Classic Rush Deck

Created by Tom Doehne (doehne@agora.rdrop.com).

Here's an example of a classic Brujah Rush deck, for your comments. Built under DC or NL/GT. It seems to be pretty effective against all three classic deck types, but especially so against Malk S&B decks. It ran out of cards once, just before I ousted the last person in a 5-player game. The format should look familiar to anyone who's visited The Corrupter's deck archive....

Commentary from the Creator

This is a classic Brujah Rush deck, using only cards from the original Jyhad set (except for a couple of vampires). I generally try to get out one or two of the larger vampires, and a few of the little ones. The big ones put other vampires in torpor, and the little ones diablerize. The smaller vampires can hold off an S&B long enough for me to get a big vampire out. The princes help me get more than one diablerie out of the small vamps.
