This has been the deck I've been waiting for!! The return of the Ixalan Conquistadors!! Vampires are my favorite creature type and this deck looks bloody sweet! Liked your call back to Nocturnus....as always, nicely done with these pre-con videos you do. No messing around, you get right to it and provide alot of valuable info.

I'm glad you get value out of the videos. I enjoy talking about Magic and doing deck builds, and even only one person gets something out of what I do, it's worth making the video. I've loved vamps for a while and have Edgar Markov and a Vona build that was great too. These new ones though seem more interesting to build around.

Really cool video, I'm really looking forward for this deck as I'm new to the game and want a Vampire themed deck, and since Edgar Markov is pretty expensive, this one looks really nice, and this additions you named in the video are really great. Thanks! ✌✌

You're welcome. Edgar is ridiculously pricey and it's surprising that it hasn't seen a reprint yet. I like that these new precons as each of them has at least one big money reprint in them and they are great to customize.

Great video man! Loved it! Some includes if you’re really pushing for the vampire sac into 4/3’s; Drivnod, the new Ojer that triples tokens, or even Teysa Karlov bc the death trigger will double up. Two draws, two 4/3s with vigi and lifelink (if u put in teysa). I am also adding the new Everything Comes to Dust from the dr who set as it exiles everything except vampires if u convoked with vamps. And lastly, I had a Sorin, imperious bloodlust laying around, so I’m adding it in, just for those heavy cmc vampires that u can cheat in for just 3 mana. Additionally, triggering the lifelink on all those benefactors of life gain. Super excited for this deck!

I'm glad you liked it. For these precon upgrades I try to stay as close to in-world themes as I can and tried only adding cards from Ixalan sets or Ixalan set art from Core sets and March of the Machine (I made an exception for Noctunus because I like the card and it looks like it could be something Aclozotz created). But all of those are great suggestions if theme isn't a concern.

One card that I added that has been fun was Liliana’s Contract. Since Clavileño makes your vampires demons in addition to their other types, it’s a fun alternate win condition

Thank you. I also added Capitvating Vampire because then once I start taking creatures, I can make them demons and get more value off of their demise. @@twilightscallmtg

I'll go back and listen. As for the decks, I'd say they are probably the most equal of the 4 new ones. Hakbal can spiral fast if built to push the counters and triggers, but the vampire deck has a heavy threat density and the 4/3 flyers it can pump out can overwhelm quickly if you lean into that side of the deck. Personally, I would likely go with the vampires as I find the commander choices in the precon and the main set that work in it, more interesting. Merfolk seem very one note (+1/+1 counters) where as the vanpires can go with the token route, a couple flavors of aristocrats, or a "voltron" style build depending on which legend from the set or precon you use at the helm.

Instead of roaming throne you should use teysa karlov. She does the same thing but she also gives all your tokens vigilance and lifelink. So all those demon tokens you make will have flying on top of those.

Teysa is good, but for these videos, I went with sticking as close to Ixalan as I could. If I'm going for max power/value, I'd actually run both in this deck. Also, Throne doubles up all of the triggers on our vampires, not just death triggers, including Carmen or the new Vito as those look at when a creature is sacrificed, not going to the grave. Throne also doubles up the following triggers that Teysa does not: Amalia, Bishop of Rebirth, Bishop of the Bloodstained, Champion of Dusk, Charismatic Conqueror, Dusk Legion Zealot, Mavren Fein, Patron of the Vein (etb triggers), Twilight Prophet, Sanctum Seeker, and Welcoming Vampire.

@@twilightscallmtg oh I did not know that! There are alot of death triggers in this deck though so I will definitely be using her. All the flying bat tokens from Baron of the bats and all the flying demon tokens from the commander and a few of the other cards don’t have lifelink or Vigilance. But almost all the vampire tokens you make do have lifelink and/or flying. So I figured giving flying to all your tokens on top of vigilance would suit the theme of this deck and help a lot. Will be a lot easier also to get all of that lifegain if all of your demon and bat tokens can attack without having to worry about most blockers. They will be able to defend right after attacking and getting the lifegain due to not having to tap after because of the vigilance, which is just extra defense. So even though she’s not technically part of the theme, she synergizes and works very well with this deck imo lol.

Yeah, Throne copies ALL triggers of the chosen creature type, so you get things like double life drain off Sanctum Seeker or double tokens off Charismatic Conqueror (which guarantees you 1 token even if they do tap their creature since they can't tap the same creature or artifact twice to prevent one of the triggers). Lots of possibilities and Roaming Throne is quickly becoming one of my favorite cards in this set because it copies so much. As for Teysa, if I'm min/maxing the deck, I'd run her and use Anointed Procession/Mondrak/Ojer Taq for token silliness.

Glad you enjoyed it. I think the only reason it hasn't seen a reprint is that his Eminence ability is the most brutal of that cycle, but he's by far the best Vampire commander since it's so strong and gets you all the red Innistrad vampires too.

Why not Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose in the upgrade section? Vito is so good here, even as a combo piece with Exquisite Blood.

For that exact reason I had him on my list, then nixed him. I'm not a fan of infinite combos that are that easy to set off as they feel unearned and only urge the use of tutors to get said combos online as the primary wincon over actually caring that the deck is even a vampire deck.
