Mardu Vampires

Suggestions

Updates Add

Sorin, Imperious Bloodlord to replace Mindcrank

---- You're already not running Bloodchief Ascension or any of the other typical 2-card combos in color (ex. Sanguine Bond + Exquisite Blood), so it's a powerful piece without it's partner(s). Beavis without Butthead, if you would. Sorin has multiple ways to contribute to your vampire centric game plan, including being able to cheat a vampire from hand into play with his -3.

Henrika Domnathi to replace Bloodgift Demon

---- Cheaper card, options for what you need over 3 turns. In tribe + good beater.

Florian, Voldaren Scion to replace Taurean Mauler

---- Effective card draw/selection on a solid body with first strike.

Voldaren Estate to replace Path of Ancestry

Haunted Ridge to replace Exotic Orchard

Bleachbone Verge to replace Orzhov Basilica

Blazemire Verge to replace Rugged Prairie

Sunbillow Verge to replace Boros Garrison

Arcane Signet to replace Worn Powerstone

---- Faster mana/color fixing that doesn't require you to take a turn off. The deck is hungry for colors.

NIghthawk Scavenger to replace Vampire Nighthawk

---- Strict upgrade that can be bigger.

Ruthless Lawbringer to replace Vindicate

---- Similar removal at sorcery speed (minus the ability to hit a land). You get a vampire for the effort that's decently statted. Sac a token, and Edgar's ability will have you getting a token to replace it. It's almost a 1:1.

Midnight Arsonist to replace Olivia, Mobilized for War

---- Blow out potential for non-mana rocks vs an expensive way to grant haste to one of your creatures. She's a decent body and rarely much else.

Cordial Vampire to replace Mirror Entity

---- Naturally going to grow your army as things die vs needing to sink the mana all at once.

Redemption Choir to replace Bishop of Rebirth

---- Very likely to always have Coven to trigger the reanimation. You get it on a body that reanimates on ETB and attack, for 1 mana less, vs only on attack. It's also a permanent with cmc3 or less and not just a creature.

Dusk Legion Sergeant to replace Yahenni, Undying Partisan

---- Cheaper to cast and has the potential to blank a boardwipe by sacrificing it if you have the mana up. Yahenni can only save itself.

Markov Baron to replace Legion Lieutenant

---- Likely to be free or cheaper with tapping creatures for Convoke, also has lifelink. Added benefit of being able to be cast as it's discarded.

Preacher of the Schism to replace Dark Impostor

---- Dark Impostor is a very expensive means of removal, with 9 mana needed to remove the first creature. Preacher just does more of what your deck already wants to do.

Crossway Troublemakers to replace Olivia Voldaren

Additional cards to keep an eye out for:

Bloodletter of Aclazotz to replace ???

---- There's been a ton of great vampires to come out since the deck was made. Olivia's a decent mana sink, but at a rate of 7 mana to steal something, she's pricey. With Bloodletter you're not losing a flying body to block with, and it being a damage multiplier makes for bigger turns.

Charismatic Conqueror to replace Gifted Aetherborn

---- Charismatic Conqueror will generate a TON of value over a game.

Savai Triome to replace Nomad Outpost

---- Incremental upgrade. Allows for it to be discarded to draw when you're desperate. Also counts as all 3 land types for things like Dragonskull Summit to ETB untapped.

Stroke of Midnight to replace Mortify

---- Wider range of targets for the cost of giving them a 1/1 human token

Chronicle of Victory to replace ???

---- Could be a potential deck top-end card to provide a ton of value in a single card.

You'll also have Baron Bertram Graywater available in the bundle of cards being sent over to consider.
