Make me some Vampire cards that would make me want to play Vampire tribal instead of Zombie tribal.

OP is updated with my current Utility Land Draft stack, it had been out of date for a long time. Still not sure how to manage the rules on selecting the Cloudpost / Glimmerpost stacks, but would be open to suggestions.

I think one of the big issues with the archetype is that it is so 2-drop heavy. Ajani's Pridemate Scavenging Ooze Gerrard's Verdict Tithe Drinker Lone Missionary Lightning Helix Blood Artist We'll see.

Choose 2: Obzedat, Ghost Council Gerrard's Verdict Tithe Drinker

Bonehoard is often nonembarrassing played on curve. Probably more interesting than something like Deadbridge Goliath

It gains value as the game goes on and provides inevitably because it turns any random duder into a monster. bonehoard

Bonehoard is pretty interesting in a lower power environment. Combat trick with Stoneforge (but usually not), and has overlap with cards like Sewer Nemesis if you want to push it into an archetype. I would say that Stoneforge and Batterskull help control, but the two are so good that any deck...

What are you using to access the forums Bob?

I thought about double Stoneforge. I've also thought about having 0 Stoneforge.

Yes, you can have a sig, but most people don't use them. See my posts for reference. Sig appears only once per thread page though.

They're not powerhouses, but all of them get the job done in my cube. All of them are better in my cube than Force of Will, which possibly doesn't even deserve a slot anymore. Daze is amazing and more blowouty than Mana Tithe. Speaking of which, the most satisfying counter in cubing: Mana Tithe

Dissipate Syncopate Evasive Action Counterspell Daze

How do you keep a cube like this from not being obtuse as fuck for non-designers?

Vess was terrible in my cube ages ago when it was much slower and durdlier and dragoner. Now it's gotta be just, like, marginally more effective than One With Nothing.

The problem with Reanimator is less of power level and more of consistency. It's a very high-variance archetype, coming together and giving the opponent no real say in the game or durdling around and failing to find its pieces. I dunno about you but I've had 20 power on board on Turn 3 with...

Did you forget Dryad Arbor?

Liliana Vess

Also I'd find it really difficult to justify something even more narrow than Deathmark, say, Glare of Heresy. Glare of Heresy

Deathmark Doom Blade You'd have to have a nearly 100% two-color hybrid saturation before they crossed. At full hybrids, Deathmark hits 70% of targets and Doom Blade hits 60% of targets (assuming equal color distribution). But being "too hybrid" was one of the admitted mistakes of the Lorwyn...

Lilly x 2 for black.
