Una mono-vampire 
machine, with intercept provided by the Anima Gatherings (so, yes, 
it IS a True Brujah Wall deck). Enkil Cog is pretty much a GW-insurance.
During the rounds, a few points were important:
  - Powerbase Zurich would be an extremely nice addition.
  - Summon History could be added (up to 3 copies)
  - Perfect Paragon isn't as good as Tangle Atropo's Hand.

Aleksi Nuora's Tournament Winning Deck with 3 VPs in the Finals

Deck Name : Undele's Bag of Dicks
Author : Aleksi Nuora
Description : Bring out big guys with Zillah's to secure a fast vote lock, 
proceed to win with Undele. For defending and breaking stalemates, pull dick
moves like recycling Banishment, DI, Entrancement or Pentex. Very difficult 
to stop by the time it gets a third minion out.

The burn option cards are a mix of whatever I had within arm's reach at the 
time I built the deck. Ideally, they would all be masters to feed Anthelios. 
The deck needs a sixth Villein in order to draw one reliably and early, 
probably in place of Golconda or Giant's Blood. If I was expecting heavy 
bleeding I would also add a second Protected Resources.

Jyri Puhakka's Tournament Winning Deck with 3 VPs in the Finals

Deck Name: Mummies with style
Author: Jyrkkä
Description:
This is a modified version of Izaak Havelaar's Mummy deck. 
I agree with points made by Izaak but keeping the local 
meta game (eg. no single allies are safe without a heavy 
intercept) and my card selections in mind I ended up with 
this version. I would change Anachronism to DI for the 
sake of simplicity.

Vincent Ripoll's Tournament Winning Deck with 3 VPs in the Finals

Deck Name : Enkidu PRO CEL
Author : Vincent Ripoll
Description :
I got some inspiration from Aleksi Nuora's TWD to build this one. 
Protean and Celerity are great costless polyvalent combat 
disciplines (there are only 3 Claws that cost blood amongst 
the 60 combat cards). I playtested and tweaked it lots of 
time during our weekly session (thanks to my patient victims) 
and I'm quite happy about it. 

Crypt [13 vampires] Capacity min: 1 max: 11 average: 6.30769
------------------------------------------------------------
 6x Enkidu, The Noah 	11 ANI CEL OBF POT PRO for 	!Gangrel:4
 2x Andre LeRoux 	 3 aus 				Toreador:5
 1x T.J. 		 3 cel for 			Gangrel:4
 1x Clifton Derrik 	 2 cel 				Brujah:4
 1x Leo Washington 	 2 cel pro 			!Gangrel:4
 1x Sean Andrews 	 2 cel 				Toreador:4
 1x Iris Bennett 	 1 pro 				Caitiff:5

Enkidu in 5 copies sometimes didn't show up. I added one copy 
(with a 13-crypt card to draw more side-kicks)

Library [90 cards]
------------------------------------------------------------
Action [8]
 1x Aranthebes, The Immortal -> as always, to contest or to give me 
	some protection against weenie decks (or even intercept... 
	it's a great card)
 1x Bum's Rush
 1x Deep Song
 1x Heroic Might -> makes some combat easier, but is not vital
 2x Rumble
 1x Sense Death
 1x Taunt the Caged Beast

Action Modifier [2]
 2x Enkil Cog -> allows permanent multirush and can give the edge 
	during's your predator's turn. The +1 bleed is great also. 
	Really a key card.

Combat [60]
 3x Canine Horde -> why play Drawing when you can get rid of 
	that Ivory Bow/.44 Magnum or Heart of Nizchetus?
 3x Claws of the Dead -> should always be used to burn vampires. 
		Can get rid of Ponticulus/Tye/Ambrosius
 9x Earth Meld -> defensive, untap, works well with Psyche! 
		and is free. Can't ask more
 2x Flesh of Marble -> cycles easily, handles War 
		Ghoul/Carrion/.44 blur etc.
 1x Infernal Pursuit -> useful when you need to draw some key cards 
		or discard master that clog the hand
16x Psyche! -> key card, even 16 are sometimes not enough
11x Pursuit
 2x Skin of Steel
 4x Stutter-Step -> saves slots, can be used by the sidekicks to dodge
 9x Taste of Vitae

Equipment [1]
 1x Gran Madre di Dio, Italy -> against Tupdogs, Nocturns...

Master [11]
 4x Blood Doll -> slow pool gain and blood management to feed Enkidu.
 1x Guardian Angel -> the permanent "prevent 1" is a real life saver.
 1x Monster -> permanent untap
 1x Pentex(TM) Subversion -> for contest or to lock an annoying minion 
	(Ponticulus or the guy with the gun). Can also slow down your 
	predator when you don't have Enkidu yet)
 2x Sudden Reversal -> To be kept against Pentex, Temptation of Greater Power etc.
 2x Wider View
	Master come quite quickly because you cycle lots of cards. 
	You can even jam with master even there are only 11 of them, 
	but it's quite rare.

Reaction [6]
 6x Sense the Savage Way -> to block of course, but protects also 
			against Rötschreck/Mind Numb/Sensory Deprivation

Retainer [2]
 1x Homunculus -> not vital, but useful once you have Enkil Cog
 1x Raven Spy -> helpful, but not vital.

Jonas Eriksson's Tournament Winning Deck with 5 VPs in the Final

Deck Name: DEM bleed
Author: Idea by Donk, corrected by Randyman
Result: Two rounds + finals: First 5 vp+gw, second 1 vp. 
5 vp+gw in the final (all 5-player tables).
Description: "The idea is that in our current meta there are many 
slow decks that relies on Zillah's, and when I always have a Sudden 
Reversal to counter it they are too slow to stop me. It's also very 
nice to counter the, seemingly, endless pool gain/deck optimization 
from Ashur Tablets. Any changes would probably be to switch Dreams 
for another Touch of clarity, if I had it."

Robert Scythe's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: The Gospel According To Set

Description: This deck can be rather difficult to play, but
is pretty fun. With self Temptations, Firebrands and
Abdelsobek a lot of Multi-acting nonsense ensues. One of the
Obfuscate cards should be a Serpentis, Carlton Van Wyk should 
probably just replace the Set's Curse and The Uncoiling was 
in here, dammit, it even fits thematically.

Brett Schofield's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Third Party Politics - Velya for President
Author: Brett Schofield
Description:
A somewhat traditional "tap and cap" deck backed up with 
the stealth offered by Vicissitude. I was pretty fortunate 
in that I didn't face a real wall deck, and I was the only 
political deck in the finals. But it is pretty ridiculous 
how much pool this deck can acquire.

Crypt Selection: Velya and Lambach are the stars. Obviously 
it is best for Velya to use Voter Cap, but refilling Lambach 
for future Minion Taps is pretty good. I think there are a 
couple of modifications that could be made to this deck. 
More copies of Sascha Vykos (adv) could be added - she has 
an amazingly good ability, but it is frustrating that she 
can't use Mind of the Wilds for stealth. Sames goes for 
Matteus, Flesh Sculptor (!Toreador) who could replace Meshenka.

Library: Over all, I was pleased with the amount of defense 
(combat and bounce), stealth, and vote push this deck packs. 
I only saw early crypt acceleration in one game, but it seems 
hard to justify adding any more. On hind sight, I would 
definitely drop the Crusade. I was surprised how often I 
ended using Changeling to bleed.

Matias Frosterus' Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Mora AKA Princes Outsource Their Stealth
Author : Matias
Description : The idea is to be able to consistently bleed for 
four at three stealth and then I added the ridiculously good 
defense module of Second Tradition. You need one vampire with 
superior obfuscate and then preferably a different vampire 
with the Prince title and presence since veiling and playing 
Second Tradition and Majesty takes blood. Parity Shift because 
why not - the easiest vote to negotiate through.

Jorge Delgado's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : The Spanish Tornado
Author : Soufiane Bouzouf, modifications by Jorge Delgado
Description :
Qualified last for the final (with only 2 VPs and no GWs). I think I had 
very bad luck with table positions in the whole tournament in general, 
where I tried desperately to maximize my VPs, but was victim of multiple 
rushes in 2/3 tables. In the final I think I had really good luck with 
the positions (since I entered last). That, plus my patience, plus 
Guilhem's kamikaze gameplay gave me the GW.

Didn't have any Jackie, so in fact it should be -1 Eddie Gaines and 
+1 Jackie. I'm actually thinking of taking out 1 Misdirection and 
1 Tribute to the Master to include 1 Sudden Reversal. The deck works 
quite ok in General.

John Bell's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Brad's Angry Dragon
Author : John Bell
Description : Deck idea shamelessly stolen from a deck Mattias 
played at last year's NAC. I made some alterations mainly in 
the bloat/blood gain mechanisms for the deck as well as wanting 
to remain firmly at 60 cards maximum (with Ashur Tablets). Some 
changes would be ensure The Unmasking was included as well as a 
Direct Intervention and perhaps 2 Freak Drives - I often found 
myself with the difficult choice of playing Renewed Vigor on 
Anu or a Spirit Marionette on my prey. Heidelberg Castle would 
have also made a fine addition.

Milos Krstic's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : White Wedding
Played by : Milos Krstic
Author : Milos Krstic
Description : This deck,even tho it looks like standard spirit 
marionette hijacker,is in fact stealth & bleed deck that uses 
people's fear of marionette+heidelberg castle to make them tap 
thus shutting down block/bleed redirection defense of prey (also 
it stops predator from blocking undirected actions easely).
Paying 3 pool in order to have a team of Salubris is not so bad 
since their texts generate way more pool then that,and AUS 
smallcaps make good and cheap support/defense.  The dreaded 
German castle is of course used to strip marionetted vampires 
off their blood,but since most of the time people will be tapped 
its main use is to make lunge attacks with bleed retainers.
In retrospect i would add some 5-10 cards since this deck burns 
alot of cards each turn, which resulted in me being decked out 
3 out of 4 rounds i played.I had 2GWs/8VPs pre-finals, 2GWs/10VPs total.

Adam Hulse's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Ghouls Occupy Wall Street version 2
Author : Adam Hulse
Description :
Even the ghouls have begun to protest! The ring leader 
is a very charismatic Smiling Jack. Very peacefully mind you.
But when you get them riled up they go to your home and assault 
your corporations with sticks and bats!

[This is version 2, version 1 won the 2012 Boston TempleCon Qualifier, 
which can be found at http://www.thelasombra.com/decks/twd.htm#2012ctqwri]

Version 3 was played for Day 2 NAC, but couldn't beat 
the mighty Martin (congrats btw!). Some interesting 
discussion how to give it a little more forward power)

Deck Name: 	Euro Brujah
Author: 	Edward McGlynn
Description:
We've all seen it before. Conditioning/Deflection and Torn 
Signpost/Immortal Grapple. Has an assortment of celerity and 
taste of vitae for combat and the bare minimum of master cards.

My own flavor was a couple of political actions and Judgement: 
Camarilla Segregation. I chose Flurry of Action for its dual use.

the star player of the deck.

Robert Scythe's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Valley of the Shadows of Death
Created by: Robert Scythe
Description: A rearrangement of my Nocturn/Shadow Twin no repeat 
crypt deck that always fared well. I decided to make Isanwayen 
more important and explore his special. Not as no-brainer obvious 
as the other 3 multi-master phase action vamps, I decided to try 
and exploit him anyway since I hadn't seen any decent non-straight 
up stealth bleed versions. Could use some tweaking but I only put 
it together a few days before the tournament.

Ira Fay's Tournament Winning Deck with 3 VPs in the Finals

Deck Name : Tribute to Jay 2
Author : Ira Fay
Description :
Jay Kristoff has inspired previous decks of mine (http://thelasombra.com/decks/twd.htm#2k7ctw1), 
and this deck was also inspired by him, hence the name. You can read all about his deck here:
http://vekn.net/index.php/forum/9-event-reports-and-twd/10918-twd-the-unnamed-newark-ohio-september-24th-2011

With some research from Mephistopheles, Jay outlined 6 design goals for his deck:
1) 9-12 different vampires without a star
2) Many pool generating cards
3) Cards that move vamps from crypt to uncontrolled
4) 60 cards
5) Doesn't appear frightening
6) Unusual
 
I started by thinking about what +2 Pool action I could take. It's hard to get that many Art Scams, 
so I settled on Dark Mirror of the Mind. Then I had to figure out how to get a bunch of 8+ caps.  
Eternals of Sirius was the best answer I could find, and it also solved #3 since I could use Mesu 
Bedshet. I think I succeeded on all the design goals except #5, since it's really hard to convince 
people that you're not frightening when you have 5 or more 8+ caps.

Mikko Tervonen's Tournament Winning Deck with 3 VPs in the Finals

Deck Name: The Ghosts of Your Loss
Author: Mikko Tervonen
Description:
My first Harbinger deck. Everything worked like a dream.
Card cycle was awesome with all the vampire specials, Maabara, Fragment, 
Gear Ups and Dreams. Anarch Converts are there mainly because I don't own 
any more Harbingers than that.
In the future I would drop the Murder of Crows, reduce Trochomancy by 2, 
add a Kiss of Ra and maybe 1 Gear Up or 2 Carrion Crows. The deck itself 
is too big. I'd try to reduce the decksize to 80.

Robert Scythe's Tournament Winning Deck with 3.5 VPs in the Finals

Deck Name: Animal Trackers
Created By: Robert Scythe
Description: This was a rather old deck that had been updated 
with newer cards for kicks. I hardly played it, however, because 
of the popularity of animalism. When the tournament was about to 
begin all of my decks were kind of in pieces, so I grabbed this one 
- miscounted how many cards were in it (should have left it as 
it was) - and proceeded to add in 4 Ashur's and an HoN. Well, 
3 of the Tablets and an Anton (there were 4 originally) fell 
under a table. I noticed the crypt shortage and tossed in another 
Taylor from a different deck but did not notice the fallen Lbrary 
cards, thankfully, since that would have made it 92 cards and 
illegal. I did have to contend with one useless Ashur's and a 
card ratio I would want to tweak but the deck drew well all 
tournament. It is focused on dealing with S:CE and did a 
commendable job. Anton and The Taylor came out every round 
and at least one other, would change it to 4 and 4 and add 
another Wider View or 2.

Alexander Båskman's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Geezers will find powerbleed
Created By: Alexander Båskman
Description: Inspired by Stefan Karlssons Geezers will find deck 
and of course the Girls will find deck by Teemu Sainomaa.
As you all can see this deck is quite straight forward, 
the keyword is bleed.

To the deck itself, there should be at least one copy of Mind Rape 
and an additional Giant's Blood. It should be one less copy of 
Lilith's Blessing since I never used it and never wanted to.

John Bell's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : The Princess and her Mistress
Author : Mark Loughman (slightly modified by John Bell)
Description :
When I came back to VTES about 2 years ago, I built Mark Loughman's 
"Traditional Princess" deck www.thelasombra.com/decks/twd.htm#2k9glrqco 
and played it a few times casually. It really changed the way I looked at 
the game and deck construction in general. I give him (and this deck) 
a big credit to my successes since then. I did make some changes for 
the tournament - mostly adding Mistress Fanchon and Villeins. 
Fanchon's ability is so good for this kind of toolboxy deck, 
I may even add more of her the next time I update it.

Jennifer Goldberg's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : What the... Ravnos?
Author : Jen Goldberg
Description :
Vaclav Petalengro showed up in my crypt draw every single round, 
and every single round, my response was 'What the heck are you 
doing in this deck?' He's got ANI and fort, but there has got to 
be something better to replace him with, even an Anarch Convert 
would probably be an improvement. I'd be seriously tempted to try 
replacing him with a second Ingrid if I play this again. The game 
I got her out, she was a huge benefit, mostly due to her +2 transfers. 
All the other vampires in my crypt draw were always preferable 
to Vaclav, which really says something.

I'd probably also try to put in more Freak Drives, and definitely 
more Deep Songs, I only own one, thus the lack of them in the deck. 
Other than that, it's a Gangrel deck that does Gangrel things.

John Bell's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : The Terrible Two's
Author : John Bell
Description : The burn option mechanic really helps to get the 
permanents into play quickly while not having to stack multiple 
copies of several cards. The deck works really well in a low 
intercept environment and it doesn't particularly like combat 
either. The main defenses are to have numbers, bloat and use 
the Hungry Coyote to keep rescuing or embracing. The Waste 
Management Op is really strong once the library is depleted - 
in the finals I was able to retrieve Delaying Tactics to 
repeatedly stymie Anarchist Uprising which would have hit me 
for 22 pool.

Martin Schumacher's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Triple B (Bleed,Bruise & Block)
Created By: Martin Schumacher
Description: Did some of the changes I talked
about after Arnheim last week.  Ditched the Governs 
for more Conditionig, which worked very well. Added 
another Valerius ADV cause I expected S&B; (I was wrong).
Added 1 Magic/ 1 IR Goggles, had no impact.  Still played 
Walk of Flame, was useless again, need to get my hands on 
some Flames of the Netherworld.  Put in Smiling Jack, but 
the deck is not blocky enough to defend it against more 
than 1 player. Missed Chantry a whole lot this tourney, 
might put it in instead of Jack.  This deck could really 
benefit from 2-3 Nose of the Hound to get rid of deflectors 
before lunging, need to make room.

John Bell's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : 1...2...Skip a Few (turns)
Author : John Bell
Description : I had a deck like this back in 2001, added Papillion 
and Lilith's Blessing, hoping to keep blood on the minions. 
The deck is very fast and almost guarantees that a table will not 
time out. It's difficult to not make a target of yourself early, 
especially if the First Traditions come up. The deck runs well 
without them, but they keep the pool/minion count low enough to 
ensure an advantage in most cases. The Justicar Retribution was 
the all-star heads-up in the finals, burning Stanislava when 
I had complete vote control.

Stefan Karlsson's Tournament winning deck

Deck Name : Glöggansiktet Gerald
Author : Stefan Karlsson 
	(with moral support by Isak Esbjörnsson Bjärmark)
Description : This is some sort of Freak Show but I can not 
stress enough that this is no one-turn deck. Ankara Citadel 
first of course and then tool up with 5-10 actions each turn, 
one of them being a bleed as big as possible that needs to 
end up at prey's pool. The recursable Command the Legion 
and Revelations makes this deck shine, everything else is 
situational.

Martin Schumacher's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Triple B (Bleed, Bruise & Block)
Created By: Martin Schumacher
Description: Govern is not that good here, since superior
can only be played on the 2 6-caps. Maybe 3 Govern 
7 Conditioning is the way to go. Also I wanted to play 
4 Flames of the Netherworld (but didnt't have any) and 
6 Apportation, so I settled for 3 Walk of Flame and 
7 Apportation.  WoF was used once in 4 games so should 
be cut, and Apportation should be upped to 8-10. Powerbase: 
Barranquilla should go, I'd like to include 1 more Magic 
of the Smith and a IR Goggles. Always!!! get Heart of 
Cheating as fast as possible. Games went: 0, GW 2VP, 
GW 2VP (4 players) Finals GW 3 VP, 2VP to Grand Prey

Tap and bleed with broken master module.
Should be around 80 cards but does need the Anarchist and the Entrancements

actually thought in Warsaw and London that there was a Cog somewhere in the 
deck...

Djordje Bjelajac's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Nobody expects the Shattering Crescendo.

Original deck by Otso Saariluoma. Tweaked to handle a little bit more 
intercept.  I saw the idea on TWDA and since it featured two of my 
favorite vampires I decided to try it out and loved the concept. 
The concept is to get both Unmada and Scout Youngwood out, then recruit 
your allies and call parity shifts and reckless agitations on your prey 
to get him/her to villein/tap or otherwise empty his/her vampires. Then 
you start playing your shattering crescendos. Slow to start, but gets 
stronger as the game progresses. I used to have another Dreams of the 
Sphinx in the deck but it seems I put it in another deck since I use 
this primarily for fun. It turned out well, since it would have just 
contested on every table. I also noticed that in three of the four games 
I played I managed to slow the Ashur decks considerably since I always 
offered to play Ashurs after my opponents finished their first cycle if 
they would also do the same. However, I only have one master phase and 
six ashurs to start with and if the opponents stick to the deal it hurts 
them in the long run.

John Bell's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Judgment Columbus: Blocking is Pain
Author : John Bell
Description : I had a deck around 5 years ago that was played with 
the "tap & cap" model - Villein, Papillon and Ashur's Tablets only 
makes this better. The deck was conceived to punish many of the 
wall-type decks, which are often in vogue around here. It's very 
resilient, often difficult to oust, especially without having to 
deal with Immortal Grapple.

Deck Name: El sereto debe mantenerse
Author: Noel Gimenez Infante
Description:  Este es el deck con el que pude ganar el nacional, 
la verdad es que no me tocó ninguna mesa fácil y me tocó remar 
muchísisisimo para llegar a la final. (Pico y piedra) Creo que 
una de las claves de la final fue la mala elección de Ale sentándose 
detrás mío con los tupdogs, tuve que aguantar 16 visitas, pero 
lo pude salvar.  La verdad que excepto en la primera mesa, en todas 
las demás me sobró el intercept, ya que me tocaron palos como panes 
en toda y cada una de las partidas.

Otso Turunen's Tournament Winning Deck with 3 VPs in the Finals

Deck Name : Nakhthorheb likes Angry Juice
Author : Otso Turunen
Description : Old news, Mokole Blood is fantastic. Inspired by 
a deck played by Tuomas Vuokko and many similar decks on the 
internet. I was rarely blocked or bounced, so without Mokole 
Bloods I probably would have jammed badly on stealth. Pentex 
in the opening hand saved me from a rush predator in the finals.

Brad Cashdollar's Tournament Winning Deck with 3 VPs in the Finals

Deck Name : Nicole's Angry Dragon
Author : Brad Cashdollar
Description :
Changed the Osebo starter I played a few weeks ago and seemed to do Ok....
mainly because no one had Superior Obfuscate at the tables I was in. Also, 
thanks to Mark Loughman for suggesting and hooking me up with 2 more No 
Secrets before the tournament. Definitely needed them, as Block Fail is 
fairly common....

Deck Name : Destructo
Author : Erol (Original Version by Ivan Marin-Rivas)
Description :
Original Version had 15 Ashurs, 8 Liquidation and 3 Heroic Mights. 
I reduced the numbers and put some Villeins in. IMHO it helped 
a lot, regarding survivability. Always had enough combat cards 
and rushes. I would only try to add following things, another 
Monster, a Golconda, an additional Taste of Vitae. Dragonbound 
could be an option, who knows?!?

Jeffrey Thompson's Tournament Winning Deck with 2.5 VPs in the Finals

Deck Name : Abusing the Public Trust is an Abomination
Author : Lasombra
Description :
Zubeida leads the way, in his own Perfectionist manner, in righting the 
wrongs done by those who are abusing the Public Trust.  (Bleed, add 
stealth, use the gained counter on an uncontrolled vampire, bring another 
one into play that can do the same.)  Frequently spent games with 
2 vampires in torpor.  Assembled in ~20 minutes the morning of the 
tournament, it is missing the Freak Drives and Enticements and Wider 
Views that surely could have made a difference in a few of the rounds.  
Herbert Westin was nowhere to be found during the short time allowed 
for assembly, so Robin Withers made it in instead.

Deck Name: Nergal's a Beast
Created by: Matt Wedge & Robert Scythe based on a TWD by Tomàs López Jiménez
Description: With the fragility of a combo deck such as this we decided 
to make it smaller and utilize Luc, as opposed to fortitiude buddies, for 
his handsize ability and Pentex removal with more obfuscate, plus Sense The 
Sin just invites Archon Investigation to further impede it's flow. Swalloweds 
are decent combat defense (and offense if The Beast needs to visit somebody) 
and Gramle gets the card you need right now. Also with the larger handsize 
the inclusion of one Pentex seemed like a necessary evil, for another way to 
deal with it or to just use it offensively.

David Litwin's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Dirty Sinks
Author : Pagan
Description :
This was a rehash of an older deck I had dismantled before KOT that I redesigned 
with some newer cards and the hope that it played enough S:CE to survive Deep Song.
The deck never got to play a S:CE the entire tournament as every time it was in 
combat it lacked one in hand, making me think it either needs 5-6 more or should 
just remove all the No Trace and take your chances.

The crypt could also be tightened more to make the deck more consistent, I'd drop 
everyone under 8 cap and play a few more copies of the Ventrue so I have more valid 
targets for Zillah's Valley as multiple times I had 7 caps left over in my uncontrolled 
region and no way to cycle a Zillah's Valley to burn the 5 pool.  It would also 
allow an inclusion of Ventrue Headquarters/Ephor with a significantly higher chance of 
being able to put it into play.

Robert Scythe's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Marcus, Marc and the Funky Bunch
Created by: Robert Scythe
Description: This is my Faerie Guardian deck with a couple of changes. 
I put in a Lilith's Blessing for one of the Master Disipline cards 
(not Presence, of course) and replaced a Wake with an Eternal Vigilance 
nicking an idea from John Bell's more defensive Faerie Wards wall deck. 
I didn't mean to play this deck again in a tournament but I hadn't taken 
it apart and it felt right to play at the time. I did forget to put in 
the 2 Perfect Paragons that absolutely belong in it, luckily they didn't 
cost me the game.

Marcin Watras' Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Brujah Debate 60 cards
Author : warGrim
Description : Deck based on Johannes Walch's Brujah Debate deck 
he played during WoN in June. I added 3 cards to the original deck - 
Jake, Carlton and Aranthebes. I would add Dreams of the Sphinx 
instead of Cryptic Rider. Aranthebes wasn't useful but it would 
help to contest it with my prey if he had played one.

This deck has some potencial, but in case your pred/prey is playing 
a deck with fast setup if is very difficult to get VP's. If mid game 
you should have 15+ pool and several minions striking for 3+. Smiling 
Jack is a good option for late game when playing against two players. 
Brujah Debate deck is very strong when played agains unexperienced 
player who had never pleayed agains it before and there are lots of 
them as Brujah Debate decks are not so common these days.

I will play that deck during a bigger tournament in the future.

Kari Mäkinen's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Demented Kindred
Created by: Kari Mäkinen

Description: A fairly straightforward weenie stealth bleed deck,
easy and quick to play, you don't do anything on anyone else's turn
and on your turn just go full forward. Pool gain is completely from
kindred spirits and ousts, and is generally enough unless you have
a very aggressive predator.

Matt Morgan's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Salmon Fishstick
Created by: Matt Morgan, based on Martin Major's deck
Description: It's rush combat with a strong master module. Master cards
are the best in the game. I'd always rather have too many than too few.
The name is because the final was won 2-1-1-1 and Fish and Stick lead the
way while Nana stayed hidden in my crypt. Fish is only in the deck to make
it count as a Guruhi deck for TWDA purposes.

Crypt [12 vampires, average capacity: 4.66667]
 4x Nana Buruku 	ANI POT PRE 	8 Guruhi:4
 1x Fish 		ANI POT pre 	5 Guruhi:4
 1x Beetleman 		ANI obf 	4 Nosferatu:4
 1x Bobby Lemon 	ANI pro 	4 Gangrel:3
 1x Dolie 		abo ani 	3 Akunanse:4
 1x Stick 		ANI 		3 Nosferatu antitribu:4
 1x Mouse 		ani 		2 Nosferatu:3
 1x Zip 		ani 		2 Ravnos:3
 1x Lisa Noble 		ani 		1 Caitiff:3

/* One might wonder why only 4 Nana when she's the star? The answer is that 
it's way better to have no Nana than all Nana. This deck needs a bunch of 
minion actions to succeed */

Library [76 cards]
Master [24]
 2x Animalism
 1x Archon Investigation
 9x Ashur Tablets
 2x Blood Doll
 1x Fame
 1x Giant's Blood
 1x Mbare Market, Harare
 1x Pentex(TM) Subversion
 1x Powerbase: Luanda
 1x Powerbase: Montreal
 1x Rack, The
 2x Villein
 1x Wider View

/* I really liked having AI here in the final, though I wound up not 
playing it. Mbare Market probably isn't worth the slot. Should be a 
2nd Fame, I think. Otherwise the masters worked out very well. */

Action [12]
10x Deep Song
 1x Entrancement
 1x Well-Marked

Equipment [1]
 1x Ivory Bow

/* The Entrancement and Well-Marked didn't really earn their keep at any 
point, though Well-Marked is typically a free action at least. I play 
fewer Deep Songs than Martin's version because I'm not trying to rush 
with every minion with every action. I bleed for 1 a little or stay up. 
I want my prey to go forward. I don't want to simply squish him. Coming 
out of the gate too fast is a mistake. */

Event [1]
 1x Dragonbound

Reaction [6]
 2x Cats' Guidance
 1x Delaying Tactics
 1x On the Qui Vive
 2x Sense the Savage Way

/* Very few reactions. Sense the Savage Way should probably go since only 
Nana can play them. I had multiple situations where I would have liked to 
block with somebody else but couldn't because of the restriction on that 
card. Getting to 2 intercept is nice, but it isn't worth the cost. */

Combat [32]
11x Aid from Bats
 1x Canine Horde
13x Carrion Crows
 3x Target Vitals
 4x Taste of Vitae

/* Very consistent. Not a lot can survive repeated hits from this. Of course 
it's not fun to run into other ANI decks, but them's the breaks. */

Darby Keeney's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Eno Sez Whut (Imbued Chainsaw Rush)
Author : Darby Keeney, largely based on a John Eno design.

A couple of years ago, John stitched the Chainsaw rush into 
a Dancing Imbued deck and the two of us tuned the deck into 
the current state over a couple of months.

It is a bit more fragile than some of the intermediate builds 
but is consistent. I considered adding Veil of Darkness and 
the Rising, but opted to leave them out for this run.

My favorite moment of the tourament win with this deck was 
bleeding with the Vagabound Mystic, who had successfully 
equipped a Laptop Computer, IR Goggles, Leather Jacket and 
the Heart of Nizchetus.

Marcin Watras' Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Shamblingi dla Zygi (Shamblings for Zyga)
Author : warGrim
Description : I've made that deck for my friend Zyga, who has recently sold 
his collection. Unfortunatelly he was unable to play with us, so I decided 
to try this deck out. That was the first time I had played a Gio Shambling 
deck. It is based on Isak Esbjörnsson Bjärmark's "Sudario Hordes" deck with 
some minor changes. I managed to win all three tables with 3 GW and 10 VPs 
in total. It's a nice - strong deck, but I'd add 2 x Adrea to bypass 
+1 intercept blockers. Some Taget Vitals would be also vital in this deck.

Darby Keeney's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Govern is Weak Sauce
Created by: Darby Keeney
Based on/Inspired by: Original deck design.

Description: This deck tries to exploit a card I believed grossly 
overpowered as early as the first glimpse - Brutal Influence.

In this tournament I don't think I ever got above 6 Orun on a single 
vampire for various reasons (predator-based rush, cross table Sense 
Dep, Pentex, contestation). Even at that modest level it's a 
double-strength superior Govern the Unaligned and almost triple-strength 
Govern bleed. Seems pretty good to me, despite the overhead.

The Banishment/Exile module is intended to eliminate bleed deflectors. 
It also provides a great deal of flexibility to deal with other situations, 
including players at the table whose pool management is entirely 
recursion-based (e.g., Villein + Lilith's Blessing) or handling 
players running 11/12-cap minions.

Paul Wiggers' Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Dutch ECQ 2011: Vendetta: Ventrue Antitribu Grinder
Author: Paul Wiggers
Description:

Based on the standard Stick Men deck with some modifications.
There isn't much I would change to the deck. Was thinking about 
including some Nose of the Hound but got convinced by several 
players that bleeding is better the nosing.

In all four games I have discarded the hunting ground. It is a great 
card when you get it in the first 2-3 turns but after that there are 
better ways to spend the pool. I am thinking about replacing the 
Hunting Ground with an Uncoiling. Several Event cards will make 
the game a lot harder for this deck (Unmasking, Blood Weakens, 
The Slow Withering) and having an option to get rid of them could 
help a lot.

Oscar Garza wins the event with 5 VPs in the Final Round.

Round by round details here:
http://themadnessnetwork.blogspot.com/

Deck Name: Samedi
Author: Oscar Garza
Description:
My first 2 rounds were sub-standard as I made a few misplays. Pressing
the Flesh of a Muddled Vampire Hunter in round 3 and the final really
sealed it for me. The Guardian Angel can come out as well as the
Conceal. Inferior obfuscate on all my guys was kind of annoying. It
may need a try with the 2/3 crowd.

Marcin Watras' Tournament Winning Deck with 3 VP in the Final

Deck Name : Tzimisce bleed with Asanbonsam Ghouls
Author : wargrim 
Description : Great deck to play - other players are always 
guessing if I have aggro cards in my hand. Smiling Jack is 
very effective especially when played very early in the game. 
Big disagvantege of this deck is it's speed - it's simply too
slow. Advanteges - played 6 tournament games - never won less 
then 0,5 VP . I would exchange some cards for more T.Vitals or 
Rotschrecks.

Izaak Havelaar's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Pancake Mix
Created By: Izaak Havelaar

Description: Ever since cards like Reunion Kamut and Art of Memory 
were printed, I have been wanting to build a deck with all these 
Black Hand toys. I recently traded for enough Seraph's Seconds to 
build a competitive Black Hand deck and try and get the most out 
of them. I experimented with !Tremere and Lasombra for a bit at 
first, before ending up with Assamites. Of course it should have 
been obvious all along Assamites are the best pick for such a deck, 
since they are the only clan that has two Seraphs in the same 
grouping and get five different Black Hand crypt cards in that 
same grouping.

This deck is a bloat/multiact deck at its core and, but with so 
many actions a turn, it allows you keep pressure on your prey while 
still bloating enough to survive even the most aggressive bleed 
predators. It's especially important to build up a solid ready 
region with at least a Seraph with a Tattoo Signal plus two other 
vampires before you start throwing multiple Losses a turn at your 
prey. Once the Watchtower comes into play even the most dedicated 
wall decks will have trouble blocking every critical action and 
you can oust everyone at your leisure.

1x Giant's Blood
4x Information Highway
1x Pentex(TM) Subversion
5x Villein
2x Watchtower: The Wolves Feed
1x Wider View
1x Yoruba Shrine

// It seems master-heavy at first, but with 6 trifles and four copies 
of Information Highway it works out just fine. There should probably 
go an Archon Investigation in there instead of one of the Info Highways 
or maybe the Yoruba Shrine. The three Ashur Tablets are kinda critical 
as well, because in every game I played with this deck, I ran out of 
cards in the endgame. If one gets cancelled it's not a big deal, because 
you can just retrieve it with the Sargon Fragment. //

Event (4 cards)
1x Blood Trade
1x Break the Code
1x Fourth Cycle, The
1x Thirst

// Fourth Cycle is in there to make sure the Watchtower's upkeep stays 
at one pool per turn when other people play Unmasking or Anthelios. 
As a bonus it also gets rid of them. In the end I never needed it, 
but I still think it's a good idea. //

Action (28 cards)
4x Haqim's Law: Leadership
2x Khabar: Glory
9x Loss
9x Reunion Kamut
4x Tattoo Signal

// This section is perfect. I always had a Loss when I needed one and 
in every game I played so far I have managed to bring out 4 or 5 different 
minions. Reunion Kamut is really good, especially since it works on older 
vampires as well. //

Equipment (1 cards)
1x Sargon Fragment, The

// It's mostly there so I can retrieve a cancelled Ashur Tablet, but 
it's also quite handy to recycle a Loss or a Haqim's Law. I should 
probably add a single copy of Trochomancy to the deck to mess with 
Ashur/Liquidation based decks. //

Action Modifier (20 cards)
4x Art of Memory, The
2x Deed the Heart's Desire
2x Elder Impersonation
3x Faceless Night
3x Lost in Crowds
6x Seraph's Second

// Art of Memory is amazing. I used them to recycle an Elder Impersonation 
to oust a particularly troublesome Henry Taylor twister deck, I used them 
to recycle Haqim's Laws to stay alive against a !Ventrue bleeder without 
a predator and I used them to get lot of mileage out of a single copy of 
Loss. On top of it, you get to flush an unwanted card (say, extra 
Information Highways or Gehenna Events) out of your hand. If I were 
to play it again, I'd swap a Seraph's Second for a fifth Art of Memory. //

Combo (4 cards)
2x Blood Awakening

Description:
Matt Guinn gave me this deck that he won Guide and Mentor: Atlanta
with last month. I made a few changes but the cards I put in never
saw play or did not make any difference during the event. So his
original version is probably better. It is a very good deck, much
stronger than what I typically build and play and it was a lot of fun
to run. Thanks Matt for the deck and thanks to Kevin for another great
event in Las Vegas. Wish we did not have to wait another year for the
next one.

David Litwin's Tournament Winning Deck with 4 VPs in the Finals:

Deck Name: Armin Hammer
Deck Author: David Litwin
Description:
The deck plays generally the same as any stealth/vote deck with a more
interesting stealth module. Ideally Armin Brenner is your first
minion and should always be first unless he isn't in your opening
crypt. He is the only minion in the crypt that can maximize the use
of all cards in the crypt and his 1 pool/vote adds up over the course
of the game. The deck will play quite a few cards each turn and
maximizing cards like Forced March for stealth and untap is key.

The deck can generally bloat fast enough to handle a moderately fast
bleeding predator and Majesty or Resist Earth's Grasp will slow down
Animalism rush significantly while accepting that a Grappling foe will
kill the deck. Undele is key for late game antics to make sure your
two other actions/turn are exactly what you want them to be.

