The idea behind this is fairly simple. Spam Vampires onto the field, buff them, get rid of enemies by any possible means.

There are a couple of infinites in Exquisite Blood + Sanguine Bond but nothing too fast.

There is nothing much to the deck apart from massive, terrifying, flying, unblockable vampires. It is not an aggro play, but getting the big boys out is the real goal. Obviously it is highly vunerable to enchantments and artifacts, but it is so fun to play.

Let me know if you find any gaping hole or simple improvements.
