This is the original Mono-Black version of my paper Vampires, but I'm currently using a Rakdos build. Feel free to check it out At Dawn They Sleep

Wincons:

• Vampire Nocturnus gives a powerful buff to every vampire
• Captivating Vampire gives strenght and can add enemy creatures to our unholy ranks

Bulk of the Army:

• Vampire of the Dire Moon and Gifted Aetherborn compose the Deathtouch/Lifelink duo
• Indulgent Aristocrat has Lifelink and can provide a mass boost. Good combo with Cordial Vampire
• Vampire Cutthroat is a sneaky one that does his fair share of damage and healing
• Cordial Vampire feeds the army whenever something dies

Non-creature spells:

• Fatal Push is one of the best removal spells in the format
• Thoughtseize checks and picks apart enemy hands
• Sign in Blood is great for hand refueling or an extra 2 damage

Sideboard:

• Gray Merchant of Asphodel is an alternate win-con that uses my Devotion to Black
• Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose is another win-con that effectively turns Lifelink into damage
• Temporal Extortion can really turn the tables if played with timing. An overlooked card that won me many matches
• Relic of Progenitus is useful against graveyard strategies

Don't know which cards to add to complete my Sideboard this time, would appreciate some help!
