I made this deck in a period of my life when I was doing web marketing for a small local game store. There were a lot of events to run, perks, and just general fun to be had playing games. It was especially fun because I got to do a lot of experimentation with games. This deck was an experiment in building a deck by rigidly asking two questions:
If the answer to one or both of those questions was yes, I set them into a pile to consider. I further narrowed down the deck to the colors black and white. This gave me the best chance to build what would ultimately be a vampire ally deck from hell.
My first iterations had well over a hundred cards and were unwieldy. Over time, however, I managed to assemble this monstrosity I have listed here.
So, for the first time in full writing: My Vampire Ally Deck from Hell:

It is… unreliable. It will run SUPER well when it does, but probably one in every 8 or 10 plays it 100% completely craps itself. It is usually worth the mulligan to make sure you start the game with at least one Plains and one Swamp.
