I know vampires are difficult to built around, as I've been told at my local FNM. I really like the creature type so I went for it anyway. I don't know if I should go for a playset of Captivating Vampire or Stormkrik Captain. I think the first strike is more important since the deck leans aggro. I also like the splash of control that Captivating offers tho. I think being able to steal a creature and sacrifice it for Immersturm Predator is cool but could I can still use my own creatures for it. I like to play Undying Malice with Bloodtithe Harvester so the harvester removes a creature and then come back stronger and with an extra blood token. If Cordial Vampire is out then everyone gets a +1/+1 counter to boot. I also plan on using Undying Malice to also protect Olivia, Crimson Bride. I think Cemetery Gatekeeper is a good stand alone card. If I get creatures out face and cast it and hurt them for trying to play catch up on creatures. But is really works with any card time an opponent's deck is heavy in.

Thoughts are always welcomed!