While it never showed, gaining potentially 5 pool calling a Black
Forest Base action is rather nice. The changes I would make after
playing it outside of the local playgroup would be two fewer KRCs and
another Neonate Breach and then some other damage vote or maybe even
a utility vote like Snipe Hunt/Permanent Vacation to take out late
threats that can be brought back. Delaying Tactics recycled in the
finals against me slowed down my offense several turns.

David Wilson's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Homeland Recurred 
Author : David Wilson
Description :  The deck was a lot of fun, but it really needed 
a lot of cycling.  The Recure the Homeland was the all start 
with Burst of Sunlight and Target Vitals, it really did lots 
of damage.  The trick of this deck is to tool up while bounding 
bleeds forwards and backwards around the table, the My Enemies 
Enemy are quite intentional, as this deck doesn't go forward 
too hard, which means my prey gets going, taking table pressure 
off my grand predator, I try to fix that here.  The allies and 
Terrell Harding (wider view needs to be here) suck some blood off 
as a means to stop deflections when you do lunge forward.  
In round one after having 2 allies burned and my first vampire 
with a vessel, blood doll, Ivory bow and Rutor's hand on turn 4, 
I managed to lunge for 12 undeflected 4 turns later with the 
Heidelberg, all the time just bouncing and tweaking blood off 
vampires.  Society of Leopold takes a very close 2nd to all 
star card, it really allowed me to stop other methheads as 
needed.  This deck was something I tooled with on JOL, it 
never did well and I rebuilt it the morning of the event, 
it does have flow problems, so note if you play it, you will 
be discarding every turn if you want a chance in hell.  Truth 
be told, my win came from luck, and my ability to capitalize 
on it.  The last bit of advice, ditch the harvest rites, trust 
me, they suck here.  Thanks to Jay for getting such a large 
showing from Columbus and to the Newark crew for making it out!

Erik Torstensson's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name  : Saulot and Nergal dating
Played by  : Erik Torstensson
Created by : Isak Esbjörnsson Bjärmark
Description :
This deck is based on a deck constructed by Marko Lindroos. 
Marko plays his deck with Possesion and Sargon fragment to 
get Nergal back after Call the Great Beast. The really brilliant 
thing Marko discovered with Saulot and Nergal dating is that 
they are really stealthy and when outferiors comes in to account 
there's alot of stealth available. Of course this deck will 
not break a dedicated blocker, neutral guard helps though.

This deck is really defensive, or should be played that way 
anyways. Saulot should go first to help out with getting the 
other guys. Magic of the Smith should go on Heart first and 
Magic of the Smith should be played as soon as posssible. 
To keep the pressure up, bleeding with Saulot and Nergal 
every turn is essential. Enkil Cog should go on Saulot.

Thanks to #vtes on SorceryNet for critiqueing this

// Veil of Darkness kills tables. Everyone will hate you 
for it (and with good reason), but it's pretty much a key 
card to drop via Fortschritt if necessary. It saves me 
repeatedly, including killing the Stealth on the Ancilla 
Empowerment that would have killed me in the final.

// I've tried running three, you just recycle the Second 
Sight every time anyway.

to manage it, though.

// I have no idea why the more common Nephandus deck runs 10. 
I never see 10, I never can afford 10, and I run out of turns 
before I'd get 10. Young Bloods and Carlton can also Leech.

Antti Tirilä's Tournament Winning Deck

I guess you could call this an Edward Vignes deck without Edward Vignes. 
Anson for extra masters and a nice little vote module. Second tournament, 
second final table with first seed. The deck doesn't really bloat too much 
but it can outlast quite a many threats. I'd change few cards but nothing 
big. Secure Haven saved Anson's sweet *** in two games out of three when 
facing grapple rush or blood suckers like Gabrielle di Righetti & Francois 
Villon (played by prey and predator).

John Bell's Tournament Winning Deck

This deck went into the finals in first with 2GW 8VPs.

Deck Name : He Has To Run Out Sometime...
Author : John Bell
Description :
The deck is so named because every game I have played it, someone at the table
has commented that I would have to run out of Faerie Wards at some point. Until
it's seen in action, it is hard to describe just how effective a wall this deck
can be without blocking at all. The deck is extremely slow, but relies on
locking down its predator to get itself entrenched. Eternal Vigilance really
makes the deck obnoxious - it does require you to block, but judicious usage can
truly sap your predator's will - attempt to block a hunt or vote without
intercept or ensure that you have an Obedience in hand for 0-stealth actions.
The Rack and Papillion for Marconius assure that you can Faerie Wards to your
heart's content and Smiling Jack to end games. The major challenge for the deck
is increasing Marconius' capacity to ensure everyone is a legal target for
Faerie Wards/Banishment.

Crypt [12 vampires] Capacity min: 5 max: 10 average: 8.66667
------------------------------------------------------------
5x Marconius 9 DOM MYT OBT pot archbishop Kiasyd:2
*** Paying 1 less for Faerie Wards is what makes the deck viable in the first
place.

2x Marcus Vitel 10 DOM FOR OBF OBT PRE prince Ventrue:3
*** Conditional +bleed for everyone else in the crypt, but I rarely have more
than 2 vampires out. His inclusion is a bit questionable to me at this point.

2x Quentin 9 AUS DOM FOR cel obt bishop !Ventrue:2
*** I've considered adding more of Quentin since voting is one of the weaknesses
of the deck (Faerie Wards only usable on [D] actions). His ability to cancel
votes has been critical several games.

2x Gratiano 8 DOM OBT obf pot priscus Lasombra:2
*** He's just good for this deck in every way.

1x Beatrice L'Angou 5 MYT aus dom nec Kiasyd:2
*** probably should change her to someone more useful.

Library [80 cards]
------------------------------------------------------------
Action [5]
4x Eternal Vigilance
1x Goblinism
*** Both actions are just awesome for the deck. Depending on the table, I used
Goblinism to either get Papillion or Secure Haven most often. There should also
probably be some Govern's in this deck to utilize all the wonderful superior
dominate, but for some reason that always scares people.

Action Modifier [16]
2x Blanket of Night
3x Foreshadowing Destruction
2x Shadow Play
5x Shroud of Absence
4x Stone Travel

Ally [3]
1x Impundulu
1x Mylan Horseed (Goblin)
1x Young Bloods
*** Mylan can either bleed or be another way to keep the Marconius-machine
untapped and running. The other two are there to try and ensure that my prey is
losing maximum pool to Smiling Jack in the endgame, but can also be helpful
keeping a predator in a hunt-loop.

Equipment [1]
1x Heart of Nizchetus
*** Always nice for a deck that likes to sit around and wait for opportunities.

Event [1]
1x Scourge of the Enochians
*** Huge against breeder decks and other weenies.

Master [23]
6x Ashur Tablets
*** Virtually ensures I will never run out of Faerie Wards, offers pool gain,
and the ability to retrieve early discards - can't say enough good about them.

1x Auspex
2x Fortitude
1x Giant's Blood
1x Lilith's Blessing
1x Papillon
1x Powerbase: Madrid
1x Rack, The
1x Secure Haven
2x Smiling Jack, The Anarch
4x Villein
3x Wider View

Political Action [4]
4x Banishment
*** Most recent addition to the deck in an attempt to keep my prey from running
away from me; excellent synergy with making Marconius older anyway and often
times this deck just happens to be the political power at a table.

Reaction [25]
15x Faerie Wards
*** To test whether this card was worth playing, I wanted to ensure I always had
a few in hand. It might be a bit much, but the card is so very good when only
paying 1 blood. It is also nice to be able to play it at basic [myt] on a
bounced bleed to keep the pressure on my predator.

3x Obedience
*** Critical when blocking 0-stealth actions with Eternal Vigilance.

3x On the Qui Vive
4x Wake with Evening's Freshness

*** Probably should include a few Deflections in the deck, but the idea was to
really try and abuse Faerie Wards. I may try to drop 2-3 in the future and
replace them with Deflection.

Reaction/Action Modifier [1]
1x Aura Absorption

Aleksi Nuora's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Toreador Power Bleed
Author : Aleksi Nuora
Description : Use Enkidu for block denial and defense, monster 
bleed with Andre, other weenies and the Codex once the coast is 
clear. The combat module is based on the theory that if you have 
enough Psyche! and Pursuit you can just dump combat cards until 
you run into an Earth Meld and another rush card.

Casual observations:
the longest game I played in the tournament lasted for about 1h 15min
I still managed to deplete my library in every single game

Based on Marko Lindroos dect (which was based on Erik Torstensson's Punmatra Lutzonance deck)
- minus bleed ( because there are to many deflections in play these days)
+ plus more Villen's and Lilith's Blessing's because free Malkavians 
are better than with cost (and V&L; is a must in fatty deck's...)

Robert Scythe's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Faerie Guardian
Created by: Robert Scythe

Description: I've always disliked Archon Investigation because,
though it takes a big bleeder off you, it hurts my predator too much
(unless he's just a heavy stealth bleeder) and Faerie Wards does
exactly what I like, stopping the bleeds and holding them down. Also
great for all other D actions. Shroud of Absence and Stone Travel help
to not need any combat at all, though I suppose a couple of Majesty's
could help but it was cool like this. Trick is to have Marconius
become the biggest vampire on the table, too bad he doesn't come with
protean.

John Bell's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Ishtarri No Ayo
Author : John Bell
Description : Most of the decks I've seen with the Ishtarri 
revolve around Ayo and voting, I wanted to go a different 
angle with this deck. The original concept was to have multiple 
informants out so that I could have an idea of what everyone 
held in their hand. It was built as a combat/wall deck and 
spends a lot of time sitting around trying to build up. 
The No Secrets can often get burned, but isn't a disaster 
since there are more to be had.

John Bell's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Sudden Reversal Monstrosity
Author : John Bell
Description :
Probably one of more vicious and aggressive decks I have built. 
The idea is denying opponents key resources in the form of their 
Masters. The obvious choices are prey's pool gain and predator's 
offensive cards, but it becomes more difficult to decide what 
permanents to allow in play across table. The stealth-bleed module 
works quite well without a single master, but the deck funcitons 
under the assumption that many decks are crippled without their 
master phases.The deck physically can not bleed for greater than 
3, which means I have no worries for Archon Investigation and 
bounce isn't as crippling as when a bleed of 6 is redirected. 
The pool generation in the deck mostly comes from Kindred Spirits, 
ousting my prey, or The Call in a pinch.

Deck name: Para Bailar la Bamba
Author: Riccardo "il Male" Fabiani
Description: A breed and vote deck with Bamba and Amaravati, 
taking advantage of a good laibon spread into the Assamite clan. 
The main idea is to breed enough Bambas, bleed occasionally to 
charge Alamut, bloat with Haquim's Law and Boon, then go for the 
killing with Khabar: Community and Veil the Leigion for bleed and 
big votes like Reckless

Christian Nislev's Tournament Winning Deck with 3 VPs in the Final

Deck name: A Twist of Madness
Author: Christian Nislev 
(all credit goes to to Ben Peal and Keith Page of course...)

Description: The classic Henry Taylor-twister deck where Henry ends up
blocking everything and ousting with Smiling Jack. I felt the deck was
a bit too passive, so added Clan Impersonation and Madness Network
which allows for some serious end game bleed punch with Anima
Gathering and Earth Control stealth. Bleeding at the end of your
predator's turn gives you the edge and a pool which pays for Jack. 31
cards is too much, but there's some nifty mechanics that adds
flexibility to the classic deck.

John Bell's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : We Are the Land
Author : John Bell
Description : A breed-and-boon deck which revolves around Guruhi Are 
the Land: a free, versatile card which can provide situational untap, 
extra blood when hunting, or +bleed. Dream World was ridiculously good, 
but in two games getting No Secrets with the Kevlar Vest was the 
game-breaker. For a future build, I would be tempted to include more 
vests and No Secrets after the success it brought me, but the original 
intent was for that to be a side feature of the deck.  
[2 GW + 8 VPs headed into the finals]

Vote and bleed down prey, and reassign pool via Parity Shifts to keep
others from being ousted; bounce with Deflections and reduce combat

Grapples and heavy combat, but tends to keep things interesting, as
passing votes is rarely a problem.

Tiago Brum's Tournament Winning Deck

Deckname: Better Gentlemen, Same Sticks
Played by: Tiago Brum
Description: After the EC in 2009 I thought about the decks that
impressed me the most and Hugh's Gentlemen with Sticks was one of
them. At the time Grinders weren't all that known in Portugal.
Being the fan of Ventrue that I am, I thought the KoT vampires would
bring advantages that the Sabbat vampires don't have, like 2nd
Tradition, inherent votes for defense and other goodies.
Played with deck in tournaments for a year and went to every Final
with it. Except the EC :(

Created By: Ivan Marin-Rivas
Description: First combat is to cycle in to necessary cards, both in
graveyard and in hand.  After that play Ashurs and recycle the necessary 
cards back into library and deck.  Always keep in mind the amount of 
ashurs in the deck so that you don't choke on masters.

Soulscan for Agaitas if needed for added flavor and utility.

John Bell's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Fairies Wear Boots
Author : John Bell
Description : This deck is definitely more along the "toolbox" style
than prefer to run but I wanted to try something a little different.
The two votes are there mainly for vote protection, but can also allow
me to play Eternal Vigilance if the stars properly align. The

Kevin Mullen's Tournament Winning Deck with 5 VPs in the Finals

Deck Name : All You Need Is Oust
Author : Kevin Mullen
Description :
The deck is straight forward offense. The only action in the deck that
doesn't have any offensive potential is Carlton Van Wyck which I threw
in last minute. Get out 2 vampires and try to bleed, vote and recruit
with them each turn. The first action is usually the most important
and has the Uncontrolled Impulse to push it through. Majesty and
change of target gets through and defenders until you can get your
actions through. Decent pool gain to slow down your predator. If you
are in a really bad spot, bloat and vote upstream. Don't bother
leaving any vampires for blocking unless you don't have any actions
left, or you are looking at static intercept combat with no modifiers
to push your actions through.

Martin Major's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name:   mINIMAL sTYLE
Created By:  Martin "Mephistopeheles" Major

Description:
Fast and aggressive rush combat. Make 1st vp asap and decide who to
stay 1 on 1 with. Follow the basic combat doctrine to backrush first
and then play without a predator.

/could need more copies of Animalism skill card. Fear of Mekhet was a
metagame choice and burned a Legendary Unmada. Wider View never showed
up when needed. Frontal Assault is pure gold!/

Reaction (8 cards)
  2  Cats' Guidance

  4  Target Vitals

completed Ashur Cycle in the midgame. Awesome bonus to your ousting power/

good in the deck, and additional bleeding would be good.

The main strategy of the deck is to get the best use out of
Hannibal(A)'s untap ability to act twice on my own turn, then be able
to untap later for defense if needed.  There is a clear vote strategy
in the deck, but I also put in a good amount of toolbox.

Mark Loughman's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Chameleon Snakes
Author : Mark Loughman
Description : Credit where credit is due. I had built a Chamelon module 
into a Ayo-Anarch deck a while back, and as such was familiar with the 
mechanics of it, but Matt Wedge took it to a new level. He proposed a 
mono-Snake deck accelerated by Eternals of Sirius. I've spent the last 
8 months learning to build and play 60 card decks, more in the style of 
Jay. I went Group 4 for this, because Nakhthorheb's inherent multi-acting 
is so strong. Thanks also to Darby for some tweaks in the Master mix. I
would probably delete one of the support snakes in favor of a second
Cagliostro...synergy between him and Nak is huge.

Ben Peal's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Kiasyd Fastball
Created By: Ben Peal
Description:
Just wind up and throw the high cheese!  Gremlins and Bonding for 3
bleed at 2 stealth.  Nocturns to get in the way of rushers.  Sudden
Reversals to shut down Villein and other shenanigans.  It probably
wants a couple more On the Qui Vive (instead of a couple Wakes) and
Delaying Tactics (instead of a couple Deflections).  Foreshadowing
Destruction should probably be another Song of Pan.  Scourge of the
Enochians should probably go in there, and perhaps The Uncoiling.

Otso Saariluoma's Tournament Winning Deck with 3 VPs in the Finals

Deck Name: AD&D; (Advanced Derange & Dementia)
Author: Otso Saariluoma

Description: The same deck I played before, this time with slight
alterations, as I found Unmada too important to miss in the opening
crypt. Temptation of Greater Power was actually an excellent addition.
If you want to use the combo in every single game (which I didn't),
I'd suggest playing more copies of the key cards: Derange, Dementia and
Enkil Cog.

Deck Name : Tryphosa Stealth/Defense
Author : Erol Hammer
Description : The inherit (but sometimes costly) +1 Stealth for all
bleed actions via Tryphosa, allows you to have less stealth cards and
more space for heavy defense module. It allows you to block your preys
poolgaining actions and tapping him out in the process. So bleeding
and gaining pool via bleeding is teh way to win. Deck has a hard time
to sweep, but stays alive long enough to make the table.

Description :  A very straight forward Settite stealth/bleed deck

netted me VPs, it was Mokole Blood.

Izaak Havelaar's Tournament Winning Deck with 3 VPs in the Finals

Deck Name: The new A
Created By: Izaak Havelaar

Classic Triple A concept enhanced with the new big A, Ashur Tablets.

The only change I would make in this deck is to add an Anarchist Uprising 
and an Archon (look, more A's!) and cut out a Perpetual Care and a Psyche. 
I had not realized Alastor doesn't allow you to rush allies and that was 
mighty annoying in two of the four games.

The two cards that got my the win today were Metro Underground (having 
an untapped Assault Rifle is *huge*) and the Entrancement, that I could 
play unblockable in the finals to steal a Nephandus, bring it back to 
my hand with Ashur's the next turn and steal another Nephandus.

Mike Courtois' Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Mistress Fanchion doesn't have a Heart!
Created By: Matt Wedge & Michael Courtois
Description:  The deck SHOULD have a Heart of Cheating but it was in
another deck and I forgot to add it before the tourney. Mistress must
get a Rutor's Hand first thing, then Alastor, then Helicopter, then
Magic the Ankara Citadel. From there, there is enough in the deck to go in 
and look for the answer that is needed to attack or defend the game state. 
Orlando is always your second minion to help grab the political reins at 
the table. If all goes well, you'll be the last one standing.

Robert Scythe's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: The Quick and the Dead
Created By: Robert Scythe
Description: Infernal Pursuits, Aura Readings and the Barrens to get
your guns on, Ashurs to get back all those necessary discards. In the
tournament I drew the Barrens in my opening hand all three games, too
good. All the Forceds would be Eyes if I owned that many, though I did
use a Forced on a Mind Raped, Pulsed Kallista with only one blood to
fail a block. There's usually another Quicken, 2 DI's and another
intercept location (really missed the DI's). This really wants at
least 1 Aire even if Marcellus cannot use it, and he needs to be the
main. Rather have a Jake than the Hunting Grounds.

Darby Keeney's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : [2010 TW] The World's Biggest Small Multirushers
Author : Darby Keeney

Comments:  Many thanks to Fred Scott for lending me 2 Tupdogs for this
tournament.   Generally, I have found a 2.5:1 Tupdog-to-!Tremere ratio
to work out pretty well, though a long string of Dogs at the top pf
one's crypt is frustrating.

The objective for this deck is to get additional mileage from the
Tupdogs...decreasing their effective cost from 1 pool per action to
0.5 pool per action and further leveraging both the rush and the slave
option (rush first, untap, available for slave clause, take an action
of the slave clause is not needed).

The deck is supposed to carry 1 more Ashur Tablet, but I seem to own
only 5 at this time.  4, 6 or 7 seem like the right numbers to me,
depending on your risk tolerance and recycling needs.

Synergies:
Carver's + Dragonbound and Carver's + Vessel are pretty clear.
Carver's + Raw Recruit is an indefinate hold on a Recruit target (that
could not be Graverobbed).  Carver's not affecting Tupdogs is a bonus.

Heidleburg can save master vampires from dangerous hunting
requirements, can empty a Tupdog of before it explodes and allows 2
Hand of Conrad actions per turn.

Deck Name: Suddenly - vampires and faeries, oh my!
Author: John Best
Description:
Kiasyd s/b deck. It needs to be slow played at the beginning,
governing down. Stone travel is an amazing card, if you fail to
stealth past a blocker, you don't need to worry about getting your
face ripped off. Fae contortion + oubliette to cancel a grapple and
S:CE saved me twice on the day.  Most useful vamp of the deck is 
definitely Arcadian, his special is invaluable.

A few comments on the deck:
Turns out the events were mostly useless, destroying my handsize. The
only time someone played the Uncoiling, I was glad to see it!
First time i try heart of Nizchetus: disapointing, i would have
prefered a tarot or another trinket...
Archon investigation was, once again, completely useless - being a
dead card for all the time i ever had it in hand.
Probably too many things going on in this deck, jammed a lot. Need to
cut down to 60-66 cards, notably the events, some masters and still
not convinced about the Eldest are kholo vote mechanism...

Alfred Behrends Tournament Winning Deck

1GW5 before final (3rd seed), 1,5vp in final

Deck Name : Govern the Gates
Author : Alf Behrends
Description : IMHO G4/5 has an insanely good weenie to midcap crypt 
for POT and DOM/POT. Inspired by Tuomas Nyberg's TWD "Dr. Sutphens 
Dental Care" I used the new crypt, replaced Computer Hackings with 
Govern and some cards for my personal taste. Didn't get to play the 
deck before the qualifier and really only wanted to qualify, so I'm 
very pleased with it's performance. Never used the whole library so 
should probably go down to 80 or even 75 cards.

// The Dutch meta has been loaded with allies for a while so I figured
Entrancement would be a safe bet. As it turned out, I didn’t see a
single ally and mostly discarded them. 23 Undue Influence was a tad

intercept than as bounce and it did its job perfectly. Two or so more
wakes wouldn’t be bad though, as I usually had to fully tap out
playing Undue Influence to keep pressure on my preys and get enough
“transfers” to be able to user my regular transfers to move crypt
cards to the uncontrolled region //

Deck scored 3 GW 9.5 VP in preliminary rounds and 1.5 VP in the

John Bell's Tournament Winning Deck with 2.5 VPs in the finals

Deck Name : Putting "The Dominate" in Indominatability
Author : John Bell
Description :
I played a similar deck a number of years ago at Origins. That deck revolved 
more around the combat aspect itself, using Animalism for Drawing Out the Beast. 
Camera Phone seems to be my new favorite card and I keep wanting to put them 
in most of my decks.

The deck was definitely supposed to have 2 Graverobbing. It's a huge mistake, 
since that was the inspiration for me to change the deck in the first place. 
I'd probably drop a Superior Mettle and a Rapid Healing for them.

John Eno's Tournament Winning Deck with 4 VPs in the finals

Deck Name : Lawyers, Guns and Money
Author : John Eno
Description :
This is my attempt to make a Ventrue version of the !Ventrue
intercept/combat deck I've been playing, because the new law firm has
such an excellent crypt. Most of the card choices here seem pretty
obvious, but I'll attempt some Morganesque deck commentary for those
that might seem odd or should be changed.

Crypt [12 vampires] Capacity min: 3 max: 10 average: 6.91667
------------------------------------------------------------
2x Mary Anne Blaire  10 AUS DOM FOR PRE ani pot  justicar Ventrue:5

--In theory, she's great for this deck. In practice, I think she's
probably too big and should be changed into another Graham and a
smaller vampire. Emily Carson would be a good choice.

3x Lodin (Olaf Holte)  8  DOM FOR PRE aus pro      prince   Ventrue:5
2x Graham Gottesman    7  DOM FOR obf pre tha      prince   Ventrue:5

------------------------------------------------------------
Master [14]
 2x Anarch Troublemaker
 4x Blood Doll
 1x Ephor
 1x Island of Yiaros

--I really want his card to be good, and this would seem to be the
deck for it to shine. I don't think I've ever actually played it in
the year or so that I've been working on this deck, though, so that's
probably a pretty good sign that it could be usefully replaced.

 1x KRCG News Radio
 1x Papillon
 1x Pentex(TM) Subversion
 1x Smiling Jack, The Anarch
 1x Ventrue Headquarters
 1x WMRH Talk Radio

--Absolutely no idea why there isn't a Giant's Blood in here,
particularly since I put that card into just about every deck I make.
The Island will definitely be changed out for one in the future.

Action [9]
 1x Aranthebes, The Immortal
 5x Govern the Unaligned
 3x Scouting Mission

--The idea here was that using Scouting Mission over more Governs
would save me blood. In practice, they should all be Governs.

Action Modifier [6]
 1x Foreshadowing Destruction
 4x Freak Drive
 1x Threats

--This needs more bleed punch, and the free cards can probably be
safely changed into Conditioning without worrying about its blood
cost. During the tournament, I kept wondering why I was drawing so few
bleed modifiers. More evidence that you should be very familiar with a
deck before you play it in a rated event...

Ally [1]
 1x Carlton Van Wyk (Hunter)

Combat [25]
 4x Hidden Strength
 3x Indomitability
 5x Resilience
 4x Rolling with the Punches
 2x Taste of Vitae
 2x Unflinching Persistence
 5x Weighted Walking Stick

--Too much damage prevention. During all four games of the tournament,
there were times when I found myself looking at three or four combat
cards and wishing that they were anything else. Matt Hirsch took a
great picture of my hand during round three, in which you see six
damage prevention cards and a Walking Stick. Ouch. Some of this will
be taken out for more bleed mods.

Equipment [4]
 1x Bowl of Convergence

--If Mary Anne doesn't appear in the crypt any more, this card
obviously needs to be changed into a Sport Bike.

 1x Palatial Estate

--I still haven't figured out if Palatial Estate is ever worth the
action or card slot. I think math is against me on this one, but I'll
leave it here until I can decide definitively.

 2x Sawed-Off Shotgun

--People will probably mock me for the Shotguns again, but they've
never done wrong by me.

Political Action [2]
 2x Banishment

--Another "in theory this is great" card, particularly for lockdown
during the two-player game. Probably one or both should be more
straightforward offensive votes like Anarchist Uprising or KRC.

Reaction [18]
 8x Deflection
 2x On the Qui Vive
 8x Second Tradition: Domain

--Enough wake tech to make Peal grumpy during the finals when he was
trying to oust me, so it must be just the right amount.

 1x Mr. Winthrop

Jesse Cross-Nickerson's Tournament Winning Deck with 3 VPs in the finals

Deck Name: Facebook Stalker
Author: Jesse Cross-Nickerson

Crypt (12 vampires) Capacity min: 4 max: 9 average: 6.83333

5x Casino Reeds           9  ANI OBF POT cel dem  prince Nosferatu:3
2x Nikolaus Vermeulen     7  POT ani for obf      prince Nosferatu:2

1x Jimmy Dunn             4  CEL POT for                 Pander:2

A fairly self-explanatory crypt. My primary concern was to get POT on everybody 
so that they can fling superior gates. Calebros is the one exception, but he is 
well worth it for ANI and a prince title.

Library (90 cards)
------------------------------------------------------------
Action (4)
  1x Army of Rats
  2x Deep Song
  1x SchreckNET

I've never been able to tap SchreckNET, but it's an easy action to cycle. 
Some day, I'll probably get to use it.

Action Modifier/Combat (5)
  5x Swallowed by the Night

These are often very useful as stealth for early game set up actions,
especially Casino's 0 stealth action to move blood. Given how often I 
use them at basic, it might be wise to swap a couple for Lost in Crowds.

Combat (36)
  2x Canine Horde
  7x Carrion Crows
  2x Flash
  2x Flesh Bond
  6x Pack Alpha
  2x Target Vitals
  2x Taste of Vitae
  13x Thrown Gate

The beauty of this combat package is its consistency, coupled with the ability 
to surprisingly divert from the playbook. I have been able to shut down some 
very nasty combat decks simply by always having a gate to manuever and do some 
damage, and then by surprisingly ending combat or dodging (there used to be some 
Behind You, and it could go back in) when I got caught in a bind. Flesh Bond 
is great for its flexibility, as it deals 3R damage with Casino's special.


Equipment (2)
  2x Camera Phone

These tend to go on the support minions, not on Casino. They really help 
get the oust in once I've crippled my prey's minions

Master (14)
  4x Blood Doll
  1x Fame
  1x Giant's Blood
  4x Haven Uncovered
  1x Pentex(TM) Subversion
  1x Rack, The
  1x Smiling Jack, The Anarch
  1x Sudden Reversal

A previous version of this deck, which got me to a final at Origins, 
spent a total of 0 pool on library card costs. I added a Pentex Subversion 
because it is awesome, and to contest should one land on Casino. (I would 
still prefer that it be banned.) Spending so little pool is a major part 
of what makes this deck work. Casino and Nikolaus both help get Nosferatu 
at reduced prices, and I never bring out more than 4 vampires. Usually I 
stick with 3, or even 2 under severe  pressure. I use the extra pool as a 
buffer because at some point in the game I need to tap out against my prey, 
and then wake several times to stop her recovery actions. A lot of wall deck 
players seem to imagine that they can do this and magically cycle into the 
right mix of combat and reactions. Usually that won't happen. However, by 
keeping my pool as high as possible, I can afford to take some serious hits 
from my predator while I turn my defense into offense.


Reaction (22)
  4x Cats' Guidance
  4x On the Qui Vive
  1x Rat's Warning
  6x Second Tradition: Domain
  7x Sense the Savage Way

I would certainly entertain the possibility of cutting some STSW 
for more 2nd Traditions.

  7x Raven Spy

Reyda Seddiki's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name:	Ahrimane Assault
Created By:	Reyda Seddiki
Description:	Toolbox ahrimane. Lots of untap. Lots of carrion, 
but no aid from bats ! The point is not to destroy the vampire you are
blocking, but merely being able to block a lot, and to survive the
ensuing fight. You are going to oust with Smiling jack anyway. Some
precise rush, mainly to maim the fame. Mark V is here to settle it
against other long range fighters.

Ricardo Marta's Tournament Winning Deck with 3 VPs in the finals.

Deck Name: Bitter and Sweet !Ventrue
Author: Ricardo Marta
Description:
This deck was conceived during my absence last September. I didn't
have had the time to assemble it or test it, but when i saw that 
Vicent Ripoll won the EC 2009 Day 1 tournament, i decided to give it
a try. You might consider this deck as a mix between Vicent Ripoll EC
TWD and Ruben Feldman's "Vignes" deck. I decided to play with auspex 
to explore Aura Reading. It was a surprise to all players and a
good advantage to me, because i was able to look at their hands and
bled irresponsibly. Future improvements, remove "Recruiting Party", 
change fortitude prevention.

Ira Fay's Tournament Winning Deck

Desk: Beasts on the plains, twirling their canes
Author: Ira Fay
Description: This desk is inspired by Hugh Angseesing's
deck (and others) of similar name.  I wanted to see if I
could make the fortitude combat + WWS work for Akunanse.
Since the bleed offense is obviously weaker without dom,
and because I wanted to use freak drive and have 2 useful
actions for each minion, I added votes, which worked
pretty well.  No Secrets is strong, but I was afraid of
Pentex, so I wanted to play a deck that had a reasonable
chance of getting out 2 Magaji.  Also, using the Matt
Morgan school of thought, I wanted to have some good
non-threatening building actions early-game, while my prey
weakens my grand-prey.  Wise Spider and Owl Companion are
great for that.  This deck has limited untaps, but
canceling bounces with Terra Incognita requires only one
untapped minion, which was pretty easy given Wise Spider
or influencing out a new minion.

Marcin Watras' Tournament Winning Deck with 3 VPs in the finals

Deck Name : Enkidu the Great
Author : warGrim
Description : Enter combat / block - torporize - burn with Nephandus.
Mages were magnificent in game 3 where they blocked several bum's
rushes / bleeds when I didn't have enough manouvers in my hand to
fight with Anson Cel/Gun deck.  In the late game it is great to 
have additional bleeders with 4 life and no minion in front of you :)
That deck would probably never survive a malk bleed deck.
That was supposed to be a fun deck but after several changes I would
find some potential there.

Timo Snellman's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Holiday Malkavians
Author : Timo ' xfactor' Snellman
Description :
I just arrived from my holiday and put this up fast. On our quite
heavy combat environment basic dementation bleed deck usually gets
devastated and that is why there is some combat in deck. Another thing
is that the vampires are just too big to be sacrificed on a spot.
After the first tournament played with this I can say that there isn't
enough stealth to go through good old fashioned wall deck. But there
is some bounces to wait for a moment to come. Also stopping some key
actions here and there proved to be valuable asset. Maybe couple of
block fails would do good. There certainly is room for improvement.

Jessie Ellison's Tournament Winning Deck with 3 VPs in the finals

Deck Name:   The Baobhan-sith, Kyasid bleed deck
Created By:  Jessie Ellison
Description: The idea behind this deck is of course primarily stealth
bleed, with a secondary function of trying to choose one's battles.
Chanjelin Ward and Redcap Wilder pose undesirable consequences to other
Methuselah's vampires, while Shadow Twin and Riddle Phantastique
effectively single out targets and attempt to make them weaker.  With
the powerful combat supplied by Mytherceria and Obtenebration, these
vampires can usually choose whether they want to strike hard or make a
quick getaway.  Archon Investigations were added to dissuade others
from trying big bleeds, and Centralized Background Checks to make the
dreaded Poker a little more expensive to get out. The strongest
vampire in this deck is, arguably, Marconius since he is the only one
to possess all three disciplines at superior as well as paying 1 less
blood for Mytherceria cards, but this deck really does not focus on
any one vampire in particular. Rather it focuses on getting as many
vampires out as possible, starting out rather slowly to create a wall
of Faerie mischief late in the game.

Martin Major's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name:   mINIMAL sTYLE
Created By:  Martin Major
Description: I wanted to build this deck the moment 
I've seen Nana Buruku on the white-wolf website 
(before the release). Since I didn't have the time 
and energy to trade for or the money to buy 15 deep 
songs, 9 ashurs and 4 target vitals it took me until 
now to get all the cards together (big thanks to 
Gyula Erdos who borrowed me 11 deep songs, 3 ashurs 
and 3 vitals). After playing some friendly games and 
this tournament I will replace two cards for another 
cats guidance and on the qui vive. Otherwise I am 
happy with all my choices. 

I made it to the finals with 1GW 3,5 VP-s as the fifth 
finalist. The seating in the finals was actually really 
cool for me. With some luck I made 1GW 4 Vps in the final.

Adam Esbjörnsson's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Tutte bjuder till fest
Created By: Adam Esbjörnsson
Description: The deck is best slow-played, not to show off too much
dominate to keep the table guessing at whether you play combat or
votes. Using mirror walk and obedience to never get into a combat you
don't want to enter. Just wait the game out and take the last two VPs
before anyone knows what's happening (at least that's the idea ^_^).
Works really well in a combat environment, would probably be weak
against vote decks with stealth - but thankfully I never had to face
that.

Hugh Angseesing's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: It's Pronounced "HUG-huh"
Created by: Matt Morgan

This was the only deck I could really put together for Ebony Kingdom
as I didn't have very many EK cards yet. It was meant to have 4
Quicken Sight, but I guess I accidentally put in an extra. 5 is too
many. The 5th should be Enhanced Senses or something. Also, some of
the cards in the deck (like Familial Bond) are junk, but I wanted to
try everything new. It was originally intended to have Aye, but they
didn't make the cut.

I played this untested in the US Championship and had a very
Goldilocks experience. The first table was too stealthy and I jammed
on combat. The second one was too fighty and I couldn't keep out of
torpor. The third table was just right and I won easily. Hugh
borrowed the deck for the Sunday tournament and made the final where
he won basically by being in the best shape after the table collapsed
(a fine way to win).

His only comment to me was the deck could use a couple of Camera
Phones. Probably a good plan.

Powerbase: Luanda is quite good. It's maybe the only thing here that
makes this deck something other than a poor Toreador gun deck without
the bleed potential.

Simon Reed's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck: I love the Tremere
Author: Simon Reed
Description:
This deck is all about being flexible and tooling up with whatever the
game situation dictates.  Constant pressure forward and bring out the
hordes of Tremere to overwhelm.  Seems to work pretty well most of the
time, could maybe do with another Muaziz for her extra stealth for
forward motion but her disciplines aren't great.

Deck based on concepts I saw from Barnaby Dromgool and refined using
Steve Harris' deck from last years LCQ in Melbourne.

Sebastian Meurer's Tournament Winning Deck with 4 vp in the finals

Deck Name: Cogwork Brussels
Author: Sebastian Meurer
Description: The deck is a Nosferatu multi-action toolbox with an
emphasis on bleeding. The foundation of the deck is Cock Robin's
special ability to untap after a successful action requiring
Animalism. Also Baron Dieudonne can untap after a successful action
(but only by paying a blood). Another untap possibility is provided by
Warsaw Station. With Tier of Souls, Deep Song and eventually Enkil Cog
the deck has considerable bleed potential. Thanks to Preternatural
Strength you only need to make room for few extra combat cards to be
very effective in combat, while being able to do “defensive rushing”
with Deep Song.
Maybe the deck's biggest advantage in a tournament is that other
players tend to underestimate its bleed potential and in general have
trouble assessing the deck's capabilities.

