Mage Power

Description: Weenie ally swarm using one of the most versatile ally in the game. Put out a couple vamps, recruit like crazy and start the onslaught. Once the recruiting is done, the vamps are here mostly to hunt and bloat with the Blood Dolls or bounce bleeds and block unharmful vampires. The rest is all done by the nephandi and Ossian (who can be a real beast with Memories + Trap). Since you only have to spend about 8-10 pools for vamps, you can afford to recruit about 4 or 5 allies and still have a decent pool cushion. The deck fears intercept and the Creepshow is often not enough, but you can bait them out if you have multiple Nephandus in your hand and try to slip one by. Heavy combat is bad as well, which the Québec metagame is full of, but the Memories help a lot here, hence the high number of them in the deck; just remember that Carrion Crows are your worst enemy (about 1 deck out of 3 played those during the tournament, so I'm surprised I managed to do that well).
