How exactly does Rötschreck work? There is a dispute among local players over here. -- Jens Niemann "Never attempt to reason with people who know they are right." http://wwwcip.rus.uni-stuttgart.de/~lrt10398

Errata'ed card text: "Play on a vampire that attempts to inflict aggravated damage in combat. Combat ends, and that vampire goes into torpor. During the vampire's controller's next untap phase, burn this card instead of untapping the vampire." Note that "inflict" only includes strikes and other effects that say that the minion "inflicts" the damage (like Pulled Fangs). (Note: a recent Rulings Summary listed Pulled Fangs as not being counted by Rotschreck - this is an error). Environmental damage (from Retainers or Weather Control, for example) doesn't qualify. -- L. Scott Johnson (vte...@wizards.com) Official VtES Net.Rep for Wizards of the Coast.