Chris Shorb's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name:   Lutz All Out
Created By:  chris shorb
Description: Lutz is a very good vampire.  Vote with Lutz, or bleed for 
3 with your IC's.  A sprinkling of combat and bounce.  Suffers vs 
dedicated combat or walls.  Should probably include a DI just for things 
like No Secrets.  The Force of Personalities are mostly for allies, 
although doubles as more SCE.  I only use the Aire with a non-IC, I'm 
very Archon Investigation averse... Ashurs are gold, and definitely won 
me the final, and probably helped me win at least one other game.

Orian "TTC" Gissler's Tournament Winning Deck with 4 vps in the finals

Deck Name:   Fear of the dard [A Marc Dorcel Production]
Created By:  TTC - http://ttcmaster.blogspot.com/
Description: Tweak from the famous "Fear of the dark" from Florian
Prosper, tournament finalist multiple times. The name comes from a
misspell from Florian, "dard" being a possible reference to manly
attributes in French, and Marc Dorcel is a famous porn movie producer.

The initial deck from Florian Prosper is 70 cards version and has been
finalist of, at least, and I am probably forgetting a lot of other
tournaments: last chance qualifier France 2008, FCQ Lyon 2009

Henrik Klippström's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck name: Who needs Deep Song?
Comment: I really enjoy playing this type of straightforward deck.
While others play complicated decks, whine alot and try to make weird
deals to win, this just ousts it´s prey. I took Tuomas Nybergs "Dr
Julius dental care" deck and switched potence for animalism (Gate for
Aid, Increased for Crows). I can only wonder how good the deck should
have been if I actually owned 14 Deep Song.

Mark Loughman's Tournament Winning Deck 3 VPs in the Finals

Deck Name : Traditional Princess
Author : Mark Loughman
Description : I re-tooled my Carna deck after KoT came out. 
Eyes of Argus is _SO_ efficient for this scheme that I was 
able to slide in a touch more combat (Rego Mortus). I also 
went to 4 Smiling Jacks. A first turn Jack means I don't have 
to worry about a time out at the table. Ponticulus is also very cool.

Jason Ryan's Tournament Winning Deck with 3 VP in the finals

Deck Name:   The Beautiful People
Created By:  Jason Ryan
Description: Very reslient deck, but not really capable of fast ousts.
Need to do something to speed it up. Giant's Blood was gold all day.
Obediences were gold. Sniper Rifles were useless in ANI heavy meta.
Ashur Tablets weren't great either - if I got them up early, I didn't
really need to recur anything, and if I got them late, the game was
already over. Would be better off replacing them with some funk
(Millicent, From a Sinking Ship, etc).

Iñaki Puigdollers' Tournament Winning Deck

Name: "Tupdog's Diary"
Builder and Player: Iñaki Puigdollers, inspired by "Sudario Diary"
Orian Gissler' s deck

Note: most people ask why do I play Tupdog here, there are plenty of
reasons indeed: permits me not to repeat vampires which grants better
crypt cycling, once on table they can recruit a generic ally (w/o fear
of being blocked and sent to torpor) before vanishing, they give you
specific rush defense, may play delaying tactics, and in the ash-heap
they may turn into wraiths once KD is full, .... though it' s a pity
they are non-unique.

After the Tournament I would only add a Vox Domini, maybe instead of
Giant' s Blood

Deck Name: Jacob's Pack
Author: Antti Tirilä
Description: Radoslaw Staszewski's recent deck from the news group.
Little tweaks here and there, especially taking more out of Jacob's
special. I never used Frontal Assault but it has potential. Loki's
Gifts fit nicely here as you'll be hunting after Tribute. The deck can
bleed pretty well but Fame and Dragonbound were essential lunge cards.
Dark Influences could be replaced by a couple of Direct Interventions
to cancel Entrancements and such. Two Garous and Ossian were stolen
from me during the finals...

Ira Fay's Tournament Winning Deck 

Deck Name: Team Africa
Author: Ira Fay
Description: Try to build up without looking like a huge threat, which
is tricky.  Decrypt even while you have unique vampires in the
uncontrolled region, especially if you don't have Lumumba or all 4
clans yet.  Cross-table oust if necessary to stablize the table.  Use
the Abombwe's on 4-caps, so you can get them up to 5 for Ancestor
Spirit, or a bigger voter cap.  Voter cap with Lumumba, since that's
the only vamp with PRE (if you get out 6 vamps, you have a ~76% chance
of getting Lumumba.)

Alex Ek's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Neo-Lawfirm
Author : _angst_ (Alex Ek)
Description : There are now 3 different lawfirm crypts and this one is
probably the weakest of the three. Something that makes people
underestimate the vampires you bring into play from time to time. The
deck is very versatile and features plenty of silver bullets which
helps you handle most situations you encounter.

Johannes Walch's Tournament Winning Deck with 4 vps in the finals

Deck Name: Johannes Commands the Legion
Created By: Johannes Walch
Description: Basic idea was to use Command the Legion in any deck. I 
made a G4/5 Ventrue, but was not too happy about it. Consulted the TWDA 
and found Otto´s G4/5 Ven, from where I borrowed a lot of ideas.

Crypt: (12 cards, Min: 18, Max: 39, Avg: 7,25)

2 Mary Anne Blaire 	ani pot AUS DOM FOR PRE	10 Ventrue

/* crypt was nice, opted to double johanne s, well because it is 
johannes. also i have victor, never drew him, though. most people have 
DOM which is good */

1 Pentex Subversion
1 Ventrue Headquarters
1 Monastery of Shadows
2 Vessel

/* not too many surprises here. monastery is cool, esp. when followed up 
with a parity shift. i have 6 trifles there, master section is light 
which is good because the deck cycles really fast */

Action (14 cards)
2 Scouting Mission
2 Command the Legion
3 Mind Rape
7 Govern the Unaligned

/* light on action cards since often your actions don´t suceed, rather 
have modifiers. mind rape are great doubling as defense and forward. 
command the legion is really good when you can pull it off, disabling 
blockers and deflecters and just freak drive afterwards */

Action Modifier (30 cards)
2 Perfect Paragon
1 Approximation of Loyalty
2 Voter Captivation
4 Bonding
2 Foreshadowing Destruction
4 Conditioning
6 Seduction
9 Freak Drive

/* just enough payload to get the VPs. didnt have any seductions at 
first, but this was very useful, just enough freak drives would have 
missed every single one. perfect paragon is pretty good, versatility is 
well worth the blood */

Political Action (10 cards)
4 Parity Shift
1 Ancilla Empowerment
1 Neonate Breach
1 Political Stranglehold

/* light vote package to justify the freak drives and much needed 
poolgain */

2 Obedience
5 Deflection

/* just enough to keep people guessing */

Combat (6 cards)
6 Majesty

Combo (4 cards)
2 Murmur of the False Will
2 Force of Personality

/* i was not sure at all about those cards, but both proved to be very 
effective. versatility really rules in this deck */

Ben Peal's Tournament Winning Deck with 3 vps in the finals

Deck Name: Humanoids From the Deep
Created By: Ben Peal
Description:
Humo or Gemini crank out Nocturns and Underbridge Strays.  Hannah
Montana and "We Like the Moon" Guedado get War Ghouls.  Use Agent of
Power to bump up disciplines (especially for getting superior Strays)
or to give a Tzimisce Obtenebration for fast Nocturn + War Ghoul
action.  Remember to use the presses from the Strays to help your War
Ghouls (I often used them to bail out of ANI combat).  Deploy Corrupt
Construction for lockdown.

Last table: Ventrue 4-5 Votes; Toreador Grand Ball 1-2; Tremere 3-4
Control rusher; Akunanse; Ventrue 4-5 weenie votes/bleeder.

When Tremere puts in play Mistress Fanchion and the Akunanse puts in
play Nkule and Ugadja, nobody can play votes without "bribes" (no the card). 
Akunanse plays No secrets, and the game was over for the Tremere and the 
Ventrue winnie. Ventrue 4-5 played his 2 Daring with the dawn, and after 
this, cannot pass any votes. With Conditioning can pass Toreador Grand Ball, 
and without opportunities, said "Ousted".

Akunanse's deck never lose a table.

Deck Name : Aim and Chain
Author : Vincent Ripoll aka Ankha
Description : An easy to play bruise'n'bleed deck. Get out the 5-caps,
Govern down on the small ones, you should quickly have 5 vamps out
with dom and for and plenty (about 20) pools left. Bleed steadily,
even for 1, and use the magic of the Target Vitals to maim the
blockers.
It resists quite well (surprisingly, but that's the magic of TV)
against real fight decks.
It entered the final at the third place and made GW4 during the final
between a palla embrace deck (predator) and a !Malk BS (prey).
There is an alternate crypt in group 4-5 but it uses higher caps and
is therefore too slow.

Deck Name: Circle of Madness
Created by: Milos Krstic
Description:Use Lutz and other IC to gain vote superiority, but don't
call politics to aggressively or you will get bashed, rather use
Lutz's text to damage your prey's pool and to keep him from helping
others vote if he has any votes and also if you're encountering wall
just let someone else's politics do your job.
Try to go combo bleed+true love's face+crock tongue+change of target
for max damage on your prey's minions.
Just play out slow and give everyone a chance to reduce their pool to
reasonable amounts before you start an offensive. Also calling
politics in predator's turn with Enkil Cog is nice:)

Hugh Angseesing's Winning Deck

     Author: Hugh Angseesing & Ze Germans
Description: Generally pretty strong - doesn't like too much

For some reason a DT has replaced a wash from the version used at
Origins. I have no idea why - I probably misplaced it somewhere.....

Christian Marinelli's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Foundation for the Win
Created By: Christian Marinelli
Description: It's pretty straightforward. You kine, you con boon and
you bleed until you win. You'd better be good at looking weak because
it's hard to say you're not a threat when you got 7 minions bleeding
for two and having a vote. The deck is based on a foundation deck I
found on the web, retooled without the gehenna cards to get less table
hate.

Matt Hirsch's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Lasombra Mamba 2008
Author : Matt Hirsch
Description :
This is a variant of the Lasombra obt/dom stealth/bleed deck that I've
been playing for years.  The primary function is stealth/bleed, but it
has a few non-stealth options like Anarch Troublemakers and
Seduction.  The biggest change I made for this particular variant was
going for group 3/4 instead of group 2/3.   The g3/4 crypt is
definitely weaker on votes but has a somewhat better selection of obt/
dom mid-caps.

Izaak Havelaar's Tournament Winning Deck with 3vp in the finals

Deck Name: The wall that is not really a wall
Created By: Izaak Havelaar

This deck originally started as mono Auspex deck with guns and Black 
Hand-tech for bloating purposes, but evolved into something that can 
actually oust players as well. The gameplan is to feign being a bleed 
deck that's not drawing into its payload while bloating enough to bring 
out a few minions and equip one or two Magnums. Once you feel you're 
pretty safe from your predator, start actively blocking your prey's 
minions with Eagle's Sight and bleed hard into him. Once you have 
secured a VP just bloat and block some more and be the last man 
standing for the 3 VP game win.

Taste of Vitae is vital to keep your bloat going and the Target Vitals 
act a nasty surprise that deters combat decks from picking a fight with 
you. It can also be used to knock out a weakened minion or put a rather 
painful dent into a War Ghoul or some other ally. Other than that it's 
really just a wall with a healthy amount of stealth bleed to go with it.

have more combat cards than stealth. */

Ally (6 cards)
 6  Nocturn

/* These were supposed to be cannon fodder but I dealt
differently with rush decks (in round 1 I gave Beast one hour to
go forward and get an oust before trying to oust its
controller. A deal that was worth it for both of us I think). But
they actually served as offence and in the final table Nocturns
finished both of my ousts in a single turn. */

/* Card flow was decent and I was quite happy with the balance
between modifiers and combat cards. The deck in itself isn't very
clever or anything, but 38 dominate cards seems to get the work
done. */

Darby Keeney's Tournament Winning Deck with 3 VPs in the finals

Deck Name : Weepy Bleed V4
Author : Darby Keeney
Description : Fairly straightforward, archetypical weenie [pre] bleed
with 4-cylinder crypt engine.

Not as defensive as tap-n-bleed Mind Numb [PRE] versions, but
significantly faster to the oust.

// Public Trust is pure gold here, frequently financing a 1-cap
vampire early in the game.

played.

// Momentum's Edge is a bit questionable, but a few extra pool never
hurts in the late game.

// Previous versions have toyed with Direct Intervention, which would
still be a fine inclusion.

Vamps (15) [avg=11]

Daring the Dawns x10
Force of Wills x10
Soul Gems x7
Majesty x3

Praxis Seizure: Geneva x4, Berlin x4, Cairo x2
Forgotten Labyrinth x5 (would add one more)
Elder Impersonation x3 (would exchange for Faceless Night x4
Seduction x2 (would delete)

Comments: Well the run is you get Arika out, wait a turn 
(hopefully no pentex, smash, or her getting torped), next 
you equip her with soul gem, Freak Drive to untap, then 
call Praxis S whatever to increase her capacity +1 and to 
make her prince of whatever, Awe it so you burn the blood 
off Arika down to 2, pass the vote with 22 votes for, now 
you are ready to bleed, force of will +2 bleed, daring the 
dawn to make it unblockable at inferior, conditioning for 
a bleed of 8, taking 3 agg damage burning Arika and a new 
ones comes into play. Play Praxis, Awe, Force of Will, 
Daring the Dawn, Conditioning bleed of 8, if you get stuck 
you can play distraction to not only get rid of the other 
soul gems and rubbish from your hand but to get back on 
track with the card combo. freak drive to then call PS

repeat until you have wiped everyone out

Deck Name: Lots of Babies
Author: Ira Fay

Description: It's a little tricky to acquire 30 Trophy: Progeny irl
(thanks gNat and Ian!), but once you get them, this deck can be fun to
play.  It reliably takes advantage of turns 1-3 master phases, which
are often wasted in most decks.  Miller's special is incredibly good -
he is so perfect for this deck, and Anson compliments him
beautifully.  My goal in designing this deck was to get a trophy deck
in the TWDA, and assuming I didn't make any stupid illegal deck
errors, I'm excited to post the first one.  Trophy: Progeny is very
powerful in such large numbers, especially because it can act that
same turn.  Choosing the right Red List target is tricky, because you
want something that you can burn, but other players can't.  Whenever
possible, choose a target that your prey controls.  Then, just sit
back and wait as long as possible, building the perfect combat hand,
holding the Palle Grande, playing 2-3 Trophies per turn.  Try to
convince the table that you're not a threat (much easier when the
Palla Grande is in your hand, and not on the table.)  If things are
flowing smoothly, you'll have 10+ Trophies on the table by turn ~8,
and then you can lunge when you're ready.  If you have a fast
predator, bring up Anson first because he can Deflect, Parity Shift,
and 2nd Trad to keep you in the game.  If you draw The Parthenon
early, you can consider bringing up Miller first.  Without The
Parthenon, you'll hand jam on Masters.  It's very rare that I discard
a Trophy: Progeny in this deck.  Golconda was very helpful to keep me
(or an ally) in the game long enough for the combo to go off.

Matt Morgan's Winning Deck with 2.5 VPs in the finals

==========================
  Deck Name: DoC bleed
 Created by: Matt Morgan
Description: The challenge I gave myself was to create a good
             Daughters of Cacophony deck that wasn't a copy of
             Ben Peal's NAC winning deck.  This one is mostly
             inspired by a deck of Forrest Nielsen's that won
             a qualifier back in 2003 and made the NAC final the
             same year.  It adds !Toreador for bleed defense and
            has a good chunk of combat defense.  I earned 2 GW and
           8 VPs in the preliminary rounds of the 2R+F tournament
          and 2.5 VPs in the final.  With another minute or two
         left on the clock, I would've ousted my last prey for
        a 3rd 4 VP win (but I'm plenty satisfied with just a win).

Crypt [12 vampires, average capacity: 5.08333]
1x Gael Pilet         FOR MEL chi pre    6  Daughter of Cacophony:2
2x Jost Werner        AUS PRE ani        6 !Toreador:2
2x Sheila Mezarin     AUS PRE cel for    6 !Toreador:2
1x Yseult             FOR MEL PRE        6  Daughter of Cacophony:3
2x Angela Preston     MEL PRE for        5  Daughter of Cacophony:2
1x Delilah Monroe     MEL for pre        4  Daughter of Cacophony:2
1x Maldavis           AUS for pre        4  Caitiff:3

1x Celeste            mel pre            3  Daughter of Cacophony:2

/* Never saw Gael or Remilliard, who are probably the weakest crypt
    choices here, so just as well.  A couple other players have
    insisted that this crypt needs Greta, but she wouldn't have
    really helped this time.  Sheila's +1 bleed and fortitude were
    just more useful.

Library [90 cards]

4x Anarch Troublemaker
5x Blood Doll
1x Dreams of the Sphinx
1x Fetish Club Hunting Ground
1x Palla Grande
1x Paris Opera House
1x Pentex(TM) Subversion
2x Presence

/* Strangely, the Anarch Troublemakers never were that important
   and I didn't draw them often.  Could use another Pentex and
   probably Direct Intervention.  The Presence masters didn't
   matter much since I mostly got out minions with PRE.

Action [18]
6x Enchant Kindred
4x Entrancement
4x Legal Manipulations
4x Social Charm

/* This seems like a lot, but I never discarded a bleed card and
   often ran out.  I probably had some chances to steal Hugh's
   Carlton in the final, but he was really doing me more good
   where he was, so I just bled with the Entrancements.

Action Modifier [14]
6x Aire of Elation
4x Missing Voice, The
4x Siren's Lure

/* More Siren's Lure is a no-brainer, but this is all I own.
   Oddly enough, most of my preys never tried to block me at
   all, so again it didn't matter this time.  Daring the Dawn
   could certainly go here.

Reaction [24]
1x Delaying Tactics
2x My Enemy's Enemy
3x On the Qui Vive
8x Telepathic Misdirection
4x Tourette's Voice
6x Wake with Evening's Freshness

/* Only one Delaying Tactics?  What was I thinking?  It totally
   saved me in round 1 and the final.  Another copy should
   certainly be here.  Tourette's Voice was completely useless
   and sadly misplayed a couple of times (sorry!).  I thought it
   might be good for saving grandpreys or for some unexpected
   intercept, but the need never arose.  Likewise, I think I
   bounced one bleed in the entire tournament.  That's something
   you just can't plan for.

Combat [18]
10x Majesty
8x Soak

/* This worked out great.  With all the other blood costs
   in the deck, playing a Soak against hands for 1 is completely
   worthwhile, which is mostly what I did with them.

Hugh Angseesing - tournament winner with 3 VPs in the finals

Hugh Angseesing's Winning Deck
==============================
  Deck Name: Dualism in America
     Author: Hugh Angseesing & Marko Lindroos
Description: Very flexible deck based upon Marko's Dualism deck.
             Main changes are reducing the dual forms by three
            as I was seeing far too much combat in the previous
           week's games. 2x Powerbase Barranquilla were also
           replaced for Chicago and a blood doll as I much prefer
          Chicago. Meant to change the crypt for more Malabranca's
         but never got around to it. Would then drop the Guarded
        Rubrics, as I never seem to draw it when I have Ondine anyway.

==============================
  Deck Name: Americano Mafiaoso

Description: Generally pretty strong - doesn't like too much

             and guns combo). Simple plan, get out Antonio
             and one of his support and build up for a bit
             then start moving forward. Ankara Citadel is very
             strong especially when Narrow Minds hits the table.

As I write this up I notice I have 88 cards instead of 90, and since I
was decked 2 of my 3 games I should probably address this! Blood
management can be an issue and getting off a well-timed Festivo 2 of
the 3 games was key. Mind Rape was less useful than I
anticipated...probably better off with Scouting Missions to increase
my crypt-machine mechanism early in the game. Deep Cover Agent is
handy when I remember to actually use it! Card flow is handled with
Heart and the 3 Dreams, but there were a couple of times I had to play
through some ugly clumping. A few more permanents are probably in
order, particularly Guarded Rubrics and a weapon or two.

Ancestor Spirit
10 May 2008
Cape Town, South Africa
10 Players
2R+F
 
The Winning Deck:
Deck Name : Klaus but no cigar
Author : Daniel Boud
Description :
Like most reactionary builds this deck is fairly slow moving. The idea
is to get the tag-team combo of Venere and Klaus out, block key
actions, grab a .44 and hole up until the table plays out. Once other
decks start losing their legs begin turning the screws with a few big
bleeds (Palla Grande/Aire of Elation), playing a Smiling Jack and
dropping a strategic Pentex Subversion. The lower cap vamps are there
purely for weenie support; playing the odd Art Scam and for the Palla
Grande bleed push.  As always, I over did the master card count. ;)
This deck won with 4 VPs in the final table and 6.5 VPs in the Prelim
rounds.

Marcin Szybkowski's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck name: Along comes the spider
Author: Marcin "Dude" Szybkowski
Description: This deck won the mini qualifier in Torun, a local
tournament in Warsaw, and managed to get into the final round during
the Polish ECQ.  it's a very solid deck against most archetypes, card 
flow is really impressive, and it does tend to be underestimated (not 
too often, but it happens).  it's also a very fun deck to play, in the 
ideal setup you block out your predator while making constant pressure 
on your prey.


Crypt - 12 [avg=6.33]

3 Nkule Galadima  	- magaji

1 Meno Ngari

Library - 90
----------------------------
Master
2 Dreams of the Sphinx
3 Vessel
2 Blood Doll
2 Direct Intervention (I'm thinking about adding another one, this
card is cruicial for any block denial actions, or things that simply
screw your spiders)
1 Giant's Blood
1 Jungle Hunting Ground
1 Powerbase: Tshwane (there was some magic around this card, I got it
in every single game, in the first 10 cards drawn)
1 WMRH Talk Radio (didn't use it at all, metagame wasn't stealth heavy
though)
1 Mbaare Market, Harare
1 Legendary Vampire
1 Ancestor Spirit

Action
3 No Secrets of the Magaji (was thinking about 4-5, but 3 is a good
number, you draw too much attention if you put it on too early)
3 Belonging Grants Protection
2 Restoration
1 Aranthebes, the Immortal
1 Army of Rats

Action modifier
7 Freak Drive
5 Predator's Transformation (wonderful card, can play it anytime, and
the bonus superior effect did help a lot many times)
4 Predator's Mastery (lovely thanks to several ally decks playing)
1 Akunanse Kholo
1 Strange Day (won me the final pretty much)

Political action
2 The Secret Must be Kept (amazing card against any ally deck)
1 anarchist uprising
1 ancilla empowement (nobody really expects these 2 until its too
late)

Equipment
2 Sniper Rifle
1 Ivory Bow
1 Reliquiary: Akunanse Remains
1 Kduva's Mask

Retainer
5 Raven spy
1 Shaman

Combat
5 Carrion Crows
5 Invoking the Beast
4Taste of Vitae
4 Rolling with the Punches
3 Skin of Steel
2 Canine horde (crucial in the final)
2 Flesh Bond (butt-saver)
2 Superior Mettle (I'd revise the prevent cards anyway, maybe adding
some with no cost, or more of SM. it worked nice in overall though)

Reaction
4 Predator's Communion (very helpful before you get no secrets, easy
to drop afterwards)

/* The larger vampires are obviously not meant to be influenced out and
    never were.  They might as well have been Enkidu, Hazimel, Sha-Ennu,
    Saulot, etc., but it never really mattered as I rarely had a mummy
    burned by losing all its life.  Two copies of Halim and 3x Effective
    Management meant I got him out in every preliminary round.  In the
    final he showed up late and ended up having to join the ranks of the
    mummies. */

Library [61 cards]
Master [14]
2x Blood Doll
1x Centralized Background Check
1x Channel 10
1x Charisma
3x Effective Management
1x Fame
1x Jake Washington (Hunter)
1x KRCG News Radio
1x Mob Connections
1x Opium Den
1x WMRH Talk Radio

/* The media outlets helped a lot.  I'm a firm believer in Unmasking +
    media locations in an ally deck.  It really gets the job done.
    Centralized Background Check was in my starting hand in the first two
    games, but I didn't see it in round 3 when I was killed by .44s.  Ah
    well.  It's good in theory. */

Action [11]
1x Set's Curse
10x Spell of Life

/* Set's Curse was originally Far Mastery, but more of my crypt can play
    Set's Curse and there are more available targets.  In round 1, I was a
    little slow with it and Meno Ngari got a skill card before I could hit
    him with it.  In round 2, I turned Lupo into a snake, which was really
    cool, even if it probably didn't cause me to win any more than I was
    already winning.  I died too quickly to make use of it in round 3, but
    turning one of Ben Peal's War Ghouls into a snake would've been pretty
    great.  There were small vampires that would've made good targets for
    this in the final, but sadly I had nobody with SER to play it, so it
    had to be discarded.

    10x Spell of Life was pretty good in a 61 card deck.  I normally got
    the Spell off around turn 7 or so, I think.  I never tried to get it to
    happen again and never needed it.  Each game concluded a turn or two
    after I completed the Spell (or in the case of round 3, the game
    concluded for me the turn before I would've completed it). */

Action Modifier [13]
2x Cloak the Gathering
2x Conditioning
1x Domain of Evernight
2x Faceless Night
2x Lost in Crowds
2x Spying Mission
2x Veil the Legions

Action Modifier/Combat [2]
2x Swallowed by the Night

/* Heavy intercept would've probably been a problem for me, but luckily
    there was none.  My first prey of the day was an Akunanse deck, but I
    managed to block it tooling up with intercept permanents.  Veils were
    good to add stealth to mummies (since I never had anyone with OBF for
    cloak).  Conditioning, just because I'd be crazy not to. */

Ally [8]
1x Amam the Devourer (Bane Mummy)
1x Carlton Van Wyk (Hunter)
1x Kherebutu (Bane Mummy)
1x Nephren-Ka
1x Ossian
1x Qetu the Evil Doer (Bane Mummy)
1x Tutu the Doubly Evil One (Bane Mummy)
1x Vagabond Mystic

/* Carlton made frequent appearances.  I had Ossian in round 2, but he
    really only served to cycle my prey's Swallowed by the Night maneuvers.
    I got Qetu out in the first round and actually successfully bled my
    prey twice, which I think is pretty good (she bleeds for 2).  An early
    Nephren-Ka probably gave me the final, because I rushed the dom/obf
    deck a lot to keep it from having the steam to oust me.  I sadly never
    had the pool to get Kherebutu or Tutu.  I'll have to keep playing the
    deck until I make good use of them.  Vagabond Mystic was the 61st card
    in this deck (originally designed at 60), but I never drew him. */

Event [3]
1x Dragonbound
1x FBI Special Affairs Division
1x Unmasking, The

/* I believe the only one of these I ever played was FBI Special Affairs
    Division, which was really useful when Carlton was blocking Matata at 1
    blood.  Matata couldn't take the risk of going to torpor and never
    coming back, so Carlton got away with dodging three or four times. */

Reaction [10]
5x Deflection
2x Delaying Tactics
3x On the Qui Vive

Mark's notes:
Into Thin Air did not impress me and will probably go back 
to being Domain of Evernight.  Going to the third Dreams meant 
the Lupine Assault was mostly useless.  6 Wash cards made 
Bleeding the Vine redundant.

Event Name: Founders of the Ebony Kingdom
Location: Pretoria (Tshwane), South Africa
April 6, 2008
Rounds: 3R+F
Number of Methuselahs: 20
 
This was our national constructed tournament event held at Upcon 2008. 
There was a good attendence at this tournament and the metagame was 
dominated by bruise-bleed decks. The final table was swept up by Victor, 
after some cunning tabletalk and strategic deal-breaking.
 
The final table looked like this:
Victor playing Sneak/Bleed protean dominate bleeding
Jacque playing Kiasyd Sneak/Bleed toolbox bleeding
Michael playing Tupdog and Friends rush deck bleeding
Jesse playing Setite are tempting and enticing deck bleeding
Alex Pardo playing Shambling Hordes deck
 
Deck Name : Victor's Deck of Dominate
Author : Victor Kemp
Description : Straight forward sneak and bleed deck with dominate 
and protean. The general lack of intercept at the tournament certainly 
helped this deck work, as well as Stanislava's repeat performances.

Description: Standard Ugly Princes.  Was preyed on by 
Jon Glas' Marcus Vitel & Hunters in 3 of the 4 rounds.  
I back ousted him in the 1st round, then was one of 
the victims of a sweep by them in the 2nd.
 
Is only able to stand up to Hunter Nega-Cept if both 
bounces, both DI's, and 7 of 8 2nd Trads are drawn in 
the 1st 40 cards.    If you'd like to draw a Bowl Of

I got the original idea from Matt Morgan (called Love Doctor), Florian 
"Blondin" Prosper did some heavy tweaking to it once I sent him the 
list. So mad props go out to these two (really awesome) players. I made 
some final adjustments on the morning before the tournament (normal) and 
it worked pretty well, having 2GW 7.5VP in the prelims and 1.5VP in the finals.

Matt Morgan's Tournament Winning Deck:

Deck Name: Howling Anarchs
Created by: Matt Morgan
Description: Continuing in my quest to with a tournament with 
every clan alphabetically, I had to put together an Ahrimanes 
deck.  I hadn't ever played them much and generally felt like 
they were a decent clan, but Howler always goes to torpor, so 
that's a pretty major liability.  I asked for some advice on 
the #vtes irc chat and eventually jhattara gave me the idea of 
playing your traditional blocking felines with some Anarch Revolts 
to speed the table up.  Great idea!  Still not having much experience
with Ahrmanes, I basically copied David Quinonero's famous deck 
and shoehorned some Anarch Revolts.  It turned out pretty well, 
if a little slow.  I won my first round by the skin of my teeth 
and had to settle for a 2-2 split in the 2nd as my prey sort of 
ran away with the table.  The deck was ideal for the more 
deliberately-played final and I won with 2.5 VPs.

Crypt [12 vampires, average capacity: 5.75]
4x Howler ANI PRE SPI obf  8 Ahrimane:2
2x Siamese, The PRE SPI ani pro  7 Ahrimane:2
1x Cynthia Ingold SPI ani for pre  6 Ahrimane:2
1x Nettie Hale ani cel pre pro spi  5 Ahrimane:2
1x Bobby Lemon ANI pro  4 Gangrel:3
1x Juanita Santiago ani pre spi  4 Ahrimane:2
1x Dani ani  2 Nosferatu antitribu:2
1x Gillian Krader ani dem  2 Pander:2

/* I decided to throw a couple small guys in, but in general 
they weren't super helpful.  The deck is basically Howler 
with maybe The Siamese or Cynthia filling in if Howler is 
unwilling or unable to perform her duties. */

Library [90 cards]
Master [19]
1x Anarch Free Press, The
/* Not free and doesn't provide a press.  Can we get some 
errata?  The one time I tried to play this it was Suddened. */
4x Anarch Revolt
1x Animalism
2x Direct Intervention
1x Fame
1x Giant's Blood
1x Guardian Angel
1x Rack, The
1x Seattle Committee
1x Smiling Jack, The Anarch
5x Vessel

/* The Anarch Revolts and Fame were responsible for both my 
game wins.  I think I nailed a couple Blood Dolls with Vessels, 
but I mostly included them over Blood Dolls because I was 
worried about master hand jam. */

Action [11]
1x Aranthebes, The Immortal
6x Enchant Kindred
4x Nose of the Hound

/* Didn't need Aranthebes because of a lack of weenie predators.  
I mostly played the Enchant Kindreds at inferior, so they might've 
been better bleed cards (Legal, Social, Entrancement?).  4x Nose 
of the Hound was pretty nice. */

Combat/Action Modifier [5]
5x Swiftness of the Stag

/* Okay, so I actually got my firsts ousts in the games I 
won by bleeding for 2 at 1 stealth, but I like to think the 
Anarch Revolts and Fame are what got me there.  These were 
pretty good for keeping things up close and personal with 
Flash Harrison. */

Equipment [1]
1x Flak Jacket

/* Never when I needed it.  Sigh.  Same with the Guardian Angel. */

Event [1]
1x Dragonbound

/* This was mostly only good for backousting Jesse when he 
wouldn't let Howler out of a Pentex. */

Reaction [22]
4x Cats' Guidance
4x Falcon's Eye
3x On the Qui Vive
3x Sense the Savage Way
8x Speak with Spirits

/* I nearly lost the first game because I just couldn't draw 
any untap or intercept and my prey was getting away with murder 
for it.  It's weird because this looks like plenty to me. */

Retainer [11]
6x Murder of Crows
1x Owl Companion
4x Raven Spy

/* The Murders are pretty good here in that they make up for 
the fact that the support crew have inferior Animalism (not 
too scary on its own) and let Howler save on blood by doing 
a good amount of damage from long range. */

Combat [20]
5x Aid from Bats
2x Canine Horde
3x Carrion Crows
8x Pack Alpha
2x Taste of Vitae

/* Pretty light combat package, especially since 8 of those 
cards don't actually do anything to hurt the opponent or 
protect my minion.  The deck obviously relies heavily on 
Howler's natural abilities and whatever permanents it can 
put together.  Some Leapfrog or Majesty or something might've 
been good, but I didn't feel like there was room for it 
and it was more important to be able to hurt opposing minions. */

Matt's comments on the final:

It didn't work the way it was intended to in the finals. In retrospect
I should have brought out Demdemeh instead of Wamukota as my second
vampire, but I thought his ability would be important for my retain
actions(it was never used). I never could get enough pool to bring
out Demdemeh afterwards. A herd of elephants would have greatly
increased my ousting ability.

It is nice to know that the deck can survive without all of the "A"
team in play.

Comments:
Midget would be much better as The Colonel or Evan Klein. I discarded 
the hunting ground during every game in which I saw it.  I drew Kite 
in every game, and his bonus intercept was so effective that I'd consider 
adding a second copy, or a copy of Anatole. (Actually, given how much 
I ended up paying for Midget in most of the games today, he might be 
usefully replaced by either of them.)

Name of Tournament: Plagues Of Egypt - Swarm
Date of Tournament: 5th January 2008
Location: Cape Town, South Africa
Number of Players: 10

Here is Adrianna's tournament winning deck:
 
Deck Name : Saulot the Puppeteer
Author : Adrianna Pinska
Description : The deck is fairly straight-forward. Take over your
prey's minions to bleed themselves out. Keep Saulot and your pool 
going with Renewed Vigors. On hindsight, the Heidelberg's were more 
useful than the use they were intended for (transferring blood from 
Renewed Vigors).

Tournament winning deck:

Deck Name: Imbued at Last
Author: Pedro Paulo "Pepê" de Sousa Mendes
Description: The deck's goal is to setup as fast as you can by
depleting your library and to use Unity/Anthelios to cycle back
whatever master you need the most at the time.

------------------------------------------------------------
Action [1]
  1x Aranthebes, The Immortal

Ally [3]
  1x Carlton Van Wyk (Hunter)
  1x Ossian
  1x Wendell Delburton (Hunter)

Conviction [14]
  4x React with Conviction
  5x Second Sight
  5x Strike with Conviction
-- It was enough. I never needed more than this.

Equipment [3]
  1x Crusader Sword, The
  1x Heart of Nizchetus
  1x Ivory Bow
-- Heart is no good when it shows up late, but this is a small price
to pay when compared to how good it is when I draw it early (it was
decisive in the final table).

Event [3]
  1x Anthelios, The Red Star
  1x Edge Explosion
  1x Unmasking, The
-- I only packed the extremely necessary events, so I wouldn't draw
any extra table hate, and was lucky enough to put all 3 in play in
every game. The decks runs wonderfully with those 3 on the table.

Master [25]
  2x Angel of Berlin
  1x Barrens, The
  1x Church of Vindicated Faith, The
  1x Direct Intervention - saved me a lot of times, unfortunately 
	    I couldn't pack more than one.
  1x Fortschritt Library
  6x Memories of Mortality
  1x Millicent Smith, Puritan Vampire Hunter - no comments needed.
  3x Parthenon, The
  1x Rötschreck
  4x Slaughterhouse, The - useful either to speed deck depletion 
	    or to trade for something useful under Anthelios.
  1x Smiling Jack, The Anarch - crucial contest in the final table.
  1x Tension in the Ranks
  1x Unity
  1x Wash - not as effective as I expected, but also not a hassle
	    because it's trifle.

Power [8]
  2x Champion
  2x Discern
  1x Rejuvenate
  3x Vigilance - I started to win a game when I had those three in play.

Reaction [3]
  3x Determine

Gines Quiñonero	sweeps the finals earning 5 VP with this tournament winning deck.

Deck Name:   Mad Dancers
Created By:  Damnans
Description: Bring out the highest capacity vampire in your uncontrolled 
region. Once he or she is in play, play Danse Macabre on him/her and have 
him/her perform two actions per turn (The Call & bleed, most of the time, 
or Revelations & bleed, etc.). Thus, you should be able to put a few 
vampires in play at a low cost and quickly. The rest is easy: bleed your 
preys to death :)

Deck Name : Champion is Weak
Author : Witness1 - John Newquist 
Description :
Daneel is correct - if a card is weak, I should stop playing it.
There should be one additional Flash Grenade in the deck - it's
entirely possible someone else from the event has it.

10 Players

Deck Name: Fuzzface
Created by: Matt Morgan
Description: This deck has solid offense but obviously should drop the
Dual Forms for more stealth/Freak/whatever.  Another take on the deck
might be to use Ogwon who has for/OBF/PRE and costs 1 less but also gives
you access to the Opium Den and some other good stuff like Enticement at
superior.

