Strategy Notes:
- The Tremere discipline spread makes for a challenging clan. They have dominate, for large bleeds, but no stealth. They have Thaumaturgy for combat, but no other supporting combat discipline. I feel the Tremere need to have a strong combat package because it discourages others from blocking your actions, while allowing you to max imize your damage when you block their actions. A fair amount of equipment is typically required to support a thaumaturgy combat package, which is what you see in this deck. The Pier 13, is a equipment/location that, once equipped, allows you to automatically equip equipment cards from your hand.
- This deck wants to burn lots of of opposing minions. Burning a vampire requires you to deliver 2 points of aggravated damage (via Walk of Flames) to a vampire who does not have any blood at all. Typically the best way to do this is via Trap, which will force combat to continue round after round and then to use Theft of Vitae to remove all the blood from the opposing vampire, and then nex t round use Walk of Flames to burn the opposing minion. The Hawg and Mob Connections are powerful in this deck because of how 2nd round focused the combat tends to be.
- I’ve loaded this deck with a LOT of intercept. It should be able to catch any bleeders that dare come at you and, even better, occasionally redirect them towards your prey.
