My EDH Vampire Deck write up WIP

The goal is to swarm the opposition with sheer numbers, and pack in as many buffs and utility abilities as possible.

REMOVAL SUITE

Most all Sorcery and Instants are geared towards widespread removal, being able to target as many different types of permanents a possible, including indestructibles. Anguished Unmaking, Utter End, Vindicate allow us to deal with anything, while the rest of the removal suite is geared to be as broad as possible. Mortify also lets us hit enchantments. Swords to Plowshares and Path to Exile surely need no introduction, but they exile any creature, at a pitance, so their clearly must haves. Terminate Lets us get rid of a creature at instant speed, and cant be regend either so thats a nice bonus for only 2 mana Go for the Throat is another nice instant speed removal at only 2 cmc that has the slight drawback of not hitting artifacts. I find this to be fine, since everything other piece of removal we pack in is capable. Consuming Vapors gets around indestructible, and has the added bonus of popping off twice. Crackling Doom another solid piece to get rid of the largest threat among all opponents, and ping in for 2.

Overall, This will allow us to answer enchantments, artifacts, creatures, planeswalkers, the whole shabang.

RAMP SUITE

Bontu's Monument Reducing the cost of all creatures, and chips away at life. Also another way to trigger our infinite combo if it goes online. Caged Sun A solid ramp and anthem. Jet Medallion Reducing the cost of 71% of the deck by 1 colorless adds up pretty quick Orzhov Signet 2 for 1 mana fixer Rakdos Signet 2 for 1 mana fixer Sol Ring Sol ring, yyyyup

CARD DRAW SUITE

While this is not our strongest area, what we do have can be rather efffeciant. This area could use a bit of improvement.

Champion of Dusk Not only does this put a 4/4 body on the board to benefit from all the Lords, and make us tokens, this draws us X cards equal to our vampires, which is often quite a few. While we do lose X life as well, its generally a minor nuisance considering how much life gain we have to work with, its easy enough to recoup in most cases. Twilight Prophet Another body on the board with the added bonus of giving us card draw that will do damage and gain us life. Seems decent. The Cits Blessing is easy to obtain with all our tokens, so it should be able to come online the turn your drop it if you have a great opening, or within 1-2 turns after. Demonic Tutor Fetch any card, seems good Diabolic Revelation Tutor up X cards. Not to shabby considering we can ramp Diabolic Tutor A weaker demonic, but still not bad for 4, go get a card.

So far i'm fairly pleased with how it has been performing, however my biggest issue is getting my mana base is close to optimal as possible. Im open to suggestions to improve and make this the ultimate Vampire Covenant around! Cheers!