/* No real reason to use 13 vamps, but I couldn't decide which obf weenie
    not to use here.  Zubeida's conditional +1 bleed only came up once and
    it didn't matter.  Not much of an ability, if you ask me. */

1x Jake Washington (Hunter)

/* Note the Blood Dolls, not Vessels.  Vessels were all over the place in
    this tournament, but I'll swear by Blood Dolls in a deck like this. */

Action [16]
6x Dream World
5x Dual Form
4x Enchant Kindred
1x Entrancement

/* Another Entrancement or three would be good.  Never had an opportunity
    to play Enchant Kindred at superior so those should be more plentiful
    perhaps, or Social Charms.  Six Dream World seems a little low, but I
    didn't want to have them too early or the extent of the threat I
    represented would be too apparent.  It's a very powerful card. */

Action Modifier [30]
4x Cloak the Gathering
2x Elder Impersonation
4x Faceless Night
8x Freak Drive
4x Lost in Crowds
4x Spying Mission
4x Veil the Legions

Action Modifier/Combat [4]
4x Swallowed by the Night

/* This is kind of a middling amount of stealth in my book for a deck like
    this.  I think I would've had some trouble against heavy intercept
    because none of my actions are that damaging individually.  Spying
    Missions were mostly used for extra bleed.  No need to spy if I'm
    bleeding my grandprey for 1. */

Equipment [4]
4x Camera Phone

/* Great card.  Extremely useful in this deck. */

Event [2]
1x Narrow Minds
1x Uncoiling, The

/* I think I was the only person in the tournament running any events at
    all, so I didn't play The Uncoiling.  I played Narrow Minds in the
    final and it helped me some, but it probably didn't alter the outcome. 
*/

Reaction [12]
2x Confusion of the Eye
2x Delaying Tactics
2x On the Qui Vive
5x Truth in Ink
1x Wake with Evening's Freshness

/* Confusion of the Eye was only used on bleeds.  Truth in Ink worked out
    quite well.  I wasn't sure it would because I tend to take a sort of
    Murphy's Law view toward bleed reduction (4 reduction cards in your
    hand? your predator calls KRC!), but they seemed good and I had no
    trouble playing them on bleeds of more than 1. */

Retainer [2]
1x J. S. Simmons, Esq.
1x Tasha Morgan

Combat [4]
4x Form of Mist

/* Here's the other slightly embarrassing part of my deck.  Bleeding under
    Dream World and attempting to Form of Mist a blocker doesn't work. As
    soon as the block is successful, Dream World goes away.  All the same,
    I didn't mind having a few s:ce when the Shambling Hordes rushed me.
    In this case, Earth Meld would've been better, but I don't know if that
    would be generally true.  I had considered Unholy Penance as well, but
    decided that free s:ce, when available, should always be used. */

Winning deck:

Deck Name : Le fourbe et ses amis invisible
Author : Guillaume Lefebvre
Description :
L'objectif est simple, sortir les nocturnes, les utiliser comme
bloqueur ou bleeder, et bien sur stealth bleeder avec govern/
conditionning. Je n'ai pu tester le deck qu'une seule fois avant le
tournoi et des modification s'imposent. Ainsi, je remplacerais les
deux entombments par un path et un nocturne, je remplacerais les
charisma avec des perfectionnist et j'ajouterais 2 delaying tactic.
Il est à noter que ce deck se révèle particulièrement éfficace contre
les weenie potence et autres tupdogs de ce monde.

Number of Players: 10

Here is Daniel's winning deck:

Deck Name : Tribal Trouble
Author : Daniel Boud
Description : This is a fairly straight forward stealth vote deck using 
the Ishtarri plus a few friends. Ayo Igoli is team captain what with her 
obfuscate, farming* capability and exponential vote gain. Ousting power is 
supplied by KRC, farming courtesy of Voter Cap/Minion Tap and a few ‘in case’ 
extras thrown in (e.g. The Secret must be Kept for the Imbued factor).

*Note: In South Africa we use the term 'farm' instead of 'bloat'.

his was the deck Ankur Gupta won with at the "Lords of the Night is
Legal!" tournament in Indianapolis, Indiana.  There were 15 players
with 3 rounds and a Final. October 28, 2007

Deck Name:	Black Hand CEL
Created by:	Ankur Gupta
Description:	The deck is yet another testament to my love for Black
Hand, even
without using the neat new cards of wonderfulness for Black Hand.
This deck focuses on attrition using Zip Guns/Blur/Taste. Let's
be honest: Zip Guns are not the most wonderful weapon ever,
but the idea is to simply survive combat until the end game.
Then, maneuvers are extremely powerful, and selective torporing
will balance the table into a win. There is a subtle but
important blood denial strategy that I feel stays nicely under
the radar. Generally the tables were unaware of the danger
until it was too late. Thuggees, Vampiric Disease, Restricted
Vitae, Strained Vitae Supply, Vessel, and moderate combat all
work well together to present a solid package for that purpose.
My own worries are handled by Zip Guns (to avoid disease),
Weeping Stone, and Corporeal Reservoirs.

Special mention of Vampiric Disease: it was a key card to victory
in both the final and two rounds beforehand. I love Vessel; it
should have a big impact once people forget about vessel and
play more blood dolls again.

The deck definitely carries weaknesses against animalism combat
or bigger guns. You have to make sure that you handle these
decks by talking them off the table or targeting their weakness.
For larger guns, pool is often a problem. Hone in on that. For
decks with animalism, there is a limit to how many times they
can repeat their schtick. Focus on killing one guy at a time.
With +2/+3 intercept plus permanents, you should be able to
manage it. Your "defense" against combat ends is that no one
is hurting you. That's benefit enough. Eventually they will run
out and they will be low on blood to boot. And if you get that
Vampiric Disease. . . . .

I would totally cut the single Art of Memory for a Reunion Kamut.
I just couldn't find one at the time.

Winning deck with 4 VP in the finals:

deck name: pienempi paha(lainen) [lesser (d)evil]
author: Matti Palomäki
Third of the cards in the deck I never managed to play to any
beneficial effect, but in most games the combination of having very
aggressive grandpredator and a horde of guys on the table ended up
making the actual contents of my library largely irrelevant.

4VPs in the Finals

Deck Name: Angellore (Live In LA)
Created By: Ben Peal
Description:
This is a modified version of the deck I used to win the 2007 Origins
qualifier. I chose this version of breed-boon for the 2007 NAC (and
EC) because of its anti-ally capabilities, its combat defense, its
surprise lunge capability, and its strong vote lock/push. I dropped
the 2 Enchant Kindred in favor of more Entrancements and another
Direct Intervention. I changed a Consanguineous Boon into an
Autarkis Persecution and 2 Kine Resources Contested into 2
Conservative Agitations as a defense against Delaying Tactics. I
dropped the 2 Change of Target and the 1 Crusade: Philadelphia
since I wasn't getting much use out of them. In their place, I added
an event package of Absimiliard's Army, Break the Code, and The
Uncoiling. Absimiliard's Army isn't in there for the synergy with
Entrancement (though it's nice), but is instead intended as a defense
against rush combat. This paid off in Round 2 of the 2007 NAC,
when I had Norm Brown's Basilia deck as a predator. Again, Siren's
Lure is a devastating card. It can change a run of the mill "bleed
for 1 to get the edge" turn into an ousting lunge. To answer a
frequently-asked question, I don't use Ensemble because it's just
asking to be bounced, leaving me to spend the next turn hunting with
everyone.

----------------
This deck was designed to take advantage of the usual championship
day one desperation.  I was disappointed when I had no stealth/bleed 
predators in any of my preliminary rounds.  I was able to bounce
some large, stealthy bleeds in the final.  That allowed me to oust 
my first prey.  I then won a long, thought out, heads up duel against 
Pete Oh's triple A deck. Thanks to those who organized, played in, 
and judged this tournament.

In theory, this fat Pander deck taps people with various 
special abilities and Majesty's and supposedly does pool 
damage.  In practice, bounce is pretty good, especially 
with evasion bleed as predator (prelim round), and hanging 
around accidentally results in VPs (finals).

"This deck looks tame out of the gate and seemed to have 
it's trouble aganst my AUS intercept deck. But I stood 
corrected as I faced this menace in the final only to fall 
helplessly as his predator to the floor. I was amazing at 
the glorious victory he pulled out in the final seconds of 
the match to crush the Lasombra." - Mike Courtois

I built the deck to try out Mytherceria cards for my first time.
I liked the versatility of Fae Contortion and many of the others.
Those cards proved to be great.  The Darby dance works
especially well in this deck because of all my reaction cards.
Many thanks to Bob Joseph for running the event,
and to Darkwood Manor for hosting it.

Haditha Kasha
Location: Cape Town, South Africa
Number of Methuselahs: 14
Date of Event: 11 August 2007


Deck Name : The Slow Withering
Author : Roberta Crumplin
Description :
When I built this deck I had in mind something that could righteously 
stop vampires, that could interfere with their hunting in particular 
and with their actions generally. The intercept generated by Second 
Sight and by The Unmasking, coupled with Discern and Sport's Bike, 
is generally enough to really hamper a Methuselah’s plans. Add to that 
Determine and Champion and you really start to piss other players off. 
The trick is, though, to apply it all in such a fashion that you don't 
end up turning the whole table against you - crucial when you're trying 
to bring out a hefty ten event cards that restrict all other players on 
the table, except of course yourself, and those few other Imbued players 
out there. Once those event cards start hitting the table it is very hard 
for Methuselah’s to generate the same kind of staying power that an 
Imbued deck can muster. Add to that some bleed, and some fight, and 
the deck can pretty much wear down anything. It's not to say that the 
deck doesn't have it's weaknesses, or that it can't be taken down, it 
most certainly can, but they are weaknesses for other players to discover 
and, in my favour, of course, is the fact that the Imbued still remain 
relatively understudied by most.

 Couple notes,
 -Julius wants to prove himself to Wynn by defending the Pack and
diablerizing
 -Combat is based on enviromental damage, so allies and Memories of
Mortality won't be too big of a problem (also helps with dodgy and
maneuvering opponents)
 -Shadow of the Beast was replaced with Hawg since equipping with Hawg
provides +1 stealth and I don't need maneuvers in combat (Claws of the
Dead can give maneuver in dire help)
 -Pentex is for contest and ...well it's also a good card anyways

BloodBATH 2007: Fifth Tradition
Miniqualifier
Bath, United Kingdom
14th July 2007
17 players

Tournament winning deck

Deck Name : The Alchemists (aka. the octarine killing machine)
Author : Paul Reid-Bowen
Description :

This take on the Nephandi swarm bleed has evolved over a couple of
years (beginning in the pre-Antonio d'Erlette days with a Marino
Reymundo Vasquez, Giovanni,  Nephandi and Shambling Hordes version)
and progressing to the very focused current version.  It is quite
abusive against light and non-combat decks, pleasantly burning
Alexandra in the UKECQ with molotovs, and typically with these type of
decks kills with weight of numbers.  EtPK is an excellent oust
accelerator, particularly coupled with Computer Hacks, and the Life in
the City are essential for keeping vampires topped up due to the
attrition from deflects, blood dolls and EtPK.  Clearly the deck has
problems with focused combat, stealth-bleed and stealth-politics, but
does very well in a neutral environment.

Constructively, I forgot to add two delaying tactics at the Bloodbath
2007 tournament (although two more DIs might be better) and this deck
is becoming an increasingly risky strategy when faced with high levels
of Entrancement and Far Mastery.  Eight Molotovs is probably excessive
(six would be fine), an extra Deflect and On the Qui Vive would be
good replacements.  Concealed Flash Grenades and the Life in the City
are pure gold.  Some people prefer more Memories, but it hasn't proved
essential so far, particularly with the Flash Grenades; plus I seem to
keep forgetting to add a Vagabond Mystic.

Basically an effective and fun deck with fairly obvious weaknesses; it
is also strong against Imbued, having ousted them on three occasions
in the past, which can't be bad.

Ben Peal's Tournament Winning Deck with 4 VPs in the finals

Deck Name:   Cybelotron
Created By:  Ben Peal
Description:
This deck was originally based on Erik Torstensson's Summon the Serpent
deck, which won a tournament in Gothenburg, Sweden in 2005.  His deck
mixes in Settites, and includes Temptation and Form of Corruption.  The
deck is a blast to play, but I felt the need to strip it down to its core:
Cybele, Great Beast, and Golconda.  I took out the Serpentis actions,
replaced Vast Wealth with Magic of the Smith, added more stealth, dropped
some unneeded masters, dropped the Minion Taps down to 4, and increased
the Golcondas up to 4.  I put the deck on the back burner for a while, as
I was working on intercept walls, but I saw that Johannes Walch happened
to make the finals of the 2007 Dutch Qualifier with a Cybele + Great
Beast, so, emboldened by Johannes' succes, I figured I'd get back to work
on my own version. Johannes' addition of Antediluvian Awakening was pure
genius, so I included it in my version.

The operation of the deck is as follows: you put a skill card on Cybele,
who then plays Magic of the Smith to get the Soul Gem of Etrius, untaps
via Truth of a Thousand Lies, then plays Call the Great Beast (OBF PRE
SER). Cybele explodes, bringing out a brand new Cybele.  The Great Beast
bleeds, and the new Cybele bleeds with her special.  On the next turn, you
Golconda your Great Beast and play a skill card on the new Cybele.  Cybele
bleeds with her special, untaps via Truth of a Thousand Lies, then plays
Call the Great Beast, and the Great Beast and Cybele bleed again.  When
you can (when you need to), you Minion Tap the Great Beast or play
Redeem the Lost soul to cash in one of your blown up Cybeles.  You also
have some protection against Archon Investigation, as you're free to pump
up Cybele's bleeds due to the Soul Gem,  If they play AI, then they've
paid 3 and given you a new vampire who can now bleed for 3 more.

I think Johannes is right to have 3 Soul Gems in his deck instead of the 2
that my version and Erik's version use.  I nearly lost the finals due to
drawing both Soul Gems while sitting in between 2 intercept walls.  I also
think that Johannes is right to have 5 Golconda and 3 Minion Tap instead
of the 4 and 4 that I use, since you'd rather get rid of the Great Beast
and make a new one instead of Minion Tapping it and leaving it around.
Antediluvian Awakening is an amazing card for this deck, as it gives you
the ability to blow up Cybele when you need to, such as when Cybele is
sitting in torpor, or if Pentex Subversion is played on her.  Johannes'
version adds in some bleed cards -- Sense the Sin and True Love's Face --
as well as Ossian (he found the ability to rush to be helpful).  My
version stays focussed on the combo, and is stealthier.

Ben Peal's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name:   Angellore
Created By:  Ben Peal
Description:
This is yet another breed boon deck from me, inspired by a similar deck by
Wes Weston.  You've got Bastille Opera House and Conductor to pass Con
Boons and KRCs.  Note that Conductor is still effective while the vampire
is in torpor. Siren's Lure with Majesty and Soak to get actions to succeed
wound up being very effective.  It's a pain in the neck that Siren's Lure
is rare, but it's an outstanding card that really does get the job done.
The Entrancements were money for me, and the DIs were lifesavers.  It can
be a bit nerve-wracking playing without bounce, not to mention the looming
threat of Anarchist Uprising, but you're not spending a lot of pool on
minions, and you're gaining a lot from the Con Boons.

Tournament Winning Deck with 4 VPs in the final round

Deck Name: Darby Dance of the Seven Veils
Created by: D.J. Chagnon (Meej)
Description:

An adaptation of various Darby Dance decks, particularly John
Newquist's 12/17/06 Razorbat:Atlanta winner (at least, that was the
one that I saw a bunch of this tech in), modified to adapt to Boston's
heavy-intercept typical metagame - one-stealth actions just rarely cut
it, and 2 stealth sometimes isn't enough - by bolting in some OBF
vampires into the crypt for Cloaks, Veils, and some blood-doll bloat.
Also solves the problems of the classic Imbued vulnerability to
Smiling Jack, Reins of Power, Ancient Influence, etc., at the cost of
a little less reliability in the crypt, which bit me once badly in the
3rd round (all 4 vampires out of 5 crypt cards looked at).While I
can't claim credit for much of the deck-manipulating innovation, Luc
is just plain GOLD - the +3 hand-size action works great as an end-of-
the-turn action to set up your hand for next turn.  I think I'm going
to switch out Jeffrey Mullins for a second Luc.

                  blocked, but with the stealth I put him back in)
1 Vagabond Mystic (undecided; life was rarely an issue, except when 
                   a little healing wouldn't have mattered)

Equipment  (16)

South American Championship Qualifier
São Paulo, Brazil
June 17, 2007
40 players 

Deck Name:   Baratas'07 (In english: Roaches'07)
Created By:  David Magri da Silva - VEKN 619-0009
Description: Uses embraces to create a horde of weenies, gains tons of
pool with ConBoon + Foundation Exhibit and massive bleed with Palla
Grande.  The deck doesn't use disciplines, so he can use many
discipline hoser Gehenna cards.

This is a very effective deck, which already won many other
tournaments in Brazil. In fact, David has gained the alias The Roach
King, for it. In this tournament, he ended the final table with more
than 40 pool and something around 16 minions, but I remember another
one where he ended with more than 120 pool and more than 20 minions. A
deck to be feared.

description : This deck won the « Hand Contract », 23 players, Paris,
May 26th 2007. Since Imbued aren't popular, might as well draw table
hate with Events and see what happens. Irresponsible deflecting on
grandpredator is nice too. The « hasty, untested tweaks in the morning
» were the poison pill/vox domini, heart of nizchetus, forschritt
library, glancing blow and were definitely useful. Don't leave home

Friday Night Constructed
New York, New York
May 25, 2007
17 players
2R + F

Deck Name: Inspiring Innocents
Created by: Matt Morgan
Description: Get out a ton of Imbued and Strike with Conviction until 
everyone is ousted.  This deck is a real killer and surprisingly resilient 
as well.  I can't recall ever having been ousted while playing it, 
although sometimes the table falls in unfortunate ways (see game 1 above). 
Now that I've won a tournament with a basic Imbued deck like this, it's 
only weird tricks and hybrid decks from here on out.  I promise!

Crypt [12 imbued, average capacity: 4.09]
1x Earl "Shaka74" Deams                  jud mar vis 6 Imbued:4
1x Jennie "Cassie247" Orne           inn jud     vis 5 Imbued:4
2x Travis "Traveler72" Miller    def         mar     5 Imbued:4
1x Erick "Shophet125" Franco         inn jud         4 Imbued:4
1x Leaf "Potter116" Pankowski        inn         vis 4 Imbued:4
1x Maman Boumba                      inn     mar     4 Imbued:4
1x Paul "Sixofswords29" Morenton def             vis 4 Imbued:4
1x Xian "DziDzat155" Quan        def inn             4 Imbued:4
1x Beatrice "Oracle171" Tremblay     inn             3 Imbued:4
1x Inez "Nurse216" Villagrande       inn             3 Imbued:4
1x Liz "Ticket312" Thornton          inn             2 Imbued:4

/* You might think I'd want more copies of Travis or Jennie here
    but in some games, I really come close to emptying my crypt.
    I've just found it useful to be able to get out as many as
    11 Imbued. */

Library [75 cards]
Master [24]
1x Anarch Troublemaker
4x Angel of Berlin
1x Barrens, The
2x Brothers Grimm
1x Church of Vindicated Faith
1x Direct Intervention
1x Fortschritt Library
1x Information Highway
5x Memories of Mortality
1x Parthenon, The
1x Rose Foundation, The
4x Sudden Reversal
1x Unity

/* I never really use Unity, but it seems like it should be here.
    Brothers Grimm is very key.  Nobody ever tries to take it.  It's just
    free pool!  There are really a lot of masters here and I usually am
    holding way more than I can expect to play.  That's fine.  Imbued decks
    do not need to cycle cards the way vampire decks do thanks to the way
    Convictions work.  Transients really aren't needed.  It is also
    interesting to mention that I don't think I played a single Angel of
    Berlin this tournament.  There was once or twice I might have, but it
    was more important to Sudden something earlier in the turn. */

Action [2]
2x Bond

/* Totally useless.  I don't think I've ever played Bond.  If I were to
    keep playing this deck, I'd drop these in an instant. */

Ally [2]
1x Carlton Van Wyk (Hunter)
1x Vagabond Mystic

Conviction [21]
7x React with Conviction
7x Second Sight
7x Strike with Conviction

/* You really can't have too many Convictions.  Considering how many
    minions I tend to get out, this is a little light.  But just having 8
    or 9 minions usually makes you win anyway, so there's not any real need
    to add more.  I always go for React first since the worst thing someone
    can do is steal my minion and use it against me. */

Event [4]
1x Anthelios, The Red Star
1x Edge Explosion
1x Thirst
1x Unmasking, The

/* I am notoriously lucky in drawing The Unmasking early.  In fact, I
    think I played it on the first or second turn (once thanks to
    Fortschritt) in each round this tournament.  Thirst is just there as an
    enabler, but sometimes it helps to hurt other vampire decks.  I'm not
    that interested in playing a bunch of events that would hurt people
    cross-table.  This deck isn't intended to make any extra enemies until
    the endgame. */

Power [18]
2x Champion
5x Donate
1x Hide
4x Inspire
1x Project
4x Rejuvenate
1x Vigilance

/* The most important rule for Champion is to never use it.  As soon as
    you have Champion out, your predator makes it a top priority to get it
    tapped or to burn/steal that minion.  As long as that guy is just
    sitting there untapped with his Champion, your predator will dispair.
    Inspire is a very nice power because the individual effect is too small
    to get that worked up over, but when used repeatedly by multiple
    minions, it is devestating.  Donate is very nice because people forget
    about it.  I think I've mostly just used it for extra bleed, but
    could easily imagine wanting it for the other uses.  I'm also a big fan
    of Rejuvenate.  It's really the only thing that makes Beatrice
    playable.  On the other hand, I've found very little use for Hide or
    Project.  Most of the time, I just don't want to spend the extra
    convictions and gaining a little extra stealth or protection for one
    minion doesn't really contribute to the swarming strategy. */

Reaction [4]
4x Determine

/* I really haven't gotten much use out of these.  I know some players
    swear by them, but I don't like bouncing bleeds to the wrong place and
    actions I have to stop are usually better handled by blocking or Direct
    Intervention. */

I've been playing a version of this deck since then.  This
deck was also top seed going into the finals at the NAC
2006 Shadow Twin tournament.  The Crocodile Tongues were
the MVP, getting by Carlton several times, and once by a
tooled up Joaquin Murietta with 1 blood.  I intended to
include a Giant's Blood, but didn't find one before the
tournament.  Govern at DOM + freak drive + Scouting at DOM = fun.

Deck Name:   Guedado Where Are You?
Created By:  Adam Hulse
Description: This is the deck I won the tournament with. The "correct"
version, (was missing the burn cards right before I left for the
tournament) is a 61 card deck,removing a Parthenon, adding Specialization 
and Brothers Grimm, and turning all the burn cards into the same master card 
burn card. I love the fact the Guadado is the "key" vampire, being both Tzimisce 
and Laibon (and has obf). Ana Rita Montana and a Laibon will do in a pinch. 
The Charisma/PB: Tshawane is great for allies, as well as reducing costs 
for cards like Memories.

Notes on deck:
The main reason i've picked to play with this deck was that i was
pretty sure what every player is gonna play.
My predictions came true and of 10 participants only 3 didn't have for
or dom in their crypt (note that 5 players who didn't show up would
play dom or for).

The dack itself needs some tweaking and these are potential changes:
-Perefctionst/ +Secure Haven
-Renewed Vigor/ +Conditioning
-Kiss of Ra/ +Dawn Operation

I have never influenced Blanche and she will probably be replaced with
Samson and Lana Bucher.

Here's Steve Holmer's decklist.  He used dirty dirty PTO to blow 
up his initial prey's Persephone Tar-Annis before she got to take 
an action in the finals, then slightly later, his grandprey's 
Lady Zara Slatikov.  Not bad for two actions and two blood.  
Too bad he didn't get to use a really overpowered card like 
Voter Captivation at the same time.  :-)

Steve's comments: The key to making this stealth vote/bleed work is to 
get two Inner Circle members in play. It is most vulnerable to rush 
decks and decks where the prey has both lots of intercept and combat 
capacity.

North East Regional Qualifier
Providence, Rhode Island
02/17/2007
34 players

I did indeed end up winning. Although I like to think of my deck as
less of a bleed deck and more of a toolboxy Minion factory, since I
use (4) Grooming the Protege and (15) The Call. My bleed package is
actually quite low with (3) Madman's Quill, (2) Confusion, and (4)
Eyes of Chaos. There is a decent amount of stealth, but not obscene
with (17) stealth cards (not including the Confusions and Random
Patterns in superior). The deck performed well all day, but there are
definately things I would tweak. I would remove a few (probably 3) of
The Call and add a few more bleed cards and/or votes.

Anyway... here is the deck:

Name: Unacceptable Boon
Created By: Ben Peal
Description: Yet another in my line of breed-boon decks. This one
was born from a conversation with Brian Moritz at the 2006 NAC, where
he mentioned using Unacceptable Appearance on your own !Nos. Legacy
of Pander is the clear use of this, so I adapted my breed-boon
template to !Nos-Pander. Greensleeves and Lukas (whose appearances on
their cards are already unacceptable) get UA, then make Creation Rites
babies. You eventually play Legacy of Pander for killer vote lock,
and call Consanguineous Boons and KRCs. I didn't notice until after
the fact that Lukas has inferior Serpentis, so throw in a couple
Temptations or a Form of Corruption for added fun. Thanks to Matt
Hirsch for running the event, and thanks to Grant, Ximon, and the
staff of TempleCon for having us!

Brujah Debate: Montreal, Canada
2007/02/03
20 Methuselahs

Here is the winning deck:

Deck Name: We are the world
Created by: Francois de Champlain
Description: This deck is a wake up call to the world to how powerful
the Guhuri are (hence the deck name) - people in our playgroup hardly
play this clan. The deck is very simple, it ignores the bad mix of
disciplines (I do not think potence mixes well with the dominant
Laibon clan) and tries to correct the clan's weakness: the absence of
stealth (which is easily corrected with the addition of abombwe trifle
discipline). Uses all the best Laibon and Guhuri cards, cycles super
fast and bloats well.

The main advantage of this deck is the fact that it is not a clan with
a bad rep so you get away with powerful bleeds and votes without too
much retaliation. Could use a bit of permaintercept (like a shaman)
and more permanent titles. The crypt could do with less doubling of
certain vampires - you'll get 4 vampires out per game.

Basically forget potence and discover abombwe... You'll fall in love
with this clan !

Deck Name : Imperial March
Author : Ben Swainbank

Description :
This is a kinda Power Tools deck. It's toolboxy with a bunch of power
cards with a focus on Celerity and Fortitude - combination with which
I am overly fond and have done to death at this point. It's got enough
combat to dominate non-fighty decks and hold its own against very
fighty decks. It's a serious vote presence at the table, lots of
intercept, and some "big" actions to try and throw down. And some
Imbued for pool mop-up and other duties as assigned.

Deck Name:   [Lasombra] Turbo Lucita
Created By:  Andrea "RaVa TwO FaCeS" Ravera
Description: Put the soul gem on Lucita ASAP, she's a 8 cap, untap 
with freak drive (costs 1 blood). Employ camarilla vitae slave (costs 
2 blood, now lucita is a 9 cap), untap with freak drive (costs 1 blood).  
Perform Embrace (costs 2 blood). With 2 blood left on her, and tapped, 
Lucita perfomrs Force of Will (cost 1 blood), and plays conditioning 
(cost 1 blood). Now lucita has zero blood, and takes 2 aggravated damage, 
which burn her, triggering soul gem. A new copy of lucita enters play, 
and inherits the gem. She is a pretty new and different vamp from the 
one that has burned before, so she can bleed again, recruit another slave, etc...

Combo-breed-bleed.

Deadly, and hard to play.

Deck name: Bitch Fight 3: the Return of the Bitch
Deck Creator: Anthony Coleman
Description from Anthony:
        This is the same deck that I made and played to victory in the
        Nergal Bath 2005 storyline event, also this was played by Hugh
        at the NAC and he took it to victory (changing a fame for a
        raven spy) and then the UK nats.. so 3 tournies and 3 wins for
        what is a pretty innocuous deck.. probably one of the reasons it
        does pretty well :)

/* The intention here is to get past casual intercept and occasionally
    break a wall.  I was imagining a Strange Day Banishment on Howler or
    something like that, but I never actually had to deal with much
    intercept.  I lowballed the vote push because of the strength of
    titles.  Since Ayo has inferior obfuscate, I play one of each obf
    card, plus the Uncontrolled Impulses, Forgotten Labyrinths and Forced
    Marches.  That could add up to a lot of stealth. */

Action Modifier/Reaction [5]
   2x Ishtarri Kholo

/* I didn't get the Kholos all that often, but they aren't that important.
    Scalpel Tongue is a great card.  I didn't have to use it defensively,
    but it's still nice to have.  I originally had Telepathic Vote
    Counting, but I think Scalpel Tongue is a stronger card here. */

    what to take out.  I never played the Pentex.  That was put in for

GO AHEAD AND BLOCK THIS!
 
By Hugues Bertrand
 
This deck was inspired by a deck by Robert Scythe  that  I had seen on
the Vtes in L.A Website. I wondered if it was as strong as it seemed,
I tweaked it a bit and never played it, I was planning to play it in
casual play... I entered last minute in this tourney and decided to
try it... It obviously needs more tweeking but I had a blast playing
it!

Matt Morgan's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Akunanse bleed and block v2
Author : Matt Morgan
Description : Bleed forward and block backward.  No Secrets From the
Magaji and Guardian Angel (or a gun of some sort) will stop many decks
dead in their tracks.  This deck has an answer to most strategies and
bleeds very well besides.  Its main weakness is if other decks can
block it tooling up.  This was evidenced in this year's NERQ when all 
my bleed permanents were blocked so even after I ran my prey out of
s:ce, I couldn't do much other than bleed for 1.

I think this deck is one of the best I've ever made.  That is evidenced 
by its performance in two tournaments against some of the top players 
in the US (if not the world).  Anyone who feels that Legacies of Blood 
isn't a strong set, should try something like this.  This version may 
not be ideal for every metagame as it is built to withstand some serious 
combat if necessary and it could have more stealth if that would be 
helpful.  Also, in an extremely stealthy environment, more permanent 
intercept may be necessary.  Delaying Tactics could certainly go in 
here if you aren't confident of catching every vote.  Some of the 
Predator's Communion could be Forced Awakening, which would be crucial 
verses a Giovanni powerbleed running The Sleeping Mind.  The main idea 
here is to have a wallish deck that can bleed forward well.  I think 
a deck with No Secrets From the Magaji is perfectly suited to such 
a concept because I only block forward when it's necessary or 
advantageous.  I don't need to block my prey to kill him.  First of all, 
this lets my prey play his game and weaken his prey before I get him 
(in a perfect world) and secondly this makes it less likely for me to 
lose my No Secrets before my predator's turn, which could be fairly 
disastrous.

John Bell's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name:   Hmm...Yeah I'll Block That (a.k.a. Ol' Big Eye)
Created By:  John Bell
Description:
I figured to see the Imbued at Origins, and of course being a qualifier, 
figured to see a quite a lot of Stealth/Bleed and Stealth/Vote.  This deck 
gives me a ton of flexibility on which actions happen at the table.  I was 
able to negotiate some short-term deals by simply *not* Eagle's Sight 
blocking a few times.  I die horribly to combat, particularly the animalism 
variety - which two decks in the finals were running.  My only hope was for 
them to wreck each other, which eventually did happen.

Tournament Winning Deck by Ben Peal

Deck Name:   Howler and Friends
Created By:  Ben Peal
Description: This is a fairly toolboxy wall deck, getting out assorted
allies and retainers, with Howler minding the fort.  A few years ago,
Andreas Nusser clued me in to the power of Form of Corruption for keeping 
your prey in check if you're a slowly developing deck, and it works to great 
effect here, and the Neighborhood Watch Commanders can really take their toll.  
Over the course of the tournament at Origins, I managed to steal Arika twice!

Josh Duffin's Tournament Winning Deck

Here's the list as played - it was intended to be a 90-card deck 
but one of the React with Convictions apparently fell out before 
I started the tournament, so I played it at 89 cards that day.

This deck was inspired substantially by Matt Morgan's Defender-based 
Imbued deck, with lots of blocking and, of course, Rejuvenate.  This 
version, though, came from the idea of putting in at least some of all 
the cool-looking Powers to see which ones were really worth playing 
with; those took the place of some other things that might have been 
useful, like Sport Bikes...

Ben Peal's Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name:   Lasombra Creation Boon
Created By:  Ben Peal
Description: This deck was directly inspired by Jeff "The Lasombra"
Thompson's Lasombra decks that took advantage of breed, Power Structure, and Consanguineous Boon:

http://www.thelasombra.com/decks/boc.htm
http://www.thelasombra.com/decks/The_Lasombra_Embraces_the_Austrian_Nationals.htm

I built my own version quite some time ago, but while it did very well in casual games, 
it never quite got it going in a tournament.  After my tournament wins with a Ventrue 
version (Buckets o' Money) and an Assamite version (Team Amaravati) of the same concept, 
I came to the conclusion that I needed to get rid of the Obtenebration in the deck and 
exclusively use Obfuscate for stealth, since Obfuscate stealth is free.  Angelica, 
Gratiano, and Guido have Obfuscate, making this a solid plan.  The deck worked like 
a charm, getting 4 GW.

My prey was an Inner Circle Deck in the final, played by Simeon Nagel.
So, I had a lot of good discards in the Croc's Tongues.   The
Antediluvian Awakening played by James "Grimm" Nault and his 2 cap
weenie Sabbat with 46 Ascendance deck helped to keep the game to a
tidy hour of play.  Jon Sushenski, a very welcome addition to Atlanta
these days, was playing an Intercepting Malk Croc tongue deck that was
having the same trouble with me that I was having with my Inner Circle
prey and figured it was best to back bleed and oust his weenie sabbat
pred, Grimm.   Mike Perlman got James' VP with his
temptation-bleed-you-dead-Setites.  Simeon got Mikes' VP a short time
later and I was able to clean up getting Sim and Jon.   Lucky day.

Tournament Winning Deck

Deck name: Team Amaravati
Created by: Ben Peal 
Description: Looking at Amaravati, I was inspired by Lasombra Jeff's
Lasombra Creation Boon deck. Amaravati plays Governs to get out more
guys. Guys get out Web of Knives Recruits. Weenie bleeding and
Govern bleeding commence, backed up with KRCs via massive vote push
from Amaravati's special. Con Boons for either defense or more guys.
35 stealth might seem like a lot (ok, it's a lot), but currently
there's a lot of permanent intercept out there chewing up the stealth
of vamps with inferior Obfuscate. Alamut isn't critical due to
Amaravati's special, but it's a plus when you get it (same for Ventrue
Headquarters). This is also a good deck for a player on a budget, as
the only expensive card in there is Direct Intervention (and one could
replace it with a Yoruba Shrine or something).

that my library wouldn't exhaust itself in the end-game, so cutting the
library down wouldn't be such a good idea unless deck would be altered
to be more permanent-oriented (having more permanent intecept and
perhaps Metro Underground or the like)

A fairly defensive deck using Pack Alpha to tool up a Magaji with many
retainers, maybe tack on a Guardian Angel or Ivory Bow, and then put on
the No Secrets.  The deck doesn't bleed very strongly, but it can win a
war of attrition (or make a quick finish with Anarchist Uprising).

Winning deck follows below:

Deck Name : Foul Play
Author : Alex Ek, inspired by a Nosferatu deck made by Jay Kristoff
Description : Weenie malk voter. Use malk justicar and cryptic rider 
to vote in a vote heavy environment. Adding Victoria and Greger Andersen 
to make a 14 vamp crypt might be a good choice. Adding some extra stealth 
and maybe a malkavian rider clause might be good.

Winning deck :  Godzilla deck by François de Champlain

This deck is a mass bruise bleed deck. The secret is to threaten 
your predator (even torporise a few of his minions) and keep him 
out of your way right from the beginning (with you first hatchling) :
you have enough ousting power. After that he'll leave you alone. 
That's what the haven uncovered and bum's rush are for.

This deck attracts a lot of attention so don't get greedy. Split
table VPs as soon as you can otherwise the table will team against 
you.  Divide to better reign !

The core of this deck is the 42 combat cards. Do not go under ! 
As for the hatchlings, 14 is a good number... Especially with the added
thin-blooded seers. 13 masters and 5 trifles is a lot. . Fame and
Anarch troublemaker were very useful. Could remove some stealth and 
add more rockhearts.

Ps: took the risks of being voted out by cards like anarchist uprising
but preferred the tributes instead of the DI s.

Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : This is not a Hatchling deck
Author : Matt Morgan
Description : It's basically a swarm deck that can fight.  I even found 
myself playing it like a swarm, i.e. Mustafa bleeds, gets blocked, I don't 
bother to slave in, but bleed with a Gargoyle instead.

