Vampires everywhere!

"Well that escalated quickly!" fits this deck like a glove :)

Vampires Show

-Captivating Vampire 1 of 2 key vampires in the deck. Buffs your early game vamps and offers insane utility later in the game.

-Vampire Nocturnus 2 of 2 key vampires in the deck. Guaranteed buff (Lands don't count as black permanents though) as the deck is monoblack.

-Gatekeeper of Malakir The deck revolves around keeping your opponents board clear and this guy is a frickin' beast at that.

-Pulse Tracker 1 drop that deals damage even if blocked (Wall of Essence is not a friend of this guy).

-Vampire Cutthroat My latest finding from the new set and even if some don't consider it worthy, I think it's a superb 1 drop for mono B vamps.

-Vampire Lacerator 1 drop 2/2, that has a downside not even worth mentioning in this deck. Awesome card.

-Vampire Nighthawk 2/3 Flying.. Deathtouch.. Lifelink..... I'd put 8 here if I could :D.

Removal Show

-Bile Blight Mainly for removing tokens, but is really good against any ramp creature deck too.

-Go for the Throat Cheap target removal.

-Grasp of Darkness Gets rid of almost anything you could have trouble with early.

-Urge to Feed More removal for early threats. Wait for an attack, debuff the attacker and tap your defending vamps for permanent buffs.

-Duress You can go for the pricier versions of this (Inquisition of Kozilek or Thoughtseize), but this does the exact job I want it to do.

Sideboard Show

-Dark Betrayal 1CMC destroy spell.. Duhh..

-Doom Blade In case Go for the Throat steps on some artifacts.

-Dragon's Claw I don't like burn decks :(.

-Extirpate Disrupts combo decks and removes every copy of any spell that poses a threat.

-Relic of Progenitus Golgari and Snapcaster Mage ain't got sh#t on me :).

-Ruinous Path Target removal for Planeswalkers specifically.

-Drown in Sorrow Against swarming.

+1 if you dig it and leave a shoutout even if you think this needs to be deleted! :)

And mad props for YamishiTheWickedOne for giving insight into playing vamps and providing great suggestions for the build! Go check his decks!

Considering Painter's Servant to make the lands B for Vampire Nocturnus. Worth ?
