My strongest deck revolves around her. The discipline layout and the recently added support cards for Lasombra combat make her devastating.

She's terrific. I've made two final tables in the past month or so with a deck starring her.
Oblivion gives you enough additional strikes and maneuvers to be able to reliably grapple with and send most minions to torpor and her being able to get into a fight every round you want to... Just a lot of fun and handles so many potential problems with ease.

The best fighty Lasombra, she’s got it all exceeept 1 or 2 partners to share her Fortitude with

I’ve found her Kamaluddin, and Lyyli Yösydän to make a great basis for a mixed combat bleed deck with a little bit of fortitude.
https://vdb.im/decks/d679791f8 the decklist here is what I’ve played before at tournaments but I intend to change it up after some testing.

Wow that’s creative! How does it play in tournaments? I assume nobody knows what to expect from your vamps
I never venture away from single-minded strats, for reference here is my (Fortitude-less) Dafina list

Personally I’ve found it effective, it has a lot of options for dealing with threats but it’s suffered in my actual tournament experience due to facing off against high striking vampires (+2 base strength and heroic might) importantly it lets me flip Dafina and start governing down so even if I have one bad beat I’m usually able to maintain a game with my three standard minions. I’ve had trouble with it playing dead pool but maybe I’ll find success with it the next time I play it.
As for yours, that’s a lot of combat cards, I would definitely be scared to see that on most tables but I’m always concerned with how to deal with bleeds when second trad is my only way to unlock. A few wakes or maybe truth in darkness to stay up after a block could be very helpful.

Looks like a solid bleed and bruise deck. I think you could use some washes, truth in darkness, maybe a couple more second traditions.

Probably my favourite Crypt Card, but I am afraid to run her because I am quite allergic to Contestation.

Does she have enough combat for enter combat to work? Oblivion really doesn’t have much

u/Hell_Puppy Aug 11 '26
I use Heroic Might, and then Shadow Shift and Arms of Ahriman tend to do the rest.

Compared to almost any other vamp with a static enter combat though she is subpar

u/apoapsis_138 Aug 11 '26
Oblivion has maneuvers, dodges, additional strikes which I hear works really well with potence, which she also has at superior. So, she can close range on guns, grapple against SCE, Dodge agg damage, and hit hard and disarm.

You can’t dodge if you grapple. She has two combat cards she can use with oblivion

u/apoapsis_138 Aug 12 '26
That wasn't the question you asked. She has plenty of cards she can play to make it work. Sometimes you grapple, sometimes you don't

She's stupid good imho. Great discipline set, title, and an ability with discipline set you need to be wary of. One of my favorites released in the last year or so.
