Travelers Obey the Tenets · Columbus (OH), USA

Description: The deck was a lot of fun, but it really needed a lot of cycling. The Recure the Homeland was the all start with Burst of Sunlight and Target Vitals, it really did lots of damage. The trick of this deck is to tool up while bounding bleeds forwards and backwards around the table, the My Enemies Enemy are quite intentional, as this deck doesn't go forward too hard, which means my prey gets going, taking table pressure off my grand predator, I try to fix that here. The allies and Terrell Harding (wider view needs to be here) suck some blood off as a means to stop Deflections when you do lunge forward. In round one after having 2 allies burned and my first vampire with a Vessel, Blood Doll, Ivory Bow and Rutor's Hand on turn 4, I managed to lunge for 12 undeflected 4 turns later with the Heidelberg, all the time just bouncing and tweaking blood off vampires. Society of Leopold takes a very close 2nd to all star card, it really allowed me to stop other methheads as needed. This deck was something I tooled with on JOL, it never did well and I rebuilt it the morning of the event, it does have flow problems, so note if you play it, you will be discarding every turn if you want a chance in hell. Truth be told, my win came from luck, and my ability to capitalize on it. The last bit of advice, ditch the harvest rites, trust me, they suck here. Thanks to Jay for getting such a large showing from Columbus and to the Newark crew for making it out!
