The Niefel Build that I just won with was an imprisoned, E9N9 Cyclops.
A few points in his merit:
1) An E9 pretender will enable you to take, and keep, the Forge.
2) A N9 pretender will enable you to take, and keep, the Gift of Health and the Gift of Nature's Bounty.
The N9 bless means your Giants seldom run - and thus can generally kill fear-causing SC pretenders, otherwise a significant weakness.
The E9N9 bless together also provides 4 points of reinvig and +*6* protection.
Quick strategy advice - recruit a bunch of Niefel Giants. WHenever you have money, recruit a niefel jarl.
Pick two of your weak neighbors, kill them.
Get Wolven Winter as soon as you can. Another key spell is Freezing Mist, which is your most efficient means of popping GLamour.
Make friends with your other neighbors - promise them the world if need be, but you don't want to fight more than 2 players at once, especially strong opponents.

I've never felt that the extra 9th point was worth it. I think you'd do just fine with N8E8. The difference is 2 points of protection, I believe, which is marginally important compared to the extra points you'll get back from not upgrading those levels.
I almost always pick 8th level blesses.
