    Nothing. Blood of Kings is not an upkeep. You can ignore the defensive bonuses it grants with certain models (Gallant has Blessed, etc...) But you cannot cancel the spell. Your only solutions are to prevent him from casting it, or just powering through it.

    However, if you have Epic Alexia, and you're standing within 3" of Vlad and you have a soul token, you can Arcane Vortex it.

    Eiryss1 can make it so he doesn't cast it again on the following turn.

    You can also just play Retribution. In that case, not only will you get to ignore the increase to DEF and ARM, you'll also get to ignore the terrain and his entire army!

    I'm pretty sure Precursors and Harlan Versh have Blessed and ignore the bonuses from Blood of Kings. Orin Midwinter also helps by preventing casting it, if you can save him until Vlad remains mostly alone and tries to solo your army.

    Gallant doesn't have Blessed. I wish he did.

    Dang! Well then, Constance and Precursors seems to be the best way to fix his little red wagon with Transferrence and the minifeat.

    The best way to get around blood of kings is to auto knockdown Vlad. How do you do this? Simple!

    Step 1 activate a unit or solo and run it into B2B with Vlad, be sure to have its back facing some sort of friendly warjack.
    Step 2 Activate said warjack and slam or 2 hand throw friendly model into Vlad.
    Step 3A Shoot Vlad with either Eyriss to strip off any focus he was camping.
    Step 3B Murder Vlad.

    Easy Peasy!

    Purgation is not going to help you here...

    Does Alexia still have Arcane Disjunction? If so, just getting her within 8" will cause Vlad to have a Bad Day.

    IME it'll cause Alexia to have a Bad Day, or at least a terminal few seconds. She's not that hard to kill...
