Talking about Huitzilopochtli, I'm still searching a way to play him efficiently in a Great Beast deck.
Compared to Cybele:
- he doesn't have a discipline that allows him to untap
- his additional MPA is more costly
- he has Dominate
- he's less likely contested
The main thing is that he has Dominate. But what to do with it? Obedience is nice in the early game, what else? Mind Rape is a bit costly (and what to do with the vampire once it's stolen?)

The thing is that the staple Dominate cards are not very good in a Great Beast deck:
- Govern the Unaligned: superior isn't useful, you could achieve the +2 bleed with a free Intimidation
- Conditioning: +3 bleed is great, but is it better than a Sense the Sin that is polyvalent? The inferior level of Conditioning is of no use here
- Deflection: how many would you put in a Great Beast deck that bloats a lot?
- Obedience: the only card whose usefulness is quite clear for me
- Mind Rape: what to do with the stolen vampire?
- ?