Crypt [12 vampires] Capacity average: 4.84
------------------------------------------------------------
3x Ublo-Satha             7  FOR POT VIS cel   Gargoyle:2
2x Saxum, Master of S     6  FOR VIS pot pre   Gargoyle:2
2x Luma, Stone Beauty     5  FOR aus pot vis   Gargoyle:2

1x Roreca Quaid           2  tha               Tremere:1

/* Crypt was just fine.  I got Ublo-Satha in every round except the 
    final. I always had a decent mix of Tremere and Gargoyles in my 
    uncontrolled region. */

Library [90 cards]
------------------------------------------------------------
Action [12]
   1x Aranthebes, The Immortal
   6x Create Gargoyle
   3x Defender of the Haven
   2x Hatchling

/* Aranthebes would've saved me in round 3, but he declined to make an
    appearance.  Could've made even had more Create Gargoyles.  Alas 
    for the Hatchlings.  Defender of the Haven is strong.  I got it 
    into play in rounds 1 and 3. */

Action Modifier [4]
   4x Conditioning

/* Probably should've been more but this was meant to be an 
    exploratory effort. */

Combat [36]
   4x Crawling Chamber
   6x Immortal Grapple
   4x Pounce
   3x Pulled Fangs
   8x Raking Talons
   9x Rockheart
   2x Roll

/* Raking Talons and Rockheart are both super good.  Check out the
    outferior of Rockheart.  It totally saved me from Shambling Hordes
    in round 2 and got me that vital .5 VP I needed to make the final. 
    I didn't really feel like the Grapples were that necessary.  The 
    could probably be cut for more of the other stuff.  I mean, it's a
    swarm deck that might agg you if you block.  It's not like I need 
    to make every combat count.  Roll is a great card and was also 
    good for frustrating Shambling Hordes.  I originally had Tastes, 
    but cut them due to poor synergy with agg pokes.  I should've had 
    Stone Quills in here.  It's the only real answer to Sniper Rifle.  */

Master [15]
   1x Academic Hunting Ground
   1x Arcane Library
   1x Barrens, The
   6x Blood Doll
   1x Chantry
   1x Dominate
   1x Fame
   2x Haven Uncovered
   1x Potence

/* Never saw the hunting ground.  I figured Arcane Library would be
    killer, but I only drew it in the final and had no Tremere in my
    uncontrolled region.  Chantry was played but not used as there 
    were no rush decks to target my Tremere.  The Potence master and 
    Havens Uncovered weren't useful.  Six Blood Dolls was my way of 
    insuring the deck wouldn't be completely pathetic. */

Reaction [20]
   6x Deflection
   2x Delaying Tactics
   4x Forced Awakening
   4x Scry the Hearthstone
   4x Wake with Evening's Freshness

/* I wanted to try out Scry the Hearthstone.  It's limitation to (D)
    actions (similar limitation to Defender of the Haven) makes it 
    kind of bad because vote decks and other such things can act with 
    impunity.  I mostly discarded them and probably would've rather 
    had Patrol.  Delaying Tactics were really big for me in the final 
    and I was lucky to draw them both in my first 20 cards.  I played 
    the first one to Delay Josh's Free States Rant which was to be 4 
    points on my guys.  When he called the vote again the next turn, 
    he needed to put some of the points backward on Ethan.  My other 
    use was mentioned above. */

Retainer [3]
   2x Razor Bat
   1x Stone Dog

/* The Razor Bats were good when I got them.  I probably should've had
    four of them.  The Stone Dog was always discarded.  I was thinking
    that permanent rush would be useful, but I just never wanted to 
    pay 3 pool for the privilege. */

This deck is an old friend of mine. It has been
heavily modified over the years, with the most recent
modification being the addition of dominate to the
deck. The Gangrel were the first clan that I really
got to work in casual play, many years ago. I tried it
a few times in tournaments but it lacked the speed
necessary to win a table. After the addition of
dominate for some added pressure it has been much more
effective, with several strong showings. While a good
position and some luck was key in winning the day,
this deck showed itself to be a strong competitor.

Name of tournament: Quebec Championship 2005
Location: Gatineau, Canada
Date: October 29, 2005
Number of players: 18
Number of rounds: 3 + F

MiF'S winning deck:

Deck Name:   It's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine.
Created By:  Michel-Etienne "MiF" Fortin
Description: A very fun and challenging deck to play. Expect to have 
the whole table turn against you once you've dropped down a couple 
Gehenna cards. Wins by painfully slow attrition. In the mid-game, 
you should have gotten rid of all your vampires (eat them with Gregory, 
or diablerize them yourself), so the nastiest events won't affect you. 
Then you can play Dragonbound for the oust (initial bleeds by your 
weenies, and then later Mylan and Gregory will help as well).

Mark's comments:
The same basic combat monster I've been running with a few new twists.
Archon and Alastor votes for permanent rush worked well, same with the
weapons, either with the Alastor or without. Nightmare upon nightmare
was put in as a 'screw' vs breeder decks but was never an issue and
may be replaced. The lone telepathic misdirection is for that third
point of unexpected intercept of that surprise bounce of a big bleed,
but is rarely of much use and could probably become another rush or
Second. The standing votes the crypt provides, and Nikolaus's special
to get them out quicker and cheaper are two of the most important
elements of the deck. If nothing else, the combat module allows one
to make one's presence felt at a table.

Deck Name:   Pesadilla Vudú (Woodoo Nightmare)
Created By:  Miguel Pascual (aka Kico)
Description: Bring out Shambling Hordes, play Temptations on vampires
controlled by another Methuselah, and keep alive until you have a
decent setup. This deck is very weak if your predator is very aggressive from 
the beginning of the game. If you successfully set up, then you get an interesting 
control of the table. The Khobar Towers allow you to gain 3 pool when your 
Shambling Hordes have 1 life left. It is also interesting to use the Towers 
when you also have the Heidelberg Castle in play and you put a vampire in play, 
since it allows you to move all his blood to another vampire you control and 
remove him from the game afterward for pool gain.

VENTRUE POWER!
by Hugues Bertrand

This deck is geared around Arika and Marcus Vitel. It is quite slow to
start but once it gets going it is hard to stop. Since Dramatic
Upheaval and Kindred Restructure were made illegal in tournaments the
deck has weakened but it is still quite powerful. It is quite
vulnerable to combat decks and those who start quickly such as B/S and
weenie decks. The freakdrives make-up for the size of the vamps by
allowing for many actions per turn.This deck deals quite well with
intercept decks.

Deck Description: The idea of the deck is to use the Escaped Mental
Patients with Flash Grenades for tapping, Revelations and Change of
Targets to get rid of Wakes and permanent bleed enhancers with some
Dementation support for ousting. The EMPs are also great at slowing
down too aggressive predators (or any players, for that matter) and
defending against rushes and such.

"The deck is designed to run in spurts. Whether off the bat or later 
in the game some turns will be spent doing nothing, waiting for the
opportunity to cycle reactions and combat cards, other turns will
consist of vote, freak, bleed, freak, etc. One advantage of the deck
that some people have keyed on is the lack of permanents to make the
deck appear frightening. With three vampires out, most people are only
afraid of Arika, and then only because of her text, PTO ability and +2
bleed. Very rarely do people worry about the cloaks, or the extra
actions with freak drives and majesty. I've been playing and tweaking
this deck since I started seriously playing Vampire, almost 3 years
now, so this deck is as good as it gets. Modifications consist only of
2-4 card swap outs based on metagame, more or less combat, stealth,
vote bump cards depending. I went with 12 combat and 8 stealth instead
of a previous 10 and 6 because of KMW's combat, and the number of times 
intercept has kicked my butt. The 8 stealth card setup is probably going 
to stay, but in a less combat-heavy environment, 1 majesty and 1 rolling 
would get swapped for other cards. Oh also, I like the lack of wakes. 
People often times will behave as though I have a wake in my hands for 
deflections when I don't. Thanks to all those 'responsible' bleeders 
out there :)" - Peter Charnley

Notes:
Crocodile's Tongue prevents a player from blocking, not just a minion, so the 
trick is to ensure that your Prey is forced to attempt a block with a minion 
with only one blood. There are 3 other Block Fails/Can't Block cards in the 
deck to make this easy. Use Aristotle's Permanent Stealth to commit them to one 
blocker and run them dry of blood. Use Leandro's Permanent Bleed to bleed them 
out.

True Love and Loyalty by Phil Thompson

Just an attempt to do block denial while avoiding Necrobleed.
Originally used Kahina and Khaytall with added Pulse and Seduction but
found it too slow off the mark. As with all block denial speed helps
enormously as most damage is done early. Possible advantages over
standard Necrobleed include tapping with Faceless Night and a chance
to cancel bounce with Approximation. True Love's Face followed by
Elder Impersonation is always fun !

BEN'S DECK NOTES:
Around the time I was contemplating the EconoGhoul deck, I got into a
conversation on the #vtes irc channel (irc.sorcery.net) with David
Cherryholmes and others about Henry Taylor, and how obnoxious it can 
be to put a Protean skill card on him and playing Earth Meld to protect 
a Smiling Jack.  This seemed like a great application of the Pochtli 
Twister tech, so I decided to build the deck.  I used Dirty Contracts 
instead of Tracker's Marks, and included a Brothers Grimm, as the Dirty 
Contracts could be used to protect the Brothers Grimm.  Ruins of Villers 
Abbey, Belgium and Quick Meld are in there for combat defense, as they're 
extremely card-efficient sources of maneuvers (and the maneuvers from the 
Ruins can be paid for with The Rack).   Millicent Smith is there to slow 
the rate of table progression down, while speeding up the rate of turns, 
helping to buy clock time for the Smiling Jack to work.  I don't recommend 
using such a deck in a casual game.  As much as there are assorted ways of 
defeating this deck (Pentex Subersion, Immortal Grapple, Kiss of Ra, etc.), 
if the table doesn't have a way of getting past Henry, you'll be wasting 
2 hours of their time as they get to sit there and do nothing.  That's fine 
for a tournament, but not fine for a friendly game.  Props again to Keith 
Page, a former Boston player who built the original Pochtli Twister deck, 
of which my Pochtli Twister deck is its namesake, and Henry Twister is 
similarly named in its honor.

BEN'S DECK NOTES:
I'd been thinking about building a War Ghoul deck for a while, but
acquiring the 10 of them that one needs for the usual 60-card version
looked to be a pain in the neck.  So, I thought about applying the 
tech developed with the Pochtli Twister deck, building a version that 
was 30 or so cards, with half the War Ghouls, and padding out the deck 
with burn option cards.  This would save me from having to get more 
War Ghouls, and I figured that it'd be extremely rare that an ally 
rush decks would bring out 6 or more such allies anyway.  When Mata 
Hari was printed, I decided to build the deck, as she could take easy 
advantage of Waste Management Operation and I liked the superior 
Obfuscate.  Josh Feuerstein then clued me into the fact that the 
burn option cards could be D'habi Revenants, as they can be discarded 
via burn option, and Mata Hari could employ them for use in creating 
War Ghouls (though not for the bleed bonus).  I ran with the idea 
and included a variety of other burn option cards, such as Riddle 
Phantastique and Chanjelin Ward.  The deck proved to be highly 
effective, the only worry being that Mata Hari might get immediately 
rushed via Red List when she comes out, before a Secure Haven or 
Chanjelin Ward could be put on her.  As such I recommend dropping 
a couple Obfuscate stealth cards and including a couple copies of 
Mirror Image.  Another discovery was how solid it was to bring back 
Jake Washington via the Waste Management Operation, as it allows 
you to stop one rushing minion cold every turn.  Props to Josh 
Feuerstein for the D'habi Revenant idea, and to Ruben Vidana Ramos 
and Stephane Lavrut whose War Ghoul decks I used as references 
(and to Lasombra Jeff for the TWD Archive!).

1x Lia Milliner          3  dom nec           Giovanni:3


/* Pretty obvious choices here.  Le Dinh Tho was a last-minute
   substitution for a 3rd Isabel.  I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have won
   without him. */


Library [90 cards] // Yet again I make my deck too big.  This should've
                   // been in the 70-80 card range.  I never came close
                   // to running out of cards and there were certainly some
                   // key cards I wanted to draw.
------------------------------------------------------------


Action [8]
   1x Far Mastery          // Stole a Procurer in the 3rd round.
   7x Govern the Unaligned // Used both ways.  This ended up being a good
                           // number.


Action Modifier [12]
   5x Call of the Hungry Dead
   7x Seduction


Action Modifier/Reaction [4]
   4x Spectral Divination


/* Pretty standard "don't block me" package.  Could've been more cards,
   but since the action starts at 1 stealth (2 with Andrea), this was
   sufficient.  I used the Spectral Divinations for intercept more than
   once. */


Ally [20]
   2x Leonardo, Mortician // He's better than Procurer.  Don't even try to
                          // tell me otherwise!
   18x Shambling Hordes   // Good number!


Combat [10]
   6x Fake Out            // I hardly needed these.  I was fortunate not
                          // to run into any gun decks.
   4x Spiritual Intervention


Event [3]
   1x Dragonbound
   1x FBI Special Affairs Division
   1x Unmasking, The


/* These events worked out very well.  I was lucky in drawing them early
   every round.  Dragonbound helped me gain almost every VP all day.  Six
   cards in hand is plenty for a Horde deck since I don't rely on any
   combat combos.  Unmasking was discarded in round 3, but was critical in
   round 2 and the final.  FBI Special Affairs Division is just huge.  It
   makes a Horde with 1 life very useful indeed.  I actually didn't rack
   up very many counters on it.  It mostly served as a deterrant. */


Master [17]
   2x Acquired Ventrue Assets  // Great card for this deck.
   1x Barrens, The             // Got it early in almost every round.
   2x Blood Doll               // I'm something of a Blood Doll addict, so
                               // it was kind of scary playing with only
                               // two of them.  Worked out well, though.
   1x Charisma
   1x Creepshow Casino         // Never really needed it, but I didn't
                               // face heavy intercept.
   1x Dreams of the Sphinx     // Gave me a turn 2 Andrea twice.
   2x Fame                     // Can't live without it.
   1x Giant's Blood            // Played it right before Oscar was going
                               // to play his in the finals.
   1x Jake Washington (Hunter) // Great with Unmasking + FBI or just eat
                               // him for the blood.
   1x KRCG News Radio          // Never needed it.
   1x Morgue Hunting Ground
   1x Path of Bone, The        // This was nice, but not crucial.
   1x Perfectionist
   1x Specialization           // I was surprised, but I hardly got any
                               // use out of this at all.  I figured in a deck
                               // with 18 of the same card, this would be
                               // a killer.  It ended up being practically
                               // useless.


Reaction [16]
   7x Deflection
   2x Poison Pill
   7x Wake with Evening's Freshness


/* I had meant to replace 3 Deflections with Redirections to save blood,
   but I forgot.  Don't know if that would've made a difference.  The
   bounce was crucial in round 2 and the final but useless in rounds 1 and
   3.  Only played Poison Pill once and it didn't change the outcome of
   the referendum.  I keep trying with this card, but I've yet to have any
   positive outcome.  The only nice thing is the Hordes can play it. */

Deck Name : Maureen and Heralds
Author : Matt Morgan
Description : Use Maureen to get Heralds of Topheth at reduced cost.
Rush, bleed and deflect to victory.  I would not have won, but it seems 
everyone else decided to also go for "fun" decks over "good" decks.

This deck is a little at odds with my play style in that I normally
like to give my prey enough rope to hang himself with.  When I get a
couple Heralds out, I really can't afford to sit around waiting for the 
game to develop to my liking, but I still tend to try to play that way 
anyway.  I think I got lucky in that my predators in the first two
rounds and the final simply weren't able to do a lot to me.


Crypt [12 vampires] Capacity min: 4 max: 6 average: 5.42
------------------------------------------------------------
6x Maureen, Dark Prie     6  DAI PRE dom obf      1 vote Baali:4
2x Catherine du Bois      5  DOM for obf pre      Ventrue:3
1x Assad Salhoum          5  aus dem dom obf      Malkavian:4
1x Black Lotus            5  DOM aus obf ser      Follower :4
1x Cristos Mantigo        5  aus cel dom obf pre  !Toreador:3
1x Robin Withers          4  dom obf pre          Ventrue:4

/* Six copies of Maureen and I didn't draw her in my opening crypt in
the finals!  I played six copies because I only expected to get out two 
vampires due to the high cost of maintaining Heralds.  Never got out 
Assad or Black Lotus, but Catherine, Robin and Cristos did an admirable 
job bouncing bleeds and bleeding. */

Library [78 cards]

/* I normally build 90 card decks just because I like to play a lot of
cards.  This one probably could've gone down to 70 without any
problems. I never came close to decking myself at 78 cards.  Obviously, 
I didn't build this one at 90 because I wanted to draw the Heralds reliably. */

------------------------------------------------------------
Action [6]
   1x Contagion
   5x Legal Manipulations

/* I went for Legals over Conditionings because the Heralds can play
them. I don't think I ever had them play these as they were too busy
rushing. Contagion was key in round 1 for weakening the table to the
point where I could win with limited bleed power. */

Action Modifier [10]
   2x Cloak the Gathering
   2x Domain of Evernight
   2x Faceless Night
   2x Forgotten Labyrinth
   2x Lost in Crowds

Action Modifier/Combat [2]
   2x Swallowed by the Night

/* No superior obf in the crypt so I got blocked a few times.
Fortunately, I didn't face any heavy intercept except in round 2 when
my predator had Jaroslav with a Sport Bike and two intercept locations.  
Lucky for me he couldn't draw enough Wakes to stop me from getting out 
Heralds and also defend against his predator. */

Ally [10]
   1x Carlton Van Wyk (Hunter)
   8x Herald of Topheth
   1x Vagabond Mystic

/* Didn't get much use out of Carlton or the Mystic, but they're good
in theory.  The Heralds were great, even against the heavy combat other 
decks were playing.  The fact that they regenerate and can always hit 
for 3 (plus play Conflagration!) meant I could wear down the opposition.  
When one died, I'd just have Maureen get another.  It's not the initial 
cost that is prohibitive, it's the infernal tax. */

Combat [19]
   6x Conflagration
   9x Immortal Grapple
   4x Pounce

/* Grapples were only important in round 1 when I preyed on a Majesty
deck.  Otherwise, all the decks I faced were pretty dedicated to
dealing out pain rather than avoiding it.  The Conflagrations were very 
good, especially since Maureen can play them too.  I might've added Disarms, 
but didn't really need them.  Hitting for 3 or 5 per combat is usually 
sufficient. */

Event [1]
   1x Unmasking, The

/* Saved me in round 1 when my prey called an Ancilla Empowerment.  If
I hadn't won that game, I wouldn't have had my choice of seat in the
finals. I had considered adding Dragonbound, but decided against it
because of how defenseless my vampires are in this deck.  After the way 
Josh's Dragonbound worked for me in the finals, I might reconsider
that. */

Master [14]
   5x Blood Doll
   1x Charisma
   2x Dreams of the Sphinx
   2x Fame
   1x Giant's Blood
   1x Jake Washington (Hunter)
   1x Mob Connections
   1x Ruins of Charizel

/* I had luck with Giant's Blood, getting mine first most of the time.
Jake helped a lot as a free blocker (with Unmasking!).  I don't think I ever 
ate him.  Fames gave me the table in round 2.  Ruins was played
once, but I didn't get any use out of it.  Mob Connections goes well
with Heralds, but I put a little too much effort into defending it in
round 3 and lost a Heralds to Lazverinus' mighty strike. */

Reaction [16]
   10x Deflection
   6x Wake with Evening's Freshness

/* I was expecting heavy stealth bleed, so I jammed 10 Deflections into a 78 
card deck.  Instead I found heavy combat and so these weren't actually that 
much use.  Still, at the rate this deck hemmorages pool, bouncing bleeds of 
1 is even worthwhile. */

Deck Name:   Bleed Like Me, Responsibly
Created By:  John Alston-Campbell 
Description:
Not quite weenie OBF AUS DEM.  Concept was to bleed for 2 or 3 each turn and 
avoid stealth jam but still have enough of it if need be; thus most of the 
stealth served a dual purpose.  Reality was never enough DEM in the opening 
crypt and rarely enough AUS for the counters to work effectively.  By the time 
I got to the finals I knew that I had to go digging for the AUS or I was toast 
against my Malk! predator.  I had to cycle like a bastard to oust Claudio to win 
and learned that Misdirection is worth its weight in gold (hang on, a single 
library card doesnt weigh very much), ok more.  Midget was my vampire of choice 
on the day as my prey in both the third game and the finals was packing raven spies.  
Nor did I regret packing 16 Telepathic Counters as they are eminently cyclable 
and manage to consistently frustrate, with only one card, my predator.  
My sympathies to Salem who because of his irresponsible bleeding ultimately 
gave me the game win in game 3 due to a pass the parcel bleed for 5 at 3 stealth!  
Cheers Telepathic Misdirection.

TWD by Michel-Étienne Fortin

Deck Name: Mage Power
Created By: MiF (Michel-Etienne Fortin)
Description: Weenie ally swarm using one of the most versatile ally in
the game. Put out a couple vamps, recruit like crazy and start the
onslaught. Once the recruiting is done, the vamps are here mostly to
hunt and bloat with the blood dolls or bounce bleeds and block
unharmful vampires. The rest is all done by the nephandi and Ossian
(who can be a real beast with Memories + Trap). Since you only have to
spend about 8-10 pools for vamps, you can afford to recruit about 4 or
5 allies and still have a decent pool cushion. The deck fears
intercept and the creepshow is often not enough, but you can bait them
out if you have multiple nephandus in your hand and try to slip one
by. Heavy combat is bad as well, which the Quebec metagame is full of,
but the Memories help a lot here, hence the high number of
them in the deck; just remember that Carrion Crows are your worst
enemy (about 1 deck out of 3 played those during the tournament, so
I'm surprised I managed to do that well).

Bill Troxel's winning deck:

The idea is to appear non-threatening, shut down power-setup decks
early, have staying power, and slowly build for the swarm bleed.
The non-threatening part is fairly easy to see; the deck has no
power combos nor dangerous-looking vampires whatsoever, and all of
the anarch revolts have been phased out.

The absence of oft-repeating cards becomes apparent to seasoned
opponents fairly quickly, allowing for surprise while at the same 
time appearing non-relentless and thus not scary. Shutting down 
cheesy power-setups is something in which I take great delight, 
especially in tournaments, and nothing is better for that than 
to bring out a first-turn vamp with intercept and combat capability. 
This aspect of the deck was particularly useful in this tournament, 
allowing me to stop Adam from getting his allies out (in a deck that's 
frightfully powerful when it gets going,) and keeping me from getting 
rolled over by a presence-weenie bleed deck, which, I've heard, had 
dealt 14 pool damage in a previous round before its prey ever got 
out a vamp.

As for staying power, most of the vampires are small enough that the
deck's pool gain can almost keep pace with the cost of its minions 
past the first few -- plus, it's an intercept deck, with blockers to 
spare.  What gives the deck its teeth (other than swarm potential) is 
that in combat, the auspex weenies almost always deal a little more 
damage than is expected. Weighted walking sticks, lucky blows and pulled 
fangs may seem newbie-ish, but how often do you anticipate Franciscus 
to deal four damage in a single round? That surprise factor is what 
motivated this version of the deck, along with a cost-benefit theory: 
if your vampires are dealing out more damage than their capacity, 
you're probably winning.

Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Corine has a changeling tongue
Author : Sebastien Varrette aka Falkor
Description :

Simple toolbox tzimisce, clearly oriented toward bleed thanks to
Fiendish Tongue (marvellous card for the clan) and changeling.
The bleed potential of the deck is often under-estimated and the
fear of the War Ghoul (that will never appear :-) ) can be exploited.
The femur is ideal for Corin, which is the star of the deck (it can
run without her but its +1 strength is really valuable).
For the rest, intercept and Rötshreck cleverly.
[Private note] : in the final, Horatio proved again that he's really
a incredible vampire as its revenant and its Ivory Bow used to be
the terror for my prey.  Feel the power of Horatio!!

Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name : Calling Demented Voters
Author : Matt Morgan
Description : Combat defense?  Who needs combat defense?  Vote push? 
That's for wimps.  Stealth?  That's for people who want successful 
actions.  I built this one in the hopes that the amount of stealth 
could handle even heavy intercept decks (Forgotten/Elder being the main way 
to do so).  I was also obviously hoping not to be rushed.  I got really 
lucky in that regard as I never sat next to a rush deck, but many times I had 
a predator who couldn't go forward due to a lack of minions.  In fact, 
in both the first round and the final I rescued my predator from torpor 
several times to keep the ol' meatshield alive (I'm lucky nobody ever 
decided to cut the middle man and rush me directly).

Looking at the deck, one might wonder how this or that card worked out. 
Most of the time, I couldn't tell you.  I've recently developed this 
extremely minimalist playing style where I'll play like 20 cards all 
game.  The deck is 90 cards by force of habit, but I never even came close to 
playing that many.  I guess it worked out okay this time, but it 
would've been nice to see the Jake, Gambit Accepted, Momentum's Edge, etc.  
Never got a chance to play any of those.

This tournament was two preliminary rounds and a final.  I got 4VPs at 
the first table as I couldn't prop my predator up long enough to get the 
sweep.  Then I swept my second table to get top seed on the finals.  I 
made the obvious choice to sit away from the combat decks at the table.  
I spent much of the game trying to keep my predator alive so I wouldn't 
get rushed by Euro-Brujah.  Then I drew the 3 KRCs I needed to oust my prey 
just after the Euro-Brujah ran out of steam and died.  My new prey, a 
!Nos rush deck, very nearly got his second VP for the win, but I was saved 
by the two hour time limit.

Gothenburg. The point of the deck is to dish out more damage then you
take, even if you take a lot of damage yourself, which you do.
However, enough Blood Dolls and the Hungry Coyote as well as perhaps a
stolen weapon and these guys are up there with the best.

Basic strategy is to use Enchant Kindred at superior and get the Blood
Dolls out to make your pool grow. Get out at least three vampires and
then you're good to go.

This deck should probably lose two vampires in favour of one more Theo
Bell and his Advanced copy.

Tournament winning deck by Dr.Hiramm Sanchez Gomez

Deck Name : Bugs Bunny
Author : Dr. Hiramm Sanchez Gomez
Description :
The trick of this deck is the Bugs Bunny maneuver; do you remember when
Bugs go through the earth to kick the ass of Sam or Daffy duck? This
deck does the same; bleed, bleed, and more bleed, and if someone tries
to stop you or comes to hit you; you'll have the protean to protect
yourself. Use "flesh of marble"  to defeat immortal grapple, or the
simple and excellent Bugs's maneuver: dig and use "earth meld".

Notes:
I have no idea why I did not have Erciyes Fragments, but I will
definately put them in for future use.  I also think Matthias could
benefit from a rack.  The deck is a little tricky, since Matthias runs
out of blood too quickly which makes your minion taps on your other
minions harder to do more effectively,

date of event: January 8th, 2005

the correct full name of the winning player: Sven Helmer

Deck Name: Anarch Diversion
Created By: Sven Helmer (inspired by Kevin Scribner's Anarchs Deck)
Description: Toolboxy Anarch Deck with lots of Diversions

When I visited the Boston playgroup in spring 2004 and played a game
with Kevin Scribner, I was impressed by his Anarch deck featuring
lots of diversions and decided to build one myself. The deck is a
little bit slow, but once it gets going it's really fun to play.

Powerbase:LA is a strong addition to this deck. Discarding your
surplus Galaric's Legacies and untapping vampires by doing so is
really nice. In my attempt to get down the number of cards I threw
out too many Weighted Walking Sticks (should have been more),
especially after replacing some with Zip guns (I had some trouble with
ranged combat decks before adding Zip guns, as my Magnums were always
blocked). Reformation wasn't too great (only played it once,
unsuccessfully). I also had trouble drawing into my Blood Dolls, maybe
I should add one more (and/or throw out some more cards).

The deck could be 60 cards, but I was worried about Nightmare Upon 
Nightmares, so padded it.

In blessed perfection, you seize praxis with as many minions as possible 
on turn 2, and then lay into the damaging votes, continuing to seize 
praxis with new minions as the oppurtunity presents itself.  You can 
never have too many princes, since they tend to live very, very short lives.

Tournament Winning Deck by Ben Peal

Deck Name: Nevermore
Created By: Ben Peal
Description: This deck started as an experiment in defending against
stealth-bleed decks without the aid of bleed bounce. The idea is to
get out obf-ani weenies, who then employ lots of Raven Spies. You
can't expect to block everything (especially early on, when you're
most vulnerable), but your predator will end up having to spend a lot
of stealth cards to get each action to succeed, to the point where
their hand will be stripped of sufficient stealth after one action
and they'll have to wait until they draw more stealth before making
another run. In the meantime, you can recoup any pool lost by
farming from Blood Dolls. You're also looking to get bleed retainers
and Sniper Rifles, as well as additional weenies. You eventually oust
your prey with weenie bleeds.

Tournament Winning Deck by Jon Scherer

Here's Jonathan's winning deck and comments:

Deck Name: One, Two (As in "one, two princes stand before you, that's
what I said now."  Spin Doctors song.)

So I think this proves that the Euro Brujah are strong even in the hands 
of someone who does not know what they are doing. The deck currently has 
too many votes and too much dominate. In this tournament it definitely 
needed more immortal grapple. People just kept running away. The flow of 
the deck is pretty poor as it is written. I may try more combat. I also 
could not get in as many fights as I would like so maybe a haven or 
additional bums rushes would be nice.

The idea is to lock down the table with your first traditions, then
pay for your turns and try to get a lower pool than your prey. Then
parity shift the pool back. If you can't get lower, then just use
your other damage dealing votes to oust.

Description: Basically a Group 3-4 Ventrue version of the Lasombra
Creation Boon deck, using 3rd Trads instead of Creation Rites and 
Ventrue Headquarters instead of Power Structure.  Marcus Vitel's 
retainer-burning ability was invaluable in the tournament.  This 
is now the second tournament I've won with a deck that was the 
result of a conversation with Sten During (the previous deck was 
Pochtli Twister).

Here is my winning deck. In this tournament, I've met more political decks than

Jeffrey Thompson won using this deck with 4 victory points in every
round, including the finals.  Only 1 victory point was acquired via
Dramatic Upheaval, this happened in the first round.  This was the
same deck he played at the North American Continental Championship
where he also took 1 game win.

Deck Name:   A Sudden Anarch Troublemaker
Created By:  The Lasombra
Description: Get the Anarch Troublemaker in play early.  Use it on the
turn you expect to finish your prey, or on a turn where it will make a
big enough difference that you can afford to have it used by your
prey.  Optimally, you will play another one on the turn you give it to
your prey to prevent them from using it should they survive your
attack.  Sudden Reversal is key to preventing other decks from
destroying you or your strategy.  Successful Sudden targets included
Minion Taps, Blood Dolls, Fame, and Ventrue Headquarters.

There are too many masters thanks to some last minute card additions.
The Rampage really ought to be an Arson, but Rampage is so much
cooler. I never got to use Destructive Secrets, but I think it would
be quite good in an end game. The deck can wrestle for vote control
with the "I (re)vote my Nos Justicar, it passes easily, Cryptic Rider,
Praxis Seizure" trick. I had fun stealing Living Manse and Palatial
Estate with Disputed Territory. Club Zombie's intercept is meant to be
given to Embraces to block nasty actions, or it's just an expensive
hunting ground. When the deck is up and running well, it tends to lots
of vamps and pool.  Special thanks to Will Kristoff, Nick Smith, and
Mark Loughman for loaning me cards to complete my deck.

The deck is really straightforward: it bleeds it's prey, hopes to

namely the two hunting grounds weren't so useful (minion tap / blood
doll probably better in at least one of those slots) and some other
stuff like finicking with ratios of certain cards.

[Begin Ankur's comments]

The deck name is from an unusually terrifying cereal of the same name. 
A version of this deck was in the Nosferatu Antitribu newsletter from 
March 2004. Peter Bajika and I must share a brain, as he independently 
and simultaneously posted another very similar version of this deck in 
the Nosferatu newsletter in the same month. (This is probably bad, since 
it means I'm vulnerable to employing the Bajika Gambit. . . .) The deck 
is essentially a strong mix of intercept deterrent combat and bleeding 
at stealth.  The mid/end game is strongly affected by the presence of 
the Thuggees, who exist to torpor key minions with low blood (which will
be the case in the mid/end game). All of a sudden, the hit for three with 
the lid is extremely relevant for any deck without prevention. The deck 
truly locks into high gear with a Sabbat prey. A Sabbat predator isn't 
bad either.

Here are some comments on deck construction:

Of the vampires in the crypt I least like Tarbaby Jack, as his special 
isn't of great use to me. I have considered doubling up (or tripling up) 
on virtually every vampire in the crypt aside from Piotr and Ingram, but 
ultimately made no change in order to minimize bad crypt draw. . . . . 
Probably the best choice to replace him is another Kazimir, though Mariano 
Pomposo and Soldat aren't horrible choices either (but you lose the use 
of the Nosferatu Kingdom and the Information Network for these swaps).
Usually, everyone thinks Ingram is the best vampire in the crypt, but 
they just happen to all be wrong. Piotr consistently gains about 16-20 
pool for the deck before he bites it. He is the hoss of all that is 
good and holy, but not worth three copies. You may notice that Peter 
and I share the same crypt. I originally had Korah in place of Quira, 
but once I saw his version of the deck, I decided that Peter made good 
sense on the choice and switched.

I tried to make it an 80 card deck, but in most games, I do a good job 
of using most of the deck, so 90 cards seems to be the lesser of two 
evils -- I'd rather flow cards slightly more poorly than not have cards 
to flow. (Though, incidentally, this logic only works if you're decking 
yourself quite often.) Kaymakli Nightmares and Info Highway were included 
to handle a problem that I often seemed to face with this deck: too much 
free pool in my uncontrolled region. I wanted to access that pool faster 
with these cards. If I happen to draw an early Kaymakli (instead of the 
late draw I'm hoping for), it can really slow down other decks and 
increases the value of the less enabled vampires in the crypt -- Piotr, 
Roger, and the Colonel.

Remover is the most golden card ever. It effectively serves as stealth 
for the Thuggees without using the precious little stealth I have, as 
well as forcing my prey to use wakes. Weeping Stone was the best 
decision I made among the masters. Not sure about the Nosferatu Kingdom, 
though it's probably solid math to keep it. I often have to fish to see 
my second Nosferatu Antitribu, but then again, I fish quite often anyway. 
I guess it makes good use of the extra Ingrams. I'd like to fit in an 
extra Corporeal Reservoir if possible. I considered Perfectionist, but 
this is a deck that not only doesn't necessarily need it, but really 
*really* doesn't want it. I don't want to give anyone any incentive to 
block/deflect anything I do. It's critical that they take the small 
bleeds and let the small bloat through. Momentum's Edge, on the other 
hand, *is* a card that would go quite well in this deck. Perhaps it
is the swap for Nosferatu Kingdom. Dunno, though, since if the deck 
has ousted, it's probably doing just fine, but if it's not, you can 
still gain pool from Nosferatu Kingdom.

I have exactly one Stunt Cycle in the deck, primarily as anti-Ivory 
Bow tech. Never saw the dratted thing all day, and I really really 
wanted it the final -- it would have saved me a trip to torpor. 
Probably not worth a second copy, though, as I'd rather have dependable 
damage most of the time. Aura Reading saved my butt at both levels 
in many games.

Art of Memory is the best card in the whole freaking deck. I ousted 
several times only as a result of this card. It's stealth, combat, 
or actions -- whatever you need most -- that you decide *after* you 
draw into your replacements and see how the attempted action played 
out. Hell, you can even slap them on a bleed for one. They probably 
won't even attempt to block, because they figure you have stealth in 
your hand that you'll just take back and use on the next action. An 
outstanding card. I toyed with adding more, but they might be wasted 
slots. (Jamming on them is unlikely as you can cycle them on anything.) 
I basically want one in my hand, and I pre-emptively use it before my 
hand turns into utter crap and needs to be flushed with Aura Reading 
/ Admonitions.  Incidentally, the timing of getting back Admonitions 
around the table synchs up well with the Arts. I royally screwed up 
the use of the Admonitions in the final, though. (Sorry Will!)

I struggled a lot with the choice of intercept. Six Ministries is 
usually about one too many, but I always want to have one in my hand; 
six Misdirections irritates me, as I feel all sleazy and gooey when I 
bounce. But it's there nonetheless. Ideally, I'd almost like another 
Spirit's Touch for the maneuver, but I can't imagine what I'd drop 
for it. Ministry isn't a good trade, since any chump can use it (today, 
Chump = Teresita or Tarbaby), and is a whole lot of intercept at once. 
I forgot to swap out two Wakes for two Forced Awakenings, which I think 
would have helped me out a couple of times.

Also, I really wanted more stealth in the deck for those situations 
when I'm bleeding a non-Sabbat prey. Adding another Cloak and
another Swallowed (or maybe two Swalloweds to also address the 
Spirit's Touch problem) would satisfy me, I think. Dunno what I
would/could drop for it. Maybe one Kamut for one Swallowed to start 
with, but then the deck would be less capable of bloating
mindlessly and being named after a cereal. ;)

Another interesting solution to my lack of stealth was suggested by 
R. Brian Smith and I think might just work if done well -- 
Derange your prey to make them Sabbat. I have enough Malk Antis in 
the crypt to support such an idea, and it's probably worth it
to slot in 2-3 Deranges in total. The trick is just to find a small 
enough target, since Derange only works on younger vampires.
(Ironically enough, this might justify swapping back to Korah.) 
Even if you can't use it on your immediate prey, if someone is
deranged down the line, it'll be good for you in the end. It has the 
side benefits of:
a) introducing a (D) action that might be directed at you to block,
b) either forcing them to have wakes or burning blood off of vampires 
   (which give the Thuggees more tasty targets), and
c) eliminating dangerous votes from the table.

tournament. The Perfectionists turned out to be incredibly useful (who
woulda thought...), but the last minute inclusion of Specialization
didn't really help much--it would have been better off as, well,
pretty much anything (maybe a Zoning Board to get rid of locations?)

