i played this deck in our second game at Rob's house last week and got squashed
[Rob and Michael tied 2 each, with Rob last man standing], but i tried it again
last night in our pub game and got 3/4 VP. Most unfortunately, indeed quite
literally tragically, Rob had to leave before play started, having learned of
the sudden death of a close friend. So it was a sober four-player in which i
went second. My predator was John Keech playing Tremere intercept-combat [i
know, i know. i did try to tell him], and i preyed on John Eagles playing
Lasombra toolbox, who was preying on Mark Baxter playing Toreador/!Toreador
bleed-and-vote. John Keech could have given me problems with his go-to-range
and toast stuff, but luckily for me he was quickly out to Mark's big bleeds and
even more luckily Mark had to use up quite a lot of his combat-avoidance cards
in the process. Meanwhile i was remorselessly kicking John Eagles in,
eventually managing the Fame-rush combo plus a Walk of Caine. Judicious use of
Larry's special backed up by rushes got Mark down to his Alexandra's, so he
rescued one vampire in torpor, and i pounced with another Walk of Caine. All
over in an hour, BRUTALLY efficient. This deck BTW is inspired by Rob's
Torrance circle BB deck with which he SQUASHED John Keech and i before
Christmas.
