hi. this situation came up in JOL:
seterpenre does a d action at +1 stealth
khalil wakes and blocks with +1 intercept from KRCG
seterpenre plays faceless night
khalil plays pseudo-blindness cancelling it
seterpenre plays lost in crowds
joaquina wakes and attempts to play pseudo-blindness too.
can she?
what if she "attempts to block" (failing because she doesn't have the
intercept)? can she then play pseudo-blindness and khalil can still try to
block?
thanks!
neil

card text:
Pseudo-Blindness [FN:C2, LotN:PR2]
Cardtype: Reaction
Cost: 1 blood
Discipline: Chimerstry
[chi] Only usable by a vampire attempting to block. Cancel an action
modifier that requires Chimerstry [chi] or Obfuscate [obf] as it is played.
[CHI] As above, and if this vampire successfully blocks this action, the
acting minion cannot use cards that require Chimerstry or Obfuscate during
the resulting combat.

Well, you can use a Wake affect and then use a card that would cancel
a card as it is played, but there is no precedent for whether you can
attempt to block in between that, that I know of (though I do not see
a problem with it).

If she can attempt to block and then play Psuedo-Blindness then yes,
after failing, Khalil can re-attempt to block.

No. Khalil is attempting to block, not Joaquina.

After Khalil's block attempt fails, Joaquina could make an attempt, sure. During
that attempt, if Seterpenre plays a suitable card, Joaquina could cancel it with
Psuedo-Blindness. And then, if Joaquina's block attempt fails, Khalil could make
another attempt, sure.

Just for rock solidness:
Khalil attempts at +1 cept, cancels faceless, fails to block due to
LiC.
Joaquina now attempts, may she cancel the LiC?

Yes, there is that. Shouldn't try answering these things so drunk, my
own post showed that Joaquina couldn't have done it, sheesh.

And in this situation, Khalil would still have the +1 intercept from
the KRCG, right? That is, transient intercept lasts until the end of
the action, not the end of the block attempt, right?

Nah, he was faking it.
