Deck Description

Concept... would like to use this sometime soon...
suggestions welcome... main concept... bloodghast, eldrazi monument, blade of the blood chief on any other creature... and Vampire Nocturnus in play... using land to keep them indestructible would be irritating with sorin in play... might be expensive... but effective...

Edit- took nightmare vampire's modifications into consideration it looks better i think and i sideboarded some discard cards in case the opposing hand becomes an issue.

Edit- Removed blood tribute and added 2 swamps... i had made a proxy of it and i would always have blood tribute and sorin and no land to play them... so i removed the less effective one to provide mana for the other...

If you are playing competitively you are going want to cut this closer to 60 cards.

Also, Piranha Marsh makes the deck run slower and Kalitas is WAY more expensive than he is worth, plus you really won't end up using his ability that much in a competitive game. I would suggest

-4 Piranha Marsh
-3 Kalitas

+4 Swamp
+3 Tendrils of Corruption

To get it to 60 cards...

-4 Terramorphic Expanse (you are running mono black, so fetchlands aren't as important)
-3 Consume Spirit (you can sideboard these, and adding Tendrils, less expensive version of Consume)
-3 Blade of the Bloodcheif (I run a vamp deck that used to have Blade and it was not nearly as effective as I hoped it would be)

Mind you, all of these comments are based on the possibility of you playing in a competitive formant (FNM, other tourneys). If this deck is for casual I think naviis is right, you are probably fine.

Check out my Vamp deck if you want more ideas:

Not a problem. I just try to give opinions based on what I have seen by playing a Vamp deck myself. There were a lot of cards that I had in my first deck that I thought would work great, and worked well in casual games, but when I came up against some stronger decks in tourneys I found that they didn't work as well as I though. Blade of the Bloodcheif is a perfect example. I loved the idea of that card, and it worked well in casual games that lasted longer, but when I played tougher decks I found that it just really wasn't as effective as I first thought. It was a huge bummer :(

So, as prompted I'm looking at this compared to my goblin deck. I think as it stands I would have to get a serious edge before your turn 3 or lose entirely. What I'd recommend you sideboard are some weenie creature killers for just that reason.

Have a look at my Blue/Black Control deck for what I mean. Suffocate and Disfigure are awesome for getting rid of stuff like Warren Instigator which can be a real jerk.
