Like most reactionary builds this deck is fairly slow moving. The idea is to get the tag-team combo of Venere and Klaus out, block key actions, grab a .44 and hole up until the table plays out. Once other decks start losing their legs begin turning the screws with a few big bleeds (Palla Grande/Aire of Elation), playing a Smiling Jack and dropping a strategic Pentex Subversion. The lower cap vamps are there purely for weenie support; playing the odd Art Scam and for the Palla Grande bleed push. As always, I over did the master card count. ;)
