i had great fun with my American-style weenie pot deck on Saturday and it
set me thinking about other weenie rush decks. ANI/FOR ought to be even
better, methinks, specially if you have a few dog-packs. The basic idea
would be to start the deck off as classic weenie for/trap, but you would
aim to make as many minions as possible ANI and FOR, and you would be
going for DoTB, Dawn op, Freak Drives and each of your teeny-weenies
taking out three vamps every turn [Bum's Rush, Ambush and Haven
uncovered]. Now THAT should be fast enough to make combat competitive!
i've never seen this kind of deck in action, however, nor do i recall it
being talked about, at least not in exactly these terms. Does that mean
it's been tried and it sucks, or is there some other reason why this
can't work?

Crypt would be 12-ish cheap vamps with at least ani or for, ranging from
March and Uriah up to 5-6 cap Gangrels and Ravnos. Library would be
something like the following:

19 MASTERS
4 x ani
4 x for
3 x Effective Management
4 x Haven Uncovered
2 x Info Highway
2 x Tribute

16 ACTIONS
6 x Bum's Rush
6 x Ambush
4 x Tier of Souls [?]

38 COMBAT
8 x Trap
12 x DoTB
3 x Terror Frenzy [?]
2 x Aid from Bats
7 x Unflinching Persistence
6 x Skin of Steel

2 RETAINERS
2 x Dog Pack

15 MODIFIERS
8 x dawn Op
7 x Freak Drive

Maybe you don't really need the retainers, and maybe there should be some
blood gain in there too - Tastes, perhaps. Carrion Crows would obviously
be nice in this. But really i am interested in people's prior experience
of this kind of thing, if any. If the deck idea is novel, of course we
will only find out whether it is any good or not by playing it! Hmmm,
actually it's NOT that novel, is it? it's kind of a variation of the
weather control/Skin of Night deck. Anyway, i'd still like to know if
anyone has played around with this concept before!
