It's not a great deal, and there are many other decks more powerful, but it has served me well.

Hover over cards for details, click for permalink
Deck import code : [Select]
5uk 5uk 5uk 5uk 5uk 5uk 5uk 5uk 5uk 5uk 5uk 5uk 5ul 5ul 5ul 5ul 5ul 5ul 5up 5up 5up 5uq 5ur 5us 5us 5us 5ut 5ut 5ut 5ut 5ut 8pt


The damage source is provided by the dragons.
The Vampires can prevent you from loosing health in small amounts, and also "eat" some enemy's destroying spells (if you play them without dragons on the deck).
I use Drain Life to kill dangerous creatures, (Pharaohs, boosting creatures before they are stronger, etc.)
Steal is so great I added a fourth one :)

Although I killed a FG with this (actually with 3 "steal" cards), all my other attempts have failed.
It works very good for me in AI3, and, good enough in AI5/4.

I might take out a vampire first in case the enemy has a spell that would insta-kill my dragon, but I tend to wait for quanta to raise and play dragons. Their damage is what will make you win, so the sooner the better.

If the enemy uses a problematic weapon (Eternity, Owl's Eye..) I steal both the weapon and a tower of its element, and use it back :)

NOTE: The original deck was the one for starters, with pests. But they didn't work for me when the enemy had a good amount of quanta generation.

NOTE2: It is my first post, so if I did anything wrong please tell me and I'll try my best to fix it :) Thanks for your time!

6x Black Dragons is a bit of a problem since you may be quanta-tied and you would continue to just draw dragons. I would do -2 less dragons, add one more Minor Vampire. 4 Dragons is enough.

EDIT: Also remove some Obsidian Pillars and put Dark Pendulums instead, it's a small defence against Earthquake/Quicksand. I know it's one card, but Pendulums do the same work as the Pillars.

Starter deck?Has 6 dragons,and a vamp dagger.
Actually 6 dragons cost a lot.
You know, a long time ago being crazy meant something. Nowadays everybody's crazy.

I also started playing a similar deck. In IA3 is relatively easy win, but the probability of victory in A4 is low. then, you really see that this deck is useless. There are many better decks. Do not recommend it for beginners because is an expensive deck. original darkness cover has only a black dragon and has not any minor vampire. One black dragon costs 106 electrum and one minor vampire costs 57. Finally you have spent almost 1000 electrum. Is too expensive for newbie players and too weak for veteran players.

I don't even have a vampire stiletto. Misleading title.