The deck is going to pretty much stay the same as above, although I'm
probably going to take out the Undead Strengths. They usually wind up
being superfluous as I'm already doing 3+ hand damage with Signpost
and 1-2 points from Crows. The Decapitate is usually just in there as
icing, too, so it might move out for something better.

Weaknesses: If my prey is exceedingly ranged-based, then I'm screwed.
I was considering putting in three or four Stunt Cycles to help deal
with decks that prefer to fight from a distance. However, a ranged
deck as my predator is not so bad considering Guard Dogs give me 6
more Maneuvers.

Up-stream Play: A lot of people frown at me when I go upstream in the
early game, but I've found it's key to playing this deck effectively.
One turn spent crippling my predator means I have nearly one oust's-
worth of mostly forward action I can apply to my prey. I've been
trying to teach myself "when enough is enough," but sometimes I've
punched somebody into torpor when I should've just left them at 0
blood. Fight decks aren't just mindless obliteration - rather than a
messy dirty bomb, you have to be a precision tactical nuke.

Anyway, enjoy.

When I went in to the tourney, I was looking for something that would
take advantage of the Boston metagame. I borrowed a deck idea from
Lance Shope, and we discussed how to modify it to make it work in the
environment we anticipated. The delaying tactics and archon
investigation were vital for dealing with the plethora of vote and
bleed decks that day. The deck also had enough bloat that could
survive without any bounce.

Winning deck:

Name: The Guests

Description: Inspired by the Leonard Cohen song "the Guests"... A 
neo-stealth/bleed with a nice twist of gehenna. Get one or two VP's and 
then play Absimilard's Army and wait for a while. If anyone who isn't 
you takes a ghoul, steal it with your merged Sebastian.
Since the numbers of masters are quite low, the Veil of Darkness hits 
everyone else harder than you.

The deck was designed for a more bleedy atmoshpere than this
tournament turned out to be.  Even so, it held up well.  Lots of cool,
permanent resources, and a nice assortment of previously proven
cards.  Nothing ground-breaking here.  We already knew that the
Erciyes Fragment is good; add the fact that Beefcake can play many
of the most popular tournament skills, and it gets really strong.   
I think this is my first tournament winning deck to use dominate.  
It took several showers before I felt clean following this win :)

Deck Name:   the Trickstars
Created By:  tom
Description: This deck was inspired by not a few comments on this newsgroup
about how anthelios can be abused. Decided to build and paly this deck on
saturday at friday's evening, and built it at 6 in the morning once I
arrived home after a few drinks with some friends. Some cards were missing,
somehow I lost the Art of Love and not a few events should go in, but I
wanted to play it in order to see if, for one time, the theory matches
reality. Will rewrite it this week, as definitely some form of permanent
bleed is necessary.

the point is: with anthelios in play, you can add casual but definitive
master cards that won't be needed each game but that will be a nice addition
in an attrition deck like this. Cards that forgot to include (but obviously
are a must) are Cultivated blood shortage, a sudden, a direct intervention
and vox domini, and obviously downgrade the number of card to 75. Some other
events are to go in, like the slow withering and blood weakens, just to
increase the effect of Wormwood.

prevention, and other assorted toolboxy goodness.

Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name:   Call me Julio
Created By:  Matt Morgan
Description: POT/DOM is always good.  Let's add permanent rush, +strength, 
Nosferatu Kingdom and a bad attitude!

Crypt: (12 cards, Min: 20, Max: 37, Avg: 7.33)
----------------------------------------------
1  Agatha                      obf POT 4, smash for cheap!
1  Beast               ani     OBF POT 7, rush, +1 strength
1  Cailean             ANI dom OBF POT 10, Archbishop, set range
3  Julio Martinez      ANI DOM OBF POT 9, Bishop, +1 strength, int sp
1  Mateusz Gryzbowsky  ANI     OBF POT 8, +2 strength
1  Nigel the Shunned   ANI     obf POT 5, bad little dude
1  Olivia                      OBF POT 5, Bishop
1  Ox                  ANI     OBF POT 6
2  Tarbaby Jack        ANI dom OBF POT 8, Black Hand, +1 transfer

You can see from the crypt that an important part of playing this deck 
is being incredibly lucky.  I drew Beast in three out of four games and 
I drew Julio in every one.  How'd I get so lucky?  Dunno, I got a horrible 
crypt draw in a casual game on Friday.

Library: (90 cards)
-------------------
Master (13 cards)
4  Blood Doll

--Not enough unless you're lucky (like I was).

2  Dominate

--Didn't really use them, but they were supposed to justify the crypt 
spread.  If there's no Julio, a Tarbaby or Cailean and a Dominate master 
is nearly as good, right?

1  Dreams of the Sphinx
2  Fame
1  Information Network

--Played it, but never tapped it.

2  Nosferatu Kingdom

--Absolutely essential.  Always got one after the other, though.

1  Shanty Town Hunting Ground

Action (12 cards)
6  Bum's Rush
6  Govern the Unaligned

--Almost always played superior.

Action Modifier (4 cards)
4  Conditioning

--Because Colin said it was a good idea (he's right).

Reaction (15 cards)
8  Deflection
7  Wake with Evening's Freshness

--Replace one with Mylan Horseed as soon as Gehenna is legal.

Combat (42 cards)
3  Behind You!
4  Carrion Crows
10 Immortal Grapple
6  Taste of Vitae
10 Torn Signpost
9  Undead Strength

Combo (4 cards)
4  Swallowed by the Night

I've discussed some of the combat above and in other threads.  
In many ways, it's your basic Potence package.  The key is the guys with 
+strength.  The first time they beat someone down, they'll need a few 
cards (or a lot of cards) to do so.  After that, a Grapple might not 
even be necessary.  Pure goodness.

An earlier version of the deck used Guardian Angels to avoid agg pokes 
and similar, but I took them out of the final version reasoning that most 
of the combat I see in tournaments is potence combat or guns and also that 
considering the expense of my minions, my masters should gain me pool, not 
cost pool.  I also had some Gang Tactics in an earlier version just because 
I think the art on them is hysterical and they're kind of useful.  
They were ultimately dropped for maneuvers because it seems more useful to 
me to be able to hold the maneuvers and play them in combat as needed than 
it is to assume I'll want close range on a certain action.  Now that I've 
won a tournament with this deck, I might put them back in just for fun.

--------------- 

highlights:
-Moving the retainers around with Heidelberg Castle.
It can provide multiple plus bleeds, and multiple rushes
with Stone Dog and Razor Bats.
-Darning the Dawn and not going to torpor with Armor of Terra.
-Multiple Blood Dolls on Muaziz + Disarm/Bow Gargoyle combat
+ Muaziz unchecked Diablerie = pool.
-Evoking the Slave rule when Muaziz gets blocked.
-Saying "Ublo-Satha" in Jabba the Hut voice all day long.

----------------- 

Thanks to Corey Brindley for some deck testing advice.
Charnas the Imp should have been in the deck, but I forgot about him.
Also, when Gehenna becomes legal, some of the damage prevention
will change to Soak because of its synergy with Armor of Terra.

For those interested: I didn't PTO a single vampire in any of me 4
games :D

It plays fairly simple. Get out a justicar quickly, parity shift to
recover, bring out Arika or Leandro. Tap him, and start bleeding. In
essention it kills by bleeding, but the votes allow you an enourmous
impact on the table. I never got more then 3 points with this deck, so
in the future I would add more ousting power.

Deck Name: Thrown Junk & Sexy Tricks (TM)
Created By: Izaak Havelaar
Description: Decklist for "Vendetta", april 18, Utrecht

This deck doesn't really need a lot of description; it's full forward
motion CEL/pot combat with a few sexy tricks (credit goes to Peter
Bakija). It has decent bloat and small minions, so having 4 or 5 out
is not uncommon. Bleeding for 4-5 a turn is something very few decks
can deal with, so it ousts fairly fast as well.

Since some people asked why I added that last part to the name, so here it is:
Sexy Trick #1: The Waste Management Operation / Al's Army Apparatus shuffle tech
Sexy Trick #2: The lone Contract
Sexy Trick #3: The Fast Hands

Anyway, here's the decklist. There's not much new tech in here but for some 
concerted effort to keep blood on my vampires. I've found that the Hungry 
Coyote is close to miraculous for keeping alive if you feel you have to 
turtle up for a little while,and it's usually a turn well spent hunting 
with the HC around to recoup some blood spent on Dominate bleeds.

Possible improvements:

Drop one Kassiym from an extra copy of Banjoko, add an extra Path 
and reduce the number of Stone Travels for some extra combat defence. 
Maybe drop the prayer cards (Dramatic Upheaval, Graverobbing) and try 
to find some more Shroud of Absence... As it is, though, the deck 
performs well and cycles beautifully. True combat as a predator will 
likely crunch it, but true combat has to go upstream heavily or it won't 
survive, so you may be able to just sit it out for a while until 
the coast is clear.

Deck Name:   Moncada's Army
Created By:  Trey Morita
Description: Lasombra votey-bleedy stuff. Always get your
biggest vampire first (yes, that's usually Moncada) and use
superior Governs to hoist the rest of the crypt up. You can
get away with having no wakes because of the Creation Rites
babies who sit around untapped with Dominate and Moncada's
special ability. The Fortitude masters are for the real
vampires, not the babies (I don't actually expect to make
more than 4 babies tops so that's why only 4 Dom masters)
but they could probably be replaced by Bewitching Orations
or Voter Captivations or anything else useful. Maybe D.I.
for those cursed Protect Thine Owns.

Tournament Winning Deck

Little Sister 
by Keiko Düring
played by Sten Düring

Description: 	This deck is actually not my own. I forgot to bring 
a deck to a tournament and borrowed this one.  The primary creator is 
my little sister, Keiko Düring, and after that the deck has been heavily 
modified by her boyfriend, Max Widen, Beatrice  Düring, my wife, and myself.

Bleed, rush, beat the crap out of anything that stands in the way and 
pray that you don't encounter aggravated damage.

The deck has a surprisingly powerful bloat-engine as well - something 
that is much needed as it intercepts very little and bounces not at all.

Here is the winning deck, a Tremere bruise & bleed deck, played by
Kimmo Koivisto, Feminine Magic. v.1.3.

Deck Name: Feminine Magic v1.3
Created By: Kimmo Koivisto
Description: Rather straightforward Thaumaturgy bruise & Dominate
bleed. One last minute change proved to be immensely beneficial,
I'd actually tribute my two out of three GW's in last tournament
solely to the decision on adding the Pentex Subversion to the deck.
The deck still contains some 'testing material', like single
Graverobbing, Blood to Water and Obedience cards which probably will
be changed in the next revision.

Name: Ruptura Interior
Author: Alex Ek

Description: A derange deck that has been in my mind since the new
reword on derange. I finally got all the deranges I needed and I put
it together and played it on our february tourney here in gothenburg.
It took 1 gw and 7.5 vp in the qualifying rounds in a 19 people
tourney, it then took the gw with 3 vp's in the final round.
Combating Cailean: block/kill, Giovanni: pot/rush, Setite:
sb/enticement and Etrius: powerbleed.
The idea is to take it easy, try to be friendly even if you put
Leandro in play. Play deranges and wait for the right movement. When
a majority of the table is turning malk. Then steal the vamps. Minion
tap them, Golconda them, Burn them with PTO and prevent them from
killing you with obedience. Use all the broken cards you can think of
and win. It requires a great deal of thinking and some dealing but
it always takes vp and it usually takes gw's too.

the basic idea is somewhat responsible sneak and bleed with slightly
more defense than an all out S&B; deck might have, since they're all
mid-cap vampires. Le Dinh Tho (i'd add a third of him if i owned
another) takes the first action every turn to get rid of deflections,
wake, intercept and other nastiness. get at least little obf on him if
you can to make sure he can get his inherent action off. additionally,
the change of targets and spying missions are there to make sure you
don't bleed your grandprey too much. CoT is also good for drawing out
wakes from your prey. I'd replace the dodges with absorb the minds if
i owned them, since everyone in the crypt has dom. i'd also
consider putting in a fragment of the book of nod. i stole one during
one game and it really helped card flow. the kindred restructure is a
prayer card and might be better as a dramatic upheaval so anyone could play it.
 
that's mostly it. govern down for pool gain and more minions,
especially early. the more actions you can take, the better. have fun!

The winning deck:

Deckname: Pochtli Twister
Created by: Ben Peal
Description: I was wondering about building a deck that was less than
60 cards - and padding it out with burn option cards - to see if there
was potential for abuse (withdrawal excepted). At least from this
experiment, there's no abuse to be found, but it's a fun deck to play.
The Tracker's Marks were specifically chosen because they're red and
thereby easy to spot in your hand, helping you to not forget to
discard during other players' untap phases. I strongly suggest
making room for a third Telepathic Counter. The idea for the deck
comes from a deck (called Pochtli Twister) built by one of our local
guys - Keith Page - a couple years ago, before Bloodlines was
released. He stopped playing a while back, but I figured I'd revive
the idea.

Tournament Winning Deck

Deck Name: Uglier Jack
Created By: John Flournoy
Comments: A very slight tweak to my Ugly Jack deck featured in the
!Nos newsletter a few months back. I swapped out Calebos for a second
Teresita and Unburdening the Bestial Soul for Anachronism, which went
in mainly to deal with the pair of players (if not more) I correctly
guessed would be playing with Assault Rifles. Never played it, but I
was gratified that I had guessed the meta-game correctly. I had meant
to swap out Tock for Nigel the Shunned and forgot to. Picked up 3 GW
and 9 VP, then won the finals with a lot of luck in the timing.

Created By: Erik Torstensson
Description: Doesn´t like weenies or rushes, but when Arika performs
4+ actions on her first turn, the table swings to your advantage.
Hidden strength is good vs Aid/Carrion, Trap, Grapple and can even be
used offensivly in late game. Cloaks are good for stolen minions. PTO
worked fine, but wasn´t gamewinning. You can get votes by robbing
other titles, if needed.

Tournament Winning Deck


Deck Name:   Rachel Brandyclaws
Created By:  Matt Morgan
Description: Stealth bleed with Protean for combat defense/offense. 
Bleed for 2 or 3 at stealth.  Use Form of Mist to minimize bounce
potential.  Rotschreck rushers and odds are they won't rush again
soon.

Crypt: (12 cards, Min: 22, Max: 40, Avg: 7.67)
----------------------------------------------
1 Colonel AUS dem obf 5,!Malkavian:3
1 Dolphin Black AUS DEM OBF 6,!Malkavian:2
1 General Perfidio Dios AUS dem obf 5,!Malkavian:3, Bishop
1 Kite AUS DEM obf 7, !Malkavian:2,Bishop
1 Korah AUS DEM OBF 7, !Malkavian:2,Priscus
4 Rachel Brandywine AUS DEM OBF PRO 10,Malkavian:3, Prince
2 Rodolfo AUS DEM OBF pro 8,!Malkavian:3, Bishop
1 Tony AUS DEM obf 6,Malkavian:3

Never saw Kite or Dolphin Black, but Tony showed up in every game, I
think.  I originally had only 3 Rachels and 1 Imogen (the only other
Malk/!Malk with protean & dementation), but ultimately decided to drop
the crappy Imogen for a 4th Rachel, improving my chances of drawing
her.

Library: (90 cards)
-------------------
Master (16 cards)
1  Asylum Hunting Ground
4  Blood Doll
3  Dreams of the Sphinx
1  Giant's Blood
1  Institution Hunting Ground
3  Protean
2  Rotschreck
1  Sudden Reversal

Never used the hunting grounds.  My Blood Dolls always clumped (had
them  all early in the first round, but never saw them in the finals).
The skill cards came in handy, Sudden less so.  I managed a Giant's
Blood on empty Rachel in round 1, but wasn't able to use it in later
rounds (usually because someone else beat me to it).

I Rotschrecked Tzimisce a few times, which gave me a real sense of
satisfaction. :)

The Dreams are absolutely essential.  Combined with Rachel's ability,
they're just amazing.  I also got them early enough the final to have
Rachel on turn two.  If I hadn't had that many Dreams, I would've
probably not gotten a single VP all day as I would've been hand-jammed
nearly all the time.

Action (18 cards)
1  Blessing of Chaos
4  Call, The
3  Derange
9  Kindred Spirits
1  Restructure

Blessing of Chaos and Restructure were prayer cards, but Blessing
enabled me to oust Josh very early in the finals as he couldn't play
Voter Captivation.  I managed to Restructure a War Ghoul in round 3. 
That ended up being the round I lost, but the War Ghoul was
instrumental in helping me oust my first prey.

The utility of Kindred Spirits goes without saying.  The pool gain
from them kept me alive as I was almost never blocked.  I considered
adding more The Call, but four of them turned out very well as I
consistently drew them when I wanted them.

The three Deranges (all I own) ended up being only a minor annoyance
as there weren't an titled vamps for me to change sects on and most
people didn't bother trying to move the Deranges around.

Action Modifier (22 cards)
4  Cloak the Gathering
6  Eyes of Chaos
4  Faceless Night
4  Lost in Crowds
4  Spying Mission

Six Eyes of Chaos proved to be a very good number and gave me fairly
consistent good bleed without jamming my hand on modifiers.  The rest
of the stealth (18 cards counting the Swalloweds) were pretty good.  I
was able to sneak past wall decks on occasion.  I never used Spying
Mission for "responsible bleeding" because most of the time when I was
bounced, I ended up ousting my prey soon enough anyway and it was good
to have my next prey softened up.

Political Action (1 cards)
1  Parity Shift

Never had a good opportunity for it, but I think it's good in theory.

Reaction (13 cards)
7  Telepathic Misdirection
6  Wake with Evening's Freshness

Seems like it might not be enough, considering my vampires are huge,
but the Dreams cycling and Kindred Spirits pool gain compensates well
enough.

Combat (16 cards)
6  Claws of the Dead
4  Flesh of Marble
6  Form of Mist

I was expecting more combat and this proved to be too much, but again
the Dreams cycling saved me again.  The Forms of Mist were great for
getting past Eternally Vigilant Cailean or just for tapping a blocker.
 Better than pain "responsible bleeding," this card helped my bleeds
hit their target.

The Flesh of Marble helped out a lot when I was getting rushed by a
War Ghoul in round two.

Combo (4 cards)
4  Swallowed by the Night

Mostly used for stealth.  I maneuvered a couple times just to cycle
them.

The whole vote deck module thing seems to be working. The Gathers
worked well, the Zillah's were quite bad in this deck due to Ingrid's
special ability. They would be better as Dreams to give a bit of
acceleration in the early game and see more of the deck as the game
progresses.

add in a few more Restorations. Legendary vampire is really a great
card for this deck.

play style be patient gain pool influence minions and 
stay in the background there has to be always a bigger 
threat on the table.  try to burn vamps with the society

Deck Name:   Anatole joins the Force 
Created By:  sg3kmb613sdf5gr / Henrik Ericsson
Description: This deck is all about our dear prophet Anatole 
becoming a police officer, and trying to advance in the ranks. 

Anatole is up with the top ten vampires, along with Anneke, 
Howler and Silvia Giovanni. When he joins the Police Force 
and gets an Assault Rifle and Flak Jacket, he has loads of 
authority. He can also do the polisgrepp (Chiram's Hold) to 
make sure that the one's he busts stays calm. 

A nice table control deck with eight Eagle's Sight can't be wrong... 
All you need to do is to decide which players you can afford to lose 
and which you can give VP's to. Then just look at your top five cards, 
shuffle them and play.

Description: !toreador module with Tzimisce supportto develope a quiet
game while bloating and hitting with the WG. As I have said the deck
could be defined as a bloat deck with high bleeding potential while is
the time. Defend your ground, generate pool and play as many minions
and whever prepared offer Paella for everyone!, The potato omelette
will send whoever who tries to interdict to torpor... .

midcaps eat if hungry)
1 Hungry Coyote (after the tournament I have decided that the Jakes
are enough for this and that my minions have always better actions to
do rather than hunt. I would change it for a Pentex "anti helena/Lucas
halton/..." Subversion)
4 Palla Grande
1 The Art of Pain
2 Blood Doll
1 Direct Intervention
2 Vicissitude
1 Anarch troublemaker
 
Action 24

rescuing from torpor/eating alive/rush walls)
9 Art Scam
9 Enchant Kindred
3 Entrancement (To defend my omelettes, for bleeding or for an
extrarecruitment if ever able, this card is so great)
5 The Summoning (key, essential, If you summon a WG and the action is
blocked you don't lose the Meat machine so you could try it later, and
it also multiplies the number of getting a WG from my library)
 
Action Modifiers 12

6 Change of Target (for the embraces aswell and the Ghouls if an evil
killer vamps untaps suddenly while attacking)

Tournament Winning Deck by Ben Peal

Deck Name:   The Stay-Puft Marshmallow Deck
Created By:  Ben Peal
Description: Based on Ethan Burrow's prototype, which used Hungry Coyote and 
the Sabbat trifle, except that I didn't have any Hungry Coyotes, so I choose 
the Anarch route.  Hesha is the deck's star player, helping you bloat for 2 
or 3 per turn.  Greta and Jost Enchant down and handle the bulk of the auspex 
defense.  Try to give Kyoko the Unlicensed Taxicab if you can so that she can 
hunt for extra blood (via Hospital Food) at +2 stealth.  Important: save the 
Direct Interventions for Dramatic Upheaval, Kindred Restructure, and Protect 
Thine Own.  Props to Andreas Nusser for suggeting Form of Corruption - 
it causes your prey to slow down and not get away from you while you're 
building up.

This won me a 12 player tournament on the 9th of August 2003 (AP League
round 1), held in Blacktown, Sydney. 3 rounds plus final. 1 GW and 6
vps had me ranked 2nd going into the finals. I'd only seen 2 of the
other 4 decks during the prelims, and so i chose to sit between the
two unknowns (well, i sat as the predator of the deck i had heard was
a setite dominate stealth bleed, so it wasn't totally unknown). Marty
(1st going into the finals with a Kiasyd bleed deck) sat as my grand
predator. In the final i got 4vps and the GW. Marty got the other vp.

Since the library has practically no cards that give additional votes
(except the Elysium) it is essential to get as many votes into play as
possible - with big Minion Taps it's not uncommon at all to have 8-9
votes in the late game (Harrod, Nikolaus, Sheldon, e.g.), which is
usually enough to pass a referendum. In combat, the deck relies
heavily on maneuvers gained from Thrown Gates and Swallowed by the
Nights. In case the opponent seems to be able to handle long-range
combat as well, the deck has some light damage-prevention. In general,
though, it is best not to block actions/bleeds from combat-heavy
decks, but rather to try to bloat quickly with Minion Taps and Parity
Shifts.

The deck placed second in Crusade: Helsinki IV, and first in Crusade:
Helsinki V

Deck Name: 'Yojimbo' 
Created by: Rob Treasure

Description: Get out a couple of minis and Karsh then go to town. Hit
predator hard if needed then watch the table carefully and pick your
targets, use your rushes wisely and get a cannon as soon as possible
to give you options and to conserve combat cards if you need to. Save
Beast Meld to get a Rifle or to guarantee downing a primary target if
you already have one.

Deck gets trucking on only 12-13 expenditure and really kicks-off
after you have a piece. Use Karsh's in-built rush to cycle into
essential cards and don't worry too much about losing the one point
buddies. Bleeding the Vine won me a round and Secure Haven the final,
they are essential tech. Bleeding the Vine is an amazingly powerful
card.

I think in hindsight I might try and find room for one more rush and
one more Freak, deck is tight though. Built first to take down other
combat decks, it seems to handle tourneys quite nicely as well. I had
a great time torporing waves of minions with it. Karsh is a madman.
That is all.

This deck originally contained an Erichtho instead of Kij, a Rumor Mill 
instead of the 2nd Pentex Subversion, and a Redirection instead of the 
2nd Magic of the Smith.  Each of these was changed the night before the 
tournament, and each was important in one game or another.  I came to 
PRAISE Pentex throughout the tournament--especially in the finals when 
I used it as a 2 pool Misdirection to screw my prey's Sheila Mezarin and 
unload a hand full of bleed on poor Forrest for the oust.  My strategy in 
seating was to sit opposite Jay, because experience has shown him to be 
a good cross table ally, and indeed without his help (read: Powerbase) 
I would very likely have been ousted. 

Since Jay and I had identical records going into the final round 
(8vp 2tw 2nd place), LSJ had to flip a coin to determine our rank--so, 
I am this year's winner because I called "heads".  Clearly Jay Kristoff 
is an excellent player and deserves this title every bit as much as I.

Deck Name: Fairies 'R Us
Created by: Carol O'Bryan, Golden, CO

This is basically an all-around sneak & bleed but bash 'em if they block you
deck.  On the first round, I worked all the way through my cards two turns
before the end of the game, so it's a good thing I decided to throw in enough
cards to bring the deck to 90.  The final saw me entombing the majority of my
predator's vamps and sneaking through the defenses of my prey to eventually
pump a bleed and take him out.  One thing I'd do to make it more effective
would be to put in another Tension or two, and to figure out some way to handle
the immortal grapple decks a wee bit better.

Notes:

The deck is called "Gentleness" based on my Jyhad philosophy that 
goes, "The gentle Methuselah is the successful Methuselah". The deck 
is "gentle" because it comes out slowly and lets the game develop 
around it. Much like Jay plays most of the time. Combat is based 
around Silvia blowing beads off of less-combat capable vampires. Zack 
and Chester are backups who provide crypt-draw variety. It "cheats" 
in terms of combat in that it uses Skin of Steel for protection only 
in the basic. This is bad for two reasons. One, I normally am weak 
against celerity combat. Two, I can't use SoS when Silvia or others 
are empty. Hence, the Giant's Blood and Tastes.

Well, the cards were chosen out of neccessity, since I do not have the
extensive card collections SOME people have *Glares at Brian*. The
basic strategy was to intercept as many actions from my prey as I
could, then bleed the snot out of them when he is tapped out,
preferably using someone with Pulse of the Canaille on them. Should
my prey still have blockers when it happens to be my turn, that is
were the Strike: Combat Ends combat cards help out, as well as when
everybody decides I need to leave the table, and start salmon swimming
towards me. If I had the cards that I would have prefered in the
deck, I would have swapped out the Putreficatioins for Majesties, but
I only had 4 of them, and Putrefications did work (I guess no one uses
them for the Presence ability but me). I would have also added Eagle's
Sight, to intercept annoying votes that wasn't called by my Pred/Prey.

I had alot of luck during the Tournament, being able to get Jost in
the 1st four on three of the four matches, so he happened to be my big
bad bleeder, as well as having a combat deck as my predator the
majority of times, which helped me out since I was able to draw my
S:CE cards as they drew Rushes and the like. All in all, I really do
not have many complaints about my own deck, since it did work
according to my plans. I guess I could complain about the fact that
the crypt capacity average was higher than I wished it to be, but
looking at the Elder Library database, there wasn't many I wished to
add. Sometimes the deck wasn't cycling cards fast enough, but that is
something that could have been remedied at the time.

Timing is key for this deck.  Park the Week under a Storage Annex until
the time is right.  Bleed lightly but consistently during the early and
midgame.  I tend to play recklessly and get out the fourth minion the turn
before I plan to pop the Week.  By then, you ought to have a few +1 bleed
toys in play, and I have reliably hit one-turn bleeds of 12-16.  Gabrin's
"other white meat" special, Nightmare Curses, and Red Herrings are very
useful for getting your prey's minions all tapped out just prior to the
wave of death.  There's no hit back to the deck, but most people expect it
from the Ravnos, so work this early game on tables that don't know your
deck.  You do have thirteen cards of "you can't touch this", though, so
don't be too afraid of blocking or being rushed (grapple is, of course, a
bitch).

Tournament report Summer Dawning in Gothenburg
Date:           2003-06-07 (june 07)
Location:       Gothenburg, Sweden
Participants:   10
Type:           VEKN sanctioned standard constructed

The winning deck:

Author: Sten During
Name: Spying Mission

Description: Obfuscate bleeder based on Spying Mission with some
bleed and combatdefence.
A rather hefty bloatenginge for this type of deck.
Play this and get rushed. A bleeder is a bleeder even if it looks
a bit different from the standard ones, and as such it is really
awfully boring to play. Tap out with everything unless a deflection
isn't paired with a wake.

Deck Name:   Brick in a sock
Created by:  Rob Treasure
  
Description: Ummmm... pretty obvious bleed or rush with lots of Pot
minions. Use Computer Hacks to force blocks or bleed for steady twos.
Bring back diab'ed minions with Hand of Conrad. Use Tributes as soon
as you get them, don't be afraid to Tribute to empty cos most of
minions can use Hungry Coyote when you get it to fill back up. Change
of Targets draw out wakes etc and make the deck a tiny bit faster and
much more annoying by adding to the total number of actions possible.
Ivory Bow is in mainly to contest because its about the most common
'worst single thing' you can come across and is pretty useful on its
own. Two non-pot Sabbat weenies are there to make up numbers, would do
without and go down to twelve but have run out of crypt a few times
which is no fun.

Also was a bit of an experiment on a few different levels. Has put my
mind to rest that a weenie pot Sabbat Embrace is indeed missed deck
opportunity #23 **sigh**

Wanted to try a version with a lot of solid masters and it worked
pretty well - what you lose in cycling you more than make up for in
pool gain so that works for me. A lot of the masters (18 assuming a
minion is out) are playable 'out of the box' so you don't often have
them sat in your hand... which is nice.

A goodly amount of pool gen for a Pot deck and two AI's coupled with
numbers backrushTM makes for a pretty resilient Pot horde that keeps
on coming.
  
Anyway enough crap here is 'Brick in a sock'

Deck Name: Anarch Revolt (Mixed Clans)
Created By: Kevin J. Wiebe, Prince of Edmonton
Description: This Anarch Revolt deck is extremely nasty and
aggressive. The key to its success is to get The Parthenon, Anson,
and Rumors of Gehenna into play as soon as possible. With them in
play, you will have 3 master phase actions and be able to quickly use
the many master cards that are in this deck. This deck will make all
players lose pool every turn. And with the many Dominate bleed cards,
along with Misdirection, Seduction, and The Sleeping Mind, you will be
able to bleed your prey and ensure that he or she is the first player
to be ousted.

Winning Deck: Orgy of Flesh - Breathe Harder Remix
Created By: Ethan Burrow
Description: This deck is a modification to the Orgy of Flesh Palla
Grande/Vic deck. This adds the combat module used in Bow Down Before
Matteus, specifically the Breath of the Dragon and Rotschreck. Ideally
you focus on creating Creation Rites vampires with vic, and then they
either bleed when the Palla Grande is out, or Art Scam when it's not.
Non vic vampires do maintenence actions or get bleed defense duty. 
Newly created Creation Rites can use Breath/Rotschreck to deter pesky 
actions against you. Always influence out a titled vampire first, as 
without the additional minions this deck might stall. With a titled 
vampire out, the deck starts to roll almost immediately if the 
Creation Rites are not blocked.

Andrew 'Wes' Weston's Tournament Winning Deck

Here's the deck. It started out as an exact duplicate of one of "The
Lasombra's" decks called "In the Presence of the Lasombra" but was 
quite a bit different after some last-minute tweaks. And it could use 
a lot more frankly. I still contend that this deck is not that 
fantastic. I welcome any comments, and if people are interested, I 
will reveal what changes I think should be made based on all the hand 
jam I was getting all day.

Deck Name: Lasombra Governing 
Created By: Jeffrey Thompson AKA The Lasombra 
Description: This deck won the War Party: Charleston, South Carolina
tournament on April 26th, 2003. There were 14 players, two rounds and
a final. This deck took game wins all three rounds. 

The deck was designed to get out a larger Lasombra with superior
dominate, who would then use Govern the Unaligned and Scouting Mission
to bring out the other vampires in the crypt. I always got at least
one vampire for free this way. 

This deck was the Lasombra Commons deck that I won a tournament in Los
Angeles with a few years ago, but that got bumped up to 89 cards where
the original was 73 cards. There was also supposed to be a hunting
ground in the deck, but I forgot to add it in. 

In the Charleston event, I took 4vp, 2.5 vp, and then 3 vp in the
finals.

Deck Name: Lies and Obfuscations (aka Your Government)
Created By: Neil Paananen
Description: Use the PRE obf vamps to call charming lobbies with 
bewitching orations and voter caps. Use the obf vamps to call the 
next vote, or piggyback another charming lobby with a pre obf vamp. 
Get permanent votes as quickly as possible. Generally don't bother 
blocking, as you shouldl be gaining a lot during your turn.

The Protected Resources should help a lot, however I found I often 
had to burn them to get the edge or to bleed because I didn't have 
votes or my votes wouldn't have passed. So obviously the deck needs 
some work, particularly with the new voting system of the Anarch set.

Hugh Angseesing's Gangrel Deck:
Bath April 5th 2003: Blood Bath Tourney
"Camille & Raven's Royal Bash"

This deck is based upon a deck I used to play before NRA rules were
introduced. When DS was first released force of will added to freak 
drive, day operation, movement of the slow body & a rapid healing or 
two, was just insane. To compensate for the "limited" number of bleed 
actions being performed, some of the rapid healing/Force of wills 
have been replaced by dominate cards.

Deck Name: Garou by Night 
Created By: David 'Metropolis' Wilson 
Description: Anyone who says Garou are not worth 5 pool haven't seen 
this deck. This deck has played in tournaments all over North 
America, its earliest viable version can be found on Seattle's 
Qualifier page for 2002. A constant work in progress that began to 
show people that memories was broken, but it isn't as I have proven 
to myself. Drop the suddens, put in DI, add more delaying, Ancilla 
Empowerment can do 15 damage to you no problem in this deck so 
BEWARE!! Good luck, if you play the deck or want advice on how to, 
let me know, it isn't as easy as it looks, you can kill yourself very 
very quickly. Great Lakes Qualifier was 45 people. doros@umich.edu

...this was an evolution of the mid 70 card version i included in the
Great Beast *ahem* newsletter but found that i kept running out of
cards. Boosted the defence and bloat side of the deck and it seemed to
flow well in the 2nd and 3rd rounds, only stuttering in the final and
the first round (when bleeding James and his Mobile Intercept
Vehicle...:)
Still managed 3GW and 11VP in total on the day, so not tooooo shabby for
a Baali deck....(chortle)

Here's Marco's winning deck:

Winner Deck by Marco La Valle

''Mr. Majestic''

A horde of  small cap vampires with PRE relentlessly bleed and vote,
taking multiple actions in the same turn. Charming lobby, awe and
bewitching orations provide huge amount of votes, and voter
captivations replenish your vampires, so allowing unlimited use of
superior Majesty. Expect everybody at the table to turn against you:
which is good, since you will cycle even faster through your library!
This deck will be completely shut down by Atonement, so use your
Hostile Takeover judiciously (a second one will be necessary, when
this list will be made public).

Type: VEKN sanctioned constructed

Name: Die Kuchenfrau goes mad
Author: Erik Torstensson

Description: someone has stolen rachel´s sneakers (or something).
Probably your prey. She wants it back. By killing. Bleed, oust, win. 
Victoria is "great" with the network, which is broken. Earth meld is
broken too. Add some candy just for fun like Sniper Rifle, Ivory Bow 
and Aarons Feeding Razor. You don´t need the madness network / 
homonolucus combo to win, though it make things more easy. Cards that 
also would fit in are probably gigants blood and Curse of Nitocris.
Muddled vampire hunter is great to make players leave the network 
alone, one more would be good. The only problem for this deck is 
immortal grapple, but no one ever plays it around here so... in an 
more grappling environment I would add Claws of the Dead and 
Rötschreck. Or some more Sniper Rifles.

Deck Notes: 

Lazverinus is the star of the show. His job is to take out opposing
minions using multi-rush/freak drive to do multiple actions per turn
for lots of damage and rapid card cycling. This clears the way for the
support team to bleed my prey.

With Laz's +2 Strength I can have a combat deck with very few
do-damage cards (only 7) and focus more on picking fights, surviving
them, and beating combat defense. Lazverinus isn't stopped by
Obedience and Grapple-punch for 3-press-punch for 3 again takes most
minions down.

The deck had great flow and played very well on Sat. 

Another things I like about this deck is that I finally found a way to
get Political Ally to work.

Winning deck by Dan Keller


Dan Keller of Washington, DC was declared the winner with 1.5 victory
points in the Finals of the Baltimore Purge VTES Tournament February 8,
2003. The game went to time after 16-turns. Survivors of the final
(in order) with 0.5 VPs each, were: Jason Babbit of Manassas, VA; Greg
Williams of Elkton, MD; and Blake Stewart of Hanover, MD. Josh Duffin
of Bethesda, MD made an early exit (ouch!) in the finals after
finishing the preliminaries with the highest ranking. 

The tournament was held at Games and Comics…and Stuff in Beautiful
Downtown Glen Burnie, MD. Fifteen Methuselahs came from Virginia,
Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Washington, D.C. to play and grab a copy of
the Wind Dance promo card.

