I get that yeah, but since upon my question in the past if the launch

I also don't see it. I can think of several reasons.
1. It's a tack on to most decks that has no real relationship to the
rest of the deck.
1a. People don't think about doing it since they are thinking about
what the core strategy is.
1b. Besides people just not thinking about doing it, most decks I see

What is it you really want to do? Do you really want it to be
wallish? If that's the case, you probably want to add a lot of
intercept. I'm not terribly clear on why Strays are so useful, seems
Raven Spys would be much more so - Eternal Vigilance + Raven Spy + .44
(or whatever) + blood gain for the win; Stray + marginal intercept =

Certainly a possibility, and makes you a bit more flexible, but I like
the certainty of just having the 1 conviction that I know comes out of
the deck when she hits the table, and if I don't draw her, it is only
1 dead card. Sometimes I put 3 conviction in there (one of each) if
I'm using 2x Beatrice in a crypt. But usually, she just gets thrown in

Huh. That's weird. She's sooooo good in pretty much any deck (that
doesn't have other Imbued) at all that can have G4 minions--you throw
her into, well, anything and she either:
-Bleeds for 3 ('cause you have a Strike in the deck) after you rush
your prey's blockers.
or
-Bleeds for 2 at +1 stealth effective ('cause you have a Second Sight

The Underbridge Stray and Sense the Savage Way gives a untap at
superior , will throw in 2 Eternal Vigilance though.
Been thinking of some DEM skill cards and throwing in some Eyes of
Chaos as Ysador has it at superior, but as for votes my meta is very
low so this will suffice for now.

Will change that, was hoping to get pool from the strays being in play
but that will only help fuel weeni decks as the strays are ment to
burn.
Good point, I don't play vote much and always forget about thous.

more off the cuff comments without really reading the whole deck.....
The ! goes before the name to indicate a Sabbat clan, not after it.
!Nosferatu, as in the programming jargon/shorthand for not-Nosferatu.
Why skip Joseph Cambridge if you are going to be voting anyway? Julio
Martinez makes an excellent Cardinal, which makes for an easy Cryptic

I got her in a Jalan-Aajav multi-rush deck with Strike with Conviction
and she does a great job, hell she usually does more pool damage then
Jalan.

It's all there in the VEKN tournament rules [[link]

- New cards and rules are not legal for rated constructed tournaments.
They are, however, legal for rated limited tournaments [rule 2.1];
- Playtesters of card sets used in the event, however, are not

You have 8 untaps (max) and max of 5 intercept (by using up 2 untaps).
You cannot defend Smiling Jack. Eternal Vigilance and Abbot would be
key to making that worthwhile. (And it still wouldn't be, with the

All of your minions are Nosferatu Antitribu.
These should be Consanguineous Boons and never Autarkis Persecutions.
If you are going to vote, the one time political actions pack a big
punch. Politcal Stranglehold, Ancient Influence, Reins of Power, etc.
