Chandra's Revolution was an even more recent followup to Stensia Innkeeper

Actually, tapping lands is purely in , thanks to Stensia Innkeeper, but neither or can freeze lands.

Upvoted, cool deck :D

For my suggestions, I'd run more of the lords/tribal effects (vampires have a ton), and cut some of the more vanilla vampires. I'd search gatherer for any card containing the rule text "vampire" (and limiting to your colors).

Also, EDH is all about huge effects, and Stensia Innkeeper or Night Revelers are going to have a tough time keeping up. I like to imagine the worst case scenario, and see how the creature would do. For instance, your opponent has a Followed Footsteps on a Grave Titan. Something like Bloodline Keeper might stall a bit, but Falkenrath Reaver is just going to get overrun.

My friend has a vampire deck, and some effective bombs that I'd suggest are Anowon, the Ruin Sage, Malakir Bloodwitch, and Patron of the Vein.You could also run more solid, supporty cards like Rakish Heir, Stensia Masquerade, Stromkirk Captain, and Aphetto Dredging. Also, Basilisk Collar, Lightning Greaves, and Swiftfoot Boots are nice for your commander.

Ixalan also gave you a couple more draining cards: Bishop of the Bloodstained, Sanctum Seeker

IMO, burn spells are generally not as good as the straight removal some of the other people suggested. My suggestions would be Sudden Death, Sudden Spoiling, and Urge to Feed, or, if you want a burn package to finish out opponents, Burn from Within, Fall of the Titans, Devil's Play, or Banefire (all of which have some sort of utility/reusability).

Finally, more draw spells make your deck much more consistent. Greed, Arguel's Blood Fast, Toil / Trouble, and Wretched Confluence. Again, the more utility/reusability the card has, the better.

great article. I am a new(er) player and have nevery really played with the choas effects and can undestand why. Another part of reds identity is earth and mountain and hence some land destuction.

Stensia Innkeeper is the new attempt at a possible red ability for standard. I agree Goad in conspiracy was an attempt at how mono red works in standard. Impulse drawing is also very topically red (and obviously being exstensively tested)Spark of Creativity

I think there are two different copies of Stensia Innkeeper in the database (maybe 1 with typo?)

Multiple duplicate cards appear in the EMN spoiler. They are all two separate "cards", one of which is the name of the card misspelled.
