Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"The vampires are hungry for human blood. Trynn, Champion of Freedom has perfected her skills serving humans to her partner, Silva, Devourer of the Free. Now, she lends her talents to satisfy the hunger of the vampires. Humans controlled by any player are equally as delicious and easy to manipulate in the eyes of our vampires.\n\nThis deck is a vampire kindred/typal with a focus on creating human tokens and sharing the tokens with opponents. \n\nThe key vampire creatures in this deck benefit from sacrificing human creatures and/or are stronger when opponents control human creatures. The commander supports this goal by creating human creatures. Other supporting spells give human tokens or even the token-creating engines to my opponents. This deck contains spells that turn humans I control to vampires, allowing them to benefit from the typal support. With the understanding that I am gifting creatures to my opponents, vampires that benefit from the deaths of other creatures also play a prominent role in keeping the balance in my favor. And, of course, the deck contains typical vampire and typal support.