Comments: I created this deck in response to the growing regularity of
guns in our local (Washington, DC) play environment. The Thrown Gates
were a recent addition to the deck, and I found during the course of
play that the DOtBs were pretty much useless when I could strike at
long range. So I will probably dump the DOtB's. Patagia will probably
go too.

Notes:

DO NOT SCARE THE TABLE... if at all convenient.

Get out Arika... burn people for fun and profit.
Profit is Minion Tap/Voter Cap. Use the Governs
to bring out friends for Arika. Relies on Zillah's
to outrun Combat Decks to a vampire, who can then be
burned with PTO, and fails utterly to weenie combat,
fast big combat, Camarilla combat, and any of the same
if it's bleed.

This deck came into being preNERFing of 5th Tradition.
I put it together to see if I could still get big
vamp bloat to work. I managed to guess the local
metagame to a T on the sect issues required to play
the deck. Only one deck I saw was all Camarilla.

Changes: Some GtU to Mind Rape, 3 Lucinde 2 Vitel
lots more combat D/bleed D depending on metagame.
I've added all the Awe's I own, more may be good.

  It's hardly the most original deck - it's based on Colin Riggs'
  winning deck from a recent DC tournament.  I just didn't like 
  the fact that its only defensive option is to go upstream, so
  I dropped a few Bum's Rushes and the Computer Hackings and
  Arsons, and put in some wakes, bleed bounce/reduction, and light
  intercept.  It didn't run very consistently, and I think 9 or 10
  guns and 9 or 10 Concealed Weapons may be the way to go, as I
  had some difficulty getting a gun early on in a couple games.
  Some of the consistency problems were likely the result of the
  increased number of fight decks and reduced number of bleed decks,
  reducing the effectiveness of the defense.  The intercept did
  prove to be quite handy.

  Here's Colin Riggs' deck, for comparison:

  Thank to all who showed up!  It was great to see the turnout!

Description: Camarilla Edition version of an older tournament winner
based on Toreadors with Obfuscate.

Disguise out big guns, block and torporize while tasting back blood 
for later bloat. The deck is very expensive to play so Parity Shift 
with a couple of token stealth-cards is there to help you get back in 
business. There's just enough rush to keep players wary of you, but 
count on having to spend at least three turns doing nothing while 
bloating.

Tournament Winning Deck
Crusade: Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
December 14, 2002
10 players

On 12/14/2002 Ira Fay hosted Crusade: Pittsburgh.  Ten methusulaths
participated (Twice the number of participants in Ira's June 2001
tournament).  Most of the players were locals, with travelers John 
and Tom Mickle (from central PA), and myself (Jay from Columbus OH).
    After two rounds and a final, my weenie Auspex deck came out on top.  
If anyone who was there wants to recap some of the events of the day; 
please do.  For now I'll just post the deck.

    This deck is based on Jason Dawson's (of Seattle) weenie Auspex deck. 
It has been Jay-ified, however.  This deck won a four player tournament 
in Lansing MI in late October of 2002.  I waited to post it until it won 
at a larger (10 player) event :)  The Sniper Rifles are great against close 
combat.  I oust people with a hoard of one bleeds or with Fame/Sniper Riffle.  
I can afford Club Zombie because my vamps are cheap, and because it's hard 
to oust me with all of the reaction cards and blockers.

PS: The day after the tournament my girlfriend and I flew from Pittsburgh to 
New Orleans for vacation.  Six days later Trent Rezner (of Nine Inch Nails) 
was on our flight back to Pittsburgh.  I wanted to give him a copy of Majesty 
with the Nine Inch Nails quote on it.  Unfortunately all I had on me were Cam. 
edition Majesties (from the cool prize support from the Pittsburgh tourney) 
with the bible quote.  So, no Majesty for Trent.

Tournament Winning Deck
Australian Championship 2002
December 8th, 2002
36 players

Deck Name: The Best of Both Worlds
Created and played By: Craig Johnston
Description: What can I say? It's a Malkavian/Malkavian antitribu 
Stealth Bleed deck, utilising (in my opinion) the best vampires from 
each Clan in terms of bleed potential, without being too large in 
it's Crypt capacity. It's not terribly harsh in it's bleed capacity, 
only bleeding for 4 at most without any static bleed modifiers. It 
also has quite a large capacity for blood gain (although not 
excessivly so). Not as much defence as I would normally like in a 
bleed deck (which tend to come under combat fire regularly) but the 
Lunatics are not known for their combat evasion.

Bratislava: Slovak Republic Weekly Tournament

December 7, 2002
Winning Deck by Ben Peal

I had a Gargoyles deck in development that had won 4 of 4 casual games, 
including one where I lent it to someone, so I figured it was ready for 
prime time.  It consists of weenie Tremere 12, with Tremere Slaves 
operating like the offensive line of an American football team, clearing 
the way for the Tremere.  As such, I've called it The O-Line.  :)  
The Tremere are just there for weenie bleeds, with the occasional 
Conditioning or J.S. Simmons/Tasha Morgan, as well as Deflections.  
The Gargoyles are Pot/For/Flight monsters, and they also handle the 
bulk of the defense, with Razor Bats (which have proved surprisingly 
handy) and Defenders of the Haven.

The winning deck:

Author: Sten During - yappo@netg.se

Name:   Master Madness

Description: Getting as many master-phase-actions as possible. Empty
your vamps and don't be shy to use Rosslers speacial and Information
Highway together. Tap Anson, Golconda Anson (using his special to do so) 
and bring a new Anson in play. The Baali can help with additional
master-phase actions.

Try avoiding trickling out your revolts as you'll need two or three in
one go to finish the game.

Golconda is also an offensive card. You're the only one who need large
vampires - the rest of the table can use the pool, especially your predator.

You win with the revolts and you need the massive bloat to make your
Life Boons count.

Even though it will eat on your nerves, to chose when to play without
any vampires at all is definitely what changes a loss to a win. On
average I'll sit close to a third of any given game without any
controlled minions.

Votes are a problem, as is any weenie-predator.

68 Mastercards is a bit low, and I think one each of Obedience, 
Wake and Deflection could go. I'd also remove Legendary Vampire. 
Replace with three Archon Investigation and one Tension in the 
Ranks. Maybe also replace one Information Highway and one The 
Barrens with two Dreams of the Sphinx.

Deck name: When Keebler Elves go bad.
Creator: Scott Gomes - Boston, MA
 
Was supposed to be a bruise and bleed but worked better as a 
opportunity power stealth bleed with casual intercept combat.  
Reason being is that at almost every table I sat at had more 
intimidating combat such as, Grant's Animalism combat deck 
and Ulysses' Assamite deck.

Tournament:     Shadows lengthen in Gothenburg

Author: Sten During
Name: Masking the Unblockable

Description: Combining Aching Beauty and Toreador Grand Ball may look
like a strange strategy. Add in Mask of a thousand Faces and it makes
more sense.
Declare non-bleed actions with your unblockable vampire. Play Mask and
finish the action in order to get another unblockable action.
Try playing bleed-modifiers and Aching Beauty/Camarilla Exemplary on
different vampires. Declare bleeds for lots. If blocked, Mask in some
pool-punishment. If bounced, Mask in a lower amount of bleed.
Expensive mastercards go hand in hand with Parity Shift.

Doing this deck again I'd throw out all equipment and add another three
Majesty.

Having now played it, I reckon a few things should probably change. 
Didn't see any use for the IR Goggles or the Waste Management (the
latter presumably because all the games were so quick, no one got near
the bottom of their library) but I did realise I didn't have enough
Rush. Often I was stuck with no way of getting into combat...
The intercept always came in handy, but without Wakes it meant it
effectively cost me a minion... Wonder if it could stand to loose
these as well...

God Bless the new Concealed Weapon though. What a beauty...

Completely untested (prior to the tournament), i would remove the 
cats guidance and probably change the temptations to two more forms 
of corruption. They were great with jack hitting your preys vampires 
blood and then burning it when they were down to zero. An 
interesting strategy, to just sit there, build up and then whack
jack on the table and just defend. Slightly random IE. Someone across 
the table usually bought it from jacks effect, and is definitely 
better to wait until your down a player as defending it against 4 
other meths is NO FUN(tm).

No real play notes -- this is a relatively stock Giovanni powerbleed.  
The AVA was very convenient as nobody ever bothered to take the action to burn 
it -- I'd have rather had a second one in the deck than the Mausoleum, which 
got discarded a lot.  Same with the Venetian Conference, as I was able to play 
at least one to good effect in each round, including the final (to torporize a 
hunting Suhailah).  Many people are familiar with the +1 intercept from superior 
Spectral Divination and will plan around it, so being able to have the +2 intercept 
coming from Francesca was excellent.  (This also let me save the Spectral Divination 
for extra stealth.)

Winning Deck of Days of the Dead 
Sydney's Qualifier for the 2002 Australian Championships
Sunday August 18th, 2002
13 players

Deck Name: Rutor's Followers
Created By: Chris Arthur - chrisa@comcen.com.au
Description: 

Some bleed, some bloat and plenty of stealth. If things are going well
summon Qufur or Samat and Rutor them. If not, summon Hesha, load up
with blood dolls, the razor and a secure haven and survive until
things get better. Amam and Jake are great to throw in front of rush 
combat. Plus it's ok if a few vamps go to torpor because you can 
bring them out easily with humanitas and catacombs. Nice if you can 
get either on a secured vamp early. Bloat is pretty much the only 
defence against votes and bleed but with a small library the deck 
moves quickly and you can be gaining 3-4 pool a turn before other 
players become threatening.

Deck Name:   15 Minutes of Fame
Created By:  Matt Hirsch
Description: 

Dominate/fortitude/protean with the dual capability of bruise 'n bleed
and rush/fame.  Defensive mechanisms are deflection and upstream
rush.  Lazverinus is the 'star player,'  but isn't essential to the
deck.  Intercept is forgone in lieu of more focused rush and some
political activity.

Gabrin's Paradox 
Creator: Trey Morita
Description: Use Sense Dep on your predator to buy you breathing room. 
If you prey's actions gain him pool (votes + voter captivation, fifth 
tradition) or he rushes backwards, then sense dep him too if you can. 
Try to wait until someone is ousted before you play Week of Nightmares 
(Store it in an Annex until then). Playing the waiting game can be 
effective. Oh yeah, always get Lazar first if you draw him in your 
opening crypt. If your prey is playing big vampires he will definitely 
be worth it. (Once, on turn 2, I had Lazar bleed with computer hacking, 
freak drive, and steal one from my prey's big vampire) 

Would drop Red Herring, Ignis Fatuus, Rapid Healing. Maybe could use 
another Draba, another Sensory Deprivation. Clan Impersonation or Golconda 
would be useful/funny ways to save or sacrifice Gabrin before the last 
Nightmare counter is placed. Secure Haven might be a good addition to 
protect Gabrin from rushes.

Created By: Lance Shope
Description: Obf bleed with Legal Manipulation. Majesty if you get
intercepted. Use the temptations on your own vampires if they run 
low on blood. They can Legal Manipulate (cost one blood) then Tempt 
self to hunt and gain the blood back. Or Tempt opponent's vampires 
(standard). Deck may be master card heavy at 17. Possibly dump an 
Info Highway and a Blood Doll or Giant's Blood and replace with 
Swallowed By The Night, the maneuver is critical against "Grapple" 
decks.

Origins 2002 - Friday Tournament
Tournament Winning Deck
July 5th, 2002
35 players

Well my luck continued on Friday at Origins this year. My other 
Gangrel deck won that tournament. This deck is a beefed up version 
of my Can I Wear This Jacket? deck that I used to win the Newark OH 
storyline event www.geocities.com/vtesresults/semsith/newarkOH.htm ) 
I guess that the new beef comes from more combat options and more 
damaging votes. Because the Gangrel are no longer in the Cam., I am 
not sure how much longer I will be allowed to play decks like these. 
It certainly was fun to play on Friday.

Deck Name: "The Gun is My Brush, Your Face is My Canvas" 
Created By: Matt Hirsch 
Description: Bloat up and build a horde of low-caps
plus Anneke or Anson.   Give guns to the ones with celerity. 
Swarm and destroy. 

The offense isn't as fast as other tourney decks, but
once it gets rolling it has pretty strong momentum.
Small caps with guns and superior Auspex can run a
tight defense to allow time for that longer build-up.

I would probably drop the strained vitae supply, a hunting ground

Maybe replace with 1-2 more cryptic missions or bit more bleed.
Possibly another embrace or two? Have tried using Rastafarian ghoul
but is too pricy and too fragile.

Deck Notes:

I've had a very good record with this deck in casual games, and now in a 
tournament. Its fairly straightforward, but a good bit of R&D; went into 
testing and tuning it. Intercept combat. A nice layered defense of solid 
intercept (with an option to KO), light bounce, and Greta, mostly keeps 
you out of trouble.

The Palla Grandes, with maybe help from Fame, give you a kicker to swoop 
in on your prey, and oust (maybe with Aire as the closer). The deck has 
enough juice to do this twice, but kind of runs out of ousting power after 
that.  But, typically, its just enough to win the table.

I started thinking about this deck after having my sneaky decks shut down 
by intercept monsters in a few tournaments. Kind of -- If you can't beat 
them, join them. Then give them a beating.

Winning Deck by Tony Smith

Deck name: You die, we win.

Created by: Tony 'literary Thug' Smith, with a bit of creative
inspiration from Jon Cooper.

Didn't have too many problems on the day and the combination of bone
crunching combat and 2nd tradition seemed to handle most things. A
little slow getting the first point in the final, which nearly
scuppered my plans.

The first version of this had 4 Don Cruez. I later decided that using
a smaller crypt and another Protean master was probably the way to go.
I may even drop the Dons to 2 and add a second Beast. I usually went
for either Theo or Volker first, on the basis that the Don was just
too big. Although, to be fair, his maneuver did save me a couple of
times against the Wookie's assamites.

---

I've been playing a lot more 80-card decks than 90 lately; none of
my non-rush-combat decks seem to run out of cards very often at all
even at 80.

Form of Corruption is great, especially if it makes your prey
afraid to bleed too much and keeps him from ousting.  It seems to
be often better to hang on to your Form until after your initial
prey is ousted and then steal one of your (former) grandprey's
vamps with it; it's a big boost on your way to (trying to) get
that second oust.

This deck is actually exactly how I designed it on paper before
ever playing it, except that I switched a Hesha Ruhadze for a
second Kephamos after writing it down (but still before playing
it).  Funny because my whole goal in the two weeks before the
tournament was to come up with a decent deck and have time to
tweak it before the event, but the one I ended up wanting to
play didn't need any tweaking (at least from the couple games
I'd tried it in beforehand).

Deck Name: Bell's Bruise, Bleed, and Bloat Brujah
Created By: John Bell
Description: I played nearly an identical version of this deck in the
storyline tournament at Anderson, IN. Major change from that deck was
I replaced Francois Villion with Anneke, with the idea of being able
to 2nd Tradition anywhere, she was too appealing to include in this
deck.

This deck is more along the "toolbox"-ish build than I usually prefer,
but it mainly relies on other Methuselahs thinking it is a dedicated
combat deck. For that reason alone I threw in a solitary Immortal
Grapple to assure people that I *might* have more in there.

Other than the Deflections, probably the game breaking card in the
deck is the Judgement: Camarilla Segregation. It never hit the table
during this tournament, but has proven in the past to be the
difference for me several times, especially when the table comes down
to 2 Methuselahs.

A real abomination of a deck, constructed initially taking advantage 
of Anneke's brilliant special to control the table but evolving into 
something much nastier. Interestingly I only had to use her special 
twice on the day and both of those times were in the final and saved 
VP's from dropping to someone else (not an acceptable situation :o). 
A evil VP sniper of a deck that puts the table under constant 
pressure and drops atom bombs with alarming regularity. The sleazy 
2nd trad / Obedience (hmmm I do like the picture on Sabbat 
Obedience :o))) / Majesty combo allows you to stay untapped and 
block loads of actions. In the second round I was under serious
pressure from Matt Stockton's weenie Pre deck and was pleased with the
constant ability to block 5/6/7 weenies a turn whilst laying down the 
master phase bombs.

Go-Go-Goratrix by Ben Peal

Description: Rush combat/intercept combat hybrid, taking advantage of 
Goratrix's built-in strike, and superior Animalism and Dominate. 
Payload comes from Goratrix's +1 bleed, and some Governs (used 
typically for bringing out more minions). Cheap supporting minions 
provide heavy Auspex defense and extra bleeding, and the 5-caps help 
with both defense and protecting Goratrix.

Blood Seige: Castro Valley
30 March 2002

Winning Deck Name: Of Ghastly Dreams (best safety lies in fear)
Created By: Ian Lee 
Description: Clearly toolbox, the core is "intercept". This deck had
been doing well in our casual games, so with some tuning, I thought it
might be an interesting candidate for playing in a tournament. After
tuning, I goldfished a bit and realized just how many of the actions
are at zero stealth. The lack of stealth remains a problem. Should
pull Fleecing, an Overload, and probably the Patshivs.
Pseudo-Blindness was a metagame guess that didn't work particularly
well (in that I discarded all of them). The MVP was Mass Reality;
should be more than one.

3. Danz (8 VPs, 1 VP in Finals) - Weenie Animalism Bleed+Combat
4. Johann (6.5 VPs) - Ahrimanes Intercept

The Delaying Tactics was my total prayer card, put in to hopefully avoid
getting Dramatic Upheavaled and having my VP stolen, but I never actually
played it this tournament. The Computer Hackings were a fairly recent
addition, and they were nothing but good--they sped up my ability to bleed,
often doubled as a Rush action, and could always be cycled. I'm thinking
about taking out the last two Decapitates for 2 more Hackings. And the Paul
DeCarlo? Yeah, sure he is just another 2 cap with pot, but between the hot
chick, cool suit, and looking like John Cale, he added nothing but class to
my deck.

Anarch Revolt, January 2002. 
Tournament Winning Deck
By Mike Nilsen.

This is the exact deck I used during the tourny, there were some 
changes from the normal version as I'm experimenting with it some. 
The beauty of this deck is you can bleed anyone(gaining pool) and 
reverse alot, thus even with little or no votes(5 max) or combat you 
can still have a say in whats going on. In this Tournament, the 
second qualifing round and the final round I back bled almost the 
whole time.

Cameron's slaughterhouse deck was keen. actually, the most fun was

86 cards, 14 masters.

Was supposed to have 4 Effective Managements making 90
but I accidentally put them in the wrong deck. I think
it would've been *much* better with them in - they make
the Bonds work a lot better. Still worked just well
enough, I guess.

Dramatic Upheaval: Columbus
January 19th, 2002
Winning deck by Douglass Brindley
 
 
I put this deck together seven years ago. Its pure cheese. 
I've tweaked it over the years, but I haven't played it. 
Looking you will notice that there is no blood production. 
Your prey IS your blood production. 
It's balls to the wall stealth bleed at it's finest.

notes:

-- special thanks to jay kristoff, for his deck on thelasombra's site,
which was the inspiration for this one, and to david d'avila-anderson,
for his incredible articles on the subject of intercept-combat decks...
-- i've been playing this deck for over a year now, in various forms,
but it wasn't until bloodlines and 'read the winds' that i was able to
really get it off the ground... the raw power and efficiency of that
one card opened up so many card slots, which i was able to dedicate to
forward pressure, without compromising my ability to fend off 4-on-1
onslaughts turn after turn...
-- in light of the lessons i learned at this tournament, i think i'll
need to change the 2 anarch revolt to either 2 more smiling jack, or 2
war ghoul... the anarch revolts organize the table against me too much,
and turn my cross-table buddies into enemies... with smiling jack, they
at least think twice before coming at me... removing 2 revolts also
allows me to drop 2 of the eagle's sight, so maybe i'd go with 3 smiling
jack, 3 war ghoul, and exchange the femur of toomler for one more
revenant...
-- i'm seriously considering swapping out the duplicate caliban in the
crypt for either goratrix, matteus, omaya, or [most likely] jost
werner... the duplicate crypt draw doesn't really hurt me much, but
having jost's inherent stealth might make a big difference in some
games...

Created By:  Martin Cubberley
Description: Get Suhailah to tool up with the Heart of Darkness then
Force of Will/Daring the Dawn your prey out of existence.  Use the many
Minion Taps for pool gain and refill vamps with Fifth Traditions - which make
for a great pre-Force of Will action.  The Second Traditions are there to
try and protect the Hearts, but it's not desperate if they go, just tool up
with another one.

December 16, 2001
Winning Deck by Heikki Poso

Crypt: (12 cards) [Min: 14, Max: 30, Avg: 5,58]
2  Caliban                       (ANI AUS VIC, Tzimisce, 6)
2  Corine Marcsn                 (ani AUS VIC, Tzimisce, 6)
2  Devin Bisley                  (ANI AUS vic, Tzimisce, 5)

2  Meshenka                      (ANI AUS VIC, Tzimisce, 8, Priscus)
1  Wendy Wade                    (ani aus, Tzimisce, 3)

Crypt worked well, I don't think I'd change anything. Corine was
one of the mainstays, the +1 strength is really useful.

Library: (90 cards)
Master (15 cards)
6  Blood Doll
1  Dreams of the Sphinx
1  Heidelburg Castle, Germany
1  Hungry Coyote
2  Jake Washington (Hunter)
1  Library Hunting Ground
1  Powerbase: Montreal
1  Rack, The
1  Vicissitude

Masters were ok as well. Heidelburg was not as useful as I'd thought
it would be, but I rarely got it out before endgame. Pb: Montreal gave
me 15+ pool in final (played it on first turn, it was successfully
fetched only once by other players and I got it back immediately).

Action (6)
1  Army of Rats
3  Pulse of the Canaille
2  Revelations

Equipment/Retainer (12)
1  Femur of Toomler
1  Living Manse
2  Meat Hook
1  Mr. Winthrop
1  Murder of Crows
2  Raven Spy
2  Revenant
1  Sniper Rifle
1  Tasha Morgan

Meat Hooks were not as useful as I'd imagined; quite a bit of
IGs/maneuvers/S:CEs/dodges in the games. Perhaps replace one
with another Femur (never saw the one in time to equip with it)
and the other with Aid from Bats or something... Sixth intercept
retainer would be nice (in place of Crows), but I don't have it.

Ally (2)
2  War Ghoul

Quite nice, except that I once fed my only source of permanent
intercept to one and missed it quite a bit. Also opposing decks
unfairly did not stay still to be hit; some more Traps would
have been useful.

Action Modifier (6)
5  Changeling
1  Malleable Visage

Discarded Malleable Visage all the times I drew it, so it might
be a candidate for replacement. Changelings were useful every
time I drew them.

Reaction (27)
4  Cats' Guidance
4  Eagle's Sight
2  Enhanced Senses
12 Forced Awakening
2  Rats' Warning
3  Telepathic Misdirection

Reactions worked well. No serious hand jams and even cross-table
vote decks did listen to my comments on acceptable voting
parameters. :-) Comment from prey: "Just _how_ much of that deck
is reaction cards?"

Combat (22)
1  Blood of Acid
1  Breath of the Dragon
7  Carrion Crows
5  Chiropteran Marauder
4  Horrid Form
2  Inner Essence
2  Trap

Middling to good. Inner Essences and BoA could perhaps be replaced
with something more useful; some presses would be nice. Got a less-than-
nice lesson on that by 1st round prey, who played a Tremere second
round combat deck...

Winning Deck by Caleb Toombs

Bird Man of Alcatraz

CRYPT (12)
11 Lambach
1 Anson

LIBRARY (60)

masters (20)
4 guardian angel
4 blood doll
2 rack
1 library hunting ground
3 smiling jack

1 direct intervention
1 giant's blood

minion cards (40)
11 raptor
11 obedience
8 forced awakening
3 deflection
3 plasmic form
3 eternal vigilance
1 palatial estate

Caleb said his goal is simple. Get 7 Raptors and Eternal Vigilance on Lambach,
and then grind everything into the dirt. Blood recursion keeps him and Lambach
alive while Smiling Jack wrecks house. It helped that the final was untimed.
It lasted 3 hours 15 minutes (yeesh!).  Caleb said he would improve the
deck by adding another Lambach (in place of Anson) and some Eagle Sights.

Crusade: Kosice, Slovakia
December 12th, 2001

Deck Name:   Omaya 
Created by:  Karol Magda
Description: Your aim is to get last 3 VP on the table , agitate the
table to slow things down so you can build up your force , bring out 
at least four minions and try to avoid pool loss. Be nice to your 
predator and only block him , do not kill his vampires unless it's 
necessary, doing so you can avoid his last spite when he will be dying. 
Don't let your prey gain pool if it is possible and bleed for a lot.
Use eagle's sights only as an emergency intercept, otherwise
reserve it for cross table threats (or ousting bleed of your prey). 

Crypt: (12 cards) [Min: 9, Max: 25, Avg: 4,25]

Winning deck by Jay Kristoff


I had seen on Lasombra's tournament winning decks page Johnny Tullner's
deck that won Fleecing the Gaje, held in Washington, D.C.  I really like his
use of four Anarch Troublemaker.  In Johnny's comments on the deck he wrote
"* Using an Anarch Troublemaker and then playing one is an excellent
tactic."  Yes Johnny, it is.  I decided to try to make room for my four
A.T.s.  I was only able to fit three in, and in doing so I ended up with too
many master cards in the deck.  Well, I wouldn't be writing this if I
didn't win, so I guess it couldn't have been that bad.

Sucks against damage prevention, and dies vs Drawing out the Beast. It
also has limited blood gen - but once you have 2 vampires up, you are
usually safe. Other than that, it has great card flow, superb handling
and really does the business. Not a great deck, or original, but my
best effort in the last few months.

Notes:

1) Trioles Revenge is in there just because I have been against a lot
of Ventrue decks lately. I did have Graverobbing in there, which I
will probably revert to at some stage.

2) The 44s are key permenants in the endame - as borne out earlier.

3) NO HUNTING GROUND! You don't need it - steal the ineveitable Rack.
Interesting that I hunted only once with one vampire all day!

4) Best card for flow... ever - Infernal Pursuit (sup)! Can be played
any time in combat and really clears a hand jam. 

5) Only 2 rares in the deck! You don't need a horde of pricey rares to
win.

Purity of the Beast: Minneapolis, Minnesota
November 3rd, 2001
Winning deck by Kevin J. Mergen


Here's the winning deck (props to Jay Kristoff for helping 
me master the Tzimisce):

Deck Name: Jack's War Ghoul Protection Service
Created by: Kevin J. Mergen
Description: Fairly standard Tzimischeese intercept deck with long-term goals in
mind. Jack's War Ghoul protection service is your key to victory.

Crypt: (12 cards) [Min: 24, Max: 32, Avg: 7.33]
2 Anton (ANI AUS cel obf vic, Tzimisce, 8)
2 Devin Bisley (ANI AUS vic, Tzimisce, 5)
2 Dragos (ANI AUS vic, Tzimisce, 7)
2 Little Tailor of Prague (ANI AUS dem VIC, Tzimisce, 8)
2 Meshenka (ANI AUS VIC, Tzimisce, 8, Priscus)
2 Sascha Vykos (ani AUS dom THA VIC, Tzimisce, 8, Priscus)

In retrospect, I think I would change this crypt by removing the 2 Dragos for 2
more Little Tailor. Even when I saw Dragos, I never *wanted* to bring him out,
and Little Tailor bringing out Tatu for a total of 2 pool (a free Revenant and a
2-pool Tatu) is simply ridiculous. (Another variant would be 4 Little Tailor, 4
Meshenka, 4 Sascha, although I don't know how this would work. I'm sure it
would be fine.)

Library: (75 cards)
Master (14 cards)
4 Blood Doll
1 Direct Intervention
1 Fame
1 Giant's Blood
1 Rack, The
3 Smiling Jack, The Anarch
3 Sudden Reversal

Action (3 cards)
3 Army of Rats

Note that if you're going to play AoR in a deck like this, you must have 3 (or
more in a larger deck) as you will probably be forced to let it be removed
eventually, but you want to have one around constantly as it and Jack are your
primary sources of damage.

Reaction (33 cards)
8 Cats' Guidance
8 Eagle's Sight
6 Enhanced Senses
8 Forced Awakening
3 Telepathic Misdirection

I would probably take out 2 Eagle's Sight for an extra Cat's and an extra FA,
since they are so critical to the deck. The power of Big Eye is simply amazing.

Combat (12 cards)
2 Breath of the Dragon
10 Chiropteran Marauder

After I played the first BotD, people kept asking me *every combat* if I had
another BotD. I always told them "Yes, but it doesn't need to be played right
now" and just smiled. When this deck was larger, it had more BotD, but when I
decided the Atlanta deck-building philosophy was the correct and true path, I
had to cut SOMETHING to get to 75, and 6 BotD went bye-bye. You really only
need these for decks like Dave's S&B;, who rely on getting away via maneuvers, so
you don't need more than a couple.

Ally (4 cards)
4 War Ghoul (aka Tatu)

I used to think Nephandus or the Renegade Garou was the best ally. I was
mistaken. Tatu wins games.

Retainer (6 cards)
6 Revenant

Equipment (3 cards)
3 Leather Jacket

As you can see, the deck really does only one thing -- get out Smiling Jack, and
protect him until it doesn't matter any more. This is about the 4th version of
this deck I have made, and the first one to almost entirely abandon pool gain.
Several people have made what I call the "pool gain" version of this deck, as
did James Hamblin and I last year after Sabbat War came out. The Gangrel are
also easily played with a deck of this type. Jay Kristoff won an Ohio
tournament with his version (http://www.thelasombra.com/decks/twd.htm#jaykic),
which is more or less a master-heavy "pool gain" version.

Crusade: Lisbon 2001
November 4th, 2001 Lisbon, Portugal
Winning deck by Luis Duarte

Name: Gangrel say goodbye to the Camarilla!
Type: Vote/Bloat
Author: Luis Duarte (luis.paleta@clix.pt)

Crypt (12): [avg = 7.16]

3 Angus, the Unruled [10,Gangrel,PRO+ANI+for+...,Gangrel Justicar,+1 strength]
3 Ingrid Rossler [9,Gangrel,PRO+ANI+FOR+...,Prince of Geneva,+2 transfers]
2 Katarina [8,Gangrel,pro+ANI+FOR+...,Prince of Glasgow,+1 bleed if prey has Ravnos]
1 Ramona [4,Gangrel,pro+for,]   --- Final Nights
2 Chandler Hungerford [3,Gangrel,PRO,+1 intercept against Gangrel]
1 Ricky van Demsi [3, Gangrel,pro+for]

 --> The deck strength resides on the vampires titles. The big ones can be 
 brought faster boosted by Ingrid's ability, Dreams of the Sphynx, 
 Powerbase:Montreal and especially Zillah's Valley.
 --> Ramona's ability is very useful especially if she runs out of blood after
 playing some protean action modifiers.

Library (90):

Masters (18):
4 Minion Tap
3 Blood Doll
3 Zillah's Valley   --- Final Nights
2 Dreams of the Sphynx
1 Creepshow Casino   --- Final Nights
1 Ecoterrorists
1 Powerbase:Montreal   --- Sabbat War
1 Backways
1 Elysium:Palace of Versailles
1 Visit From The Capuchin   --- Final Nights

 --> Zillah's Valley is very useful to control faster big vampires
 and in the mid-game it makes a great combo with Parity Shift. ;)
 --> Creepshow Casino is very useful to political actions, to hunt, ...
 --> Powerbase:Montreal is a good way to place an additional blood on
 an uncontrolled vampire with nmo cost. The Second Traditions never
 get jammed on hand for long periods... and it can be combined with
 Ecoterrorists for a blood cow!
 --> Elysium:Palace of Versailles helps adding some votes.
 --> Visit From The Capuchin is very very good, and it has a similar
 effect as Dreams of the Sphynx on card advantage.


Actions (14):
5 Fifth Tradition
4 Judgement:Camarilla Segregation
2 Army of Rats
2 Mashochism
1 Ablative Skin

 --> Fifth Traditions are a great blood source combined with Minion Tap for 
 bloat.
 --> Judgement:Camarilla Segregation are useful and most of the times other
 players burn vampires in torpor.
 --> Masochisms help paying some cards costs like Earth Control and Rapid 
 Change.   It can be combined with Flesh of Marble.
 --> Ablative Skin is a add-on, just in case, to prevent some extra damage.

Action Modifiers (15):
6 Earth Control
5 Rapid Change
2 Closed Session
1 Freak Drive
1 Kiss of Ra

 --> Rapid Change sometimes is useful to end combat.
 --> Closed Session helps against the Lasombra and other Sabbat votes against.

Political Actions (16):
2 Parity Shift
2 Banishment
2 Disputed Territory
2 Dramatic Upheaval
2 Corruption's Purge
2 Protect Thine Own
2 Conservative Agitation
1 Political Stranglehold
1 Ancient Influence

 --> Parity Shifts help control the table. Can be combined with Zillah's Valley
 to meet the pool requirements during the turn it is played.
 --> Banishments are easy to play on most vampires since the titled Gangrels are
 high capacity.
 --> Corruption's Purge are playable on all Setite at once, burning 2 blood and
 sending them to torpor if they don't have 2 blood to burn. Useful it your 
 predator has plenty of Followers of Set.
 --> Protect Thine Own helps burning some weenie non-Camarilla vampires.

Combat (14):
7 Flesh of Marble
5 Earth Meld
2 Skin of Night

 --> Flesh of Marble almost kill Potence decks, and if the damage
 is aggravated it can be combined with Skin of Night. The single point
 of damage "feeds" the Masochism.

Reactions (13):
9 Second Tradition: Domain
4 Cat's Guidance

 --> Second Tradition are a good example how a card justifies the use of
 bigger titled Camarilla vampires. Wake, untap, with +2 intercept is very
 good on a single card. Without this card, this deck almost got no real
 effective defense without changing other cards and its proportions.

Comments:

* I spent long hours tuning this deck to mathematical perfection.
* Using an Anarch Troublemaker and then playing one is an excellent tactic.
* Hand jam is the biggest problem, but usually the only thing to discard is
  locations you already have out.
* Tribute to the Master is almost never used.  It's there for emergencies.
* There are 4 rares, 21 uncommons, and 56 commons.  I love the balance of
  Jyhad that does not rely on rarity.
* The deck will usually sweep.  Expect the whole table to come after you.
* My friends don't let me play this against them, and I don't blame them.

Designer's Notes:

This is the first time I've ever run this deck or anything like it.  I
attempted to build a deck that could survive long enough in a tournament
environment in order to make a deal or two and then finish off my prey
and maybe my grand prey in one huge flurry.  Based on my
previous tournament experience I figured I'd face alot of bleed and vote
and not much rush/combat that didn't feature IG (in which case
I'd be screwed anyway), hence the lack of combat cards.  The idea is to
generate enough blood to keep your pool away from any huge
votes or bleeds, sudden or DI anything that's gonna hurt you real bad,
try not to piss off the D-attackers, let your predator bleed your
prey and wait for the moment to strike.

The crypt features 7 votes and plenty of dominate for those
deflections.  Plus with 42 master cards out of 90 total, Anson is a MUST. 
Ulugh and Cardano are the Day Op finishers and Muaziz is versatility. 
You must be VERY patient playing this deck, you can't really go
forward until you're ready to commit everything for the kill.  I tried
to rifle through the deck as quickly as possible (Storage
Annex/Ulugh/Parthenon) and get the cards I need for the finisher locked
in the annexes.  All you're looking for is to get your prey down
to 7 pool, then send Muaziz in to knock out any stoppers with a
Revelations and then go for it!  Ulitmately this is proof that a deck
doesn't have to be some kind of "nasty creature" to win a tourney.

3  Lost in Crowds
1  Marked Path
3  Mask of a Thousand Faces
10 Night Moves
9  Spying Mission
5  Swallowed by the Night
5  Temptation

The strength of the deck is the Spying Mission, even if it does only 3
with 2 actions. Temptation were very useful and so was the Enticement.
I used Enticement 2 times to oust my preys who thought that I was only
going to bleed them for 1. I was lucky not to meet too many combat
decks but I manage to oust my prey even with 2 Gangrel decks against
me at the table. I played my first succesful Dismemberment of Osiris
on Ambrosio Luis Moncada, it's a very strong card ( to put in every
Setite deck ). Maybe more Marked Path and less MotF. The "reduce
bleed" side of the deck was "very" useful ; with Lalitha and Julius.

an easy kill because she could not build up.

 Designer Notes:

This is a modification of my earlier deck that featured Anson and Rake with
Natasha.  I figured too many people would use Anson in a tournament setting,
so I switched.  Actually, Arika is simply better for my purposes.
The idea is rather simple, limit the blood supply, then wait until you can
kill your prey with a couple of stealthy votes and whack the rest of the
table at the same time.  This is principally a weenie stomper.
There is precious little defense, save the Redirections and Obedience.  I
figured if I was facing rush combat then IG would wipe out my Majesties
anyway.  I was right!  But in hindsight I do regret not including some
Rolling with the Punches.  Not a single intercept card and I don't think
that's a problem.  Unless you're stealthily D-attacking me, I don't care what
you do, just bring out more minions please. 
Big time blood recursion with the Taps and Caps.
The main problem with getting the votes off is cancellation and Delaying
Tactics.  Shrug.  Three "finisher" cards with the Day Ops and the Air.

Tournament Notes
Robert Acevedo was my bane all day.  He was playing
Ventrue Ante with Quinton AND Demonstration.  Ugh!

