A Reworked version of my original vampire-themed Commander Deck after having taken into account many suggestions.

Revolves mainly around getting Olivia Voldaren on the field ASAP and buffing her with Blade of the Bloodchief, Basilisk Collar, and Illusionist's Bracers as early as possible to turn her into an overpowered killing machine.

Other strategies include:

• Door of Destinies, Coat of Arms, and Konda's Banner + Olivia Voldaren serves to turn even the weakest of creatures into serious threats as EVERY creature is a vampire.

• Cabal Coffers + Liliana of the Dark Realms 's Emblem with Fireball or Banefire can cripple or even kill the enemy with a single hit late-game.

• Blood Tribute + Wound Reflection or Sorin Markov + Wound Reflection are both instant kills as well, as is the Exquisite Blood + Sanguine Bond combo

As for the creatures themselves, I lowered the amount of high-cost creatures since the aforementioned artifacts alongside Curse of Stalked Prey & a few other creature passives eliminates the need for extremely powerful creatures as they can easily stack power/toughness the second they enter play.

Let me know what you think, and of course, suggestions are always welcome!
