First time building w/o an online reference. Kinda just pooled some cards I've collected into what I'm hoping is a 75% vampire tribal deck.

Any suggestions on tweaks or upgrades are more than welcome.

The logic in card choices was to have a deck that can go wide w/ Edgar Markov's eminence while staying low to the ground and use those tokens for utility. Most of the card choices have lifegain but also a few life taxing effects for when sacking tokens. I also tried to include some anthem or counters effects as bonuses when either sacking a token or doing combat damage.

I'm sure that's a pretty spread out focus but this is my first full brew not using any netdecking references.

A few of the card choices are specific to my group's meta, Nephalia Academy is in the deck against a Nekusar in the group and the Burn From Within is against Indestructible capabilities in one of the decks.

I was lacking a little in card draw so Warlord's Fury is a temporary fix for draw until I figure out an affordable upgrade.

I tried to keep things as synergistic as possible with the cards in my collection. This is mostly a budget deck but if you can recommend an upgrade under the $10.00 per card range, it's definitely w/in the budget for this deck.

There are a few wipes in the maybeboard that I'm trying to figure out what to swap out for so any suggestions at all would be greatly appreciated.

Update: Sideboard is wipes and other cards I currently own and are considering for the deck. Maybeboard are cards I'm looking at purchasing for upgrades on the deck.

08/30 update: upped the power level a bit by adding some faster lands, better creatures and some wipes
