Refining Aggression —June 14, 2018

Subbed in Skymarcher Aspirant for Cover of Darkness and Vampire Hexmage for Kalastria Highborn.

Skymarcher Aspirant is an aggressively costed beater in the traditionally weak one-drop slot. The potential to have flying in the mid-game makes the card even better. Cover of Darkness giving fear to all vampires is actually incredibly powerful; however, my meta has been increasingly shifting to have more black and artifact decks. This makes this amazing card far less useful than it would normally be.

Vampire Hexmage is the go-to planeswalker killer. Fortunately for us, she is also a vampire! I should've included her from the beginning. Kalastria Highborn this has been my go-to two drop in my earlier vampire decks for a long time. She's a 2/2 for two with an ability. The problem that arises is that her ability requires mana to use. I have found that while playing the deck, I have precious little mana to spare, and I was usually unable to activate her ability for either cost or color reasons.

Have you had a look at Shadow Alley Denizen? Card's amazing, every time you play a vampire, no matter what colour it is you get to give a dude intimidate triggered from the black vampire token entering. If you play a black vampire you get to give TWO dudes intimidate, or one dude TWO intimidates, if that's your speed.
