Notes:
I got bored with my usual build, so I changed it.  This is how the deck is built as is.  I want a playset of dark rituals, dismembers, and nighthawks though.  I'm a bit undecided on necropolis regent over 2 more blade of the Bloodchief.  What do you think?  Suggestions?

1 regent IMO.  3 dark rituals is a good number too as it is a pain drawing them when you dont need em.  My fav in these builds is {Necropotence}.  {bloodthrone vampire} combo with {bloodghast} and {blade of the bloodchief} is fun too.

Ok, dumb question time.  What is so great about necropotence??

It can draw you a ton of cards. In Magic, life is a resource to be used, and paying life to draw cards is always powerful.

When I first saw the card, I thought it was junk. I decided to do some reading up on it, and eventually made a deck from it. Keeping a constant hand of seven(or however much you want) is amazing. Once you get a couple {Ivory Tower}s out, things gets ridiculous. Very powerful card.

I'd replace those dismembers with stab wounds. They have been doing awesome for me

{Stab Wound} isn't bad, but it doesn't quite have the same effect as {Dismember}. I use dismember to knock out {Loxodon Smiter}, {Sublime Archangel}, {Thundermaw Hellkite}, etc.
