I played this deck a few times now and I really liked how it performed. It can bloat well. Having the 3 big ones and still being on 25+ pool is not an exception.
How do you intend to oust?
Bleeds for one and moderate vote damage. Encourage your prey to go low on pool and don't try to do all the pool damage yourself. Use daring the dawn with a big dude to push through the final vote or the bleed of 5. You need to breed as fast as possible. Avoid to do anything that is not at stealth for the first turns. Only Armin can play freak drive at FOR to untap after an unsuccessful action. Public Vilification on your prey reduces the bloating capacity to your left.
How do you intend to keep from being ousted?
Bloating. Be careful on the villein at the start. You'll need the blood to create rites or make embraces for which you can then Con Boon. Keep away from combat with the chump blockers or with Majesty. Public vilification backwards can soften up a target for a rushing grand predator, or at least takes away 3 blood that does not get used for Gov+Cond.
What do you want your ready region to look like (ie, how many guys are you planning on getting out)?
Ideally: Armin Brenner, Dark Selina, one of the prisci, and all the breeded minions you can afford. As long as the bloat engine is functioning, you can afford to Zillah's Valley and bring out a new 9/10 cap in two turns.
What do you want your average turn to look like?
Bleed with a chump - breed - vote
What's your metagame like? How do your opponents play?
I guess you all know the answer to this one.
What problems have you observed with the deck in play?
Not much. Depending on the game, the ousting power is low, so you need to time your lunge. Some more Daring the Dawn would definitely improve.
I see two ways to improve the deck
1. Get rid of the breed angle and use the 19 cardslots to do more useful stuff such as
- some nasty !brujah combat
- add more damaging votes (banishment, KRC, Neonate Breach)
2. Switch the FOR angle of the breed module to dominate or presence. Some FOR needs to stay, as doing something unblockable with a Creation Rites can be awesome (ranging from bleed-for-one-to-oust over KRC to removing a Pentex).
- pre: in-clan discipline and make those chumps bleed harder
- dom: Dark Selina has dom, so this might be worth exploring
