In honor of the newest Sorin and Olivia soon to come out in Shadows over Innistrad I decided to make a vampire commander deck for the both of them. I've seen many B/W vampire decks and many B/R vampire decks but I had a hard time finding anything like this one. I chose Tariel more for her colors than for her ability, there aren't that many Mardu commanders and those that do exist(Kaalia of the Vast) are very expensive and don't make any sense in this deck. Each of the colors contributes in some way to one aspect of the vampires, black is obvious, that's the color where the majority of Vamps are in however it also allows for removal of our opponent's creatures and life. Red serves as a means to get aggressive quick as well as helping dealing burn. Finally white serves as control and life-gain as well as provided a board wipe or two. There are at least two infinite combos that I know of in the deck (sanguine bond + exquisite blood) and (mindcrank + bloodchief ascension). If there are any suggestions as to how I could improve the deck I'd love to hear them.
