Revision 3 —Oct. 23, 2012

Took out Sign in Blood for Phyrexian Arena. The long term draw power was more useful and the life loss was no problem with all the life gain. Also took out Corrupt for Profane Command because profane command is just better.

The only problem with Hex is that if your opponent can make just one of the creatures not a legal target for the spell, the whole thing fizzles. I would kill one of mine with Drana to make the whole thing go away. That said, I really like the deck. + 1 from me and I may totally steal this from you and make it in paper. Only thing that gives me pause are the rituals. I don't know that the mana excel will help that much in an EDH game. Also maybe try to get a Beseech the Queen in here since you have some swamp fetching and other tutors to get more lands out if you need it. Good lookin deck.

Thanks so much! I'll be honest I didn't know this existed! I will definitely look into getting a copy. And I haven't found them to be much help but I haven't pulled them either. They are basically for adding just a bit more to Consume Spirit and Drana herself. But i will definitely get me a copy of that.

id add Phyrexian Arena , Bloodgift Demon , Decree of Pain , Attrition , Increasing Ambition , Polluted Mire for a swamp, Bojuka Bog for a swamp, Barren Moor for a swamp, Dark Impostor , and Underworld Connections and i think that Anowon, the Ruin Sage or Kalitas, Bloodchief of Ghet both make better commanders than drana

i would also consider removing the following: Guul Draz Vampire , in a format where everyone starts at 40 life, this will be a dead card 90% of the time, Dark Ritual , Cabal Ritual , yeah, these cards are big name cards and they might be fun sometimes, but in a deck which doesn't really have crazy combos and 0 storm, these are just not cards you are going to ever want to have in hand past turn 3 or 4, Pulse Tracker , at best, its a 1 drop that maybe deals damage early game before becoming meaningless at around turn 3 (when decks start dropping midling value creatures like Solemn Simulacrum ) and at worst its a 1/1 unblockable that you lose after the first time you attack with it, this card just isnt worth the playing. Child of Night , again, you want your vampires to be doing things, and i think that this vampire really doesnt do much. true, it might gain you 2-4 life, but you have enough lifegain in the deck as it is that i do not think you would ever really want to play this card

Unmake can't be used in this deck, since it has white in its color identity.
