How about some actual comments? "this has not worked very well" is
useless, as it does not state why, when and in what circumstances.
Secondly, making me either try to remember what every vamp you have in
there does, when ardb makes it nice and readable is again making your
posts harder to read. If you have the time to make all these posts,
would it really kill you to be slightly more considerate of those who
read thee posts and try to respond to them?
Norm, i usually love your posts as they bring up new and zany ways of
doing things that make my own deckbuilding experience more varied.

But please, try to be a bit more accomodating to those you actually
want to respond to these posts. Unless (and I highly doubt this, but
it is an extreme possibility) this is just onanism.

It is a Street Cred deck. Enkidu Rushes someone, whacks them, plays
Street Cred. Bingo! 2-cap in play.

Key combo Hands for 3, Blur, Form of Mist to continue, Disarm previous
opposing vampire. Anyone else want to block this?

enemies?

Sure it does - it's trying to use Street Crud, Enkidu, and
Trophies. :-)
(No offense to Norm, who's the master of actually making Trophies work
when they can.)

Seriously, though - has anyone gotten Street Crud to perform
reasonably well? I've tried a few times, but can't get it to feel
like it's paying off enough to be worth the slot.

Only 7 Psyches! to handle animalism and gun combat? That's not going
to work.

Yeah? Haven't seen that one. What was the tipping point that made
Street Crud useful? At one blood, it just doesn't feel like enough
bang for the buck, with too many restrictions.

It's not central to the deck. There were 2-3 copies of Cred out of 70 or 75
cards (it's been a long time, and I don't think I have a list for it).
I just remember it being playable pretty much every time it was in my hand.
And since you can play Taste of Vitae _after_ Cred, the cost is often moot.

Is it any wonder this deck doesn't work.

trophys
graverobbing
street creed
disarm
no prevention
16 dom cards and I think? one or two minions w/ dom
trophy retainers and no retainers in the deck
fueled by hearts blood does nothing against Carlton

I have gotten it to work in a different deck which focuses on Beast
putting Street Cred on Tupdogs.

....Generally speaking, any combat card that costs blood should Combat
Ends or cause agg damage, Combat is too much of a crap-shoot to be
wasting your pool just to hit someone harder.
