Call the Wild Hunt, at inferior, says this: [ani][pro] For the remainder of combat, this vampire is immune to frenzy cards. A vampire may play only one Call the Wild Hunt each combat. If my opponent plays Drawing Out the Beast, can I play Call the Wild Hunt in response, to be immune to the DotB effects? If my opponent plays Rotschreck, can I play Call the Wild Hunt in response, to be immune to the Rotschreck effects?

I would imagine it would be rather hard to play rotschreck pre-range....

No. http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad/msg/8291216bbd5e3c21 > If my opponent plays Rotschreck, can I play Call the Wild Hunt in > response, to be immune to the Rotschreck effects? No, for two reasons: 1) as above. 2) CtWH cannot be played after combat ends, and Rötschreck ends combat.

I did a search for any cards that inflict damage before range is determined and couldn't come up with anything other than Weather Control. As we all know, WC can become aggravated under the effects of Dawn Operation, but I'm quite sure that it counts as environmental damage and thus does not meet the "when an opposing minion attempts to inflict" text of Rotschreck. But in response to Josh's original question, I think the the answer is "NO" for Rotschreck (if such a thing were possible) because the effect resolves before the oppurtunity to play another card arises, and "YES" for DotB/similar because it sets up a lingering effect that the playing vampire can become immune to.

Oops. Looks like LSJ and i were posting at the same time, and his post was shorter. > > If my opponent plays Drawing Out the Beast, can I play Call the Wild > > Hunt in response, to be immune to the DotB effects? > > No. > http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad/msg/8291216bbd5e3c21 Interesting. At least it's nice to know that my incorrect "ruling" was in line with the way the rules would have been prior to the linked reversal. > > If my opponent plays Rotschreck, can I play Call the Wild Hunt in > > response, to be immune to the Rotschreck effects? > > No, for two reasons: > > 1) as above. > 2) CtWH cannot be played after combat ends, and Rötschreck ends > combat. Eh. 1 out of 2 ain't all bad. Just half bad.