Game #1, Robert was my prey and he got his combo out
quick, shutting down my votes.  Marcos was my predator with a Beast/Rush
deck.  He killed Arika the turn after I brought her out and that was about
that.  I held on to outlive Marcos; moral victory.  Robert swept.

Game #2 and now Robert is my predator and Marcos is
my prey.  Sigh!  Here we go again.  Luckily I made a deal with Marcos that I
wouldn't bleed him if he didn't attack me.  (Not bleeding your prey?  Talk
about suicide!)  I figured I'd have my hands full with Robert's bleeds anyway.
Fortunately Larry's weenie bleeder took Robert out with a stealthy 7
bleed, Go Peter Blaine!  That got Quinton off of my back and the next turn I
called an Ancilla and Banished the Beast.  Marcos attacked me, breaking
our deal, so I deflected Larry's next big bleed and then bled out Marcos.
Two Ancillas later, Larry's weenies had betrayed him and what was left of his
pool.

Final:  I was seeded 4th and Julien chose me as his
prey.  I don't know if he knew what my deck did, but he was playing Dramatic
Upheaval, so it didn't matter much anyway.  I think he mostly chose to have
Cary for his predator because he was the only non-bleeder at the table.
Larry ousted Cary very quickly and I was at Robert's mercy even though he was 
my prey, because that accursed Quinton was out again.  Larry made a deal to
back off of Julien until Robert and I were dead.  Oops.  Robert and I then
conspired to vote Larry out and I figured I'd get second if Robert could
bleed out Julien and then roll for me.  Surprise, surprise.  Julien was not
only resilient, he outgained Robert and Hostiled Quinton.  Robert was getting
low on pool, so he had to let him go.  I hadn't gone below 15 that game so I
jumped in and bid 8 for Quinton.  That kinda cinched it.  Robert couldn't
kill Julien with only two minions so I agreed to let Julien withdraw if he
backed off me until I killed Robert.  (I HATE when these deals switch
around!)  Anyway, Robert got down to 3 pool with one minion and I had to
resort to calling three Anarchist Uprisings to kill him so he couldn't
deflect a bleed.  Julien withdrew and took second, Robert took third.  When
was the last time someone won a final as the only guy with 2 VP?  Weird
tourney, where were the Malks?

Playing the deck: Never discard any of the 12 kill cards. Counter
Blood gain with the Suddens. Use Revelations to remove Deflections or
blood gain from your prey's hand as the first action per turn if
possible. Depending on the deck use a Revelations about 1 in 3 turns.
Get someone with superior obfuscate quite quickly to cloak actions.
Remember that, largely, you suck at combat. Kill Mr. Winthrop or
spys/revanents at range if possible.

Could probably do with a Bomb instead of a Patronage, if I was to play
it again.

cheers

Deck Name: 'What I learned at the National Championship'...
        or 'Yes I can block every action'
Created by: Aaron Steele
Description: 9/29/01 - Grand Rapids Michigan Winning Deck.

Play anarch revolt. Block all actions that damage anyone, you want to
make sure that the anarch's do their damage in order so everyone is
ousted in sequence. Always bring out Anneke for her built in eagle
sight, then 2nd tradition/obedience everyone. Also 1st tradition so
people have to pay even more to take a turn..you don't need them just
block. Minion tap/5th tradition for pool gain.

Deck idea came from my first round at the nationals where Bernie B.
was playing his ultra sucky "All 6 traditions" deck. The 1st
tradition he played combined with someone elses anarch revolt killed
everyone on the table. Usually makes for a fast game, you kill or die
quickly.

GenCon UK September 2001
Winning Deck by Rob Treasure

It’s a reworked version of the old classic, built to handle most 
threats but a field of pure focus would not be the best. Other than 
my various Ventrue creations and the retired LoP. deck it is probably 
the one that I have spent most time over the years tweaking and analysing. 
Interestingly it is also the deck that I have scored the least VP’s (1) 
with in a tourney with ? Metagames hey !!  
 
It tackles most common ‘tourney standard’ decks very well and slugs it 
out with all but pure Gangrel Potence and Tzimisce Scorpion Sting/Blood 
of Acid. Got to be wary of Kiss of Ra and Hostile Takeover, they are 
really the only two things that really worry it consistently.

I did have another Sudden Reversal and 2 Leathers in up to a few minutes 
before the tourney but traded them out for the Guardian Angel, 
another Disarm and a 7th Second Tradition.
 
The Guardian Angel was amazingly useful and came out in most of the rounds, 
the 7th Second was exactly the right amount on the day. Very happy with the 
decks performance, it had enough whack to take out Beast and friends in a 
pure combat deck and was ‘focussed’ enough to apply consistent pressure on 
my prey all the time.

Gateway 2001 Los Angeles September
Robert Goudie's winning deck from Event #2

Deck Name:   Whole Lotta Faces
Created by:  Robert Goudie

Description: The deck was created rather quickly to take advantage of the
"multiple action modifiers of the same type" loophole found in Mask 1k.  The
idea was to use Mask 1k to be able to play multiple Command of the Beast on the
same action.  Also, Mask is easy enough to cycle if they decide not to block me
so I can cycle readily.

I think the concept is strong but the execution really isn't good at all. The
deck was never playtested and wasn't finished until a few minutes before the
event started.  It is missing Master Cards and has too few Govern bleeds and a
number of other things I'd tweak.  The deck also jams massively on stealth.  In
the prelims I had Anarch decks at my tables and the 4 cap vampires and some
quick bleeds helped me oust my preys.  In the finals, I was fortunate enough to
have the end-game come down to Jason Dawson and myself.  Jason was playing a
heavy heavy auspex intercept deck.  Jason's hearty block attempts at 4-6
intercept were just what my over-stealthed deck needed to cycle for the bleed
cards.  It was fate.

Gateway 2001 Los Angeles September
Event #1 Winning Deck by Brad Ward

The prelims were pretty nasty.  I abused the crap out of the Succubus
Club.  The first table I ended up using it to save myself from dying 3
different times.  After paying my predator 1 pool to "borrow" her
rats, I had the set up to oust Steve Bucy with a Perfect
Clarity/Daring Dawn bleed.  This burned Spiro and left me with no
minions.  I worked a deal with Nat Hammond to help oust my predator. 
The Succubus Club came in really handy letting me offer Nat and myself
unlimited card cycling using Succubus to trade the Elder Library back
and forth.

I don't remember much from the second round, except that Succubus came
in abusively helpful once again by being able to constantly trade
Milicent Smith back to myself at the begining of every turn.  This
time Nat Hammond got to be on the recieving end of that horrible
succubus club card.

The Final had the following seating order:

#1 Brad Ward - Spiridonas Soul Gem/Perfect Clarity/Daring Dawn
#2 John Amato - Black Cat, Celerity Equipment !Brujah/Brujah
#3 Paul Johnson - ???
#4 Jason Dawson - Anarch Revolt Weenie Dominate/Bleed/Bleed Bouncer
#5 ??? - 

Attention first went to Jason who had the Anarch heavy bleed
deflection deck.  Paul and Jason's prey (don't recall who)
really tried to put the hurt on Jason.  I was the only one with votes
on the table.  Jason, seeing his demise offered to help me however he
could if I would vote to keep his Anarchs in play while he ousts his
prey.  My prey (John) was putty in my hands, having neither bleed
bounce, intercept nor stealth.  Jason's prey fell first followed
by Paul Johnson.  I then ousted John Amato and Jason followed through
with his deal and rolled over.  The game was over in about an hour or
less thanks to the Anarch Revolts.

Note:  The deck is only less than 90 cards because I had limited
number of Perfect Clarity.  I plan to increase it to 90 as I acquire
more.

Dragon's Breath Tournament
DragonCon September 2001 in Atlanta
David Tatu's Winning Deck

Deck Name: Dragon Con 2001 Ventrue 
Created by: David J Tatu 
Description: I built this deck the morning of the tournament because 
I had not seen any Ventrue decks the night before and I wanted to play 
one. I think that the Ventrue are (just by a small margin) the strongest 
clan in the game but I hate to contest Vampires all day so I avoid 
playing them too much. The deck is pretty basic. I do not normally 
use Queen Anne unless I am working the dominate angle. I also really 
wanted to use Kiss of Ra and Seduction to screw with the intercept 
decks. It really worked. I got to Kiss Meshenka with a Revenant and 
then Seduce Dragos when I grave robbed. I also got to grave rob Ulugh 
Beg and an one-armed Basil (It was a card cycle thing). I had Jan out 
in two games, which I think screwed with a lot of people's minds. He 
was also able to bleed for 2 most every turn due to my prey being scared 
of his Kiss of Ra. The deck got 4, 2.5 and 4 (a sweep) VPs and then 2.5 VPs 
in the Finals. I never got near the end of my library so I would cut out 
15 cards (Deflect, Con Ag, Club Z, Closed Session, Bonding, B.O. WwEF, 
2 x Voter Cap, SoS, Majesty, Obedience, Govern and Freak Drive) and I 
would swap the Queen for a second Emerson. A valuable lesson I learned 
playing in this tourney is that Emerson can tell that mad rusher, Theo 
Bell, to have a seat and try again next turn. There was a Theo deck at 
two of the table I played at. This deck is not that strong in offence so 
I had to play careful and do a lot of table talking. The only deals I made 
regarding VPs took place in the finals and I only had to follow through on 
one of them. The other one was a "I will let you oust him if you then roll 
over" deal but my prey was unable to complete his end of the deal so he 
had to go and I had to do the oust myself.

GenCon August 2001
Thursday Tournament 
Winning Deck by Scott Christofersen

Deck name: All ahead full...
Created and played by: Scott Christofersen
Description: Stealth Bleed

Keep it simple.  Get out a bleeder as quick as you can and keep bleeding.
If you bring out a vampire and you are bleed, bounce the bleed.
If you get bounced and you are going to take out someone elses prey play
spying mission.  Suddens are for minion taps or very bad for you masters.
Pranks are to keep other prey in the game by giving them pool or to slow the
game/gain pool on early turns. Fear of mekhet was tossed in moments before I
left for gencon as I thought there might be some big bad bloat decks.

well...that was the idea...things went sour when Robyn put out a war ghoul
turn 3 in the first round and I had to gain pool like mad for many turns as
I made the deal not to bleed her if she just didn't come my way with the war
ghoul over and over.  Govern back and suck it off/prank saved me from the 4+
bleed a turn I was taking till I thought I might be able to take her out in
one turn and didn't make the deal.  I think I got my max stealth action of 7
to get the bleed in and I actually felt bad about it.  Robyn should have won
that game in my opinion if she had wanted to pound on the poor guy who had
only played 2 games in his life that was her prey.

The final was pure seating as Jeff (the Lasombra) knows.  All in all luck
won the day for me more than anything. Took 19 VP thursday and 0 friday
mostly due to bad play by me and a bit of bad luck as well.

Tournament Winning Deck by Tony Smith
For Watford, UK July 2001


Deck: Notaweeniedominatedeck version III

Created by: Tony Smith

The idea is to hit the ground running. Either use
superior govern to pull out your vamps for 1 pool, and
assault once a huge force is amassed. Or bleed like
shit off a shovel from the first turn. Either way it
often takes out multiply preys in a turn. If it's
running well, and your prey has no deflections, it
should clean then out in about 4 turns.
Little combat defense but letting a few die to get
through with the one 6 point bleed is often the way to
go
Cheesy as hell, but funny as fuck.

7 vps in the first 3 rounds, 4 in the final.

Crypt: all 4 capacity with basic dominate, except
Gloria and Ingrid who have superior.

Aleph
Violette Prentis
Courtland Leighton
Gloria giovani
Ingrid Russo
Francesca Giovani
Roland Bishop
Laurent De Valois
Ignacio, the Black Priest
Sarah Cobbler
Ignacious
Peter Blaine

Master:
5 Blood Doll
7 Dominate
Sudden reversal
4 Effective management
2 Dreams of the sphinx
2 Hostile Takeover (I know that there are only 2
ventru in the crypt but trust me, the hostiles have
won games for me more than once)

Minion:
4 Change of target
3 delaying tactics (one more is probably necessary)
5 Wake with evenings freshness (changed from 4 at the
last minute)
5 fake out
3 Dodge
Ivory Bow (didn't see it all day, may need to come
out)

10 Govern the unaligned
10 Seduction (the numbers of both of these has
fluctuated between 8 and 12. for this tourney I went
for the happy medium.)
7 Deflection (undoubtedly saved me in the final)
2 Sleeping mind
4 Threats
6 conditioning
6 Bonding

The 2 vamps in the crypt with superior dominate were a
last minute thing. They can't use the governs at
superior, but the inclusion allowed me to cut the
number of dom masters and makes it run a little
quicker if they are in the opening crypt. I found that
by using 4 caps as opposed to the normal  dom weenies,
I got all the benefits of a weenie deck, but with a
few less disadvantages.

Continental Championship Dallas Qualifier
Winning Deck by Ethan Burrow June 2001

This is *my* Toolbox
by Ethan Burrow

The idea was to vote/bloat with Voter Captivations acting as 5th Traditions,
since the Sabbat can't obviously play 5th Tradition.  Most other cards in the
deck were either single shot utilitarian or very versatile in keeping with my
current trend of toolboxing.  You may note that a lot of the cards have
multiple uses.

Enchant Kindred can serve 3 purposes; speed up influencing, bleed, or pool
gain.  All the intercept cards doubled as bleed bounce, so I could defend
against many deck types.

I also wanted to include enough combat defense that I might be able to survive
a rush deck long enough to grab 1 VP.

The fact that there are only 12 masters was purely coincidental, and had
nothing to do with Atlanta .

Bloodsiege: Mannheim Tournament Winning Deck
March 2001 by Christoph Hardebusch

The deck won the 'Blood-Siege Mannheim' on the 11.03.2001. There were about
20 participants from all over germany. Unfortunately, the VteS-Coordinator
made some mistake with the renting of the room, so we had to leave too early
to do 3 preliminary rounds, which forced us to go for 2 instead. I am not
quite sure, but I think the tournament results did not go into the ranking
because of that. Which is quite bad, because the deck won the first table,
only one other deck got a victory point. It swept the second table and went
into the final with 9 victory points from 2 games. The final hang on a
thread for a round or two, but then the game went my way and my deck swept
that table, too. 

Carpe Jugulum.

75 TOTAL 

The idea behind the deck is simple:
keep yourself alive, almost indefinitely, by bloating like crazy 
from the Blood Dolls / Hungry Coyote combination, supplemented by 
Govern the Unaligned and Scouting Mission at superior. After you 
have a suitable number of minions up and your prey is low enough 
in pool (less than twelve, heh), steamroll your prey with stealthed 
+2/+1 bleeds from your four or five minions. Machiavelli sums it 
up nicely: "And here we must observe that men must either be 
flattered or crushed; for they will revenge themselves for slight 
wrongs; whilst for grave ones they cannot. The injury, therefore,
that you do a man should be such that you need not fear for revenge."

The weak spots of this deck, as with most focused decks, are numerous. 
The lack of intercept, with the exception of Angelica, is a major sore 
spot, which actually cost me two victory points in the final. Should 
anyone seek to replicate this deck, I suggest substituting a number 
of intercept cards in for the Redirections. A heavy-duty rush-combat 
deck with Immortal Grapple would tear this deck to shreds, as the 
maneuvers are light. Depending on your local metagame, replacement 
of a number of Shadow Step for Arms of the Abyss may be in order. 
The addition of a Power Structure, to defend against vote-based decks, 
would also benefit the deck greatly as it will often finish the game 
with four-plus minions.

Praxis Seizure: Los Angeles 2001
Tournament Two won by Darby Keeney

Deck Name: WeePee Bleed 101, created by: Darby Keeney

Description & Playstyle: Concept and play are simple, BLEEEEED!

Process:  Try to influence 3-4 vampires out in the
same turn, unless you're being no-stealth bleed for 
a bunch early.  Pentex that big vampire your prey
first influences after you've got your critters in a
line. Attempt to bleed with enhancement. Use S:CE to 
tap out any Wakey blockers. Repeat process lots of times, 
using Propaganda & Anarch Troublemaker only when you think
you can bleed your prey out.

Hint: If you don't have S:CE in hand, consider bleeding 
anyway. Use Media Influence (sup) to refill anyone in torpor 
(it works on all controlled vampires), then rescue them and 
begin bleeding again. If you have too much S:CE, bleed anyway 
and hope for combat to clear your hand.

Pool management is mostly from rapid ousting and can
cause high stomach acid levels.  Social Charm (sup), Enchant 
Kindred (sup) and Tribute to the Master followed by Media 
Influence (sup) can supplement when Tums(r) are insufficient. 
Deck is weakest against vote, steath bleed and weenie bleed decks.

Crypt: (16 cards) [Min: 5, Max: 17, Avg: 2.75]
 1 Angela Decker (pre, Pander, 1)
 1 Antoinette DuChamp (cel pre, Caitiff, 1)

 9 Enchant Kindred
 2 Entrancement
14 Majesty
15 Media Influence
 4 Propaganda
15 Social Charm

Possible offensive improvements/variants, depending
on metagame:
Pump bleed by using 4-8 Legal Manipulation replacing
Social Charm and/or Tribute to the Master.
Get slightly more deceitful - and nominally faster,
by adding 1-4 more Aire of Elation, in place of Enchant Kindred.
Add more tap effects with 1-2 Propaganda in place of Enchant Kindred or
Social Charm.

Possible defensive improvements/variants, depending on metagame:
Substitute 1-2 Archon Investigation for Tribute to the Master.
Consider 1-4 Delaying Tactics in place of Social Charm and/or Enchant Kindred.

    I was often content with not taking any actions and letting the master
cards and my wall of intercept do the work.  The reaction cards are there to
protect the master cards that are already in play.  Aggravated damage (with
or with out Rotschreck) made vamps pay for trying to mess with my stuff.
Multiple master phases were required because I ran through minion cards
quickly and would occasionally see a very gray hand.

Josh Duffin's Gangrel Wall of Untap
Crusade: Philadelphia Tournament Winner

Josh's deck is a fiendishly clever block and untap
monstrosity.  Cats Guidance, Raven Spies, Forced Awakenings,
and Atonement make for constant blocks, and Earth Meld 
keeps your people alive and ready for more.  Smiling Jack the
Anarch takes down entire tables while pool management 
keeps his damage to you to a minimum.  Millicent Smith,
Puritan Vampire Hunter is also a really nice addition to this
blocking machine.
	(I didn't get Josh's comments on the final, or on his
deck, so I hope he'll respond to this mail with any words of
wisdom on playing this thing.)

Rob Treasure's winning deck Portsmouth August 2000
Deck name:  ' I'll be your dog !'
Created by:  Rob T
 
Description: Block and slaughter, fixed bleed, lots of nasty surprises. 
Does not like S:CE but can block regularly enough to give it huge 
problems. An interesting and fun deck to play - have to take a few 
risks, too easy to sit tight and remain reactive. Meshenka is my 
firm favourite, backed up by a stack of other great vamps (Dragos, 
Lambach, weenie bleed/blockers and of course Devin Bisley and her 
PMT charged big sister Corine.)

Well there it is...
Some comments about playing this deck:
1. Don't rely on getting any specific card, nor wait for one.
2. Play the hand you receive (all surprises from the deck
				will be good, I promise)
3. Cycle -- Focus on going forward, you cannot win with this
deck if you turtle up.
4. This deck was designed to play at a 4 player table...
(It's what I'm used to and usually what I see in
tournaments)
5.  Yes this deck is not perfect and it does have
weaknesses, but I foresee changes to it in the not too
distant future.
6.  I'd like t thank David and Jose and the Charlotte play
group for all their help and teachings over the last year.


That's all folks...

Caio
Steve Coombs

Matthew Green won, with a quite EXTRAORDINARY toolbox Malky deck,
including [blush, simper] Out-of-turn Rush/aggravated damage/Rotschreck
combat. He only had 5.5VP to get to the final but he engineered this
quite BRILLIANTLY, ensuring, for example, in the third heat that none of
the other players was going to get more VP than him, and that the biggest
threats to him were stymied. He then played a total blinder in the final,
starting off slow, blocking or voting down [with my help] Rob's votes,
helping me to bring Rob down to 1 pool and then using a Madness network
Dramatic Upheaval to swap places with me, so that he could bleed out Rob
and then, via a deflection, me. A really AMAZING performance and one for
the aficionados. Well done, Matt! All the finalists got AH boosters -
thanks, John!

                          2 Gilbert Duane
                          2 Gregor Anderson

"The deck could stand some improvement, it was the first time it had 
seen competitive  play. The Bums Rushes were pretty bad, another hunter 
would have been better.  The Legendary vampire was great as were the 
My E's-E's. Telepathic vote counting should be something different and 
the deck should have Sudden Reversals and maybe a DI. Tribute to the 
Master effectively kept Rob T in the game during round 1, I had no way 
to deal with it. Masters in this deck are at a premium really and adding 
still more OOT cards may be a bad idea. I'll try it and see."

COMMENTS:

Well, first of all, I'm suprised at the contents now that I look at 
it.  The original version was more heavily weighted toward Night Moves.  
This is probably half as many as were in the first version.  I also 
removed all of the dodges and instead put more intercept.  I've always 
called it a night moves deck but that really doesn't describe it well 
anymore.  Let's call it a Weenie Obfuscate/Auspex deck.

The crypt design is pretty obvious.  I put 2 of each vampire that had 
auspex+obfuscate.  I also put 2 of the 1 or 2 capacity vamps with 
obfuscate.  The auspex vamps are key.  I need to get at least one to 
start with.

I think I'm pretty well known for really focussed decks (weenie dom bleed, 
weenie cryptic mission, weenie undead persistance, etc.) and this is 
somewhat of a departure.  They're still weenies but I put in a good 
number of cards that may or may not be useful. As it turned out, these 
additions that watered-down my stealth bleed were a big benefit to me.

I believe I won with no library cards left so I had an opportunity to 
play all of the one-shot cards.  Delaying Tactics was used to save my bacon.  
The Malkavian Dementias were quite nasty and allowed me to take Lucian 
from my predator at a couple of key moments.  The Muddled was quite useful, 
as were the Haven Uncovered (I believe Paul made use of it to attack
Jeff) and the Sudden Reversals.

I essentially used my size to get a quick kill of my first prey.  Then, 
I had enough intercept to keep my next prey and my predator from killing 
me.  The neverending supply of stealthy bleeds eventually did the trick.

-Robert

Influence out the oldest vampire in the starting
crypt with superior Dominate.  Then use the Govern
the Unaligneds and Scouting Missions to bring the
rest of your crypt into play.  

It is not unusual for this deck to have 7-8 minions
in play with 10+ pool before ousting its first prey.

Proof positive that you don't need rares / uncommons
to win, as there are only 3 uncommons in this deck,
all the other cards are common.

  Notes: Should replace Greger with another copy of Mariel. His lack of
  superior DOM is too much - even though he has a title and OBF. Mariel's
  ability is useful when faced with an intercept-combat deck.

4  Masochism
1  Pulse of the Canaille
4  Restoration
3  Rutor's Hand
2  Talbot's Chainsaw

Instructions:
1: If the tourney rules allow you, don't be afraid to strip this deck by as
many as 30 cards...
a) The gangrel de-evolutions are because gangrel's persistent small bleeds
and many combat-ends cards are annoying.
b) The strained vitae supplies are great against pleb-decks.
c) Strip one Chainsaw and all Vast Wealth if you think the chainsaw is in
danger from canine hordes.  If you think it may get stolen with fast
hands... Keep it in! ;o)

2: Try to save the bursts of sunlight for when you're blocking.  Or your
opponent will just dodge of Combat ends.

3: Dawn-op, weather control, skin of night :o)

4: The chainsaw will start an entropic process, ending in your demise, or
the chainsaw-bearer going to torpor...  Make sure you time its appearance so
that you have won before it causes you to lose.  The restorations, the fifth
trads, the chantry, and the masochism will all help to make the chainsaw as
painless as possible.

5: The Chainsaw can be used twice in a turn if you use Heidelburg.

6: You *need* someone out with superior auspex if your predator is capable
of large bleeds.

7: You *can* survive for some time without a prince or justicar, but you'll
probably need one for the end-game.

8: Blood-dolls, restorations, fifth-trads, and the Arcane Library are your
blood-generation, Bindusara has superior auspex and can get you the arcane
library...

Political Defense: Block them.
S&B; Defense: Deflect them until you can chop 'em up.
Pleb Defense: Beat 'em up, and eat 'em.  Strained vitae supply.
Combat Defense: Agg-damage (dawn op / Weather control, or block and wait for
a good chance at Burst of sunlight, then be sure to diablerise them.

Portsmouth Tournament Winner January 15th 2000
Hostile-Parity Sleaze
by Rob [i like dirt] Treasure
[Rob is getting married on October 14th. I assume by now his fiancee is aware 
of his predilections. If not, i think some kind soul should tell her.]
Creator's notes: Another variant of the old ventrue Power deck. Even more 
offensive as the hostiles and parity shifts work well together. Crypt is a 
bit odd, could do with one or two mid-pointers with obfuscate but in the end 
better off going for good old Sir Walt. Would not have done so well if not 
for the total lack of combat at the last tournament. Went for more obfuscate 
which worked well due to the usual and amazing lack of intercept at Portsmouth.

Weenie Trap Unflinching Filth
By Rob Treasure
Creator's notes: A bit open to heavy agg damage burning you but can overrun 
most decks with numbers. Obviously key to get out one or two with dom or DOM 
to deflect and bleed. Possibly gone a bit mad with numbers of trap and undead 
persistence but seemed to work ok. In hindsight would put more bleed in.

Here is the winning deck for "Ascendance: 1", with comments from the winner. 
It's a very interesting combination deck using Pool Gain, Votes, Intercept, 
and Bounce:

Name: Big Toreador Deck
By: Brian Wellington

"I usually call this the 'big Toreador deck'. It's based around large Toreadors 
with useful special abilities. Most of them have votes, and most have +bleed. 
The deck mostly tries to gain pool (5th Tradition, Voter Cap, Minion Tap, Blood 
Doll, etc). There are votes to call, and the natural bleeds. There's enough 
intercept to block a non-stealth bleed deck, and a bit of bleed bounce. 
There are a lot of untaps - Wake, 2nd Tradition, and Alexandra and Masika's 
abilities. Combat defense is based around presence S:CE, celerity dodge and 
prevent, and the Elysium.

"The deck mostly worked as planned in the tournament, with a few surprises. 
I torpored 6 vampires in the final round with Catatonic Fear and celerity 
cards, which has never happened before. Very few votes succeeded (I never 
used a Voter Cap), but bleeding worked fairly well. I also never saw a duplicate 
vampire in a game, which is often a problem with this crypt, and it also helped 
that I didn't see any other Toreador decks."

Rob’s Comments:
 
"I wanted to try to show that my old faves can still rock 
and roll in a tournament arena. The deck harps back to the 
Ventrue Steamroller deck of GenCon97 with revisions for the 
7/7 rulings which DID NOT help the Ventrue [Pulled Fangs, 
Fame/Day Op, Tomb etc etc] needed to be done however.
 
It fits in most of the "Classic Cards" as well as a slice 
of obfuscate in place of the multitude of Day Ops. The 
value of Master phases/cards are realised as they are laid 
down 2 at a time – no one can deny the effectiveness of a 
double Hostile in the right hands. Might take out the 
revelations, they are useful to get rid of intercept, 
wakes or power cards but more Daring the Dawn or Hostiles 
would be more useful. I like the crypt, obviously powervamp 
Arika and Queen Anne are the mainstay but either of the 
other princes with an obf skill card can kick ass. Lady 
Luck can boot you in the nuts with your draw of four but 
as long as one of the biggies come out you are ok.
 
The deck has very little intercept. I tend to save the 
2nd Trads and the Rumor Mill for emergencies and rely on 
Hostiles, Banishments, Deflections and agitation as 
"offensive defense". It has a lot of powerful one-shot 
plays, biding your time, slotting together a good hand 
and playing it well can take out two or cripple three 
players in a turn. The deck is all about laying low and 
balancing tables then pouncing when you are very sure 
or taking a calculated risk [my kind of deck].
 
I was impressed with [and scared by!] a couple of decks 
at the tourney. Niki’s Trap/Undead Persistence deck was 
cool, I liked the obvious but overlooked inclusion of 
superior Dom. Will’s horrible allies blender deck is 
great, the hurt comes from an unexpected source and the 
sheer numbers are hard to handle. 19 players. Could be 
wrong but no Malk. S&B; decks, F* ***** Hooray."
 
He’s not wrong about the lack of cheese. Only one tap 
and bleed deck, too! It was also good to see Nathan's 
!Tre combat deck and Garry's big blokes doing well.

Eric Nawrotzki's Crusade: New Jersey October 1999

Here is Eric Nawrotzki's "Crusade: New Jersey!" 
tournament winning deck: 
 
Name: "OK, What the Hell, a Ventrue Vote Deck"
By: Eric Nawrotzki
 
This Ventrue Vote Deck shares a fair degree of similarity 
to my Toreador vote deck, which won "Praxis Seizure: New Jersey".  
Once again defense was a prime consideration.  It has Domain Challenges, 
Forced Awakenings, and Sudden Reversals to slow down the weenie tap decks 
(which for some strange reason there were none).  The Archon Investigations 
and Protected Resources and the Deflections to deal with the big bleeders 
(of which there were many).  Since there are more Ventrue Princes the 
Toreadors, I went with more 5th Traditions and Minion Taps. The weakest 
part is still probably combat defense, but I was able to add Obedience 
to the Elysium and Majestys (and I did not encounter any combat rush decks).

That's a direct copy of what Will wrote out for me, and I reproduce it 
in part because I think it gives an insight into his creative process. 
And Will is VERY creative, AND a nice guy, AND a good player. Moreover, 
he has the loudest voice of ANY Jyhad player I have ever met, a fact 
which becomes apparent to the entire block once he starts losing. 
 
Notice that this deck, constructed for an NCL environment, is also valid 
for 6CL. It also contains rather few rares, and would probably function 
quite well without those. Hey, i'm getting the hang of this subtle hints 
business, doncha think? Hope you are listening, CL dudes and dudettes.

Peter Bakija's Praxis Seizure: Buffalo 99 winning deck

2x Duck 3: pot, obf
2x Agatha 4: POT, obf

10x Undead Strength
4x Fists of Death
4x Decapitate
4x Disarm
4x Rampage
8x Behind You
8x Taste of Vitae

This deck is highly proactive--its bleed defense is killing the vampires who 
want to bleed it, its vote defense is killing the vampires who want to call 
votes against it, and its combat defense is to kill, kill, kill. It rarely, 
if ever, blocks anything, and as such, is almost always completely tapped 
out, having had all of its vampires attacked on its turn. It'll have a lot of 
trouble with a persistent Gangrel deck, a serious manuver deck, or some sort 
of deck that has a lot of Fortitude and Presses, but these are pretty 
uncommon in a tournament environment.

Portsmouth September 1998

Legbiter's winning deck. Basically this is a clone of the "Princes of
Carthage" deck that got R David Zopf to the DragonCon finals. David's modest
claim that this was "just thrown together" is somewhat undermined by the fact
that the deck can still do well in the hands of a different player on the
other side of the pond! However, I admit I have tweaked the deck a little
[more KRCs, kept the Kine Dominances, didn't increase the Carthages, changed
a few of the masters]. In play it flows beautifully. The only change i might
make to it now is maybe to put in a few alacritys - perhaps replacing the
Sengir dagger, one of the closed sessions and one of the Bewitching orations.
This is because the only time the deck struggled was when Garry, with a
decent amount of intercept, good combat and a few votes of his own, was my
predator. Interestingly, this deck didn't do THAT well when we playtested it
in my group last monday - i got 2VPs but also got kippered by Drummer John's
fast presence-bleed deck. Admittedly that was in part because i made a
FOOLISH error, but still .... guess the playgroup ain't the same thing as the
tournament, eh?

GenConUK September 1998

But Rob's winning deck.  He wants a cool name for it, but at 7 o' clock
in the morning, the best we could come up with was the Lazverinus All
Skills All Stars deck.  Better name suggestions on a postcard please.
The deck doesn't look much but what has to be taken into account is the
calibre of the player, who knows exactly when to play and when not to,
and ensures a good cycle of his cards to get exactly what he needs, when
he needs it.  Apologies if any cards are mentioned more than once, total
the number of them if it happens.  There are 86 cards in the deck, and
12 vampires.

1 Foreshadowing Destruction

Portsmouth May 1998

Steve Wright is thus not only the tallest Jyhad player in England but the
champion of Portsmouth, at least until our next run-in which will probably
occur in about 6 weeks' time [date uncertain because we want to avoid
clashing with world cup matches]. Well done Steve! Not bad for someone who
got Nul Points in Praxis Seizure: Isle of Wight! Here is his winning deck:

CRYPT [12 vampires, avg = 6.17]:
Natasha Volfchek
Arika
Democritus
2 Sir Walter Nash
Mustafa Rahman
Luccia Paciola
Ranjan Rishi
Violette Prentiss
Emerson Bridges
Gideon Fontaine
Rufina Soledad

LIBRARY [90 cards]:

2 Hostile Takeover
2 Minion Tap
Parthenon

2 Tomb of Rameses the Cheesemonger
Direct Intervention

2 EQUIPMENT:
Sport Bike
Soul Gem of Etrius

14 COMBAT:
2 Zip Guns
Skin of Steel
Pulled Fangs
Skin of Rock
4 Majesty
2 Dragon's Breath Rounds
Catatonic Fear

13 POLITICAL ACTIONS:
Rumours of Gehenna
Ventrue Justicar
Consanguineous Boon
Praxis: Solomon
Banishment
Praxis Seizure: Geneva
4 Kine Resources Contested
Disputed Territory
Ancilla Empowerment

9 ACTIONS:

3 Govern the Unaligned
2 Mind Rape
Rapid Healing

13 REACTIONS:
Second Tradition

4 Deflection
Elder Intervention

Obedience

15 MODIFIERS:
2 Aire of Elation
2 Bonding
Seduction
Awe
Day Operation
Voter Captivation
2 Kiss of Ra
Dawn Operation
The Sleeping Mind
Bewitching Oration
2 Conditioning

No allies or retainers whatsoever.

Interestingly, Steve's deck is almost a 4CL affair .... and clearly could
be made 4CL by the simple expedient of replacing one of the WWEFs with
another Second Tradition. It worked essentially because whenever people
tried things against it Steve had a counter. Example: I tried a
cross-table Bum's rush. He Direct-Intervention'd it.

Josh Duffin's UBCon April 1997

...Which reminds me that despite your inveigling I never did post my
UBCon Tourney-winning deck, which was also a combat deck, though not so very
involved as the four-discipline Marty deck.  So here's the listing:

crypt: 13 vampires for style reasons [avg = 4.23]

Lupo 2 pot
KoKo 2 pot
Dre-Leader of the Cold Dawn x2 3 pot cel
Jacob Bragg 3 pot cel
Yuri-The Talon 4 pot cel
Jimmy Dunn 4 POT CEL
Volker, the Puppet Prince x2 5 pot CEL
Rake 6 pot cel
Bianca pot CEL
Anvil x2 POT CEL

The 3 princes are somewhat important for the vote angle that was meant to
give me some sort of edge over "standard" combat deck operations.  As it
turned out, the vote angle never really paid off during the tournament - I
only managed to use Anathema a couple times, and never really got any mileage
out of the Con Boons.  But I still think it was a good idea...

library: 90 cards (the maximum we allowed; the tourney was DCI rules, with
a few cards banned - paralyze cards from the Jyhad set, plus Succubus Club,
Monocle, and I think that was about it.)

masters:
 1x Archon Investigation
 4x Haven Uncovered
 3x Celerity
 4x Potence
 1x Fragment of the Book of Nod
 1x Blood Doll

votes:
 3x Anathema
 1x Praxis Seizure: Washington, DC
 1x Praxis Seizure: Rome
 3x Consanguineous Boon

actions:
 7x Bum's Rush
 3x Ambush
 1x Rampage

combat:
 9x Torn Signpost
 9x Immortal Grapple
 7x Taste of Vitae
 8x Flash
 1x Pursuit
 9x Undead Strength
 3x Sideslip
 2x Acrobatics
 3x Blur
 2x Side Strike
 1x Fists of Death
 1x Increased Strength
 2x Pulled Fangs

----
90 cards; 57 combat, 11 actions, 8 politics, 14 masters. 10 rush/4 haven
uncovered.

The idea is really pretty obvious: get into combat, beat the crap out of
some poor vampire, taste their vitae to refill your vamp.  The combat
section is a little on the repetitive side, but that's what seems to be
effective.  And it was very effective, especially the Immortal Grapples: it
seemed like most people at the tourney hadn't seen IG used very extensively
before, while, in my group, it has become the staple of most combat decks due
to its ability to beat strike:combat ends and dodge.

The Archon Investigation, cheesy trump card that it is, saved my ass a couple
times when the "Meet my unblockable Return to Innocence" deck came over to
bleed me for 11 for more.  I was lucky enough to have it in hand at the right
time, and so I got its benefit (even though, at least once, that just got
Basilia with her two skill cards turned into some IC member via the old
Soul Gem), which was of course tremendous.  I would almost certainly have
lost the final (championship) game if I had not drawn my AI quite early, and
knowing that my predator was the RTI deck, held it until I needed it.
