Deck Help: Rebekka

Hello All. Last night, I made 2 decks and took apart two decks. By the end of the night, I had taken apart the two new ones and made the following (I think) bizarre deck. Much of the inspiration for this deck came from Errol Trepanier and his few vampire decks. This one is based on Rebekka, Chantry Elder of Munich. It won each game last night (It tied to win the last game), but each time by the skin of its teeth. I know that my deck is precarious, and easily toppled. Help me fix that. Thanks! Here's The deck: Basic Concept CTB and Life Boon (SPTR environment) The deck still needs a name. Crypt: (x7) Rebekka, Chantry Elder of Munich, 8 capacity pot PRE AUS THA; +1 stealth on each action; +1 bleed vs Malks (x3) Antoinette DuChamp, 1 capacity pre cel; burns an additional blood on Celerity strikes/actions (x2) Igo the Hungry, 1 capacity pre pro; does not get +1 stealth while hunting ----- Library: Masters Legendary Vampire (x1) Misdirection (x4) Blood Doll (x4) Giant's Blood (x1) Secure Haven (x3) Elysium: The Arboretum (x3) KRCG News Radio (x2) Information Highway (x2) Academic Hunting Ground (x2) The Rack (x2) Chantry (x2) Life Boon (x5) Actions: Rampage (x2) Social Charm (x10) Pulse of the Canaille (x3) Rutor's Hand (x1) Tremere Justicar (x1) Praxis Seizure: Barcelona (x1) Dramatic Upheaval (x2) Outcast Mage (x2) Laptop Computer (x2) Palatial Estate (x1) J.S. Simmons Esq. (x1) Mr. Winthrop (x1) Other Cards: Aire of Elation (x8) Wake with Evening's Freshness (x6) Majesty (x9) Total: 81 Cards I plan on getting more Legendary Vampire-s, Rutor's Hand-s, Palatial Estate-s, and maybe throwing in some Inverary Scotland's. The deck will basicly pick on someone other than my prey, most often my grandprey, or predator, (D)-bleeding them into a pulp. It will then Life Boon them and pick on someone else. In the end game, it is wicked, unless playing a good intercept deck. I want suggestions on cards to add/subtract to make it happier, and keep my Rebekka safe. Thanks!

What I can't understand is why someone would use such a deck when the possibility of your needed vampire(s) are contested. Unless the theme is "weenie vamps that tend to get burned alot", I personally do not put more than 2 of any vampire out of this fear. ^ ^ | ^ \|/ ha...@shadow.net <---x---> Scott Marcellus /|\ http://anshar.shadow.net/~havok V | V V

It will then Life > Boon them and pick on someone else. [SNIP] I first started thinking about something like this when we were on the thread analyzing possible victories based on withdrawing. Problem is that you can't play life boon on your turn. Maybe you let the last blood be taken by your victim's predator and then you play your Life Boon. Or do you play with the house rule allowing Master:Oot's on your own turn? My withdraw deck (in the works) uses deflections to take out my victim's last pool and then I can play the life boon!

I'm flattered but I went over the deck and can't seem to find my influence, but hey I'll take it anyway ;) Errol T.

The Rules Team, however, does hold with the (D)-bleed-as-omni-directability- granting position, so it is official. -- L.

I don't always but do on occasian build crypts around one vamp then throw in others usally 1 large and a couple of small ones like the crypt shown in this deck and you focus the library around that vamp they are usally pretty effective but I have found that its usally one thing there completely week on. ie I made a deck around Lucrecia with Assault Rifles and nimble feet with intercept and bums rushes I used to make swiss cheese out of every vamp I could then one fateful game I came across Mr. Ravnos and his Steal weapons as an action and ol'Lucrecia was a victim to her own Gun. Oh well. Errol T.
