Deck Name: New Noise
Description: This deck is inspired by something I saw David Litwin play on the last day of the Week of Nightmares in 2024. While it is absolutely heinous and will not be making friends at most tables; in the current meta it is consistently hitting 3 players at a table, before factoring in the Puppet Master's. To play this deck you just have to accept collateral damage.
Pretty straightforward plan, get a big Vamp out use fourth tradition to get a second and start throwing camarilla segregations's into play without regard of the results. Methuselahs will die and sometimes not in the exact order you need but the constant pool damage almost always leaves you 3-4 vps to collect. The deck could possibly be juiced up with some more votes that deal repetitive pool damage, but the deck flows so well currently. Also do not forget to abuse Juliet's text when able, that extra hand size is enormous with a 60 card deck.
The final was pretty explosive and the seating was as followed.
Erik (hecata servitor's)-->
Brad (G6-7 Toreador Vote)-->
Karl (Protean/Animalism Baron bleed and block)-->
Myself (Camarilla Poison)-->
Jay (Brujah Barons)
Jay was almost crippled immediately as my opening hand dictated that all I could do was put Camarilla Segregation's into play and bloat with villeins. Pretty shortly into the game and before he could establish some rushes backwards, he had only one vampire, grey thorne and was low on pool. All of the players that are able to go ahead and sacrifice a vampire at this stage, which is massive to this decks success. You want minions off the table. Shortly after I fire an ashur and take back all of the camarilla segregation's and stealth I had played to that point. To his credit Jay did burn his last vampire to stop himself from taking camarilla segregation damage. By time I finally got him it was clear Erik had Brad down to a point where he was going to die, so I had to kind of sit still for a moment. Brad and Erik trade punches for a while but by time Erik finally gets Brad he is still only sitting around 7-8 pool roughly. The next turn comes around and I'm at 3 pool and Karl is at 4 with a vampire with a vessel. I have four Camarilla Segregation's in play therefore the vessel needed to go down and he is unable to get me because even with club illusion he can't get both bleeds to land. By this point Erik is at 1 and Karl is as well. I pass turn and they both die giving me the table in a pretty down to the wire game. One blood goes any other way in this game and I lose, which is maybe the most fun way for games to end.
