Yet another in the series of questions while Josh sorts his booster box... Eyes of the Beast [KoT:C] Cardtype: Reaction Discipline: Protean [pro] +1 intercept, and put this card on this reacting vampire. This vampire gets -1 stealth. Burn this card during your next discard phase. [PRO] As above, with an optional maneuver during the first round of the resulting combat if this vampire successfully blocks. If a vampire plays this at superior, and the card is still on him when he blocks another action, does he get an optional maneuver in the resulting combat of this new block? (Superior does not say "if this vampire successfully blocks _this action_" and one could read it as similar to Corpse Balloon, etc.)

No. [ quoted text not captured ]

[ quoted text not captured ] Just to check, this is why? The text states only if he successfully blocks, and does not state anything about which action. The resulting combat is one resulting from the succesful block, and says nothing about it being the combat from when this card is played..... This would also make the card strong, and very, very playable.....

It's a matter of what the "As above, with..." modifies. If it modifies the +1 intercept, you get my answer. If it modifies the "This vampire gets" part, you get the other alternative. Clearly, it goes with the +1 intercept bit.
