No real play notes -- this is a relatively stock Giovanni powerbleed. The AVA was very convenient as nobody ever bothered to take the action to burn it -- I'd have rather had a second one in the deck than the Mausoleum, which got discarded a lot. Same with the Venetian Conference, as I was able to play at least one to good effect in each round, including the final (to torporize a hunting Suhailah). Many people are familiar with the +1 intercept from superior Spectral Divination and will plan around it, so being able to have the +2 intercept coming from Francesca was excellent. (This also let me save the Spectral Divination for extra stealth.) Description: Giovanni Seductive Telemarketer filth, tweaked up for an expected Camarilla-heavy tournament with Venetian Conferences and Gillespi -- also shifted around to be more Deflection-proof with no Conditionings and mostly Scouting Mission/Bondings.
