Suggestions on Rakdos Vamps

Deck Help forum

This deck has been around for a while and has gone through some pretty crazy changes. I recently went away from Vampire Nocurnus in favor of this build because it seems to flow much better and I just feel way better not having to worry about what my top card will be. The deck is VERY creature heavy, even more so than it was originally, which isnt necessarily bad, but its starting feel a little bit like a glass cannon and the sideboard leaves a lot to be desired. I might just be over thinking it, but if anyone wants to take a look and give some suggestions that would be great. I know vampires arnt very good in standard, but this set up does work and I've won with it before. Thanks for any help. The deck is Castle Stromkirk

I think there's a lot of potential for it, just not a lot of wiggle room if that makes sense. Mono red just has so much more to work with than something like Vampires. Having said that, there's a couple things. Markov Blademaster is an idea or Rakish Heir to get things bigger. I don't think these need play sets but something to look at. And if you could fit a Rakdos, Lord of Riots you might be able to flood creatures to make it a little harder on your opponent.

Any of my suggestions though, I think would be asking a bit much as your synergy with the vampires are pretty good already but I just don't think it can be quite as quick as you would like it to be.
