Hurray! Another deck!
Focus on dealing heavy poison damage with your Deathstalkers, and deal heavy normal damage with your dragons, while using Minor Vampires to keep your HP steady!

Modifications:
This is quite important, so I left this out of the spoiler: You can replace Plague and Drain Life with Parasites. (Thanks, Elbrin!)
Spoiler for Hidden:
If you lack a Arsenic; replace it with a Dagger. Arsenic can also be replaced with a Vampire Stiletto.
Drain Life can be replaced with Poison. (Plague can also be replaced with Poison / Drain Life.)
Liquid Shadow can easily replace the Minor Vampires.
Please post feedback!

Ever consider using parasites for CC? They make excellent use of :darkness/:death synergy. You could take out the plagues and drain lifes for a few ;)

Personally, I feel like your deck is trying to do too many different things at the same time. I would pick a focus and run with it. Do you want to smack the opponent with Dragons? Or poison them to death? Minor vamps aren't very useful without buffs / many copies of them, why not chuck them out? If you're worried about health, pack a liquid shadow to cast on one of your dragons instead.

Example pooped together by me, use as inspiration. Probably pretty bad as is, so tweak them it a little if you decide to try it out.

I agree with Elbirn, stick to one tactic. If it's mainly poison, don't add burstdamage with dragons. Add something that has a synergy with poison - defense, that is. You could combine dragons with liquid shadow, or add bonewalls, CC, ... There are many options.

Thanks for that idea!
The Dragons are extra backup VS Purify, and incase of immortal shields.
Vamps are for early-game damage and a light source of healing.
But your point about Liquid Shadow is good...
Prehaps I'll add that to the Modifications spoiler.
When in doubt: Freeze.

This deck is a pretty good bronze league farmer, but vulnerable to shields, unless you get a lucky steal handy. a little more permanent control would be nice.
